The celebrity one with Jade & Shilpa? Oh crap, now I'll have to watch the whole thing, but after I watch the 2005 Aus one lol!

Granny do you know if any of the other seasons of Australia are on YouTube? I've only managed to find this year's and 2005, I really like the Australia ones.

Ok, well, it looks like we have some interested!

I will have internet access, but will probably only pop in now and then.

Yes, the one with Jade and Shilpa. Others season are on torrents and I think usenet (or something like that) I could ask "timmydownthewell" over at Jokers in the BBAU section.

This is the launch show of BBAUS8. You can find episodes, Friday Night Live, Eviction Shows, etc. I don't know if any of the earlier seasons are archived. Last season...the last season, was a good one. First time I totally followed it. Shame it's over with. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the rumors of it's return on another network in '09 are true Smile

Hey Granny, thanks for posting the Couch Potatoes link!
We appreciate it.

The Couch Potatoes will be knee deep in BBUK.
Depending on if he can get the live feeds over here, our capper xx2000xx will be working his pooper off to get us caps.
If he cant, then we will post the shows.
I try so hard to get into the overseas versions.
The ONLY problem I have with them is, there is NO strategy.
The viewers vote.
If primping, hamming it up, and trying to endear the viewers is a strategy, then I missed it.

But we will cover it from Premiere to Finale.
Check it out!

I'm pretty sure I'll be watching. I started watching the UK Big Brothers (both regular and celebrity) a few years ago and really enjoy them. I've seen part of season 2, all of 3,5(my favorite), 7, part of 8(I got bored about half way through), and 9. My favorite CBB was the season with Chantelle & Preston, though that's ended badly I hear, also last year's CBB Hijack was entertaining as well. The season with Jade/Shilpa got old for me very quickly, and I stopped watching about half way through. Most years I've watched live feeds via the internet, but I'm not sure if they're offering it this season or not. Otherwise, I generally download the episodes by torrents or Usenext whichever gets them up quicker.

Ya ........ BB1 (with Chicken George) had that format. They copied it from the UK. I enjoyed that year ...... the feeds were free and you saw everything except the DR sessions. I also enjoyed the long group challenges they had that involved all the HGs. (Dance marathon and huge domino set-up come to mind)
They also earned money for food and incidentals and then had to have a weekly group meeting to decide how to spend the money.
I'm of mixed minds re the viewer voting .... the HGs nominated the two players who were up for elimination (no HOH) and then the viewers voted. I think I prefer the US version in general ..... much more plotting, scheming and manipulating!

No return of BB Australia. The other two networks that showed interest have bagged it. Too bad.

Subject: Re: All About Celebrity BBUK December 28th 2008, 3:51 pm

These are the celebrities according to Digital Spy

* Ulrika Jonsson - famous for her bad taste in men and inability to keep her knickers up
* Ben Adams - pointless fluff for the teeny girls
* Verne Troyer - mildly entertaining in the right company
* Lucy Pinder - pointless fluff for the lads who like brainless bints
* Tommy Sheridan - lying politician who claims not to be a swinger, but who almost certainly is (allegedly)
* Mutya Buena - long since past it, bitchy, boring and unattractive warbler
* Coolio - cool for ten minutes in the 90s, now as trendy as Sta-Press slacks
* Terry Christian - irritating scouse pillock
* Tina Malone - loud mouthed fat scouser, who might turn out to be worth watching
* Michelle Heaton - another 'making the numbers up' pointless bit of skirt
* La Toya Jackson - completely unhinged and allegedly the alter ego of Wacko himself - will be a complete diva and probably walk within 72 hours

I recognize a few of the names; think it's gonna be a bumpy ride clap

"I still have 12005 tuned in on my non sky box and it has remained active.
It now has a test card with the words "Celeb BB6 MCR".
It looks highly likely to me they will be streaming on this channel."

Unless they have changed their minds, Ch4 is not steaming BBUK now and probably not the summer show either. Time will tell.

Mappy, I just finished watching Aus Season 5 and it was great (much better than Season 8 I enjoy Australia's version more than the UK so far after watching only two of their seasons. I've watched Seasons '08, '07, ('06 my favorite) '05, '04 and '02 of the UK's BB lol!

They are nothing like ours and I guess what it boils down to is when you watch either of these countries Big Brother, you have to realize that and take them for what they are and hopefully you will enjoy them, you can't compare because they are so very different. If anyone wants to watch Australia's Season 5, here's the link, you have to go from page 30 to page 1. I fast forward a lot of the Friday Night Live Games and just watch the actual games, fast forwarding through all the bs'ing.

I don't think I'll be watching the Celebrity UK one, I just found Australia's Season 3 that I'm going to start watching tonight LOL. If anyone is interested in Season 3, here's the link
