Wow! If this is the next a final twist Arnie has in store for us, I must say I am severly underwhelmed.

Bringing someone from the outside in could be interesting. Bringing someone in that is a total unknown to 99.9999% of the USA TV audiance is nothing short brain flatulence.

Sounds like he would match the other HG tho. Boring.

Why Gos?
Nice enough bloke, however he was such a non-entity in the UK house.
Bit like a Koala Bear - he slept 18hrs a day :(

Agree with Sag, a boring twist for a boring BB, in fact this year BB stands for BIG BORE!!

Gos is a 31 year of Indian heritage (the country that is), a chef, not a pretty boy, seems to have a lot of sophistication

Keep in mind the likely reason for this is boosting ratings in the UK -- this is a new source of gravy income for Arnold Shapiro, and having a BB UK HG on the show should help the broadcasts there

But the guy is going to walk in and the HGs are going to be "Who the F are you?!"

Gos will reply
`leave it man`

thats all he ever said :(

You are probably right Sean. However, it does seem like they would at least pick a UK person that the UKers found interesting. I certainly would not be compelled to watch at UK BB that hosted someone like Nate.

But any new blood (not necessarily as a competitor, but as something new to talk about) will be welcome.
BB UK is a much bigger deal than BB US; just the comparing notes on the programs will keep them busy for days.
But I agree this is no big deal for us regular viewers.

Has anyone been able to confirm this? At least the name of the paper the article was supposed to have come from? My hope is that this is as real as the '2 additional feeds from the eviction house' hoax. Please say it ain't so!

Will he stay, or just come in and direct the competition and then leave?

If this is true I wonder if he will only be there for that one day or is he staying for a while ?

Why in the world would they pick Gos?? All he did was read and sleep! Ugh, I don't think this BB can get any worse.

If he stays, can you just SEE the tension between Gos (a chef) and Jun (the self-nominated cook in the house). Ooh la la!!! Fireworks!!!

Other than that... yawn. I don't know who he is, I doubt if the HGs do. I find it interesting, though, that the "news" came from the other side of the pond. Was that an intentional leak by ASP, d'ya think?

If this is true, then I must ask how have the producers gone so wrong this year? It's just one disaster after another.

Why not bring back Marcellas. Now that would be interesting.

Seanflynn2003

I don't disagree Catkey but the ratings are as good as the show has ever had, so in their minds they have to be pleased

oops, meant Ocean

I`ve been searching through the UK papers
- can`t find any reference to confirm this at all !

How boring? You know I even stated in a post before it would be great to see Amy and Marcellas back in the house but honestly it would probably not be a good idea because I don't forsee any of the hgs really connecting to with A & M. Remember we loved them as a team all by themselves not because of their interaction with the other hgs.
I would say it would probably be better to have Roddy or Dani in the house...ohh it be nice to have them in there together.

Maybe the producers could do better than Gos--but they could certainly do worse.

If this is true it absolutely does not qualify as a twist. To me a twist adds or changes a fundamental element of the game to something unexpected. If Gos is just going to conduct an already expected competition--though the comp itself may be more involved than normal--and the end result for the winner is not different, then there is no twist.

Now if Gos were to stay for a week, then I might begin to consider it as a twist of sorts. I also would love to see a territorial battle in the kitchen.
