News from Ananova today:
Big Brother 3 housemates to be kept secret
The identities of the new Big Brother housemates will be kept secret until the very last minute.
Channel 4 say this is because the contestants are entering the house live on TV.
The station wants to make the contestants' identities a surprise to everyone, including their fellow housemates.
The Big Brother 3 contestants will be shown entering the house live on Channel 4 at 9pm on May 24.
A spokesman for Big Brother told Ananova: "Nothing's going to be released before the first show. So it's a question of watching the first programme."
Contestants for Big Brother 1 and 2 were revealed prior to their first shows because they entered the houses off-camera.

Blimey, Endemol/Channel 4 really are playing things close to their chest this year, aren't they?
And this still suggests that BB3 won't be starting until 24th May - I don't know what to believe any more!
