Wow, the inside of the house looks like the inside of a barren space ship like in some of the video games I have played. Now BB should add some scary space monsters. OH wait...That would be the housemates...LOL

I've only followed the daily shows for a couple of seasons now. But it sucks for the fans who would watch the live feeds. I just can't imagine if they did that to BBUSA!

I'm so excited about another season of BBUK! :-)

My guess is the Sunday show now will be a live "last chance to get in" task- I suspect out of the 16, at most 14 make it in...

I can watch 1-1.30pm, so if they give any details on the rules for the first three days I will try to post them.

Pretty exciting!

Wilson, from what I read (just rumour) yesterday they do actually have to pass the tests to continue, it's not just the one who performed the worst overall or anything. They could lose half the cast! I wonder how many standby hms they have waiting!

If anyone is on Twitter, Davina is @ThisisDavina and she's posting the odd silly, like photos of her outside the house and her choice of clothes for tonight.

Davina's on! Confirmed none of the people going in are definite housemates.

Says kaleidoscope of housemates. 16 of them.

When BB called them to tell them they'd made it they were all told they were going into the house tonight, but not that they were hms. They have to earn the hm status and it won't be easy.

The house available to them is just one room with crates and barrels. A phone is there but she's hinting about whether they should answer it or not.

There is a garden too, more crates.

HM1 is Freddie, 23. Oxford graduate. Says he's privileged. Tory but anarchist at heart. Musician. Has had serious girlfriends but decided it was time to be a playboy! Crowd is booing but I think he's ok.

In the house Freddie goes straight to the phone but no one answers. Saying it's brilliant. He found the toilet so at least they have one of those!

HM2 is Lisa, 41, unemployed. Punkish, with earrings and mohawk. Lesbian. Says she has no education but goes out to get what she wants. Says she's a devil. Sounds like audience are going to boo everyone, although more cheers for her than for Freddie.

HM3 is Sophie, 20, model. Has done playboy. Bimbo archetype. Says she has to pretend to be nice then stab them in the back. 30GG as of six weeks ago. Gulp. Big boos from audience.

When Sophie got inside she didn't seem so airheaded and they were all chatting relatively(!) normally.

HM4 is Kris, 24 "Visual merchandiser"??? "Knows" he's goodlooking. Has a few relationships with women, one who takes him shopping, one who buys the food, one on his arm.... Not liking him so far but I expect it's all front. Boos of course. Few screams. I think he thinks he's Russell Brand.

Chat in the house is still reasonably normal.

HM5 is Noirin, 25, retail manager. Also thinks she's "fit." Religious, parents religious. But also saying she's an exhibitionist and says if she wants to walk around naked and you can't hack it that's your problem. Boos, again, of course. More boos than for Kris.

Noirin is really pretty, I think Sophie might not be that pleased to see her. Kris is preening!

HM6 is Cairon, 18, Student. American accent. Says he's not a follower, says he's attractive. Used to chat up women in US but doesn't here because people always talk about his accent instead. Shades of that guy Science(?) from a few seasons ago. Mixed reception from audience.

Davina is surprised they're not talking about the lack of other rooms.

And I have to go! Anyone around to spoil the rest?

Thanks for the info, Kitt and Christiii. On the site you gave, Christiii, the chatters are saying the feeds will be live until 8:00 AM tomorrow morning. No idea what time that is here.

What happened to the Kris guy? From what I could understand on BigMouth, he wouldn't do what they asked to become a permanent HG..something about permanent marker on their bodies? I couldn't quite get what Davina was saying. Is he or is he not a permanent HG? Anyone know?

I couldn't find the Youtube of him entering the house, but boy did his eyes light up when Noirin entered the house. I have to agree with you, Kitt. She's very beautiful.

Oh..also, Davina said "Tragic" (in Tragic or Magic) for both Sophie and Kris, so does that mean they don't make it or is it something else entirely?

I almost forgot this was starting, lol. I haven't watched it yet, but the following channel has the launch show up already and I also noticed it has two pre-shows, one which Davina hosted. Is that really Davina's twitter page, if yes, did she say she would be using it this season? Thanks :-) Here's the link.

Yes, that's Davina's real twitter. I wasn't sure at first but she showed us her choice of dresses a few hours before the show started, and when it started she was wearing one of them!

I won't have a chance to check the youtubes for a while, but whoooooooa at the post at Digital Spy! Someone was called to the diary room, Rodrigo went, and they told him he had to have someone allow him to shave off their eyebrows and draw a fake moustache on them with permanent marker!! He chose Noirin, she agreed and those two are now the first two real hms.

Cricket - maybe what you heard was Kris saying no, so Rodrigo went on to ask Noirin??

Lisa also is a real hm because she picked up the phone when it rang.

OK, I can't resist watching the rest of the show!

For completeness (and because it takes me ages to remember names), these are the other housemates:

HM7 is Angel, 35, boxer and artist (female), in 1992 was a rock star in her country, Russia. She's doing a pantomime thing on her way in and the audience aren't enjoying it.... some are shouting "off off off off!"

HM8 is Karly, 21, unemployed. Says shes a b word that rhymes with witch. Says she's hot and guys will love her. Likes well groomed men as she knows they have money. Loves attention.

HM9 is Marcus, 35, Window fitter. His face hair is like Wolverine and he's a bit of a comic buff. Says he's a trendsetter, cool. Hmmm not sure I entirely agree but the crowd seem to like him.

HM10 is Beinazir, 28, receptionst who's a Pakistani Muslim. Says she's an alpha-female, doesn't like it when men think they're God. Not scared to talk her mind.

Lisa had to pick the next HM and she picked Kris
so there are 4 HMs now.

HM11 is Sophia, 26, banking assistant. She's tiny and giggly. Fun loving, fierce, feisty. She actually seems pretty nice. Entering the house she is tiny - 4ft 11! Crowd seem to like her. Ok, her giggling could become irritating...

HM12 is Rodrigo, 23, student. Says he's a positive person, from San Paolo, Brazil. Bisexual. Very smiley and likeable. Crowd mostly cheers.

HM13 is Charlie, 22, job centre adviser. Gay, flirts with everyone. Can't sit still, says his mind's always ticking. People think he loves himself but really he just doesn't care what people think. I think he'll be likeable too.

HM14 is Saffia, 27, dental nurse, says she's not a nice person(!). Takes instant dislike to people and then doesn't want to know them. Has a girl aged 6 and a baby. Crowd a bit booey.

HM15 is Sree, 25, Student Union rep. From India, in UK for his masters. Likes his parents. A lot. Crowd like him.

HM16 is Siavash, 23, event organiser. I think he said "Saudi model" too. Iranian. Said he's uniquely good looking (your mileage may vary on that, I know mine did). Crowd boos.

And of course every time I said HM I should have said non-HM. Davina says over the next few days BB will give them a series of challenges, and if they pass the challenge they will become a full housemate.

And at the end of the show they show Rodrigo going into the DR and being told about the eyebrow shaving task. He's been told they're not HMs yet. (Rodrigo's a sweetie.) The volunteer has to redraw the glasses and moustache on themselves with the permanent marker every day "for the foreseeable future!" (If they have to do that they might as well draw back the eyebrows!) He has four minutes to do it... lots of discussion about who's going to do it and Noirin says she will. She says she's happy to draw them on. Not sure if he told her about the permanent marker. Rodrigo's offering to do his to match (aww).

Rodrigo and Noirin also now get access to the proper bedroom straight away, instead of having to sleep in the main room!

Davina says on Sunday you can vote for the remaining non-HMs you want to turn into HMs. She didn't say how many.

~~~
And apparently Lisa chose Kris to be a real HM so now there are four.

More first night tricks, after Rodrigo and Noirin were made hms, the others were given small bags and told to swap what they were wearing for what was in the bag. If they didn't do it they would lose their right to become a proper hm. Some bags just had a vest and y-fronts. I guess the girls got something a little more.

The Ch4 website is posting a few updates (not many) and their videos do play here although you have to sit through adverts each time.

If some sweet mod (grovel grovel) happens to pass by then there are some housemate pictures here:

that would look very pretty in a banner

Oh, http://twitter.com/officialbb are also doing twitter updates. So far it's not very interesting! (They have staff to do this but not do live feed??)

I'm going to stop posting now, honest.

Thanks for the runthrough Kitt. =)

Kris looks like Dale with an afro. XD At least, that's what it looks like on the JustinTV link. He even sounds like him! "I am errrrrm, a visual designer!"

Looking forward to the show being uploaded on to YouTube. I intend on catching this from the get-go this time! =D

Thanks Kitt for all the info, it looks like it will be a very interesting season so far

The channel I left above has, along with launch night, a bunch of live feed clips being added. Here is the video list for that channel:

Does anyone know the status of BBLB or BBBM? Thank you.

BBBM hosted by Davina was on tonight but kind of boring - shown on justin tv. BBLB is on tomorrow night according to the commercials. Is that what you wanted to know?
