Nikki knows her. And I think Glyn may know here also. Pete was looking at the big screen in the garden and he was pointing out people he knew. They all seemed to see people that they recognised.

I smell Shenanegins.

According to Davina she was a standby on BB5, and her husband bought 60 boxes of kitkats, still failed to win a golden ticket, so bought one for 4 grand.

Shes clearly fairly desperate to be on the show.

She has her own bedroom, bathroom and has to use the golden toilet and the golden shower. She's also the only one who will nominate next week and her nominations will definitely be up for the vote.

Someone (I suspect Grace but defo female) suggested they ALL tell her. Not trying to improve their odds there, whoever it was...

Out of the entire nation they still managed to send in an attention seeking aspiring Big Brother contestant. And she has just announced that she does modeling for a living.

Nice one Big Brother.

Shes a relatively geriatric model to be fair.

But then if you are gonna allow them sold on teh internet and whatnot, then all the mega desperados are gonna seize the moment, arent they.

They payed a lot of money for their tickets. Number 26 payed £800 . so really they wernt the ticket winners after all.
I think they should have a seperate dirty ticket tout BB ,for those who have profited out of the kit kat shennanigans.

Apparently Aisleyne whispered to another housemate in the early hours of this morning that a couple of the balls that she saw all had the number 14 on them ! The plot thickens

Thats bollocks. It's not going to happen. There are SO many laws and legalities surrounding competitions and lotteries in this country that Big Brother, Endemol and Nestle would not even bother pulling something like that.

Aisleyne hardly even looked at the balls - she was screaming her head off as they were hitting her hand. It is probly one of those "after the event" type thoughts where severything seems amiss.

I just looked at the clip again and she hardly even looked at the balls, so shes talking out of her arse if she reckons she saw multiple balls with the same number on them.

Ok. Probably wasn't fixed but it bugs me that you can't get a normal fucking person in there even if you try. Defeats the purpose of having a golden ticket competition.

Did you go to the auditions? Do you know someone who went to the auditions?

There are several reasons there are hardly any "normal people" get into Big Brother, and it's not just because the producers aren't picking them.

What is "normal" nowadays?

I would say that Glynn is prety "normal".

(and I find myself liking him more and more in a Eugene type of way)

:\

Eugene, I mean Glynn, does seem out of place in there compared to the rest... I compare him to an animal caught in headlights... especially during conversations such as pete and lea and co talking about whipping and stuff in nightclubs.

I have already said to several people that Glyn sounds as though someone stuffed half a tube of superglue down his throat, so I think I shall now refer to him as Gluegene.

That said, hes bloody loving it! Hes having all sorts of life experiences which to us might seem fairly routine and tedious but hes like a kid in a sweet shop. I think hes the most likely to come out of this with a "valuable" experience under his belt. You wanna watch him, he might actually have Pete at the final hurdle simply because he will be the "housemate whos been on the biggest developmental journey."

I suspect fast practice and have sent the following e-mail to bbhelp@channel4.com.

Hello Big Brother,
I wonder if you could tell me exactly who the "official adjudicator" was for the lottery balls selection process. I purchased 2 KitKats in the hope that I might find a golden ticket. I do not like KitKat bars and find that they clag my mouth so my sole intention when making my purchase was to enter the competition. I must inform you that public speculation suggests that we hopefuls have been conned so I would like to check some facts with the official adjudicator mentioned by host Davina.
Many Thanks
U. Stepper (Mr)

Scenario:
Little old lady , I will call her Edith (for want of a name) from now on ,walks into her local ciggy shop.
"Hello" ,says Edith
"Hello Edith" ,says Basheem (for want of another name) "Usuall"
"Yes please" says Edith "However I'm feeling a bit peckish today"
Basheem - "Well we have Crisps,cheesestraws,pepperoni normal,peperoni hot,and pepperoni firestick. Or a nice selection of chocalates to tempt you with"
Edith "Oh , I will have one of these" (Notices some Kit-Kats placed in the trough right next to the till [*staring at her*] which are fairly easy to reach).
Basheem " That will be £12.96 please Edith , including your Electricity cards and your 10 Lambert and Butler silvers"
Good old Edith , Eats her Kit-Kat (a bit heavy on the tumour,mind),and throws away a :shocked: GOLDEN TICKET :shocked: .,in the council provided litter bin (oh! yes she didn't drop it on the pavement.
And goes home and reads a nice book.

Scenario ends.

For god's sake, according to Big Brother, the 'golden ticket winners' were going to be whoever opened the Kitkat wrappers and found a golden ticket. I can understand people being so desperate for fame that they buy god knows how many Kit Kat bars to try and find a golden ticket, but I think they should have been banned from being sold on ebay. Even if someone bid for one on ebay, I expected the 'golden housemate' to be someone relatively normal. So I get a big shock when I turn on the live programme tonight and find someone who looks like they have a bigger chest than Lea (obviously fake), spends half their life on sun beds, and looks like they have had LOADS of botox. And what the hell has happened to her nose? It's Michael Jackson-style! Incredible! Hardly a genuine winner, I don't think.

Question

if the golden ticket winner in the house has to wear gold clothes, were all the possible winners told to purchase an entire wardrobe of gold clothes on the offchance, or were they providied by BB

if they were provided, how did they know what sizes etc?

BB provided the clothes and before anyone enters the house all their measurements are taken as throughout the show various costumes are worn.

so they had an entire set of clothes for each of the golden ticket winners then

hope they were on sale or return

Well there`s a lot of speculation about this at the moment. It seems that a lot of people already knew this person and she had been a standby for the last BB. BB is coming under fire at the moment and the word " Fix" is being thrown around.

so they had an entire set of clothes for each of the golden ticket winners then

hope they were on sale or return
Nope. Just the first set of clothes, which were horribly ill fitting on Suzi. I'm guessing the guy's inevitable "gold suit" would have been elasticated waistband and oversized jacket too.

Then its a matter of getting the costume designers (its a TV show, they have people who do this stuff for a living) to run up something for the next day, and the next, and the next, etc... once they know who is in there.

Stop trying to find a conspiracy theory in a peice of fluff.

ooooooh
ok then

What is "normal" nowadays?

I would say that Glynn is prety "normal".

(and I find myself liking him more and more in a Eugene type of way)

i love glyn. glyn to win.

i loved eugene also and was so chuffed when he took half the winnings.

anyway back on topic...

Glyn is such a twerp though. This is a man who had to have a tin opener explained to him! Don't they have them in planet Wales?

To be fair his ma and da probably don't think he is old enough to handle Sharp objects like tin openers. Besides, when he marries that nice girl that works in the shop, won't she be opening all of the tins for him? Why should Ma teach him how to use basic kitchen implements? He's a man, men don't belong in the kitchen.

I have been to deepest darkest north wales. My Gran's sister-in Law thinks that people from north yorkshire are horribly progressive and fast paced.

Yet another story in the papers today from one of the 36 shortlisted, who claimed it was all very suspicious on the night, and that Susie was spotted whispering with the producers all evening, and apparently did not seem that suprised at all when chosen. The whole thing now is apparently going to be offically investigated such are the complaints. Surely if there was nothing underhand to it at all, it would have been so much simpler to have had Big Brother ask a housemate to step forward, think of a number between 1 and 36 and call it out loud, and only THEN ask them to open the envelope and relate the whole golden ticket story and show them the plasma screen. No one could have complained of any wrong doing in that case, and the whole thing could have taken place INSIDE the house with the doors firmly closed, so the Grace chanting debacle could have been avoided too ( not that I didn't allow myself a major smirk when it did). I still smell a major rat in the whole thing.

it is also suggested that an inside source has revealed that several golden ticket winners were too good to be wasted on this years contest ,and have been secretly told they will be put on the shortlist to appear in the next BB.

As well as that:
Only two winners of the golden tickets had had no part in previous auditions for the show.

And one was a Journalist.

Not too suprisingly Channel 4 have chosen to ignore my e-mail so I have turned my attention to the Kit Kat company Nestle. I wonder if they will reply...

Hi Nestle
I sent the following e-mail to bbhelp@channel4.com but they have chosen not to reply.

U. Stepper (Mr)

Do you now consider that you have been drawn into a fraud by the channel 4 production company? Please send a response to my mail as I'm feeling ignored.
U. Stepper (Mr)

Did you use U.Stepper(Mr) in the original draft ,or use your Real Name(Mr).?
Just to clarify that they didnt think you were a twat.

The question is valid and from a proper e-mail addy so they have to reply.......... they have to I tell ya.

I reckon it was a fix, based on what I've read, seen and heard. For starters, they should have disqualified people who had bought their tickets on ebay and the like.

I reckon it was a fix, based on what I've read, seen and heard. For starters, they should have disqualified people who had bought their tickets on ebay and the like.

Even if it was a fix (and I dont think it was) there would be nothing to stop them handing a ticket to the person they wanted in.

I think its all conspiracy and no theory.

EXACTLY. How many of the 'golden ticket winners' weren't wannabes who had auditioned time and time again? From the sounds of things, none of them.

:haha: I goofed, I meant all theory and no conspiracy.

Most (not all) of the people were previous wannabes, and I expected nothing less. I dont know of anyone who would want to go into the BB house, everyone I know would also have tried selling their tickets.

Susie in the film clip was wearing a number 34 badge, and yet she was 14 on the night she was picked. When Richard said it was fixed she hid under her hat and wouldnt look at them.

Dont be silly. Go and look at the clip you posted (http://board.dogbomb.co.uk/showthread.php?p=713029#post713029) you can clearly see she is number 14 and as the camera pans along she is sat between numbers 13 and 15.

Yes she was No 14 then but in a clip they showed last night she had a badge on saying 34

the sun and probably other papers are saying that bb kept it a secret that she paid 4k (or hubby did) for ticket on ebay.

no they didnt. davina said when introducing suzy that her hubby paid 4k on ebay for the ticket. i remember as i told mr mob as i was astounded.

and it was number 38 aparently but there were only 34 so it could have been a clip from her original audition?

I still smell a rat. And how on earth did they manage to arrange everything for the 'State of Suzie' so damn quickly? The bust, for a start!

Do you realise how long she's been in there and how many hours they have to produce the task in terms of preperation before the winner is even selected ? If you have ever watched BBLB you will know that some tasks are prepared weeks before hand with the final parts done within the last day or two when they know who will have what role.

They wouldn't have been able to start on the bust till they knew whose face to base it on!

They wouldn't have been able to start on the bust till they knew whose face to base it on!
It wouldnt have taken more than a couple of hours to knock that bust up. Ive seen more complicated ice sculptures made in that ammount of time

You really think so? I suppose it wasn't an amazing work of art anyway, so they could have found a sculptor to do it I guess; they could have been booked weeks in advance for it then shown the person to base it on when they got there. I still find the whole 'Golden Housemate' thing very unsavoury. I just don't think it was genuine at all. I reckon Susie knew she was going in beforehand, and I think she's the most tactful and easy to like housemate I've ever seen on Big Brother as well! So I am very impressed with her; I just think the contest was fixed.

Well they apparently showed footage of the draw machine last night but I didnt see it, so whether that was to the audience or to the press or what, I dont know. The independant adjudicator has gone on record as saying that it was not a fix and that the machine was locked in the garden once it had been prepared until it was used.

I think the different number tag thing will have been from the preliminary screenings that they did on the golden ticket winners, Originally, I think there were 55 winners, but they had to go through a "suitability" process and so there only ended up being 34 actual final contestants (whether some bottled out also, I dont know).

As for the stuff they had for the task, well, they have a team of people sorting out props for tasks, and printing, plaster casting etc can be done fairly instantaneously. I dont think that tells us anything.

And a Channel 4 spokesman said "We're not stupid, you know".

Which is reassuring.
