BB House

Pictures released, it looks great as ever. The series begins on Tuesday at 9pm on Channel 5.

The big twist of course is that there are TWO houses, a main house and a house for “The Others”, housemates that are scheming to take the place of people in the main house (as only main housemates can win). The Others have existing connections with many of the main housemates, although apparently neither will be aware of each other’s existence initially, although I’m intrigued by how far they can take it – it’s not like the massive two-tier house extension will go unnoticed. Is there more in the way of strategy coming?

I’m also intrigued to see what if anything they’ll do with the extension when Celebrity Big Brother begins after this run. They’ve done initial house splits before but they only tend to last a few days.

The show is launching against an already running Love Island which has been holding up pretty well for ITV2 (this is the opposite of last year) and the Cameron vs Farage Referendum debate, so some interesting numbers to look out for on Wednesday.

BBUK tends to not care about other countries’ versions, but in Germany we had at least one series with two houses and it lasted for about 20% of the entire series length. Afterwards it was used once in the way the “secret rooms” in the UK version was used in the last years (fake eviction), which was actually a surprise as everyone thought the set was already taken down. But it was, as always, just a gimmick for the beginning.

I think they’ve done two houses in Australia as well.

No chance anyone thinking it’s coming down midrun here I don’t think.
