Thanks for this info. Good to hear that no-one was injured, I did wonder whether they were using the same house as BB South Africa seems they were.

It's a shame, I was looking forward to watching this. Although, a later starting date is probably good for me, otherwise I'd be watching four series of Big Brother and possibly Utopia!

I wonder what they'll do, maybe they'll use a foreign BB house, the UK one becomes available shortly and is close time-wise to Africa. It's been done before a BB house in a different country.

It's happened a few times, the Big Brother VIP Denmark used the Norwegian BB house, Ecuador used the Argentina house, Croatia used the Thailand house for a twist one year and the Pacific version was filmed using the house in Columbia.

Photos of the fire here, looks pretty big -

Why can't they use our BBUK house? It's empty come 12 Sept plus it's all furnished and ready to host another series.

Endemol own the rights to the BBUK house until 2018.

All they need to do is fly all involved over to the UK and possibly shorten the length of their series by a week or so to have our house ready for CBB15 in January.
