A PLANNING application to house 30 temporary porta-cabins at Elstree Film Studios for the new Big Brother television series will go before councillors on Thursday.

Officers say the proposals will have no detrimental effects on residents and neighbouring properties. They recommend powers be delegated to the head of planning and building control to grant permission.

Channel 5 bought the rights to Big Brother earlier this year after Channel 4 axed the programme in 2010.

A two-year contract with producers, Endemol UK, starts with a special celebrity edition in August.

Personalities linked with the new series include X-Factor twins John and Edward Grimes, better known as Jedward, who are rumoured to have been offered £1 million to appear on the show.

The planning meeting, which is open to the public, takes place at 6pm on Thursday, July 14, at the Civic Offices, in Elstree Way.
