For newbies, it's a thread for posting tweets, Facebook stuff, links to video clips, newspaper and magazine articles - anything relevant to BB Australia that's not big enough to deserve its own thread.

The idea of this is someone can get in from work/college etc and skim quickly through the thread to see what's been occurring.

It's worked well in the past because there was rarely duplication. If you're posting say a tweet, hit Refresh first in case someone's done it already. If someone's already doing the tweets, leave them to it. After an hour you could post "would you like me to take over?".

The chit chat rule has been relaxed a little, hope people don't mind as this place can be used as a safe haven when it's a bit rough out there

Thread dedicated to the everlasting memory of our deceased friend Sad BB Addict, rest in peace fella

I'm so excited! Reading the producer Q&A lets me know that they saw potential with BBUK's Power Trip but will fix all the mistakes we made to it.

There won't be a live nominations show this year though which saddens me, all edited into the highlights

Yeah, not exactly 'celebrating diversity' are they? All the guys pics could have been lifted from some 1950s American college yearbook.

I'm glad they're going for a 'new breed of HM' but one Drew lookalike wouldn't been nice.

It's like the same face, but 1 shaven, 1 moustache, 1 beard, 1 glasses xD

Pretty much, the producer tried to explain why in the Q&A I posted

I wish it was a vote to evict though. I much prefer that to vote to save.

Quote: "This year we have the highest average age ever in BBAU".

Did they have schoolkids in earlier series?

Sounds like they are doing Friends & Family nominations and allowing housemates the read tweets from viewers.

There are no genuine "purists" left running BB, it seems.
