Okie dokie,

These are my thoughts. As I'm only a lowly production technician by skill, I'll apply some of that knowledge. If I were working on set-design, well, specifically lighting design, I'd prefer the room to pre-exist. I'd equally prefer not to have to move a camera run, since they'd generally be designed not to be shoved around. Bearing in mind how the BB camera-runs are designed, it's highly unlikely they'd move one. So... This cuts down possibilities a bit. Of course... the BB house could always be given a second level, I doubt that very much as there's no real placing to put a set of stairs and would introduce a bunch of complications.

Ok, so, this would leave only a few possible places to put something.

Either, where the TV is/plant is.

Something at the end of the corridor

Something closer to the dining-area.. but there's two mirrors there and you'd cut off the camera run.. so I doubt that.

And of course, there's a nicely placed space towards the end of the arbour... and a suspecious number of one-way mirrors, which would suggest that there's a camera run running past the arbour, would would leave a gap.

The final two places would be either the mirror in the girl's bedroom. (I'd prefer that, myself, since that's the logical place to put a door and not mess up the rounded-covering, otherwise you're going to have to end up locking the housemates in a bedroom for hours).

And, finally.. the space between the girl's bedroom and the dining area, which if I remember correctly doesn't have a mirror in the way... and can't you just imagine that there's something running away from the door?

If you look at the map, you'll see what I mean.

The logical presumption is that it's a secret room... but if it isn't, what else could it be? Particularly, given the design of the house, I wouldn't like to add a second room, and secondly the 'teaser' advert adds the spin of... "Will the housemates lose this week, but will winning be any sweeter?"... which in my mind makes the reward some sort of double-edged sword... joining a room together? losing a room? taking something away?

Just my thoughts.
