BR
According to the Big Brother website applications for the fifth series will be available from the end of January, with info also set to be shown on C4.
Let's round up a few early rumours:
On the one hand, Big Brother is said to be moving to a new location in Epsom, Surrey, but on the other, they've counter-acted these rumours by stressing they will stay at Elstree.
In a recent interview Davina has stated she will be hosting Big Brother 5. Don't know for sure if Dermot will still be around, but during Shattered he talked about Big Brother as if he would be involved this summer.
The series may not run in it's usual May-July slot with C4 having difficulty scheduling with oppositions from Euro 2004 in June/July and the Olympics in August. There are some suggestions on forums it may not begin till the Autumn, but I think this is unlikely.
I'd guess the series may run in a slot similar to the first series, beginning in July after Euro 2004. Euro 2004 evening matches kick-off at 7.45pm, so with the risk of extra time and penalties, that will lead into the 10pm slot. However, as Greece has a +2 hr time difference it will be midnight in Athens when it's 10pm here, so Olympic competition for the day would be finished.
Probably too early to discuss changes to the format. I personally think they need some, but I've learned from last year to expect the status quo.
Also note that Big Brother Sweden is back. ( http://www.bigbrother.se/ ) Anyone Swedish enough round here to understand what's going on. There is a link called Control Room (2nd from top) that links to a seperate window with a 3D graphic of the house divided by a red wall - have they got a series 3 style divide?
