Channel five, see guardian article, are in talks to buy BB with all house as it is. So location won't change then.

If they did change location where would you like them to locate to and what type of 'house'?

If they where to change the location, be easy enough to sell the land which BB is built upon i suppose. Can't see the reason as to what the point of moving it would be but oh wel..

Next door to me, I could watch the eviction from my room

[BringItOn]

I was hoping the house was going to blow up or something at the end to make it "go out with a bang" that would of been good

That's only a good idea if they leave some of the HMs in there.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I want it to move to be honest.

Fresh start.

New location, brand new house

Bollocks.

The house is being DEMOLISHED on the 13th September.
So they have no choice

[janaddy86]

Makes some sense to keep the existing one but I'd prefer a fresh new house as well to be honest.

Shouldn't be too long before we get to know what's happening.

****** the guardian, it says in the contract:

The Big Brother house must be demolished by September 13th 2010.

It's been like that for years.
Who gives two sh*ts what some newspaper says.

The date you are thinking of is September 30th.

[janaddy86]

And how do you know if they haven't negotiated an extension to the planning permission? Or even got a new one?

No need to get offensive with your forum posts is there.

The fact is the talks include keeping the house where it is.

The house may be demolished but it doesn't mean they can't still use the site

[ILoveTRW]

They should build a new house in a foreign country, somewhere hot.

[reece(:]

They need to change a good few elements of the format.

[Barbie]

September the 30th sounds more likely, to tear down the house in 3 days after it ends is unlikely
I wonder why that was in the contract anyway, and would it have been if Channel 4 continued their contract.

So if channel 5 take it then they may keep the house.

[serensilver]

in my street hehe

It was more to do with the council planning permission for the house and studio being built apparently, not the contract between Ch4 and Endemol.

Endemol have apparently since negotiated a potential 3 year extension on the planning permission. Nothing concrete yet though.

Okay but some articles have told us they were just discussing this and leases and this may even come down to 'buying the guts' (to put it in an ugly way) which may end up elsewhere,
but,
From what I can see here is just more 'talks' but we are not actually seeing any kind of real solid intent to first buy the house and lease the property and then set up shop at the same location.

That IS one interesting idea but my guess it that it won't happen. They may very well buy the catwalks, cables and wall fixtures to take with them to an entirely different location.

My pick?
They buy (lease) a mansion in the countryside. I am definitely interested in a BB that takes place in a real house (or by this I mean the HMs see a real house).
Not sure all the health and safety implications but I'd like to see that tried.
and,
This will sound strange now but I actually believe a sort of secret remote location might just work.
Farmers fields around it.
This doesn't give us the 'roaring crowd' outside but then maybe we are tired of that now?

Well maybe they will just revamp the same location but so far I wouldn't get too excited that is happening.
