I think this could be a really good twist:

The launch night happens like normal, all the celebrities go in. Then there's a laminate on the table which they have to read. It says that the housemates must all be silent for as long as possible... the first person to talk will have all their clothes and luggaged removed AND will face eviction that week!!

But that's not all... no... the best bit is coming up. Once that finishes and everyone starts talkking again, Big Brother stages a fake raid in from some "terrorists". They will actually be actors, but the celebs will think that they're terrorists and the celebs will be forced to do nasty things by the terrorists and will be really scared. Big Brother could also play some siren noises into the house to pretend that there's police outside. The celebs will think that they're in a life or death situation.

Big Brother could also make sure one of the celebrities is in on the secret. So that celebrity could really be persuading the other celebs that it's a real situation and not a hoax. And to make it all seem real, that celeb would be "shot" by the terrorist out of view from the other celebs. Then on the plasma TV they would see his dead body. But in real life, the celeb would just be pretending to be dead by closing his eyes.

Imagine how scared the celebs would be !

Or a very good way to get sued and program instantly put off air...

[Stu]

So not only do you wan't to get the show thrown off air before it's time is even up, but you want to precede it with the ultra entertaining prospect of watching housemates sit around and not talk?

Jesus wept.

[Braden]

The whole terroist thing is like what they done in big brother 10

Lmao.

Err.

No.

[Brad.]

Just give up, you're terrible at making up twists

No it's different. In BB10, it was a task.

But in CBB7 it would be staged like a proper break in from some terrorists and make it seem real! And the celebs would be hostage. Not fake hostage like BB10.

Imagine how great it'd be. An amazing stunt... BB could also hire helicopters to pretend they're police helicopters. It could end up being one of the biggest hoaxes ever and CBB7 would be remembered as a classic.!!

**** in the way that you clearly have not thought this through one bit. The show would be taken off the air. The feed would be cut by regulation authorities the second the task would start, the celebrities would sue, Channel 4 would more than likely go off the air.

And you want that to happen only after we have had hours and hours of celebs sitting around not being able to talk?

Were you the guy behind Big Brother 8?

How exactly would it be taken off air? It's a hoax, it would be fake.

It would not be breaking any Ofcom regulations. The celebrities would have no basis to sue Channel 4.

How would the celebs call the police? They have no telephone and would be taken hostage into the rooms by the terrorists!

It wouldn't matter. It would still be taken off air for offence reasons. And the fact that you are tricking people into believe they are hostages. Believe it or not, people are against that.

And the celebrities can sue. They don't know it's a hoax, do they? They would each get millions for emotional damage. That's only the tip of the iceberg.

No they would expect producers to call the police,
if it carried on there's no way they would belive it was real !

It wouldn't be taken off air. You sound just like one of those Ofcom moaners who complain about anything which is merely offensive. Get a life!

The celebs can't sue. They've agreed to come on the show and experience whatever BB does to them. They've signed the contract. They can't sue on emotional damage.

Wake up... do you know how stupid you sound!!

The producers could pretend they've called the police and like I said before, they could play fake siren sounds to immitate police and have helicopters.

In a real hostage situation like that, the police wouldn't go in straight away. They would have to negotiate with the terrorists.

So they could fake a negotiation deal, like in the movies.

Imagine how great this hoax would be!

You can't tell him to get a life when you the one saying they should make fake terrorists to go into the house, that's not right.It would just be sick to watch celebrities 'think' it was real.

[BBDodge]

Who needs silent HMs on one of the few bits of live coverage on C4?

Not very great.
How long would it go on for ?.
What would be the point in it ?.
And how long will it take fully grown celebs to realixe its a hoax ?.
Jeez !

[Cody™]

The silent thing is not so good. What are we gonna watch then? People sitting around saying nothing?

And the terrorist thing has been done last summer.

[Tellymix]

What you people don't realise is that there is no live feed, so it doesn't matter about the silence thing.

BB could edit it down in the highlights show so it isn't much. Remember on one of the BBs, all the housemates didn't talk as a boycott. They edited it down, so they could do the same thing in this~!!

Merely offensive? You want the celebrities taken hostage, for real from their point of view, by what appear to be terrorists! The celebrities can sue. You don't know a single thing about this. There is no such contract that exists that they sign that allows Big Brother to do absoloutely anything they want to them. By that logic Big Brother could send in a Hell's Angel to beat the **** out of them and it would be okay 'coz they signed up for it'.

It's a stupid idea. It would get Big Brother taken off the air. Nobody in their right mind would approve it in a creative meeting. Ever. Nevermind the fact that you wan't the first few days of footage to be housemates not talking. By golly, that will drag the viewers in!

[Tellymix]

^ They'd only be silent for a couple of hours... not days!!
