Big Brother 2014 contestants ‘set to have access to Twitter to find out who’s popular’

[Josy]

We already know this because of the other articles, it's a stupid idea and goes completely against the 'no outside contact' rule.

If that happens they've officially killed BB. They can go ahead and name it something else

[Jack.]

A screen with a live poll on wouldn't be that bad. Showing who is getting the most mention on twitter but I don't want housemates reading tweets in the house tbh.

Perhaps they should sack Emma Willis and make Kitten Pinder the host and call it Big Sister.

[Josy]

Unless of course theres some kind of twist involved in it like them allowing the housemates to think they are using twitter but really its all a lie or something like that, would probably be too much hassle to pull it off though.

Actually that wouldn't be too bad an idea, something like those social media graphs Christian Howes used to create for BOTS (miss than man). Ties in with the technology theme and would actually probably inspire some of the dullards to make a ****ing effort and do something for once. Win-win

This is most likely I don't think they will let them go on twitter them self

[Daniel.]

I hope this series flops

What if the housemates get power for being the most talked about on social media? And that'd tie in with the viewers having the chance to partake in the power stuff as well, if they want their favourites to get the power they have to talk about them on different platforms and stuff

[Jordan.]

What if they just have a normal classic series that doesn't need any stupid outside involvement to cause drama

i just think producers will twist it and they will be tweeting stuff to the housemates saying other housemates have done stuff

that might actually be pretty good (with the housemates not knowing how it all worked)

That would be a good twist actually depending on what the power was..I still don't think any housemate should ever have access to social media or any other outside info the way we have been led to believe with the latest articles though.

[Josy]

Stop spamming with that pic it's completely ignorant when other members are trying to have a discussion.

[Samm]

I don't want a BBUS theme, I don't mind having bits of it like HoH but I want BBUK to stay as a reality show not a game show

I want a BBUS format too but I'm beginning to get doubtful that it'll be anything near it...

I would actually be alright with the idea I just suggested because as I said it would kinda force the people who are doing **** all into making an effort which is never a bad thing. I would hope the power would be HoH then of course though...

pre BB13 was great, I was hyped for like 3 months straight and it actually had good build up news

If there's no house vote (combined with a public vote, I accept they'll never ditch that totally) then there's no point in having HoH and/or Veto because any game play they're trying to create will be pointless and meaningless. If that's the case I hope they don't bother

Agree with both of these.

I was still depressed @ Brian since I had enough of him messing up the eviction shows

[Daniel.]

I just don't want a repeat of BB14 where the theme flopped and made an excuse for contrived twists.

[LaLaLand]

If the poll was "rigged" it'd be good, like for example you vote for the least popular and it gets reversed in the house, so the most disliked think they're the favourites and act up - I'd like that.

[Vicky.]

The ones that are popular on twitter are usually utter dicks that noone else likes..so it wont give away too much really. Dont like the idea of this though
