Hello everybody,
I am a Swedish guy obsessed with BB. The Swedish version ended yesterday and I am suffering from severe BB abstinence. Lucky for me that the BB Uk is about to start. I tried to follow the aussie BB but the live feed is of an extremely poor quality so I gave up. I wonder does the Uk BB have 24/7 live feed on the internet like the Swedish BB? I have seen some ppl here talk about the Swedish BB so I will post some pics of the cute and worthy winner Carolina. Actually you guys could have followed her through the internet, most of the time she spoke in English because of her boyfriend who was French and didn’t speak Swedish.
Watcher - BBUK does have live 24/7 streaming on http://www.channel4.com/bigbrother but you have to pay for it via either 4 Broadband or Realplayer.
How did BB Sweden play out this year. We discussed it at launched and tried to work out what was happening, as we saw you have the house split into two, like has been done here before. Any chance of a quick summary of the series?

Certainly, here is a short summary
The house was split in two only for the two first weeks. It turned out to be a dull side and a wild side though it was unintentional. Four guys from the wild side decided to defy the BB rules and carried out a revolution by jumping over to the other side. The initiator of the idea was taken out from the house immediately and the rest had to return to their original side. Three days later after the first eviction the dismissed guy was allowed to return due to his huge popularity and at the same time the wall which divided the house was taken away. I don’t know if the removal of the wall was planned or if it became pointless since most of the house mates had already seen each other. A week later three house mates dropped out and one had to be taken out after an innocent playful incident had been blown up to a sexual abuse in the tabloids. But the show survived thanks to a funny French guy and the beautiful and charismatic Carolina who became the winner. The new thing this year was the shop where the HM could buy cigarettes, non-alcoholic drinks, sweets, ice cream and food for the money they get depending how well they have accomplished their weekly assignments. They failed completely one week earning no money at all. They had basic food delivered but no luxury products such as cigarettes. This years BB set a new standard in the sex field, we could see a pair having sex openly and in light in the shower room. Of course this was not shown on the regular TV show but was seen by thousands on live feed.
Yep - caught tbe break flash last night during Frasier. Looks brilliant. Just two weeks to go!!!

PS: The ads for "Black Friday" are brilliant to.
What's Black Friday, I may sound stupid here. I know about the planned super friday, or have they changed the name of it due to the ned of friends and the sinister look to this years big brother?
Maybe it's so sinister as they're going to be treated like prison inmates or something, now that would surprise the 12!
Personally, I don't think this would be hugely beneficial as the 10pm slot is far less competitive than at 9pm, although this year News at Ten's axing means more competition at 10pm.
Also two new shows on E4 at 7pm. Debate show E4orum airs Mon/Wed/Fri, while Diary Room Uncut airs Tue/Thu.
If it did move, I'd suggest showing it in hour long blocks three days a week (Sun, Tue, Thu) with the eviction on Friday.
