Taps

Ideas please on how to solve the tap issue when two housemates go in the toilet and turn the taps on to talk in private, I think the water should be shut off if two housemates go to the loo at the same time, could be easily sorted, also put them in jail or take food away from the food budget,

Celebrities are quick enough to take channel 5's money and do it to help their careers (not for the public to see the real me as claimed) and the point of the programme is for us to see everything and how they behave not the bits that suit them,also what happened to the noise Big Brother used to play if housemates stayed in bed all morning (Dappy) is this only for the regular Big Brother
What name??

They should put in mics that can filter out the noise in the bathrooms themselves and continue to let them think it works

Turn off the water. Or alternatively turn off the hot water as punishment for the house.

They should give them a warning for wasting water whilst at the same time inform them that they can hear every word they say anyway!

BB needs to take some action otherwise this will become the norm in every Big Brother !

Must be a bit of an idiot who designed the house and put taps in the bathroom which could be turned by housemates so high as to muffle sound.

They could have installed automatic taps where housemate can't control them, put them outside the toilet not in it, just gave them antibacterial hand wash instead or sort out the mics so the can noise cancel any sink noise.

Why punish the housemates over it?, the housemates should have the privacy to go to the toilet without having someone listen in to the toilet noises and punish them if they don't like how the water sounds.

The whole point is that there are no mics (or cameras) in the toilets in the celeb version, unlike the civilian one.

Also the celebs have to have a shower with an opaque door, whereas the civilians can sometimes be asked to shower outside.

I wouldn't have thought it would be too difficult to build in some sort of valve to the pipes, allowing water to be shut down quite quickly if two HM's tried to use it to mask a conversation or other activity.

Given that the water pipes only need extend to just behind the walls of the house (set) into the camera runs the valve could be a matter of inches from the taps. Then it is just a question of sending a runner to turn it off.

I'm calling BS.

They are probably just brushing their teeth, it's what they were doing together for the first 3 days seemingly.

And BB is just exploiting the situation to add some fuel to the fire.

They go in there to check their scripts and/or receive revised instructions from producers.

The thought had occurred, yes.

I imagine they were actually just necking like teenagers, with maybe a spot of groping in Jasmine's case. Probably no egg whisking.

Might be enough, yup.



Cameras would of course be too much to ask for. Too 'Big Brother', like live feed.

Have some kind of setting on the taps where the water only runs for a certain amount of time, I mean you only need enough to wash hands and brush teeth
