Since there were no pictures of the garden or bedroom, I went looking but could only find this little bit from a digital spy article:
Producers would not reveal how many beds or bedrooms are in the house and remained tight-lipped about the decor. They also refused to divulge details on the diary room and its iconic chair.
The pool and hot tub have been removed from the garden, with a den - complete with fake fireplace and sofas - taking its place. Producers also revealed that they are "building something quite big" in the garden at the request of one of the celebrity contestants.

Good idea to remove the pool, no one's going to want to go in there in January. Wonder what the structure is. and odd that it's come at a request of one of the housemates. That doesn't seem fair, unless they all have something.
Naja, I'm watching the CBB special you posted - it's excellent quality! I can play it full size and it still looks perfect.

thx Naja I used that site a lot since I seemed to miss a fair number of the shows.
OH and I read this in a prev post a while back Quote Once the show starts if anyone needs the address for the streaming site we can deal with it via private messages.
As long as the broadcaster is aware and has okay'd it. i was in two rooms that ended up changing passwords numerous times because watchers were just giving out the Password and site to anyone who asked.
Sorry to be a grump but I dont want to lose my streams this season.
Last year I ended up with a nonusuable password and since I never Chatted in the chat, No one or the broadcaster knew me. So needless to say, I never got the new one LOL
i had a backup tho. Hopefully it will be going for CBB.

I gave up on that password site, finding the right person on chat was too difficult. The other streaming sites I used didn't have a password though, and were just word of mouth. Hopefully there'll be more of those for CBB as they don't have to commit to such a long run.
The young guy who I think was most people's back up last year is definitely hosting streaming for cbb, he already has his site ready to go. The old link clicks through to a new web address but still works.

Lastest gossip around the boards -
Davina was told she might be able to go in to the house to spend one night, but when she told her husband, he said no! Quote from Davina:
“Because I’m always talking about him ad infinitum in interviews and I always say too much and poor Matthew has to put up with a lot from me. And he said, it’s the one bit I don’t have to share, you sleeping, so I’d rather you didn’t. So I’m not going to. He’s dreamy, what can I say.”

Current rumor is that Vinnie Jones is being offered one million dollars to appear on CBB (not sure why the article gave the fee in dollars - dramatic effect?) and he is seriously considering the offer.
Boy George has said that he will be involved in CBB in some way - most speculation is that he will be involved in a singing task.
Heidi Fleiss asked for a web cam in the house so she could keep an eye on her birds at home. (That's just strange that she would think they would grant that type of request).

Grrr can't bear Vinnie Jones! I can't think why they want him unless they are hoping for sparks to fly. I know they're meant to be making it particularly "hellish" this year, but I hope they let us see some normal non-shouting interaction too.

It has something to do with Paul Gascoigne who is apparently definitely scheduled to go in. Per this article,
"Paul Gascoigne has reportedly had a series of meetings with a psychiatrist to ensure that he can cope with the pressure of appearing on the show. The former England player had his testicles famously grabbed by Vinnie Jones during a football match in 1988.
Producers hope that a reunion between the pair could be a ratings winner for the show."

Oh good grief that is destined for trouble. Sometime around the mid 80s both were big football (soccer) stars. Vinnie was a vicious player, legendary for being carded for nasty tackles and in a game against Gascoigne's team he pulled Gazza's testicles, pretty much crippling him (temporarily). There was another big incident with another player whose name I can't remember, and his knee was hurt so badly he was out of football for months. Then Vinnie started to make money out of it, promoting his nasty play and got disciplinary action and his football career fizzled out. Then he got tough guy roles in movies. But I can never forgive him!
I don't know how much of a ratings winner would be, you have to be old like me to remember it all, and I don't know if the target audience know him except for the odd movie role.
And Gazza has had serious drug and alcohol problems (I mean he was in a bad way, think Lindsay Lohan bad), in fact I thought he was still in rehab, or was out only recently. I can't see him passing a (legitimate) psych test.
I don't want either of them in the house. Save me!

Kitt, one of the articles I read said that Gazza was meeting with psychiatrists to make sure he could handle the pressure of the house. I wondered why that was important - thanks for explaining!

The streaming site I was referring to does not require any password. Its the same young guy that Kitt mentioned. I've used his site for a couple BB's now and it's pretty reliable and doesn't seem to get shut down like a lot of the others (justin.tv) tend to get shut down.
As for the show...wonderful, old 80s footballers and others I've never heard of.

Kitt,
Could you please pm me, also? I saw the new remodeling of the house on Daily Mail online and it looks hot, ha, ha. I am really interested in following this BB, is there a site like Joker's that does the live feed updates?? Thanks!

The Sun newspaper used to do live feed updates. If they do it for this they'll be advertised at this link:
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/big_brother/
Also Digital Spy has them, although not always as they happen:
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/bigbrother/liveupdates/
This year though, I think they are only having a couple of hours of feeds during the day, and then we could see them from late night until early morning, when usually it's pretty boring. I'll find the schedule for this week in a minute.
About to pm you the link to the streaming site now, but he streams the shows, not the live feed.

You're welcome, Christii. Yep, the first show will be everyone entering the house (presuming they're doing it how they've always done it). He usually but not always streams the companion shows too, but if he doesn't we have Naja's great downloads to rely on. And of course because it's streaming his shows aren't wonderful quality, but if you can't wait on eviction night, like me, well, beggars can't be choosers!

Heidi Fleiss and Ivana Trump are rumored to be HM's as well (per The Sun)- and I'd put money Gazza doesn't make it past day 3 or 4 before he has to get pulled out by the psych people (I watched a documentary about him and his problems- really a sad situation, his family isn't really speaking to him anymore)

sorry, thats what I thought you guys were talking about. the shows, the streaming feeds and of course BBLB and Big Mouth.
it really made BBUK way more interesting than USA last season.
DCB was down a number of times during BBUK. He also had to move at one point if I recall.
I'm still holding out that my private room will be streaming. We all are sworn to secrecy so it doesnt get shut down like all the others were.

Now they're saying there's a "loveshack" that the celebs have to find. It looks a bit like a log cabin.
>>> Link to The Sun
They're also saying there will be 10 stars initially and two more will join during the series. These are the ten they say are definitely going in tomorrow (going to spoilerbox it because some might want to wait, but also it might not be correct):
Spoiler
Click below to view spoiler | Vinnie Jones, 44 - footballer/actor
Nicola Tappenden, 27, - Page 3 girl
Alex Reid, 34 - ex of Jordan and cage fighter
Ekaterina Ivanova, 21: ex Ronnie Woods and Russian waitress
Stephen Baldwin, 43 - actor
Stephanie Beacham, 62 - actress
Jonas Altberg, aka Basshunter, 25 - musician (had Tourette's but has it under control as much as is possible)
Ivana Trump, 60 - ex of Donald Trump
Dane Bowers, 30 - pop singer and also an ex of Jordan
Heidi Fleiss, 44 - Hollywood Madam
|
There is someone they have been talking about missing from that list, and I can see why that person might be better as a late or limited time entry.
