Default Thoughts on "the others" twist?

What are your thoughts on the two house twist, involving "the others"?

I only like it because it gives me Lost teas Other than that, there really isn't a lot to go for me to think if it'll be good or not. (Unless I'm missing something... is this about Rylan's tweet?)

I'm very 'meh' with it tbh. All that hype of "the game changing" and "evolving the show for a new generation" for that twist. Don't get me wrong, it sounds interesting, but there's a couple of things that are confusing me about it:

A) How is it going to be secret when the second house will be staring the main housemates in the face on launch night?

B) How is this meant to evolve the show? This isn't the sort of twist that can be repeated over and over.

If they are a bunch of Ex on the Beach and TOWIE "stars" involved then disappointed but it could work.

You know what 'The Others' sounds like to me, but isn't probably what they mean? Ghosts, dead people (evicted). Evicted Housemates go to the 'Graveyard' which is the second house.

I really hope it isn't that though. That'd remove the entire point of evicting.

"The housemates live in the Big Brother house but they will have no idea of the dark and ominous force that is only metres away. In The Other House, The Others will be conspiring to target and take down the housemates as they attempt to steal their place in the Big Brother House; and secure a chance of winning the £100,000 prize fund.

But this is Big Brother and what you see isn't always what you get. Neither the housemates nor The Others are aware that some of them are already connected to each other.

And these connections could turn both houses upside down. But what are these connections and how will Big Brother use them to keep everyone on their toes?"

What was one of the worst things about last year's series?

"4 in 4 out a couple of weeks in"

Ok, so what do you have planned this year?

"Evicting 8 people on day 4"

Wait, that's the official twist? Oh, nevermind then what I said.

This sounds fun in theory, but I have a worry it's going to be like the 'In and Out' twist and we'll end up losing good housemates to not so good ones. I won't judge it until it plays out though. The idea of two houses competing against eachother in like a Turf War sounds really exciting.
