Love your ideas, why couldn't we have had this instead of BB8

Great ideas! I can tell you've put millions of thought into this, more than the real producers anyway :rolleyes:

WEEK 10
And the Executive Producer is bored of his job and resigns. :xyxwave: LOL!

Not quite... but it's not as easy as it looks this Big Brother lark - but hey, I'm not getting paid.


Saturday Challenge: The Chain Gang
Eight housemates, one chain - as long as it takes. The housemates will be chained together until just one remains. They are free to move around the house, but remain chained together until they quit. The winner will get a phone call home.

Weekly Task: Watch and Learn
This week the housemates will have to learn a routine and then perform it on Wednesday. It could be anything - I'm thinking something along the lines of that treadmill music video a few other BB's have done.



Eviction 9: Day 69
Normal noms, normal eviction

I like the treadmill task, would've loved to have seen something like that in BB7 with Nikki, haha.

But I think you're underestimating the housemates' endurance - the chained task could quite easily go on for days on end, unless it was made more of an ordeal. Either that or the HMs would come to a consensus and all agree not to bother with the task to allow a particular HM a call home. Same with the mini task, there may only be a few HMs that can drive, and they may already have a better car!

Just shows you that being a taskmaster is not as easy as we may think.

Well BB would have temptations to make people quit. Hopefully in this case though the housemates chosen would have some endurance, unlike last year when they'd have given up after 15 minutes.


WEEK 11: Thank god it's nearly over!!!

OK, not going to go in to specifics this week - but for the Saturday Challenge the HMs would have the chance to win a games room, which would be a conversion of the upper half of the bedroom, now that only beds for 7 are required.

Weekly Task: Beat Big Brother
There will be seven challenges to which housemates must challenge Big Brother. Each time BB is defeated, they win food for a day - so win all seven they get food for the week. Any days they don't have food they can only use the mystery tin cans.

Day 76: Eviction
The tenth eviction.


Now six remain, and they'll be a double eviction next week.

WEEK 12/13: THE FINAL FORTNIGHT

Saturday: Day 77 - How low will you go?
One guaranteed place in the final week is up for grabs - but at a price.

The housemates will be put into separate booths so they can't see what each other are doing. Each housemate has a button.

The jackpot stands at £250,000 - but the housemates willing to sacrifice the most off the jackpot will win a guaranteed place in the final week.

The jackpot will begin falling by £1000 a second. The housemates must press their buzzer when the jackpot falls to a level they'll no longer accept. The amount they stop at is the amount they will get if they win.

The last person to opt out wins a guaranteed place in the final - and also, if they win, they will get the full £250,000. But they won't know that until after the competition.


Nominations then take place as usual, with three or more facing a double eviction on Friday.


WEEK 13: The Final Four
The final weeks of BB1, BB2 and BB3 were classics - just a handful of housemates remaining forced to get on with each other. And who say's it wasn't entertaining - 7m were watching in the last week of BB3.

IMO since the number of HMs in the last week has increase, they've become less memorable - especially with six as that allowed HMs to remain in their groups, rather than forcing them together. And everyone, including Davina and BB themselves, agrees six on the last night is too many.

So we've got four their until Day 90, when one will become the winner. How much they win depends on the outcome of the task in Week 12.


THE END.

Ive waited for all 13 weeks to be posted, so I could read it all at once. Its amazing! Really well done, some truly good ideas here.

God, usually when I read back my own ideas some time later I'm usually quite critical of what I wrote at the time - but I'm quite happy with that, even if I do say so myself.

I must say though I have loved BB9 - not been happy with the outcomes of the evictions and think the show is suffering for it now, but on the whole the format and the housemates has been far superior to the last couple of years. Except for the fact we still have seven hundred and twenty six housemates remaining with less than three weeks to go.


Anyway, to update - the schedule:

Sunday: 9-10.30pm - highlights from Fri/Sat.

Mon-Thu: 10.00-10.50pm - highlights from the last 24 hours. I think the show would benefit from being slightly shorter and more focused - there is too much padding in the hour long version - and as 4 minutes of the time cut off is ads, we'd only be losing 6-8 minutes of action from the house. I think ending slightly earlier would help boost ratings too.

Friday: 9-10.30pm - an all in one eviction spectacular. It begins with profiles of the nominees and includes some friends and family chat, a weekly psychological feature and a look back at the week, plus around 40-minutes of highlights from Thursday.

The lines close around 10pm and we catch up with how the housemates have been preparing for the nights' eviction before the evictee is announced and booted out straight away for their interview with Davina. All 100% live.

Having it all in one slot too means it's a bit more flexible so things can be dropped or rearranged to allow time for a second eviction or new housemates moving in etc.

Viewers get Saturday night off, though Diary Room Uncut would air on E4, with just one edition a week.


BBLB - as it is now, Sundays on T4, weeknights on E4. Back to 7.30pm though.

Big Mouth - I believe firmly the eviction should be the climax of the week both for the audience and also the evictee. They shouldn't be carted around the spin offs straight after, they can do that in the next week. Therefore Big Mouth would air Monday to Thursday at 10.50pm.

Big Brother Live - Live streaming is the soul of the show, and it's an insult how much it's been scaled back this year, both on E4 and with the axing of the web stream. Without doubt the web stream would return, as would E4's daytime streaming.

I've no problem with E4 Music airing for 3 hours or so in the morning while the HMs are still asleep, but from 9/10am it should be live streaming through to E4's regular schedule around 4.30pm.


Big Brother's Big Ears - To be honest I think this is a spin-off too far, but it's actually been quite good - especially when Iain Lee was away. I think though it could be sacrificed and it's better to have the evictee appearing on BBLB and Big Mouth rather than on "internet radio", with perhaps podcast versions of BBLB and Big Mouth being made instead.

bloody amezzin!

A few of the tasks confused me, but probably cos its 6am.


just wow!

oh, the word bruddy is a bad one.

I built a two story house sort of...its amazing how much the house shape changes!

I did like a balcony ala US HoH room....with the stairs inside...so you walk up the stairs, along the walkway then thru the door....that makes no sense!

But yes....and again, amazing brekkie!

I know - even just putting one room upstairs would make the house feel very different. It opens up the height a bit in the living area too - the ceilings are a bit too low IMO at the moment.

Have you posted your house anywhere Llamajohn - or are you actually a builder and have just "built a two story house" because that's the day job! :bigsmile:

I did it on the Sims and it shall stay there :p

I can just imagine evictees walking up the stairs, and waving to the housemates from the balcony...and arguments involving stairs and different floors are always better.

Ooh, I have visions of Darnell being pushed down the stairs and causing himself an injury! :spin2:

Unfortunately I also have visions of the architect getting his arse sued off as a result! :cloud:

Loving the plans as usual Brekkie! I really like the idea to have the Eviction the last episode of the week :)

Has Matt almost finished the house btw?

I can't stop oming back and commenting!

The eye, LOVE IT
advertising campaign, simple and effective!
The other stuff, AMAZING.
The house, WOW, just maybe get rid of the stairs in the bedroom...still WOW.

and your week 10 task sounds familiar :conf2:

I'm not sure Matt ever even started it. Builders hey - knew I should have got the Poles in!

Mmmm.... keep your eyes peeled...

Re-reading this a few months on I'm still quite impressed with myself - but although it was perfect last year for BB9, I'm not so sure it would meet the grade for BB10 - a much bigger revamp is required.

I might pick this thread up though and do a Celebrity BB series plan linked to the original series.


I've decided to get started on my Celeb BB plan and so it doesn't get too confusing I'll be posting it in a separate thread:

Brekkies' CELEBRITY Big Brother 2009

what a load of ****

Thats not very nice:nono:

its exactly what he said about mine :xyxwave:

Yours was **** though. Mine isn't, but obviously you don't take criticism well.

There's no need for insults:nono:

i take cristism very well, i ask people to give me it most of the time.

But what you gave me was not cristism

12 years on I'm quite impressed with my efforts here - I think something similar to what I suggested harking back to the origins of the show and keeping a core simple format is what a revival needs, but with enough competitive twists to liven it up a bit.

I did a Celeb BB follow up too: https://www.thisisbigbrother.com/for...270&highlight=

Nice work There

Nice work There mate 😘😘
