Yeah come to think of it idk why I thought they'd axe any leaked HMs, I guess I'm just too wrapped up in production being so classic this time

And you're right, pretty much all the ones that got leaked before launch were Z-Listers that had done TV before, like Lateysha, Natalie, Sue, Chanelle, Kayleigh, Lotan, Ellie etc.

Couple of other things before I sign off for the night. I don’t work on BOTS however I actually shared an office with the BOTS booking dept (for guests on the show) and we have a blacklist of ex housemates who are banned from appearances on the show.

I can’t remember all of them, there’s around 50 all in all, including...
Aisleyne,
Bea,
Sree,
Shabaz,
Lea,
Brian Belo,
Sezer.

Oh and as for why Roderigo was ejected, even I can’t go into that, it’s a big legal thing, he didn’t do anything illegal or anything like that, it’s a lot more complicated than you could imagine, we screwed up at B.B. and so did he.

Rylan was going to be in the main house show, but was found out before and soo kicked off... but yes that was years back... Maybe they dont care anymore...

I would say its suspicious that this person writes at 3 am.. but maybe thats to stop the post from being taken down as BB producers will only check day time... I dont know?

You got any tea on voting percentages or production secrets?

[Oaker]

Wait yeah if you're real just spill all the TEA we want to know

Not really much on voting percentages. One interesting production secret about civi B.B. is that in regards to the cameras in the toilets, although footage is recorded, it is not normally shown constantly on the gallery screens unless it is used for the highlights show. You actually have to swipe a key card with a special level of authorisation to access loo cameras lol. Also, and you will all hate this, occasionally on civi and celebrity B.B., we do occasionally have task team members come into the house and explain the task to the housemates and in some cases, guide them on anything funny or controversial they could potentially do to spice things up, this is rare however, I hear they did this often during power trip.

I was told that he did something with bodily fluid... but maby he threatend to sue if they aired it , and maybe there was a floor with his contract saying that BB should not show something if it will runiun his career... I don't know that's the only thing that I can think... that could mix him doing something bad and there being a legal disspite... if true! eg BB should of worded the contract in a different way maybe to allow the footage to be aired?

Loo cameras... Now I know your lieing... loo cameras dont exist! they band them years ago as too many people like me refuse to go into the house as they dont want people to watch them sitting on the toilet.... they have mics in there but that's it... Ive done the research on this as I would not go in if there's cameras in the toilet...

They’ve always had toilet cameras for civilian, it’s just celebs they don’t have them for .

We have to have loo camera’s. It’s considered to much of a risk for civi housemate safety to have an space in which can’t be monitored by production.

As I say, I don’t know much about CBB. What I do know is that there was a clause in Kirstie’s contract that she be allowed contact via telephone with a Scientology auditor (whatever that means) 24/7

Would never happen, it’s not as if you can just sneak off and go view them privately.

A distressed housemate goes into a bathroom, if we didn’t have cameras we wouldn’t know if they were going in there to do their business, or going in there go cause themselves harm. It’s about our duty of care.

If this is real then I'm perched

I don't believe this.., this would only make me feel paranoid like someone is enjoying doing something thing that I don't want to do...

Its maybe a good thing that Im not going in after all... as I wont be staying long if they insist on saying this crap... housemates are adults not kids, they don't need monitoring when on the toilet! to do so is to treat them like a child who can not control themselves.

also ... being watched when crying in the toilet would only make me want to commit harm to the-myself! as people who cry in bathroom do it to get away from people..

[studio1insider]

Also, and I’m not 100% sure on this as it’s only a story that flies round production every now and then. But apparently, and I have it on good authority, Aisleyne from BB7 almost never made it as a housemate as 15 mins before the show went live and she found out she would be a late entry coming into the house in a box, she went mad and nearly quit, saying she was terrified of small spaces

PAHAHAHAHA

[Jøsh]

Do you know if the second house is gonna be used during the series?

[studio1insider]

^^ yes, it will be used on launch.

[studio1insider]

Ooh and the twist for power trip was originally that the series was going to follow the American format. Channel 5 we’re actually keen on it, however Endemol stopped them doing it as Channel 5’s contract with EN prevented them from making serious format changes.

do you know what the civilian eye looks like?
