i didnt see this posted so sorry if it has. i found it on AOL.

Big Brother could turn into "Big Sister" when it returns to TV screens on Wednesday night. According to predictions, the first 12 contestants in the house will all be women.

It could be a case of ladies first, with the Daily Mirror reporting that the eighth series of the Channel 4 show will begin with a girls-only house.

According to the newspaper, the situation will remain the same until Friday when just one man - "a real hunk" - is brought in. More men will be brought in after a couple of weeks, it was reported.

The newspaper quoted an insider as saying "It will be a hilarious start. The girls' behaviour will be fascinating. The first man in will be a real hunk - so the girls can flirt and fight over him."

A romance-filled series would be a contrast to the race row which dominated the recent celebrity version of the show.

Media watchdog Ofcom criticised Channel 4 last week over its handling of the row, which prompted more than 45,000 complaints from viewers about the treatment of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty by housemates Jade Goody, Danielle Lloyd and Jo O'Meara.

Channel 4 are being forced to broadcast an apology at the beginning of the launch show, - to be followed by another on Thursday's highlights programme, and a third on Friday night.

The Commission for Racial Equality has vowed to closely monitor this year's housemates.

The identities of the contestants will be revealed in the live launch show but they include a member of the Women's Institute, a political protester, a relative of a Premiership footballer, a former lap dancer and the show's oldest housemate.

The Premiership footballer's relative is reportedly Charlie Richardson, the cousin of Manchester United player Kieran Richardson.

i know, its just the worst!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:s leep:

Sounds weird but I was actually thinking about that to myself only an hour ago. I know this one will be different and with the softer touch.

It can still be very good or even the best.

Oooh if that were true I wouldn't be able to wait until Friday as I'd be desperate for male housemates to drool over.

I could drool tonight, you just never know!

[Matt08]

I don't think they'll ever put all of the same sex housemates in there, and plus it'd ruin the series.

Well after a racism row

(sexism by denying so many males a chance to enter the house, just because they are male)

That's a very good point.

i think if this happens this is going to esculate into a massive deal like the racism row personally! but this time it will be - "Big brother are sexist" and i dont want that to be on the front page of the news for the next couple of weeks.
