Yup 20 people will be picked on launch to go into the house as official housemates.

Read the other bit. Brian & Cameron? This is obviously completely made up.

I would love to have 20 go in though. No disadvantage to a packed house, IMO.

20 would be too many but they've screwed up launch night anyway.

If It Is 20 Housemates, And There Is Goin To Be Returning Housemates. There Should Be 5 Old And 15 New!

What's wrong with 20. Last series, go out with a bang.

Amen. Stuff the place and cause conflicts and late, loud nights.

Better than putting in a few halfway through. And it means more midweek evictions. No negatives at all if done right.

put all 100 in that are rumoured i say! haha

Right.

I hope we don't see old housemates. Could potentially ruin the series. However, 20 housemates does seem quite a lot really, I have enough trouble learning the names of 15! It would probably be better to have a large number though, more chance of having cool characters.

there's 2 houses :D

This twist sounds mroe stupid by the second.

More hm's the better imo. :D

It would be more believable if they weren't the two winners least likely to want to go back in - there is no way Brian Dowling or Cameron Stout would ever want to go in again!

Sounds good!

20 is way too many. All the entertaining ones will be voted out first and we'll be left with the filler housemates for the last weeks of the last ever big brother.

The phrase 'Less is More' comes to mind.
