Banner suggestions!!

[kaphc]

Well I am lucky enough to be off to the final on Friday to be in the crowd. :thumbs::thumbs:

Of course, a really big, witty banner is required to get a good viewpoint and be seen. I am having real problems deciding what to put on the banner though! Also, although I am pro-Kate, the people I am going with all support different housemates.

So .... does anyone have any ideas as to what to put on the banner? Something that won't take up toooo much creativity / time and maybe is general and funny and will go down well with everyone? :xyxwave::xyxwave:

Look forward to hearing your ideas. :flower::flower:

[Janette]

Ooh lucky you Kaphc!!!!!!!!!!


I wish I was going :bawling:


How about "thisisbigbrother.com/forums" (bit of harmless plugging wouldn't do any harm!) :laugh:

[WILDCHILD]

Oh, you are sooooo lucky kaphc!:colour: I hope you have a good time, it would be a dream for me to go to the BB final.
I will put my thinking cap on for you!:conf::flower::conf:

[Princess Pink Pants]

when will you be starting a thread to get tickets for the final eviction?
Hi Princess.
We never said for certain that we would be having finals tickets. We were hoping that our final ticket allocation would be the same as that for all other weeks, but unfortunatelyit it wasn't. We have been limited to 4 tickets and they have already been allocated so we have none spare.

I'm sorry about this, but we did say all along that we had lots of tickets for earlier evictions and we were hoping to be able to offer some for the final.

:flower:

[Princess Pink Pants]

Who were the tickets given to?

How else can I get tickets?

I e-mailed the company that provides the tickets right at the beginning and got a reply saying they'd e-mail me soon abou tickets, but I never heard from them, so I e-mailed them again and have had no reply!

How do you get tickets?

[LEE]

The only place you can get tickets from is from the ticketing agency Powerhouse. I would be very surprised if they have any tickets left at this late stage, but you could always ring them on 020 7240 2828.

:flower:

[Princess Pink Pants]

Thats who I e-mailed! Powerhouse!

Literally RIGHT at the very beginning!


Who got the TiBB tickets?

[LEE]

Previous competition winners

[Princess Pink Pants]

I didnt know you'd already done competitions for the final tickets!!!

How come I didnt know?

Was it while I was on holiday? :bawling:

[Janette]

how about some banner suggestions like Kaphc asked for!

This is turning into a thread on "Why haven't I got a ticket"


Ok Kaphc, here's a couple for you but they've probably already been done!

Bring Back the frogs!

Sophie dump Lee before it's too late!

I was only wondering when the competition to win tickets for the final was coz I missed it, but if it was while I was on holiday then I dont mind coz it was the best holiday ever!

Well what I can remember of it anyway!



I cant think of any good banner suggestions! Im rubbish at that kind of thing!

Who has previously won captions comps? They R the people to ask!

Thats the only suggestion I can come up with!

Just an idea :thumbs:

Mark :colour:

[Mairi]

Love it, Mark but I think it would take poor kaphc until 2003 to complete it!!

:joker:

[purplequeen]

how bout make bb4 better

[Princess Pink Pants]

I like Marks & Purplequeens ideas!!! V. good!

[Oldgit]

Have you noticed that all their initials are top playing cards?

J (Jack or Joker) K (King) A (Ace) so perhaps we could do a design with Jonny as the Joker (of course) and the other three as cards.

Look I'm only the ideas guy, not the artist!

[Janette]

Oldgit, you're a genius!!!!!!!!!!

Kaphc, I hope you can draw well!

[Princess Pink Pants]

Thats an absolutely amazing idea but I think you'd need a good artist and a lot of time!

I dont know exactly how it would work either, I havent got a pack of cards handy at the mo!

[kaphc]

Oh my God! (as Helen would say). That is such a good idea Oldgit. :hello::hello::helen:

The best I could come up with so far was

"This is Big Brother. Comprendez?" which at least was something to do with our site.

I can see I am going to have to get some big pictures off the Internet now! I don't know how good my drawing skills are but I think it's worth giving it a go.

J - Jonny the Joker
K - Kate the King
A - Alex the Ace
J - Jade the Jack

Does that sound right??

It might be a case of scanning some playing cards at high res, substituting the faces, and doing a banner print so that several A4 sheets can be stuck together to form the poster. That sounds quicker than drawing it! You need the right software to do the part-pages.

[Mairi]

It was a brilliant idea, Oldgit. Congratulations.

Good luck kaphc. I'll be looking out for your banner.

Have a great time and don't forget to give us all a wave.

:wavey:

[monty_parrot]

here's one...



...ALEX YOU BORE ME...SHUT UP!

Can I withdraw my original suggestion in favour of monty_parrot's?

[kaphc]

No Oldgit, you can't! I've started on the cards now .... !!

The Alex one is nearly done - it is the Ace of Spades with a big picture of Alex in the middle.

I have changed Jade and Jonny round so that Jade is the joker and Jonny is the jack, it seems to fit better.

We'd better get near the front after all this!!!

:bouncy::bouncy::bouncy::bouncy:

[Amy]

I will be looking out for this banner tommorow so hold it high :thumbs:
:dance::elephant::dance::elephant::dance::elephant :
Oh my god it's nearly eviction night!!!!!
:thumbs::dance::elephant::dance::elephant::hello:

[kaphc]

The banners are now complete. I am at work at the moment, and they are all up on the windowsill behind where I sit.

I was hoping to take a photo of them this morning with the work digital camera but it is off site at the moment. Hopefully I will get a photo of them at some stage. I hope even more that you will see them all tonight!!

They go as follows:

Alex - Ace of spades, big picture of Alex in the middle of the spade
Jade - Joker, her face with a jester's hat and a kind of jester's ruff
Kate - King of Diamonds, her wearing her England t-shirt and a caption saying "Diamond Bird"
Jonny - Jack of clubs with him in his stripey black and white top and a caption saying "Heart of Gold" (he should have been the Jack of Hearts, not the Jack of clubs but I doubt anyone will notice!

They are all on yellow A1-sized mounting board. So now you know what to look out for!

[Kaz]

:dance: :dazzler: :dance: The banner sounds fantastic, kaphc! :dance: :dazzler: :dance:

Have a fantastic night tonight - I'll be keeping my eyes peeled to spot you in the crowd. :thumbs:



:hello: :hello: Alex to Win! First In ..... Last Out:hello: :hello:

[steve_o]

They sound great, I'll be looking out for them, Jonny as the Jack of clubs is ok, Jack of Night Clubs. :dance: :dance: :elephant: :elephant:

:spin:

:bouncy: :bouncy: :bouncy:

[Princess Pink Pants]

I didnt see it anywhere! I was looking closely!

Will U be able to post a pic of it? It sounds really good!

How close to the front were U?

They said that sum people camped overnight to be at the front! I dont understand that though, I mean if they go off to the toliet they wouldnt be able to get back to the front would they?
And they cant hold it in for 24hours!
Or do the first people there get allocated a front spot?

*confused*

[kaphc]

I will be able to post pictures of them at some point, but wait for it - get this - Jonny saw the banner I had done of him and asked for security to get it for him. So it was passed through and he took it with him!!!

I watched the shows this morning on video and the banners were there a few times. We were near the studio about 3 from the front and could see loads. The best shots to spot them on are when Jade and Alex came out as they were filmed going past us. Remember they are A1 size and on yellow card and that will help.

When Jonny came out, C4 were on an ad break when he came past and Kate didn't come past until right at the end after the show had finished.

It was an amazing night though and I'm still on a high this morning!! :hello: :hello: :hello:

[Amy]

I saw the banners :thumbs: :hello: :thumbs: :hello: :thumbs:
They were very good Kaphc WELL DONE :hello: :hello: :hello: :wavey:

[Princess Pink Pants]

On the subject of banners, in the Daily Mail today there was a pic of Jade when she left the house and in the background there is a banner saying

'Jade did U get mayo in your kebab?!'

HOW RUDE!!!!!!!
