13 housemates, and 2 days to go...
Posted by Simon at May 25, 2005 07:53 AM

There's only two days to go until the sixth series of Big Brother swings in to action, and the latest news seems to confirm that there will indeed be 13 housemates entering the house this time around.

Manchester Online first had news of the Unlucky 13 in their article late on Thursday night, backing up BB Fan Forums where it'd been spotted that there were 13 mic holders next to the pool.

The article went on to confirm details of the bedroom which has a glass screen (possibly mirror glass which when the blinds are pulled down causes the kitchen area to be reflected back) and that there are 9 single beds and two doubles, that there's a loft to give housemates a small amount of privacy, and a "glass box" living area.

Scotland's Daily Record confirmed things yet further by giving almost exactly the same details, although the loft is described as having "a flight of stairs in the garden" leading up to it, where as Manchester Online claims it's a ladder.

Turn of the tabloids
But it was a few hours later, in the early hours of this morning, that details started to appear on the national Tabloid websites, including The Mirror, who have affectionally dubbed it a "Big Bro peep show", going on about the fact that there will be heat seeking cameras which can catch antics under the covers - meaning there really is no escape from the viewing public.

The unlucky 13th housemate is said to be facing a week of "torture" according to The Mirror, whilst The Sun claims they'll "have their life made hell for the rest of the series".

So then the bedroom pics...
BBC News appear to be the first to get snaps of the BB6 bedroom (other than the quick view through shards of the BB eye in the Channel 4 advert recently) and confirm the fact that the bedroom is indeed the other side of the mirror which was visible in the publicity snaps released yesterday.

The article calls it a "transparent house", and that producers will be able to control the heat of the outside pool - other articles have claimed that they'll have the same control over the pool, being able to make that hot or cold as they wish, and obviously causing great annoyance for the housemates.

More from the house just as soon as The Eye sees it!
