Big Brother: Viewer-controlled mole going into the house

Big Brother will be sending a professional actor into this year's series and they will be entirely under the control of viewers, Digital Spy has learnt.

Sources say that as part of this year's 'Secrets and Lies' theme, the male housemate will work as a 'mole' for Big Brother and be challenged to complete trouble-making tasks voted for by fans.

The concept is similar to the 'America's Player' twist used in previous seasons of Big Brother USA, in which viewers could select housemates for the 'mole' to nominate, pull pranks on and spin lies to.


The UK show has regularly seen contestants work for Big Brother - most notably Makosi Musambasi as BB6's 'Unlucky 13th housemate' and Mario Mugan, who entered BB11 wearing a mole costume. However, this will be the first time that instructions have come from viewers.

Male twins, secret relatives and a friend of Tulisa Contostavlos have also been tipped to enter this year's Big Brother.

Bit on the Side host Rylan Clark has told Digital Spy that this year's 'Secrets and Lies' twist could "make or break people".

Big Brother 14 will launch tonight (June 13) at 9pm on Channel 5, with more contestants joining the original housemates in tomorrow's (June 14) second live show airing at the same time.

Oh that sounds so good! :amazed:

[Marc]

:sleep:

[ThisIsNickkk]

We've been there and done that before though.

It might be the first time they have trusted the public with select twists, but, the public can't be trusted to keep the right housemates in, nevermind decide on twists.

[Shaun]

yawn

I think it will be fun. :hugesmile:

ohhhhhhhhh

I agree. I hope this a load of BS.

[Josy]

Ugh.

I don't want to see an entire series of arguing and fighting either, yeah some is ok but when it drags on and on and everyone has fallen out/won't speak to each other or even worse, crying and saying they want to leave blah blah blah, thats just **** IMO

[Marsh.]

It could be good if it's done right.

I'm guessing that any nominations against the mole will be discounted so they can survive or is this a 1 week thing?

[Jack_]

I haven't read it...but two questions:

1) Is it believable/reliable source?
2) Is it sh*t?

[ThisIsNickkk]

What's the obsession with these types of twists as well..

The whole ear-piece thing on launch nights got on my nerves last year.

[Loukas]

I haven't read it...but two questions:

1) Is it believable/reliable source?
2) Is it sh*t?

1) The source is Digital Spy, so yeah i guess?
2) Yeah lool

[Jordan.]

Oh so I guessed this unintentionally 3 weeks ago :laugh:

[Benjamin]

Not sure how well this will work. Seems a bit of a lame twist.

[ThisIsNickkk]

This whole mole thing just run its course now in one sense.

If Channel 5 can pull it off, then it could be entertaining, but if it's just pointless stuff, then don't even bother

Which series was it when BB put fake newspaper clippings on one side of one of the mirrors that said there was a mole in the house? The housemates went bananas over it, but won't the housemates expect something like this these days?

[Black Dagger]

no thanks

[GiRTh]

FFS

[Tony1111]

If they pull it off then it could work. I think some house mates could be used to this now especially when they are called to the diary room often. They need to find a way to make it not look obvious to the others perhaps a head of house could work as his den where he can receive orders over a phone. That way the house mates would know where he was and would just expect him to be head of house as a rouse. :)

[aman201]

Sounds naff...

[LaLaLand]

Hmmmmmmm undecided.

[Jords]

meh

[Jordan.]

The only thing that sucks is that it's an actor not a genuine housemate. It'll be good to see them cause some trouble though.

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Sounds like a good twist , but hope BB can't pull it off & it works well(that I'm not sure of ...tbh).

[Valdora]

They have never done this full on. If they actually do it to its best then it would be amazing. But I have a feeling they will have them do silly things like messing up beds and tasks for the first week then allow them to win housemate status.

[fruit_cake]

as it's Channel Five...I fear it'll be **** and fame related.

[Glenn.]

Just no. If that's 'the secret' C5 can **** off tbh

[DigitalSid]

I agree. I hope this a load of BS.

It's not. DS have a good relationship with the production team, PEJ (Phil Edgar Jones, the show's creative director during the C4 years) used to give them regular exclusives.

[mkbb]

Im guessing it will be just one of the housemates secrets. There will be far more secrets then just that. If it lasts the duration of the series it will be really good.

[aj2463]

Hope it doesn't last too long, I wanna see the housemates be housemates and not part of some twist constantly, but sounds good, wonder if They'll do some sort of twist with the twins, twins are soo over done now They need to change it up a bit

[aman201]

Twins are ****e.

Hopefully the twins being in is false.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I like it.

I do wish we only had one launch though to be honest.

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

I like it.

I do wish we only had one launch though to be honest.

Me too Daniel :xyxwave:

[Mitchell]

Twins are ****e.

Twins are confirmed I think

[Me. I Am Salman]

Sounds ******ing ****, they'll show montages of things he does whilst playing 'sneaky' and 'sinister' music, it will be a cringefest.

[Joe.]

that's an awful secret- boring- I hate 'mole' tasks they've been done to death now! we need another second house or something!

[aman201]

Twins are confirmed I think

Bugger!

I just have bad memories from the absolutely awful Sam and Amanda.

[Ramsay]

The secret has been hyped up so much that no matter what it turns out to be, people will just hate it lol

[Marsh.]

that's an awful secret- boring- I hate 'mole' tasks they've been done to death now! we need another second house or something!

Yeah, because second houses/secret rooms haven't been done to death. :joker:

Apart from Pauline in BB8 who was only there a couple of days they haven't really done a proper mole twist. It's always been a housemate on a one off task.

Could be good if they don't offer the mole housemate status.

[g17m]

i seriously hope the HM's are already in hiding or not allowed internet access cos it would be the biggest disaster ever if they saw this

[LaLaLand]

The secret has been hyped up so much that no matter what it turns out to be, people will just hate it lol

EXACTLY! I don't think this is the only "secret" though, I feel the house will be full of little secret areas and stuff like that.

Always makes me think back to when Carice went and crawled through the wall and listened to John McCririck slagging her off ha. Stuff like that would be great.

[Marsh.]

i seriously hope the HM's are already in hiding or not allowed internet access cos it would be the biggest disaster ever if they saw this

:joker: Well it would be a bit pointless hiding them now if they weren't wouldn't it?

[Braden]

This would've worked well a long time ago. But instead they decided to piss about with the idea and send Mario of all people to do a load of ****ty tasks.

I'll be happy with concept this time around, as long as they get somebody who fits the role really well.

[Joe.]

Yeah, because second houses/secret rooms haven't been done to death. :joker:

ahem- it's along the same lines of the earpiece twist recently done in CBB9, Pauline bb8, Mario, makosi etc it's been done to death! Secret houses were last SUCCESFULLY done in 2006 [BB7!]

[Tom4784]

It might be good but the actor shouldn't be elligible to win otherwise they'll win with ease.

[emmetmcl]

Sounds good this.

[Jords]

It might be good but the actor shouldn't be elligible to win otherwise they'll win with ease.

I agree. They should probably play to mid-series, if successful leave with £25K/£50K.

[Beastie]

As long as this twist doesn't last all series then I am fine with it.

[*mazedsalv**]

To the people that say they have done this... no, they haven't.

The mole is in OUR control and is a hired actor to do what we want them to do.

[ahopkins]

This whole mole thing just run its course now in one sense.

If Channel 5 can pull it off, then it could be entertaining, but if it's just pointless stuff, then don't even bother

BB6! That was class because Kemal and co. were already paranoid about there being a mole :joker:

[Marsh.]

Ahem - Read my post properly.

Everytime it was done previously it was a HOUSEMATE on a secret mission/task not an actual mole in every sense of the word.

Only Pauline fits the description and that was a short task.
