Big Brother – Landscape Marketing – Facts & Figures
To celebrate the start of the new Big Brother series on Friday 23 May, Channel 4 has created a series of spectacular pieces of landscape art throughout the British countryside. These eye signs will also be used in on-air trails from the evening of Monday 12 May onwards. Some facts and figures about the different eye symbols created are below: Uffington White Horse, Oxfordshire – Big Brother Chalk eye · Big Brother Eye Logo marked out above the mysterious White Horse carved into the chalk hillside above the village of Uffington in Oxfordshire. · The Big Brother eye is marked using a environmentally friendly chalk based paint (not unlike the paint used for marking football pitches) · The National Trust has given Channel 4 permission to construct the eye above the chalk horse. · It will take approx eight hours to construct the eye. · The White horse is over 3000 years old. · Channel 4 will clean up with High Power jets – this alone will take 6 hours. ![]() Crop Circle eye (Private field in Oxfordshire) · Most crop circles are created in Barley fields. The Big Brother crop circle is in Rapeseed as this is the most mature crop at this time of year. · The crop circle will take 6 people a total of 7 hours to construct. · Making the crop circle plotted on spread sheets and then using a dot matrix pattern from the spread sheets complex method ![]() Cefn Sidan Beach, Camarthenshire – Big Brother Sand eye · The sand eye is 65 metres wide · Takes a crew of 6 people over 6 hours to construct. The window between high and low tide is only 8 hours – to built and photograph. · Removing dry areas of sand to create darker patterns in the wet sand produces the different shades. · Cefn Sidan Beach is in the Pembury Country Park ![]() Urquhart Castle, Scotland – Big Brother stone eye. · The eye took about 10 hours to complete using a crew of ten to construct. · Approx 15 tonnes of stone (limestone) from a local Daviot quarry Inverness quarry was delivered to the site for use on the eye. · The eye will be visible for 48 hours before being removed by the crew. · Permission from Historic Scotland · Castle overlooks Loch ness ![]() |
