you can see the walkway, but not the side of the house/entrances

Omg am I seeing wrong or is most of the runway at ground level?

Wish I hadn't seen this tho, feel like it's taken a little chunk out of my launch excitement

[Henry2014]

Don't think you can tell! Cannot wait to see it- graphics lights and everything else!!!!!

[Gstar]

Never thought i'd see the day the rotating eye being laid to rest

[Henry2014]

Is there a chance that eye at the end of the catwalk turns??? I remember making one like that on a sketch up model a few years back (I've never posted!)

[Will.]

It will be interesting to see the stairs which the HM's will enter on, it kind of looks like there's still a bit of work to be done to the set?

Looks like it will be a bit similar to BB Australia

No, it's raised. You can see the black parts underneath

But it looks like it's closer to ground? Like BB11 kind of height?

Just half the size and with a tenth of the audience

[Will.]

They obvs don't have any more house pics, this is clearly a zoom in of the garden pic:

They did those countdown teasers for CBB17 and they looked really cool. But it's a shame they didn't start it from 7 days to go

I can't really tell tbh. The top of the crowd fence reaches to the top of the runway, but that could always be cause it's pushed quite close to it. We'll get an idea of how high it is tomorrow during the launch

And BB11 was like a carpet

[Oaker]

Is the set even finished yet?

[Jake.]

the walkway looks just about ground level, much lower than before

Added some photos of the complete set in the OP to round off the thread!

(I'm glad that we've kept this archive - I sort of knew that the producers wouldn't show off anything to do with the construction so I'm glad that we've been able to keep tabs on it).

It's amazing to look at the transition over time in the OP, I can't believe we now have the finished product after like three months of waiting

Thanks for keeping this updated!
