Big Brother UK / Celebrity BB UK
It starts up in about 90 minutes!
Can't believe they decided not to have a live feed this year. They think people will be satisfied with a daily highlights show. That's not enough to keep people posting as part of their "social media strategy."
The cast is still a mystery. There's a possibility of Jedward!

Other than Tara Reid, Pamela Bach and Jedward, my British friends are having trouble figuring out why/how many of the other people are famous.
Re: Celebrity Big Brother UK 2011 (premieres 8/18)
I caught the first 15 minutes or so, was surprised Paddy Dougherty is on it!! I hope to be keeping up with this show since I have heard such great things about the UK versions. It may take me a while to get used to the accents tho.
Re: Celebrity Big Brother UK 2011 (premieres 8/18)
One surprisingly good thing: the videos on Channel Five's website are playing for me in the US! So we can keep up with the highlights, at least.
Re: Celebrity Big Brother UK 2011 (premieres 8/18)
Ive been keeping up with some of the clips on Channel 5, but the main episodes wont play for me. So I have been watching them on You Tube.
This is my first year watching BB UK, but I have to say I love it. Is the non celeb just as good? Seems to remind me of season 1: lots of "tasks" to keep them occupied, viewer vote outs. I also love the set up of the house, everyone sleeps in the same room, the work out room.
as far as the houseguests, I only previously knew of Tara, Pamela, and Paddy. I am liking pretty much everyone in there tho. The Pap's six pack is a little odd to me tho lol

I've been catching a feed of the nightly show -- it's a nice break from the otherwise ugly US BB at the moment. :lol
Tara Reid sounds all world-weary and wise when talking to people -- strange! ;)

Finale night:
7th place: Bobby Sabel
6th place: Darryn Lyons
5th Place: Lucien Laviscount
Re: Celebrity Big Brother UK 2011 (premieres 8/18)
4th Place: Amy Childs
3rd Place: Jedward ( :( I wanted them to win)
Runner-up: Kerry Katona (she has her clean slate now)
Which makes the winner...Paddy Doherty!
OK, time for regular BBUK to start. :D
Re: Celebrity Big Brother UK 2011 (premieres 8/18)
Im happy with the winner, I thought I wouldnt like Paddy but ended up liking him alot. Would have been happy with a Kerry win, but I was actually expecting Jedward to win. I also didnt think I would like Jedward, but grew to love them! The only person I have a negative thought about was Darryn. Something about him that I cant put my finger on.
and Pamela Anderson is gonna be on the regular BBUK, right? This will be my first time watching it, do they do it like the celeb version- viewers vote off? Ill probably follow it, tho its kinda hard for me to watch the videos on youtube. Anyone know of any websites that go over whats going on, kinda like this one?

Pamela is only in the house for 3 days, she's hosting competitions and such. She has her own private bedroom at night that is apparently off-camera.
Early favorites for me are Heaven and Tom. I already can't stand the posh guy and the bleach-blonde girl(s).
