Why are all these articles saying: The housemates will be greeted by
 

"A huge wall and life size front doors"

Im sorry but aren't doors life size in general? lol

The front doors are usually elephant sized sliding doors. I think it means the door will be a normal human sized door.

I thought it meant doors at the foot of the stairs not the sliding doors they pull aside when the HM finishes waving to the crowd.

i.e. housemates once in the house will be faced with choices of what's behind those doors.

I thought that was an odd thing to say too :laugh:

I would have just assumed the doors to be 'life size' anyway unless they said something like "greeted by comically small doors" or something.

Same it said they would be greeted by lifesize doors as they entered the house, then like two sentences later it said they would be coming swooping stairs into the living area?

No they mean the door inside.

I still don't get that part of the press release :suspect: I seriously hope the stairs are blocked off though as they used to be, but I doubt it

I've got this really bad feeling that the layout won't have changed much

'A HUGE Wall, and LIFE SIZE front doors.'

It simply means the wall is huge, the doors aren't.

They are actual doors, not doors smaller or larger than would normally be used by people.

I imagine it to be something like this

I bet that the doors they are on about resemble this 100%

^ I hope it's not as excessive as that but I do think this 'wall of doors' may be on either the right or left wall as you enter sliding doors at the top of the stairs, with the sweeping staircase still in place (unfortunately :()

Unless when you enter through the front door at the top, instead of going straight down the stairs, you're greeted by a wall of doors and one of those doors opens onto the staircase leading down to the living area?

Quoted for truth... I believe that is exactly what they are getting at...

Like most of you I'm also glad they've brought back the door blocking the staircase... Sadly I think the DR will still be under the stairs...

TBH I think that is the best place for it... I hated in earlier series when HM's would stand and the door trying to listen in on what people were saying in there... To me it really doesn't make sense to move it for the sake of moving it...

I bet the doors aren't as interesting as they seem and are merely the decoration like the snowy mountains and the fish. Like when people decorate a wall in empty picture frames.

The house is merely a backdrop anyways... The only time house fixtures or decor come in to play is if they play a role in a twist... Otherwise the majority of it is just for show...

Uh, yes, and what are we discussing here?

Doors that are being used as part of a twist supposedly. The articles are suggesting housemates will be faced with several doors which they must choose from.

All I'm saying is, is that the articles are suggesting there is some game/twist with doors when the housemates enter, which might turn out to be nothing but decoration.

Why can I actually picture this happening? :bawling: LOL I'll be so pissed off if it turns out to be the case

It's all in how you look at the statement that was made TBH... All the statement is saying is that the doors are meant to signify something... IMO it's not blatantly alluding to the doors being used in a twist at all...

I'm referring to the twist in the show, the show itself is now called Big Brother: Secrets and Lies and something "lies behind" the doors.

Ergo, something more than decoration.

They aren't referring to anything physical I'm sure... It's basically a rhetorical question... They've already explained that the house will be Eco-friendly themed...

That's a fair point but then after 'signify' it does say 'and what lies behind them', implying they do actually exist and they do actually lead somewhere.

Somewhere being in to the house??? @08marsh was trying to say that there's a possibility they will be nothing more than decoration... And all I'm trying to say is that there really isn't anything out there that says they are intended to have any real significance in the first place...

The article that the statement comes from is merely providing a description of the house and reaffirms the series theme... I don't doubt they exist but there is nothing there that says they are anything more than an entry or exit to the house...

Just a design for one of the first walls in the house Im guessing.

That makes no sense, but I won't be repeating myself.
