[Simple_Plan]

so in any previous series have photos of the house been leaked before hand ?

and who is right lol conor or captain remy ? :tongue:

[MarkWaldorf]

I dont know, but last year the housemate photos/info were leaked a few days before. :bigsmile: Even better imo.

But that was because to 3 Mobile (was it?) had put them on the site too early.

I watch BB Australia for 4 years so I can tell you nothing will be released until the opening night unless they change it.

And Mark, you are right but I doubt it will happen once again because the producers will be more careful about that. And it may be better this way.

[Arneldo]

They never release house house photo before the launch in BBAU. And they havent relased official house photos at all for two years now.

I dont think they will make the same mistake as they did last year with putting the photos up first.

Yeah the producers were so pi$$ed. I do remember the launch night on BBBA, listening to the podcast. I think it's one of these controversial moments that BBAU doesn't need this year. BB08 Big Time !!

[Corkie]

According to BBA in the forum section, there was on advert for "so you think you can dance" and in the advert they said

"Watch SYTYCD this Sunday for a sneak peek at one of this year's housemates...".


Should be interesting.

[Corkie]

Here it is

[Corkie]

I remember last year this webste showed live viewing of channel 10

http://networkten.bravehost.com/

but it says it's offline. Is it offline for everyone else? If it is do you think they will turn it online before big brother?

[Captain.Remy]

I won't have the chance to watch it live this year as I will be to school. I could last year because I was on holidays during the first week of BB07.

[Corkie]

So 10 days till the actual launch and 11 days for us international viewers :cheer2:

[Captain.Remy]

Yes you are right, it's so close !!! :colour::colour:

[Brekkie]

Official website now up with some cryptic shots of the house: bigbrother.com.au

[Captain.Remy]

Yay that is awesome !!!!! :colour::colour:

I read the interviews of the hosts and they are so funny, both seem very clever and great.
As always the house seems to be amazing, great features and colours.
I really hope they are not all promises that will disappoint us later...

[Conor]

The new house looks so cool! I love the look of the outdoor showers and the pink and purple lights the most! :banana:

[JOSHUAH!]

The house looks amazing, very BBUK inspired I think.

I'd love BBUK to have such a vast amount of space.

I'm looking forward to this series, I even like the presenters. Well, Jackie O seems nice, not sure about that Kyle though.

It has nothing to do with BBUK, the Aussie houses have never been like the UK ones and it is not going to happen for that one too. What makes you think it's BBUK inspired ?

[Loukas]

W.O.W.!

Deffo watching this year!!!!!!!!!!!!! How Can I Watch?

I agree. All Big Brother houses follow a similar house format. Highly finished, lots of strange lighting, textures and shapes... the only version that seems to leave this format is BBUS.

Some Australian series adopted some twists from UK and USA but never in the house. They have always been very creative, putting great furnitures.
The last house has even inspired BBUK and the french series with the 'environmentally friendly' theme.

I have to disagree BBUK has always been environment and aus nicked the urinal idea of us and also this years house seems to feature a target now i wonder where i have seen that number 2 on slide show

[Brekkie]

Although it doesn't seem like it at all, the BBUK house is actually not much smaller than the BB Aus house and if it was used to it's full potential I'm sure they could come up with a great spacious layout.

I guess the exterior of BB2 house was covered completly by solar pannels, so yeah :)

[Captain.Remy]

BBUK has never been environmentally friendly before BB8 (except the solars panels in BB2). Yes they have a target, yes they had urinals but they did not copy the whole theme. The aussie designers always use different furnitures, different ideas and did not copy any of the theme BBUK had.

[Arneldo]

OH GOD! Little Sister is back! :shocked:

OH GOD! Little Sister is back! :shocked:

Is that a bad thing Aaron ? I kinda found her speeches interesting last year.

[Corkie]

I never read her bit as I just cringe. You can just tell it's a fat 50 year old man eating chips trying to be down with the kids by saying the words dude and sexy.

:spin:

But she said to come on at 6:30 on sunday when the housemates are in lockdown as she has some inside info.

[Captain.Remy]

Yeah I always thought she was weird but sometimes it's very interesting.

[Captain.Remy]

So apparently, this is a picture from the house found at the VIP Lounge on the official website.

Ohhh! It could be. because theres the astro turf and you can see the blue wood thing in antoher pic.

[Captain.Remy]

Yes it's likely to be real. Well the farm is back...but with fake animals ? The designers are weird on that one lol

[Arneldo]

Meet the first BBAU housemate!

Her name is Terri and she is the oldest ever BBAU housemates, aged 53!

http://i31.tinypic.com/2qxqln5.gif

She was revealed during 'So You think You Can Dance' tonight in Aussie. She believes religion is the root to all evil.

http://www.bigbrother.com.au/housemates.htm

[Arneldo]

BBLS gives us some goss...


It’s 6:30pm so here’s my promised update…
You would have seen that the very first HM will be revealed during Dance tonight… true story. And for anyone who has been worried about whether the Housemates really will be the D word (ie “different”) – rest assured, your worries will be null and void in roughly an hour!

Our Housemates are now safely tucked away in Lockdown and suffice to say, it’s officially time to get excited.

Righto, enough of my gushing sentiments – here’s what you came here for and here it is… straight up.

This year, Big Brother hopes you like planes, trains and automobiles.

The Housemates will be VERY cosy at nighttime.

There is no shopping… but coins WILL be required.

If Jamie Oliver was a Housemate, he’d be very disappointed.

The House is full of promo models? I don’t think so…

And finally… BB08 will feature the oldest Housemate ever… and the youngest Housemate ever.

Excited much?

Just wait until you find out who our first Housemate is!

‘Til then,
BBLS x

[Captain.Remy]

Good start so far ! It seems to be awesome, she's not going to be the regular mummy, I hope she rocks !

[Arneldo]

She reminds me of Carole - I just hope she isnt a disapointment like Carole was.

[Captain.Remy]

Message original : Arneldo

Exactly, that's why I said 'I hope she rocks'. Carole was not supposed to be the submissive mummy who spends her time cleaning the house.
Terri seems to be outspoken and outrageous. 8 days left !!!

And apparently, there will be an other housemate leaked on tuesday night. :hello:

[Corkie]

According to someone on BBA this are the confirmed names of the housemates

here is his post:


Ok guys I'm back for another year. All housemate names found. Enjoy.

Awaiting more info

Theory (personal) on exclusion of Terri. I'm guessing the three HM names Ten are releasing will be a "vote in" style, whereas these are the ones definitely going in.

EDIT: NO PICS


Isabel
Mary
Emily
Bob
Robb
Vanessa
Greg
Ben
Sarah
Clayton
Adam
Jane




Just incase you don't want to know i've put it in spoilers.

[Captain.Remy]

I did not read anything ! But thanks anyway ! :wink:

[Redmond]

It all sounds very exciting, I've never watched BBAUS but it seems they are really going for a change this year. I hope BB9UK will be doing something similar.

[Captain.Remy]

By the way, Ten has to be so pi$$ed the names have been leaked one more time, the Channel is going to kill that person lool

[Sam!]

Terri looks interesting hopefully not like Carole

[Captain.Remy]

The 'Religion is the root to all evil' comment is gold !
So we need a strongly religious housemate then Terri would go mad. I hope the whole cast is about opposite thoughts like a girly gay man and a big straight trucker etc.... That would be awesome ! :hugesmile:

[Arneldo]

New reports say that 17 yr old Corey Worthington will enter the house as an intruder.

Corey became a celebrity last year when he held a house party when his parents were away, and over 500 people showed up causing havoc and a lot of damage. Corey's news interview became a Youtube hit for his typical teenage attitude.

Personally, I think he is a legend...and fit!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2EDtxEumFI

[Captain.Remy]

That could be related to the 'youngest housemate to enter'. Corey seems to be very funny and completely deluded ! If it's true then the entire cast is different. :banana:

[Xander]

LOL he doesnt seem in the slighest bothered... and LOL at that "What advice would you have for someone throwing a party and whse parents are out of town" "Get me do it for them"

[Corkie]

His just a joke lol.
How can he become a celebrity just for having a bloody party which went out of hand?

Mad!

shoud be interesting if he is a housemate.

Also there is going to be a special show called Big Brother: Gatecrashers.

He is a party animal.. gatecrashers? Could make sence.

[Arneldo]

He wont be a housemate as he is too young. If the rumors are true, he will enter for a short period of time just to spice it up.

[Captain.Remy]

Maybe Big Brother: Gatecrashers will introduce some intruders as always. But yeah, it could be related to him.

[Conor]

I love the sound of the first two housemates, even if one may not be actually going in, and some of BBLS's inside info sounds fantastic!

[Corkie]

Yeh maybe.

[Simple_Plan]

only 1 week to wait :)

[Corkie]

Well, it'll be tuesday until we can actualy watch it :rolleyes: I want to watch it now... :bigsmile:

[Sam!]

He looks stupid, funny and really not bothered haha.

[Arneldo]

All housemates in the Big Brother house this year will have to share one blanket… except for one.

The single housemate that has their own blanket will have their own home - but it’s not a separate room or a separate house.

Additionally, one housemate will be evicted in the first night.

Thanks to… well, they know who they are.


From BBBA of course.

[Arneldo]

Also, more news ..

Jackie O has confirmed that it's time to go "It's time to go..."! They will not be using that classic eviction annoncement as Jackie said it was somthing "Gretel owned". She sais they might use Davina's "the first housemate to be evicted is...".

An interview also says:

"While working on another reality series, Australian Princess, Jackie travelled to the United Kingdom and became hooked on their version of Big Brother.

"It was so different to ours but I always watched it and thought we could use a few of the ideas they have to improve our own version."

This year's Australian season could draw on elements of the British show, but Jackie said it wouldn't be a "freak show" for the sake of it.

New rumours suggests that a parent will enter the house - with thier child! Could this child be the youngest ever housemate that LS told us about?

[Captain.Remy]

Good news, good news ! Everything seems to be awesome so far.
I think the 'single housemate' will be related to the one evicted on the launch night.

[MrGaryy]

I'm so excited!

[Conor]

I take it Jackie was watching BB7? Because she mentioned a freakshow. Pity she couldn't have saw a much better series :(

[MrGaryy]

I think BB7 gets a hard time! It wasn't that bad and I really liked the tasks. not as good as BB5 tho, that was ace!

[Redmond]

Next housemate revealed:

Dixie, 21 years old.
http://www.bigbrother.com.au/images/dixie_170x207.gif

[Captain.Remy]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzsrmPcqJr0

Dixie grew up on an Aboriginal missionary. She is currently a student and is working in remote Aboriginal communities as a mental health worker. She describes herself as obnoxious, rude and arrogant.

[Sam!]

She does not look like shes 21. She looks interesting though.

[Captain.Remy]

Yeah, apparently the producers didn't lie to us by putting big personalities. BBAU needed much more diversity and so far so good !

[Corkie]

She seems pretty cool :spin:

[MrGaryy]

Yeah she looks much older than 21. It will be nice to see some people that aren't as streamline as BB7.

[Captain.Remy]

Message original : thebiggerbrother

Exactly, hopefully the house won't be full of boring promo models and unintelligent housemates.

[MrGaryy]

It seemed like every single one of the boys last year just morphed into one proto type. Now BB5, there was a series!

[Redmond]

Quiet, Cautious, Reserved?......I Don't Think So!

I really love those adverts/VT's, the look, the music, the catchphrase. Just really hoping our BB9 can pull of something equally exciting, if not better.

[Diabolico]

Dixie seems interesting, can't wait to see the other housemates!

[Arneldo]

* A former Housemate will be entering the House. We’ve heard this before, but now it’s from a reliable source.

* The bedroom is coloured red. BBBA is renowned for leaking out paint-selection info.

* The Diary Room walls have red and purple neon squares on them. Because the HMs weren’t going to be blinded by enough bright light sources as it was! By the looks of it this corresponds to one of the ‘sneak peek’ images on the BB website.

* There’s a mini-stage in the grounds of the House. What could this possibly mean? Saturday-night karaoke?

* There’s a tree in the backyard - a climbable tree! Is this to help the housemates to escape? Is the Chill-out room now a cubby house? Will the HMs hang Corey from it if he dares to make an appearance?

Discuss these amazing developments in our new-look forums!


From the all-new BBBA! New site looks good!

Maybe the former housemate is Vesna!? She did an online audition and had a lot of votes!

[Captain.Remy]

I hope Vesna goes back, I love her ! Please let her back in !
So far so good, this is all exciting stuff, seriously.

And there are plenty of interviews featuring ex-housemates like Aleisha, Greg, Zoran, Emma etc...

[JeanP!]

5 days... :hugesmile:

[Captain.Remy]

I cannot believe it all starts over on Monday night ! Time is gone so quickly since last year, it's unbelievable !

[Corkie]

I know i'm so excited :hugesmile:

[MrGaryy]

I'd love Greg to go back not Vesna shes to like Michelle.

[Captain.Remy]

Greg is such a bore, he did nothing really exciting as Vesna did. She rocked BB05. But overall it was a great bunch of housemates anyway.

By the way, I love the new BBBA makeover, the monkey banner is so awesome. They are so funny. :hugesmile:

[MrGaryy]

I liked him more so towards the end. He was better than Tim! But they'd never bring a winner back anyway.:bored:

[Captain.Remy]

I do agree he was better than Time, hand down. But Vesna is the type of housemate BB08 needs: loud, outrageous, funny, natural, not a promo bimbo model.

[MrGaryy]

I wouldn't be to dissapointed if any of the housmates for BB05 returned. except Rita! I hate her.:mad:

[Captain.Remy]

Anyway, can't wait to know the next housemate who will be revealed on saturday night ! :banana:

[MrGaryy]

Yeah, me too! The Biggest Loser!:cheer2::cheer2::cheer2:

[Captain.Remy]

I really hope that aussie people won't vote out the entertaining housemates. It has to change !

[MrGaryy]

Actually I think the Aussies are prtty good like that, much better than the UK!

[Captain.Remy]

Who Weekly has reported in their May 5th edition that Travis will be the third housemate to be revealed to be public, having already been introduced to Terri and Dixie.

Travis is 20 years of age, a virgin, and has a ’squeaky voice’. Be watching The Biggest Loser tonight from 7pm for a sneak peak of Travis.

Our sources are also telling us that a final fourth housemate will be introduced during Sunday night’s finale of So You Think You Can Dance and that it might be a height challenged person.


From BBBA of course. :thumbs:

[Captain.Remy]

Oh God, I won't be able to stand that voice for 84 days loool
Anyway he seems deluded and funny, so far we have great housemates.

[MrGaryy]

Loving the housemates so far. Finally some diversity!

[JeanP!]

4 days :hugesmile:

Cringe!!!! lol

[Captain.Remy]

This is hysterical now !!! 3 days to go !!! (But 4 days for us lol) :spin2::spin2:

[Captain.Remy]

BBBA confirmed there will be intruders entering in the house. We don't know how many and how they will enter but from its sources, there will be intruders.

[Corkie]

Arghh after 4 days of working sopcast have now randomly put network 10 offline.

[Captain.Remy]

LIVING AREA:

* A new, ‘computerised’ BB voice (edit: this is probably just an effect they used for the radio). The BB voice interacting with the hosts is one of the ones from last year.
* A completely different lounge room, with a purple leather lounge in the shape of a question mark.
* Lots of random cushions, lamps etc around the lounge room.
* A dining room table with a conveyor belt on it coming out of a wall (idiotic caller: “It’s like Auschwitz!”).
* No proper kitchen - it’s outside. No fridge, no pantry.
* Pictures on food on the walls.
* The Diary Room chair is black, white, and silver. It resembles an “alien head”. It can fit about three people across sitting, though only enough backrest for one. The DR has purple walls.
* They describe the house as being about a third smaller than last year.

BEDROOM AREA:

* There are 12 wardrobes - in the form of industrial-grade steel lockers.
* Single big bed confirmed - with one sheet, one pillow (made up of 14 sewed together).
* Bedroom has ‘Matrix’-like lettering on the walls.
* Bathroom “about half the size of last year”.

OUTSIDE:

* The description of the pool wasn’t terribly clear - they said there was no proper pool, just an L-shaped “spa thing” and a “square one”. There was a brief mention by Biggzy of an “indoor one”, but that wasn’t expanded on.
* No gym, though there are dumbells, mats, and a bike with one wheel.
* Circus equipment everywhere!
* A farm with plastic animals - sheep, goat, chickens.
* A tree with ropes, pinwheels, and a swing on it.
* A door with clouds on it.
* There’s a blue Combi van with a bed in it! It also has a little hatch with a mobile phone in it.




From BBBA.

[Sam!]

It sounds really coool.

[noahman]

whens it start

[Sam!]

On Monday for them and Tuesday for us.

[Captain.Remy]

I edited my last post with some new clues insiders provided BBBA earlier.

[Arneldo]

I.CANNOT.WAIT.

[Captain.Remy]

The house seems to be completely ****ing crazy ! I'm sure it will provide the best house this year.
Bring it on !!! One more weekend to wait !

[Simple_Plan]

woop!
fairly excited now like!

[bigbrotherbest99]

god thse hms look really good, i hope our bb 9 uk can get hms like this year, i dont want rows about food and that for bbuk i want rows and arguments about people side about abortion, religions and all that, looks like bbau are doing a good job, lets hope our bb can do what they did with bb5 and make all the other bb's in the world look crap compared to it

[Spike]

Can't wait for it to begin now, the housemates look great.

[JeanP!]

3 daysssssssss:hello:

[Arneldo]

Wow! I'm listening to interviews with the housemates - and they are different. Well, some of them. There are a few that come across the usual BBAU housemate.

http://www.2dayfm.com.au/shows/hot30/highlights/big-brother/housemates

[Captain.Remy]

Here is the aerial view of the garden:
http://i28.tinypic.com/2j5xmvn.jpg

There are other pics at BBBA of course.

[Arneldo]

The house looks so small in these pics!


Garden looks great and I'm really curious to find out what the other small garden is for. It looks like to does link onto the Rewards Room (BB6).

Also lots of blue seats, and you can see a light shineing on one from the house. I think thats the enterance door. Maybe the housemate will say goodbye to thier families directly before entering through the eviction door.

[Conor]

Ohhh!! This is all so cool!

The housemates look so funny, fresh and watchable, the house looks amazing and everything just sounds so good! :hello::hello:

[Captain.Remy]

The house looks awesome. Well I'm kinda disappointed they didn't change the shape of the garden but it's still great.
I think it looks like a mess because they didn't finish to tidy up the furnitures.

[MrGaryy]

The hms aren't kept in the same room are they?

[Corkie]

Link to radioshow in house. (http://www.2dayfm.com.au/shows/hot30/listen/podcasts)

It's the first podcast.

Here is the link to the radio show with them two radio people in the house. It's pretty good.

[MrGaryy]

Check out this parody!
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3KQtedASlKc

[Captain.Remy]

Why Bother loool
That's kinda gross but still funny. Jackie Bim-bo and Vyle haha

[Arneldo]

LOL at the parody!

[Arneldo]

One drops out - on the day of launch!


In an article posted at midnight (which implies a possible media embargo until the day of the Launch taping), The Daily Telegraph reports that one of this year’s Housemates has pulled out at the last minute. No name is given, but we are told that the HM was an Afghani Muslim.

The Telegraph quotes BB Executive Producer Virginia Hodgson: “We had chosen an Afghani Muslim guy as one of our housemates. He couldn’t proceed for personal and family reasons.”

[Captain.Remy]

Although this housemate drop out, it still shows the producers made a line-up with more diversity than ever.
But well, we can't blame him if he had personal and family reasons.

[Redmond]

Would of been good to see a Muslim housemate in Big Brother, they rarely appear in Big Brother, I think Kaysar in BBUSA 6 is the only one I know of.

Really hoping our BB9 UK is going to have a diverse cast like this.

[Arneldo]

More housemates have been revealed in the media today ahead of the final set of “Sneak Peak” promos due to air tonight during the SYTYCD finale.

First up is Alice, a 24-year old vet from Victoria with a private school background.

Also revealed today is Saxon, a 22-year old heavily tattooed truck driver who believes in UFOs. On his (now-deleted) My Space page he describes himself as “an aussie bloke who loves to party” and believes that “we are only young once so might as well live it up ay.”

Also revealed in the Herald Sun is David, a twenty-something fireman and former member of the Exclusive Brethren who claims he has “never kissed a girl or eaten in a restaurant”.

[JeanP!]

1 day!!!!!! :banana:

[Captain.Remy]

2 days before watching !!!! :colour::colour:

[Corkie]

[Captain.Remy]

The TV stage looks amazing !!!! :hugesmile:

[MrGaryy]

I wish it was on today so I could watch it on the live Channel!!

[Corkie]

I might just wait till tomorrow I can't be bothered to listen to the audio.

i'm supporting random number housemate 7 :spin2:

[MrGaryy]

Yeah I'm waiting too! I'm watching SYTYCD Finale to see the next sneak peek. Terri's one has just been on during the ad break.

[MrGaryy]

Dixie's was on a second ago. I reckon the new one will be in the fourth ad break.

[Conor]

Just saw a sneak peak of the new bedroom. It has a Chinese theme to it and personally I dont think its designed to well, but auk well.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqyQT4y97yA

Also, a sneak peak of housemate Rima

[MrGaryy]

Is Rima a dwarf?

[Captain.Remy]

This series is gonna be insane !! So many crazy things we could not expect from BB Australia.

[Loukas]

WOW! The Housemates This Year Are A CRAZY Bunch!

[Sam!]

BB Aus is certainly going for a different, better bunch of housemates.

[MrGaryy]

:conf2: I hope she doesn't last long, she annoys me already!

I think that's what BB AU needs: a bit of annoying people. We had too much lifeless and boring housemates who are too nice and too sweet on them. Bring the big characters on !!!

Yeah but shes too much for me. I like Travis tho! I just think shes going to make for uncomfortable viewing.

[Spike]

The housemates look great. I love Travis already, I can't stop watching the sneak peek advert of him it still makes me laugh.

[Corkie]

lol. Rima is mint

"I'm going in the house to patronize the patronizers"

[MrGaryy]

I've changed my mind! I wathed her promo again and now I think she'll be great! Plus I've got used to the fact shes a midget.

[Corkie]

Why do need to get used to it?


It's not her flaut she is small.

[MrGaryy]

I never said it was her fault.

[Captain.Remy]

The cast seems to be crazily insane so far from what BBBA is reporting. Can't wait to watch it on tuesday !

[Arneldo]

AAAH! I cant wait. Rima looks great! I'm so excited.

Im gonna try and stay away from this topic for a while - until I see the show.

But from the housemate we have seen so far, going by the ranking - Dixie is my favourite :D

[Captain.Remy]

Do you already have a fave Aaron ? Wow I can't decide, they all seem to be completely different !
BB just announced there will be an eviction right now and the housemates have to decide amongst them who will be out.

[MrGaryy]

Maybe that should have spoiler tags on it?

[Captain.Remy]

There are already spoilers pretty much everywhere on this thread so it's not needed. I think, like Aaron I will stay away from this topic until tuesday.

[Sam!]

The housemates are already in :O ooo.

Yes, the launch night is taped today and will air in Aussie tomorrow. It should be up for us to download by tomorrow.

[Captain.Remy]

Earlier on the launch night Kyle said to the crowd 'I thought we were friends' and someone yelled 'I don't think so !' :laugh3::laugh3:

[Arneldo]

First BBBA podcast up now! It's with Dave and Vigs.

[Sam!]

How the hell are you and Remy watching it now then as its not even on Aussie tv haha.

[Arneldo]

BBBA have set up a audio stream, so people can listen live.

[Sam!]

Ohhh ok lol.

[Captain.Remy]

They also did it last year but they had so many problems. But this year, nothing. No problem, no cuts, no angry Mike Goldman !

[Arneldo]

Apprantly Kyle was abusing the crowd calling them "fat pigs", and when Rima was entering the house she gave him the finger.

Also when the warm-up guy said somthing about Gretel the crowd went wild.

None of this will be shown on the show.

I listened, but I'm waiting for vibes and vid to be back; I love them (by the way it's Tigs not Vigs).

[Captain.Remy]

All the housemates pics have been added on BBBA. :thumbs:

[telefan]

the new set and graphics are AMAZING!!!:cheer2::cheer2:
our bb has ALOT to live up to now!!

[Captain.Remy]

I think that, if BBAU keeps the way it is so far, it will be a serious rival for BBUK. The producers have decided not to have a crap series like the 2 last ones.
After all, BBAU deserves a good series, seriously.

But you can clearly see the difference so far. I mean, the diversity in the cast and all the efforts the producers are making at this point. For me, it seems very promising.
And overall, everyone seems to have great feelings towards the show.

[Conor]

Sounds like some BBUK house stuff has been copied: Outdoor bathroom, massive bed, changing colour DR entrance, caravan, and the target.

However, reading the BBBA blog, it all sounds really origional and enteresting twsit wise!! I cant wait!

Well the teaser pics gave away an outdoor shower as well as a target.
The video teasers showed a retro caravan in the garden and 1 enourmous bed in a chinese themed bedroom and BBBA confirmed there was an outdoor bathroom and colour changing Diray room entrance, and beleive me, BBBA are never wrong!

[Arneldo]

Just a heads up - from when the show airs tomorrow, the launch show will be freely discussed in this topic, without spoilers. So, if you dont wanna know then stay away from this topic.

So basically they copied some of our BB8 house.

[Rory]

Anyone else think Travis looks like Stifler from American Pie?

[Rory]

I see BBAU is becoming more influenced by BBUK.

The past 2 years there have been dull as rocks good-looking people, and now they're really starting to shake it up with not-so good looking people, a guy with a high voice, and Rima.

[Captain.Remy]

Tonight guys !!!! :cheer2::cheer2:

[Loukas]

Where can i download it again :S!?

Really Love the sound of Rima! she reminds me of a girl at school :P lol

[Arneldo]

Gonna be watching on Soapcast :D cant wait

Edit - it's here sop://broker.sopcast.com:3912/22191

[Arneldo]

Soapcast playing the VT they played after the BB07 finale!

[Arneldo]

Starts im 15 minutes!

[Arneldo]

BB08 is NEXT on Ten :D

[Arneldo]

WOW best opening titles ever! he he love them

[Arneldo]

Terri seems really nice actually, and it was sad seeing her say goodbye to her grandson.

Kyle & Jackie O doing a decent job so far, I'm finding it hard to remember Gretel.

Saxon is a bit...wierd.

[Arneldo]

The ramp is gone, which I kinda miss.

Bianca reminds me of Krystal, and I dont think she is as "brainy" as she claims to be. Saxon's reaction to Biance was hilerious.

[Arneldo]

Renee is awsome! Love her already ;D

[Arneldo]

Renee & Dixie are from the same town

[Arneldo]

Soapcast cut off just before the end of the show.

Based on Launch Night...

1. Alice
2. Renee
3. Dixie
4. Terri
5. Nobbi
6. Briggite
7. Rory
8. Bianca
9. Rima
10. Saxon
11. Rebecca
12. David
13. Travis
14. Ben

[Bigbrotherin]

I hate sop lol, will the first eviction be airing whilst we sit here stranded?

[telefan]

Arneldo, wat r the titles like???

[Arneldo]

No, the first eviction will be shown tomorrow I think. Somebody on BBBA said the LF will not open until tomorrow so to keep the identity of the first person to be evicted a secret.

The launch night titles had pictures of all the previous BB winner and then ended with "Who will it be in 08?". Not sure if they will stick with then titles all series, or if it was just for launch night. Also, the theme has had a make-over.

[Arneldo]

On the OS Alice appears the most popular, followed by Rory. Saxon has the least amount of votes.

Travis is the person people want to go, followed by Terri.

[telefan]

Somebody on BBBA said the LF will not open until tomorrow so to keep the identity of the first person to be evicted a secret.

wats the LF??

[Arneldo]

LF is Live Feed.

The evictee would have already left the house, as they had to decide by sunrise.

Also, BB said this would be the first of several snap eviction.

Next Sunday, the top 3 online auditionees will enter the house.

[Bigbrotherin]

Why Travis? The guy with the squeeky voice?

[Captain.Remy]

Haha, that is so blatantly fake. It's obvious a floor plan of a regular house: there's no diary room, camera runs, it shows stairs and is clearly not big enough for the housemates.

It's actually from this website: http://www.homeplanpro.com/hppoffers/custom_floor_house_plan/index.html

[greggurski]

Can anybody give me an idea of what torrent sites this will be on?

Thanks!

[Simple_Plan]

The show is being uploaded from a capper in australia called tvguy and it was going alright untill the upload speed went to 10kb/s with 200MB to go and it is a about 5 hours from when this happened. 10pm sounds about right maybe a little later.

And there is only one person that caps the show and then uploads.

Nope, there are at least three people. Some people cap it from US.
