some less good news

[DigitalSid]

I heard a few weeks back that BB hadn't got the George Lucas Stage this year and were instead using the old BB6-CBB5 big mouth studio and setting up some portacabins around the house, looks like it was true:

Wonder whether that means only the one spin-off?

George Lucas is taking part in BB? :confused:

Why does this matter?

They haven't got the massive George Lucas sound stage for the BBLB and eviction studio anymore, just one of the old big mouth workshops.

[DigitalSid]

Why does this matter?

Because it means they've got a MUCH smaller studio.

They only used a small part of the george lucas building anyway for the bblb studio/small interview room and the technical sh!t like the diary room.

When i was on bblb they gave us a tour back stage and the diary room is just a plywood box with a mic lol.

The big mouth studio is right next to it and seeing as bbbm aint coming back it would make sense to just use this for evictions

It was used for BBLB, evictions, the psychology spin-offs and last year the monitor room and big mouth studio.

The psychology spin offs havnt been on air for 5 years lol.

Big mouth aint coming back either so they dont need all that space.

This aint bad news its just good sense.

The monitor room can be put elsewhere and bblb and eviction studio can fit elsewhere easily. The big mouth studio only contained portable set pieces which they can change to make it look different for evictions.

Have you ever been in the studios?

Oh and that pic isnt very clear cant make out what your pointing out?

[King Gizzard]

Interviews aren't really THAT important to me anyway..tis all about the house

[Jords]

1 spin-off will do if its good.

Pfft.

Go look at BB3 the interviews were the best part of the week.

Interviews in later years sucked

[BringItOn]

Really not fussed :)

[DigitalSid]

I know, I was pointing out how much space their loosing and how they do put it to good use some years.

It wasn't their choice to leave it, as I said, Elstree rented it out to film companies. It's been a bigger inconvenience than you think for them hence the makeshift portacabins set up around the compound which apparently are going to have to be fenced off from the rest of the studios.

Oh and that piv is sh!t cant make out what your pointing out?

From what I've heard their moving to the old Russell Brand big mouth workshop, which will only host both bblb and evictions if they use the same space like last year.

[DigitalSid]

1 spin-off will do if its good.

Still a step down though, coming from a converted workshop rather than the largest studio in the country.

I really dont think anyone care.

Aslong the the studios look good on cam thats all that matters

[Jordan.]

Its probably a good thing having a small studio anyway a sign that they'll just be sat talking about BB again not wondering all over playing games.

Fair enough.

As I said though BB do, it's been a big inconvenice for them.

The title was just a reference to the "some good news" thread.

[CharlieO]

I just want it to start already instead of all these inconsistent rumours coming out :(

[DigitalSid]

Hadn't though of that, they'll have to just show VTs and do the odd interview and mini game now like the first few series when BBLB was in that glorified broom cupboard.

[DigitalSid]

The house now being fenced off will probably mean less chance of locals taking pics like the above next year. So we'll probably have to wait for official ones and aerial star ones from now on.

[happybbfan]

BBLB back to the good old days with no silly games now thats the good news story here.

[Shaun]

yes...this is much less good.

The bblb studio was tiny

The first aerial shots are when the pre-series speculation kicks into overdrive.

Shots of portacabins won't do it.

I meant shots of the house, not the portacabins. Before, locals would go and have a look and see if builders were at the house and what structural changes had been made when there was news, they probably won't be able to that next year as the site appears to be fenced off, just pointing it out that's all.

As I said the title's not completely serious, just a reference to the "some good news :)" thread title, but it seems to have been lost on most here.

[DigitalSid]

Indeed, but the show was better.

You need a holiday mate

[DigitalSid]

You need a holiday mate

Irony ^

It's a pretty significant story (The fact that the show has moved studio and had to set up it's own fenced off production village), the show has been inside the George Lucas Stage since BB3.

[Lostie!]

Not really awful news :D

[DigitalSid]

Not really awful news :D

Again, never said it was, when I posted this there was a thread called "some good news :)" so I thought I'd name this the opposite as it's not really good news.

You need sedation.
