Big Brother Time Bomb House: Connections to Old houses!

[Busterowen2]

Does anybody see in the garden that the stairs are covered in clouds?! Is that a connection to UBB?!?!

Then the wooden ice feel inside from CBB11?!?!

And also the diary room in the living room from many previous houses(Channel 4)

What does this all mean?!?!

[Jarrod]

I'm going to be doing a feature post on this on my site today.

BB5 sofas = BB16 sofas!

[Busterowen2]

Oh yeah! Just noticed that! but they were blue? :dance:

[Busterowen2]

Also i just realised the stairs are Big Brother Power Trip styled! :D but gold trim in the middle!

[Lostie!]

Oh yeah! Just noticed that! but they were blue? :dance:

They seem to be like a BB5/BB6 hybrid. :)

[Busterowen2]

Oooh and is the aquarium a real version of the decal by the stairs from Big Brother 2011?

[Busterowen2]

They seem to be like a BB5/BB6 hybrid. :)

for sure!!! :D

Wait you own Big Brother 24/7?

[Busterowen2]

I didn't know that :3

Wow, seeing the BB5 and BB16 living areas side by side is cool. Colour aside, they're pretty much identical. :laugh: :love:

Thanks for the link, I noticed the same similarities too including the rectangular dining table with overhead hanging lights.

For some reason the squiggly orange sunlounger things in the garden, and the gross grey/blue carpet style have both got a familiar vibe to them, although I haven't yet found them in old houses.

The 3 armchairs around the smaller circular table - was there something like this in Charlotte Crosbys series and also in the series with Gary Busey too?
(although maybe it was a grouping of 2 not 3 armchairs)

[Jarrod]

I do indeed.

[Jake.]

Interesting, thanks Jarrod

[Busterowen2]

[Jarrod]

Interesting, thanks Jarrod

You're welcome. If anybody notices any more let me know and I'll add them on.

You didn't add the ice and wooden theme from CBB11.. :3

[Jarrod]

That's because it's not ice, it's rock.

[Busterowen2]

Oh xD

[Josy]

I posted this in the other thread this morning, I think all the areas of the house are representing past houses.

Oh wait, are all these different areas of the house based on BB houses of the past? :think:

[Busterowen2]

Yeah but we were pointing out which parts of the house look like other houses.. ._.

[Henry2014]

So are they similarities or are the just running out of ideas at Channel 5 and using best bits to combine into the house.

Also corrections to a few things Ive seen on the thread.

The Aquarium will not be real. It'll be like BB12 walls - just a wallpaper. A Big Brother house wouldn't ever have a live aquarium feature, it won't work in a studio!!

And the stairs are surely exactly the same as the last Civilian Series and bother Celebrity Series since. They havent decided to put in an identical staircase with a wooden veneer.

I don't think people should read too much into the Timebomb theme. The house is great, but not a literary masterpiece with hidden meaning and thought given to every item. I also wonder how well the house will bare with camera angles. There seem to be fewer mirrors in the living area and they seem to have added some funky shaped mirrors throughout also! I also hope that there will be some touches to improve this house before the Launch next week!

I suppose you could compare it to the BB13 bathroom/garden, didn't they have a rock theme?

[Marsh.]

Those BB5 sofas look so uncomfortable.

Wallpapers aren't reflective!

[Marsh.]

Yeah, if it's not real it's some kind of light box feature. It's definitely not a wallpaper.

Please look closely. How deep do you think they can make the fish tank?? Its a picture with plastic sheeting over the top. Sorry to destroy the illusion. Shame you couldn't pick up on any of the other points I made...

No one's insisting it's a real aquarium, but it's clearly not a wallpaper.

I think the top and bottom give it away as one of the fish at the bottom is bending with the curve and at the top you can't see the surface of the water where it would be in a real tank.

I think it's like a light box picture. My auntie had one of a waterfall years ago.

[Busterowen2]

I think the time bomb stuff is for Previous housemates to come back tbh

[Jamesy]

It looks like a wrapped image with plastic placed on top to protect the wallpaper (from water damage) and give it depth.

I've seen this kind of thing at Alton Towers in their hotels. In the bathrooms there is wallpaper/vinyls with printed graphics, then it has a plastic sheet placed in front of it to protect it from water.

The bedroom reminds me of cbb12

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Garden/pool area reminds me of BB8
Living Room sofa BB6
Bedroom BB9

[T*]

Could the garden stripes be a homage to the BB4 eye or something

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Just had another look at house pictures the outside seating area next to the pool reminds me of BB5, with the style of the furniture
