Yeah thats Elstree film studio. The house is a wee bit down. I cant hand everything to you on a platter you know?

For some reason im getting something different than normal for the house. Theirs no garden or walkway or nothing. Looks like the newest updated images were from when it was under construction but even still it looks weird.

Try typing in 'big brother elstree' and scroll down through the options until you get to the blue placemarks that will show you EXACTLY where it is.

No way. I dont know what the hell it is. Theirs not even a walkway or nothing , and that building looks very derelict. Its like somebody plucked the BB house out of the ground!

But thats definately where the house SHOULD be , no doubt about it. Look at the forest behind and the little road the cars drive up.

But the shape , the walkway , everything , its like a different building.

Tis' weird! Its like someone edited the image!

Google Earth takes satellite images from different times, not always recent.

Before they had the image of what looked like the BB6 or 7 house but now they've changed the image to the time before it was built for some reason.
