Credit to Zakman for drawing attention to this the other day, the great news is it has now been confirmed in his RHAP interview!

For anyone unfamiliar, he's a stand-up comic turned producer, who works on the challenge team and is the creative genius behind some of the best competition builds in the franchise I had hoped he would be leading the task team (which is in desperate need of an overhaul), but he's actually been hired as a Senior Producer!

This is really, really positive news (even if the end is nigh) - I hope he has a notable influence on the show's feel and direction

You can listen here! They talk more BBUK at 25:18 (with other bits peppered throughout):

Perched for Cassandra's Dad to come and win a shopping task for the HMs

[Mokka]

Marsha the Moose is going over seas!!!

[Mokka]

Not to be confused with that bloody moose Marsh

[Mokka]

Also... I have absolutely loved Trevor Boris for more than a decade now
This is exceptional news !!

[Jack_]

The funny thing is they took inspiration from BBUK for Marsha (they talk about this in the podcast), he voiced it, and now he's ended up as a producer over here

[zakman440]

Just came on to post about this - such brilliant news. Really don’t want to get my hopes up but it looks like this could be a brilliant summer of Big Brother - and what a way to round it off if it really is going to be the last.

Wasn't he also the "tour guide" in that task from BBCan5 they copied from BBUK Timewarp?

[Wizard.]

Didn’t he also produce competitions for BBUS18? He gets around a bit! But perched for the housemates to dress up as giant Oreos and dunk themselves into milk!

Do you mean 6? There was an HoH comp this season where a group of "tourists" or some **** stormed the house for a party, and he led them

Yeah, he worked on BBUS for a while. Unfortunately he didn't lead the challenge team so his influence wasn't really that noticeable, which is why I was hoping he'd be leading our task team

Hopefully though now he's a senior producer he might have an influence on the general style/editing of the show. He talked in the podcast about BBCan being really good at cold opens (which they are), I'd LOVE it if we came anywhere close to that

Oh I thought Oliver meant the freeze Task in 5

Excuse my lack of knowledge, what's a cold open?

[Wizard.]

Yeah wtf a cold open also hoping the live shows are more organised like BBCAN

[Jack_]

A cold open (also called a teaser, or just a cold, especially in production circles) is a narrative tactic used in television and/or films. It is the technique of jumping directly into a story at the beginning of the show before the title sequence or opening credits are shown.

Basically he's referring their high production pre-title intros they do for the premiere and finale, which are godly

And he might've meant BB5, tbf I can't remember

[Nicky91]

yes this is some positive news now

[Wizard.]

Is he doing CBB and Civillian?

[Jack_]

Thankfully yes, he's here till November

He said in the podcast "by the time I've left the UK I'll have done 10 seasons in three countries"

I hear good stuff about this guy in terms of tasks so looking positive.

[Jake.]

Anywhere I can see this “cold open” stuff in action?
