I was helping them out with the bedside cabinets for, I'd expect, the bedroom we haven't seen any pictures of yet. They're actually using bathroom cabinets, but they do look good. Curved corners, as ever.

The people I've been speaking to at Endemol are, as you'd expect, very very busy at the moment.

Looking forward to the show, just over a week to go now.. Very Happy

Seen a couple of versions of the Big Brother eyes promos which began on C4 yesterday. Very good, and would make very good idents.

Maybe C4 should consider having some sort of dance track playing as cameras zoom over the UK landscape to reveal the C4 logo etched into the ground.

Also, did anyone see the BBC's advert for The Mirror, sorry, highly educational Tabloid Tales, about Jade Goody last night. Was quite interesting actually and showed how the press act when housemates are in the house, and why they had a change of heart when Jade went from pig to star.

And although I'm not a fan of Jade, not once did she complain about the affect Big Brother had on her life, or blame editing for her reputation in the press.

Another channel tries to cash in on Big Brother next Thursday at Five show The Curse of Big Brother at 9pm, where bitter ex-contestants will blame the show for ruining their lives. The cynical amongst us may think it's just a ploy to get us to watch 4 celebrities undergoing Colonic Irrigation in Celebrity Detox Camp immediately after at 10pm.

Not to mention "The Trouble With Reality TV" tonight on Sky One.

Funny to see the BBC, five and Sky One giving up on the usual pretention that popular shows on other channels don't exist and actually getting a slice of the Big Brother pie.

Big Brother will run for at least four more series according to Digital Spy today, with C4 claiming that although ratings may dip for the C4 show, it is worth keeping due to the ratings on E4.

Also, a "teenage" Big Brother is being considered to air before Christmas.

PS: Anyone got a good map of last years UK house, and any other houses from around the world.

I drew this one in Paint last year and I think it's been on a couple of websites since.

From the pictures and info released so far, it appears as it both bedrooms and the diary room will be in the area where the rich bedroom was and the bathroom, with the poor bedroom and poor garden cut off (on the right hand side). Could this area include a surprise (alot on the forums about a tunnel?).

Also, the eagle eyed can spot the diary room in the picture - looks like they are using the same "eye" switch again:

Im not sure having the show on every year until 2008 is a good idea - most people will be sick of the show after a few more series.

If they keep supplying alcohol at the rate they did last year, they'll soon have people being sick on the show.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Anyone seen the bloody big DOG they have on E4, it's the logo with -(no of days) underneath. It's probably twice as big/wide as the E4 logo, it sits to the right of the screen. It's so distracting that you just can't watch anything without that big DOG in the way.

Why can't E4 just do what Channel 4 are doing and just go ahead with Big Brother break bumpers instead of losing potential audiences for the week.

Probaly because E4 is the Big Brother channel - it shows a lot more (or less depending on your point of view - shots of people asleep makes for riveting viewing </irony>) coverage than C4.

I was referring to the size of the DOG. I know I won't be watching E4 this week because the DOG is so big, unless they have changed it since last night, that I will not watch the channel until the DOG is gone. I don't mind other E4 DOGs where they other the writing on the left hand size but this DOG is a big bi*ch of a DOG!
