More launch night details confirmed
There will be 12-14 housemates

There will be between 80 and 90 hopefuls competing for a place in the Big Brother house, producers have confirmed.

On launch night, Big Brother will announce a final selection of housemates from the 80-90 hopefuls.

Creative director Phil Edgar Jones told Digital Spy: “We’ve got our shortlist of people coming down on launch night. There will probably be around 80 or 90 people. They are all coming down to join in this last carnival which is Big Brother.

“None of them will know whether or not they have been picked. To be honest, not even we know all of them yet. Some of them we do, some we don’t.

“Big Brother still makes the decision on who goes in the house, like it has always done. You will just see the moment when they find out who enters this wonderful, beautiful house. There will be between 12 to 14 housemates. I’m being truthful, we genuinely don’t know at this point how many. We haven’t finished selecting yet, we are just trying to get the mix right.”

Jones explained the setup for the launch, saying: “They will still walk in individually and get their own walk into the house. They are just not pulling up in cars, getting booed or cheered. We are doing it in a slightly different way.

“They will be outside. On the big staging outside. Davina will be there. The big crowd will be there. They will all be there in the middle with their name badges on. Big Brother will announce who is going in the house, then you’ll see their face as they start screaming, gibbering or running away madly from it. Who knows?”

Speaking about the possible housemates, Jones revealed that they do not “have a touch of celebrity” about them. He also hinted that more housemates would join later in the series.

What do you think about the launch night twist?

    will they be having there VT’s ???

    • Probably. BB probably knows most of the 12-14 people going into the house, so they could’ve already started making the VTs for them.

    This is fishy. At the late March interviews/auditions there would have been less than 80. So that means HMs who never made the cut that far are going to be called? Late entries? Without that isolation thing? If they have decided by now (the Producers) it seems odd. Take with a large pinch of sodium chloride :tongueout:
