A three-quarter way house :fc:

You know what's dumb af though, and I hate to beat a dead horse. But this twist not having Live Feed is really really stupid. It's going to be hard to keep up with both houses through the Highlights, even if the twist turns out to be really good, this just hinders it a lot. We won't be able to see as much as we should from both houses.

Basically BB8's halfway house twist mixed with BB10's "you need to earn HM status" twist

The thing it has over both of those though is this will actually feel like a legit house, and on par with the Main House. The halfway house was just something that was just sort of there. It is in the same twist in concept, but I think the execution will hopefully be a lot better to watch, and much more exciting. That's if they nail it.

Idk what to think.

I do like the idea of people stealing peoples' places.

Maybe 'The Others' will be a mixture of 'celebs' and family members.

Relieved it's not celebs

I really hope it isn't that though. That'd remove the entire point of evicting.

ken, jade, sophia & david after their spot in the main house?

This is also something I'm concerned about - how are they going to cover two houses with two sets of housemates with only 45 minutes a night? There's going to be a lot of flipping between the two which will more than likely get very confusing (and possibly switch a lot of people from the show). It's just baffling that rather than expanding it for a twist like this, they've decided to cut back the tiny amount that we had in the first place.

Aisleyne, Nikki, Helen and Brian will be sacrificed to bring them back from the dead.

Yeah, I hope if they're not going to have Live Feed, they will at least be a bit more active with the Clips and social media updates. A quick 2 Minute clip every few hours or not even that is really disappointing. I wouldn't mind no Live Feed as much if they actually provided lengthy clips of interesting footage not in the Highlights every day on YouTube.

Jack. 01-06-2016 08:03 PM

It sounds alright nothing exciting :idc:

Apparently it's been reported that it'll be a different house that's focused on each night (i.e the main house on one night and "the others" house on the next). It's an awful way of working around it, but without a Live Feed it's the only way I can see them pulling it off.

They should have two highlight shows every night tbh. I don't care about BOTS.

Don't like the sound of that at all, they'll be recapping for 2 days in each show

So long as it doesn't end up with more "let's evict four of them who weren't nominated!" results...

It sounds promising, but equally as easy to completely screw up

News article - Other House Twist Revealed
 
James has posted a new TiBB frontpage article.

Channel 5 have revealed there will be two houses for the news series of Big Brother, starting 7th June 2016.

The housemates living in the main house will have no knowledge of the other house, and other housemates who will attempt to steal places in the main Big Brother House.

It was.....

Aslong as its not celebs or ex housemates I'll be fine with it

Jordan. 01-06-2016 08:25 PM

sounds okay apart from them being 'connected' to the housemate

Gstar 01-06-2016 08:40 PM

Intruiged by the twist

This would be epic with live feed, giving you the option of what house's feed you wanna view :(

Drew. 01-06-2016 08:42 PM

The lack of live feed recently hasn't really bothered me but like Germyle said this sounds like it'd be perfect for it

Dunno what to make of it though. Sounds like there are a lot of things they could do to make it bad, especially focusing on 1 house a night. And the possibility of 9 weeks of them just plotting and BB forcing on drama and twists every day doesn't excite me

Rob! 01-06-2016 08:43 PM

I think it has the potential to be brilliant. Whether it will be or not remains to be seen.

Positive result on polls SHOCKER
