For newbies, it's a thread for posting tweets, Facebook stuff, links to video clips, newspaper and magazine articles - anything relevant to CBB 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, hope people don't mind as this place can be used as a safe haven when it's a bit rough out there

Thread forever dedicated to the memories of our late friends Wonkeydonkey and Sad BB Addict

Thanks for the thread Richie, and as always due respect to Sad and Wonkey, may they never be forgot.


Does seem strange no BB tonight but to be fair i need a break before embarking on another CBB ! I bet we dont get another result as surprising as this week !

I have met all the celebrities. This is going to be an amazing series.

Ah, richie - that's really nice! I miss those two so much each series and often find myself wondering what they'd be posting!

Attention #CBB fans: don't miss the live launch tomorrow night at 9pm on @channel5_tv!

Out of the 17 people mentioned on this list on Tellymix

10 have appeared on some sort of reality tv show before

I'd rather have Lil Kim and Sarah Harding over a lot of the Americans and some interesting like that Storage bloke which is ridiculous.
