1. It’s all about the POWER
A show insider told OK! Online: “This year, we wanted to really focus on what Big Brother is essentially about – power and control. We want to offer it to individuals, half the house, and even the viewers.”
The source added that different people – or groups of people – will be able to win power and use it to manipulate the house in a way that “only Big Brother has done in the past”.
We like.

2. The housemates will still be cut off from the outside world – but not all the time
“The house will always be a secure bubble but housemates can receive info from the outside world when BB sees fit,” said our mole.
“Big Brother will use technology to his advantage.”

3. It’s Hunger Games-meets-Minority Report
Emma Willis told OK! Online that the house will be "modern, with futuristic clean lines and technology. We've just seen pics and it's a bit like Minority Report”.
Both she and Rylan agreed that the show will also feel a bit Hunger Games.
“But without the death,” added Emma, helpfully.

4. There may be tablets and other gadgets in the house
“Power is knowledge, so there will be knowledge aids,” hinted our source. “We want to open up the house more than we have done in the past.”

5. The house is going to send its residents crazy
“I’ve seen pictures of the house and it’s very clinical,” admitted Rylan. “This house is very futuristic, very technical, so it keeps you on your toes because there's always something to look at, feel and touch.”

6. It’ll still be good old BB
The insider reassured OK! Online that show bosses won’t be “reinventing the wheel".
“The housemates won’t be a bunch of boffins just because there’s some gadgets in there,” said the source.
“They’ll still be typical Big Brother housemates from all walks of life."

7. The house has more surprises in store
"There are nooks and crannies and surprising elements to the house that will reveal themselves," promised our spy.

Bring. it. on.

Pics of the house?

[Jay.]

It actually sounds good imo, I'm looking forward to it. I don't mind the outside world stuff, still entertaining for me! Can't wait.

[Glenn.]

Let's face it, as much as it annoys people, it isn't the same show it was when I started. It's evolved. As long as the contact with the outside world serves as a means to mess with the housemates, I'm fine with that.

Yes but when they say:

"This year, we wanted to really focus on what Big Brother is essentially about – power and control."

It's essentially about Big Brother having the power and control, not any of the housemates.

Except it says it will be giving the housemates and viewers certain power that "in the past only Big Brother has had."

Plus Big Brother should really always have power and control anyway lol. Just shows the housemates aren't as respectful of BB anymore and they no longer see BB as authority like back in the day if a housemate was given a punishment they shat themselves lol

I'm agreeing with Glenn

It really is no different to if they do it correctly to showing some HMs some of the others audition clips like Jackie viewing Callum's last year, how good was that.

Do you? Phew that's a relief

[SocietyIsRuined]

They may mean contact with the outside world as in what happened in Big Brother Canada this year when they had to give something up to spend minutes with a relative in a secret room.

That is more of a one off thing though.. this sounds more like something that will last the duration of the show.

[Loukas]

If housemates have access to social media i'm gonna be pissed off. When they say use technology, i hope they mean things that don't allow access to the outside. E.G iPods and Kindles ect (which still would be sh*t)

Of course it'll be social media.. reading books on a kindle isn't much of a twist

[Lowkey]

Mess.

[erinp5]

Knowledge aids!!!! what a pile of sh*t.
I will watch the launch but this is not the BB I know and love .Time to move on me thinks .

[Daniel.]

[Josy]

Not having that

What a mess. I don't get it. The producers know the fans hate it, so why do it?
