That would have been sorta funny if the bailiffs had forced entry

Bailiffs nearly seized BB furniture.
oh wow! could you have imagined it if they had come in during the show!!
the HM's would have been locked in the bed room and thought it was going to become another version of the divide with bits of furniture going missing every day!

I watched a motoring programme tonight on which two lenghty bits of music were used. Presumably they paid royalties or whatever to play them. The scenes could easily have worked without the music but the chosen music was apt. It does rather make a mockery of C4 pumping out bird song (or whatever) during several parts of the show rather than cough up and let the viewers enjoy the show as they should have done.
I know C4 are/were struggling financially but considering how much they (and others - Sky apparently made over 1 million on interactive voting alone) have made out of the show they seem to penny pinch the viewers at every opportunity.
Well if you think about it there are going to be what another 3-4 BB's of various types in this house. They are going to give it a different style each time and even move the rooms etc round a bit.
So why spend thousands on furniture etc when it's only going to be used for 2 months.
Theres two things I'd be wondering about though.
1. Surely some of the things are either totally wrecked or damaged in some way so how much are they relaly worth (ignoring the potential 'celeb' value)
2. What about these people hiring the house for £20,000? They will be hiring out a shell, the furniture and diary room chair gone to the baliffs, The Sun had the 2 plasma screens in a competition today, I would guess most of the odds and ends and even things like wall panels were taken for souviners by 'cast' and crew so what on earth does it look like now???

usually at the end of the series they auction off the things on Ebay, and make good profit too.
Last year i think the salt and pepper holders went for more than £100!!

They didn't rent the contents of the house I believe it was all provided by suppliers free of charge and why not, what a great showcase for your products and perfect business sense for Channel 4. There's also a list of suppliers and their contact details on the BB3 Website, if it's still there, it was when I looked a few weeks ago.

It looks like the list of suppliers has gone, probably made way for the SHOP page.........The BB3 Uncut DVD/Video is on sale already, that was quick.

Not according to the 'ever accurate' Sun? The firm they got/hired/borrowed all the stuff from has gone bust. The latest news is that the baliffs have now stripped the house and the goods(including the diary room chair) will be auctioned off. Guess they've got a bit of shopping to do before celebrity BB.
