Default Have they started work on the new set?
There was a lot of scaffolding next to the exterior set when they did the arial shots, whilst the fireworks were going off.

Don't remember seeing it there last year.

The scaffolding has been there since 2011. The current C5 set is practically a building site with a few tacky LED lights.

I don't remember it at all.

I know the set has a lot of scaffolding but this looked new.

I hope the set will be completely different because I'm so over the stage we have now

If anything it was more visible in 2011 as you could practically see it holding the TV screen in place at the facade of the house.

Most of it located behind the stands to hold them together.

They're still waiting for approval from the council for the plans so no. That'll be for a separate studio that Elstree Studios are building where the mound used to be.

Someone filmed on periscope before the final went live and the warm up guy said that they were starting construction tomorrow on the set. There's a thread on Digital Spy. I'm new to the forum so Hi everyone.

I made a comment actually on Twitter. The poles and things right behind the audience stands were within the new boundaries for Big Brother's set so they could potentially be the start of the new studio for Big Brother.

When I went to Megan's eviction this series they weren't there, so they've shot up recently.

I almost feel like that shot was deliberate by one of the directors to get us talking

But yeah, surely they need the plans to be approved first before they can press on? If the decision is made in March then **** that's gonna have to be some quick turnaround time...

Welcome to the forum! I've just found the Periscope - the crowd/warm-up guy . Haven't quite made it to the part you've just specified - if anyone else wants to watch: https://www.periscope.tv/w/1yNGaDWeErqKj

Sounds like they're getting rid of the whole set and rebuilding

Lets hope they stands are gone for good.

There's a screenshot of the scaffolding shot from the Vaudeville finale in the spoiler:

Spoiler:



Here is a screenshot of the scaffolding from the UK vs USA finale to compare:



The bottom left part in the Vaudeville screenshot looks like it's already been there for a while (you can just about see the corner of it in the UK vs USA screenshot), but the taller part at the back in the Vaudeville screenshot looks quite new - perhaps that is part of the new house. We'll just have to wait and see in the summer.
