I was just going to ask this question, but did a search first and found this.
Is it bicknacre or bickmacre? who is it? and where are they back from?

It's not far from where I live, a tiny little quaint village.

I think the whole of the village goes to EVERY eviction by the look of it.
They are always there.

There is some BB stuff on the home page.

The banner was there on the night of Grace's eviction as well.

LOL - I thought it was Bitchacre! (Thought they were just trying to be clever - making BB sound like a soap opera or something)

How come the onwers of this banner seem to be there every week? What's the score with evictions? Excuse my ignorance but exactly how do you get to go to them? Are they friends and family of the staff at C4? Are they people from around that area? They surely can't all be prizewinners from BBLB and so on? Can someone who keeps saying their mates have been to an eviction please find out for me? Ta.

Lol at this thread .....

THAT'S MY BANNER!



It's not been there every week .... last night, Grace and Sam's eviction. Some of my friends might be going later this month ... so you might see it then too!

If I do make it to the Final ... I'll take a DS:BB banner!

Funny someone should mention Welsh. When my friends took it to Grace's eviction, it nearly didn't make it in as security thought it was something rude in Welsh!?!?!

It's where I live. We took a smaller 'Hello Bicknacre' banner last summer/winter .... Essex FM picked up on it .... and it just grew from there ....

As you have internet access why not try Google rather than asking pointless questions?

For your info and delectation though here is a Link

well it was big brother related, as it was seen at the eviction, how was pFd supposed to know it was a place? it could have been something on Big Brother that they had missed

There was no harm done in asking

Is that why every other week seems to see the "JAMES + DOM / ESSEX FM" banner appearing?

I clicked the link and found out all I need to know when the "things to do" column has a picture of the church choir. Now I've got a feel for the place, wether it's quaint or not.

Well I'm glad the OP asked since I've wondered about it myself - and it's funny (as in LOL) that it turns out to be Tinkerbella.

Yep ... we took a banner a couple of times for them.

It got confiscated last night!

Hey ho .... they did OK by us for a couple of weeks!

Don't be silly, I was wondering what it meant too. No well-meant question is pointless.
