are the house pictures late?

[Sawyer]

Have we normally had them by now?

[Jarrod]

Not really. They release them at different times all the time for example the CBB9 house pictures were released two days before launch

[Sawyer]

mann.. genuinely couldn't remember when they're normally released, didn't know they could be that late!!

[Headie]

I hope we get them this weekend.

It would be good to get them tomorrow though, marking exactly 1 week til Launch Night.

[ThisIsNickkk]

Last year, the pictures were publically released on May 25th as the series kicked off on June 5th.

[Jarrod]

Compare these:
CBB8: 11 ‎August ‎2011 and launched on August 18th
CBB9: 03 January 2012 and launched on January 5th
BB13: 25 May 2012 and launched on June 5th
CBB11: 19 ‎December ‎2012 and launched on January 3rd

[Jordan.]

They suck. I miss the days we'd get house trailers.

[ThisIsNickkk]

We may even get them on Friday? We'll have them by Monday at the latest I would imagine.

[Sawyer]

anyway.. I kinda have to go, cheers guys!

#seeyouontheotherside

If that's a hint at what I think it is, good luck mate!

[Headie]

LOL was just wondering that myself... let's all keep our fingers crossed! x

(if it's what I'm thinking)

[Marcus.]

can not wait

[lukee]

doubt it

[Vladimir]

hmmmm is this really happening

[Marcus.]

can not see it

[Marc]

The end is nigh

[joe199998293]

I don't think he will be going in,

[Marc]

No

[ThisIsNickkk]

Doesn't look like we'll be getting the house pics at midnight :( Press would have had something through by now.

[Mrmattybeck]

May get the pics on saturday thats a good day to release them

[Marcus.]

maybe hopefully Saturday

[Glenn.]

I expected them tonight tbh. Only being a week til launch. The housemates must be in hiding now surely.

[Mrmattybeck]

maybe hopefully Saturday

Sounds a good date to launch the pics leading up to the launch:blush:

[Gstar]

Why do I think that Sawyer is a housemate? :laugh:

[joe199998293]

I hope we get them tonight, also wouldn't the housemates be in hiding last Thursday? I think sawyer is one too.

[Gstar]

Omg I think he's a guinea pig

[Gstar]

JEALOUS

[ThisIsNickkk]

Why do I think that Sawyer is a housemate? :laugh:

With his whole #SeeYouOnTheOtherSide business last night?

The pics may well be released to press tomorrow evening to go live at midnight, but if they don't, it'll be Monday evening/Tuesday midnight I think. I doubt the BB press team will send anything out over the weekend.

I hope we get them tonight, also wouldn't the housemates be in hiding last Thursday? I think sawyer is one too.

Nope, apparently they only go into hiding a week in advance now and have done so for quite a few series'. Word on the street is the housemates went into 'hiding' today.

[Jack_]

I'm fed up of waiting for them now :( :(

[Me. I Am Salman]

If the house is spectacular then I may, just MAY forgive them for the eye

[Gstar]

I think they'll be released over the weekend

[Marcus.]

Sounds a good date to launch the pics leading up to the launch:blush:

aye
it the last piece of the puzzle

[JohnnyBB]

TONIGHT!!! PLeaseeeee! If marcus has seen it we should be able to see it now!

[Bigest Brother Fan ever]

[Samm]

I am hoping for a house teaser

[iRyan]

I don't like it when they reveal the house too early, it kills the anticipation. It builds the excitement more if they do it 2-3 days before.

[Sawyer]

Why do I think that Sawyer is a housemate? :laugh:

I was... I was called at lunchtime yesterday to say a decision had been made and I was in the final batch. I went to a hotel in Devon last night where I had my phone and everything taken from me. Anxiety set in and I realised what I had done. I pulled out lunchtime today.. and after a long chat with a producer on skype, the failed to persuade me to stay.

I freaked out. What were the papers saying? What would they say about my family? What would people think of me? I've never had a panic attack in my life, but I had one about one o'clock last night when I realised how cut off from life I actually was, and I wasn't even in the house yet - that's when I realised I had to get out.

If somebody decides not to believe me, fine, that's your right.. if you'd like to know more about my audition experience, I might make a thread tomorrow. But for now.. I want to get back to just being a fan of the show, not a contestant, a line which I think was very blurred before now.

[Jack_]

You should've gone for it Sawyer! Probably the best chance we'll ever get of seeing a TiBBer go in :(

I understand your concerns but in the grand scheme of things I don't think many housemates lives are ruined these days as they perhaps used to be, I mean look at Conor from last year...

Having said that, congrats on making it so far!

Thanks Jack, it's appreciated. Only two other people knew on here about me being in the process - and I lied to one of them in the end after some situations changed and I felt a bit stupid. Like I said, I'll probably made a thread tomorrow - its been a very long road to now.

You make a good point about lives being affected by it - my main problem was being cut off and having no idea what was going on... or what would be going on in the future.

[HD]

How long have you watched Big Brother for?

Genuine question...

Surely you'd have some idea what you'd be in for?

Hmmmm!

Well there goes my chance of an easy 100 quid bet, selfish git :p. Thought you were out of the running? Or had someone else dropped out before you?

[Sawyer]

Hmmmm!

I've watched since BB3 (I was 7)

I can see the point you're making, and I say the same thing about people like Helen Flanagan going into the jungle last year. I did know what I'd be letting myself in for, but until it all started to become very real, I had no idea how I'd react. That's the best explanation I have for it.

Spose that's true in the fact you don't what to expect until you're in the situation, but still, something about it I don't buy (not that it actually matters).

Surely the chosen ones would be in hiding by now? They'd know too much about the series...

[Sawyer]

Well there goes my chance of an easy 100 quid bet, selfish git :p. Thought you were out of the running? Or had someone else dropped out before you?

So what happened that day I was supposed to go for the 'guinea pig run' was that we did some group tasks before we (they) went in. They took some people aside, including me, and asked us to go home. At that point, we all assumed that we were out of the running..

turns out that the stronger contenders where not wanted in the house (as they had more of a chance of going in for the real thing, thus not wanting them to see the house)

They put people into the dry run who were less likely to make it into the actual show... now I've pulled out, one of those people are going to get a call. When I messaged you, that day I thought that it was the end.. then all of a sudden I got a call and said it was the other way around, and I was going further.

At that point, I felt very stupid and because I hadn't seen the house and would have nothing to report, I thought you'd assume I was lying. Thus, it was easier to lie to you and tell you that that was it...

Just out of interest... what would you of betted on? Me winning, or getting evicted? lmao!

It's been like this since C5 took over, I think BB12 went in hiding two weeks before, BB13 just one week.

Ahh, i see!

I'm not trying to slate you or anything btw, just abit cautious of people who claim such things.

I've been on many forums since BB5 and the amount of people who claim to be potential housemates is ridiculous :joker:

If you're telling the truth then fair do's and it's been an experience in itself I spose :blush:

If i'm completely honest, that's exactly why I auditioned in the beginning.. I just wanted to experience the process and didn't actually really want to get into the house. I didn't expect to get far, and I just got caught up in the whole thing.

The producers make you feel so special and unique that you just say yes and go along with things.. then all of a sudden you're one week away from being broadcast to three million people on 57 cameras and a radio mic for 70 odd days.

[JohnnyBB]

ive thought about this myself sawyer, i think youve made the right decesion this dosent just effect you, youve got to think about family and freinds and things you might have done in the past that would get dragged up, mostly for me id say walking down the streets haveing everyone judge me off a bad edit, its just not worth it, for 15 minutes on the telly you did the right thing.

[Headie]

Gutted that you're not going in. It would've genuinely have been great to see you in the house as a housemate!

When you entered, you could've said something like "Wow, This Is Big Brother!" :joker:

thanks, I saw earlier that you refused to comment on this as to not ruin it for me, I appreciate it! But you'd of been doing me a favour if you did!! haaha.. I completely agree with all your points there. I suppose me leaving that little hint was me sub consciously wanting a way out.

Did they bully you to stay or was you let go freely?

[Sawyer]

Did they bully you to stay or was you let go freely?

They never bullied me, everything was always my decision. Well, that's how they made it seem.

The producer on skype was genuinely gutted to let me go. They told me I stood out from the beginning (they probably say that to all of them) and that I could be throwing away £100,000. I was like you'll probably halve that in some stupid twist!! to which she laughed. The conversation went on for about an hour., but I had already made my mind up.

[Headie]

I'm curious to know about everything now.... (well, whatever you're allowed to say anyway) :joker:

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

Aww, I'd have voted for the first time in 10 years if you'd gone in. (To save you of course). :laugh:

DigitalSid will vouch for this.. I was told very early on that they were weening out the wanabees. The people I met (they tried to keep the stronger candidates seperate) there were very few models and promotion people, but they were there.

Was not actually my fault.. Inside big Brother uploaded them to their servers, so if you went to insidebigbrother.net/images, they were there, on their PUBLIC DIRECTORY for anyone to see.. the CBB7 house pictures in all their glory.

BB5 profiles, about 80% accurate (but including BB7's Susie) were leaked by the Sunday People before launch night.

The BB6 housemate names were leaked a day or so early. I remember thinking no way would a housemate be called Science.

Imogen and Pete were featured in the tabloids before launch night of BB7.

Did you video audition or were you recruited? (i.e on a night out at the club or whatever).

[zakman440]

Aaaaw Sawyer! That is a shame, you would have been a great housemate! Just out of curiosity, did the producers tell you about the theme of the show this year or not?

[Gstar]

Just caught up, Sawyer I would have supported you 100% of the way. Evict all the basic b*tches over you.

When they asked you to think of "something interesting that could be relevant later", was that said to all the potential HMs? If so, I'm not happy. I like what you said to the woman and how they'll probably half the £100,000; you should've laughed and then done a :suspect: face to make her feel awkward

[*mazedsalv**]

So close Sawyer, but I think I know how you felt. I have been wanting to be a HM for ages, but having everything taken from me, waiting alone for launch, etc... I probably would have panicked. I think it makes sense why so many people pull out when they are in hiding. People get worried, because lets face it, the majority are booed and may be affected negatively afterwards, not by being disliked, but because the family may find it more difficult.

I would have supported you for sure. I can imagine the forum all saving you every week. :p

[Tony1111]

Having a feeling they will be released tonight however we are just so close to launch that I don't know if I am better waiting it out and being surprised on the night. :p

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I didn't have a secret, the others on the other hand, I don't know.

So name some people who you think may be going in.

From auditions ive been to theres allways people who stand out and a few I got through with ended up in the house. (R.I.P Sophia).

SPILL!!

Have you auditioned?

I allways wanted to be a housemate and when you get through at auditions its addictive but I would never ever go on the show now.

Suppose I just grew out of it.

Being mocked on forums, having my family, younger brother and sister watching me get booed, naked, drunk and possibly sexually active is not something I aspire to anymore.

#Morals

If I did get picked though and was unsure I wouldn't have pulled out I would have experienced launch night, walked into the house and straight out the fire exit lol.

And done.

[Headie]

Sawyer, were there any black auditionees? :joker:

I need a new Makosi or Charley plz
