October 6th 2024.
Adam Miller, the TV editor for Metro, recently had the opportunity to explore the new Big Brother house. As the popular reality show makes its return, a newly renovated house awaits a fresh batch of housemates. The anticipation is high as viewers eagerly await the reveal of the new lineup, hoping to live up to the perfect cast that kicked off the show's reboot on ITV last year.
Despite some setbacks, hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best are returning to guide us through the next six weeks of social plans that will be a write-off for many. Yesterday, ITV released a sneak peek of the new house, which received a mixed response from fans who felt it looked too similar to last year's design. While the annual makeover of the Big Brother house is a significant part of the show's experience, Adam took a closer look and found that it offers a completely different vibe from last year's house.
The first stop on Adam's tour was the Diary Room, where he was greeted by what could possibly be the most extravagant chair in the show's history. A massive throne splattered in multicolored paint sets the tone for this year's house, and it's clear that the theme is inspired by the popular children's show Art Attack. The entire house is a visual overload, with bright colors and paint splatters adorning every corner.
As Adam made his way through the house, he noted that while it may look familiar, there are distinct differences that make it feel like a new experience. Exiting through the side door, he was met with an explosion of bright colors, with giant paint splatters dripping down the walls. It was at this point that Adam realized why the new house felt so different - it was almost like it was caving in on itself.
The bedroom, now transformed into a pink palace, was trippy as hell. Adam couldn't imagine spending more than a day or two in there without unraveling at record speed. He even joked that he would probably be the first housemate to be nominated and voted off for being too boring, all because of the intense decor.
The bathroom, which had a complete overhaul, was Adam's favorite room in the house. With a double shower and a large tub surrounded by a seating area, it's perfect for watching your housemates soak while being watched by millions of viewers. As someone currently looking for bathroom renovation ideas, Adam was inspired by the design and joked that he would probably spend most of his time there, much to the delight of the producers.
Moving on to the living quarters, Adam was surprised by how massive the main living space was. He noted that the kitchen floor was a bit sticky, but overall the house felt less claustrophobic and more spacious than it appeared on television. This could potentially make it easier for housemates to avoid each other and create new alliances.
Adam also noticed a few items that caught his eye, including an old-school landline telephone and an annex that seemed perfect for housemates to gossip and plot. He also couldn't help but marvel at the sheer scale of the house, realizing that it was much bigger than he had anticipated.
Finally, Adam made his way to the garden, the one area of the house where you don't feel completely cut off from the outside world. Despite the summer coming to an end, the Big Brother garden is still the perfect spot for a glass of wine in the evening, followed by a dip in the hot tub. However, Adam did note that this year's hot tub seemed smaller than in previous years, possibly to avoid any scandalous situations.
One surprise for Adam was the view from the office overlooking the garden. Even though the blinds will probably be closed most of the time, he couldn't help but wonder if the glimpse of the outside world will make the housemates feel slightly more connected.
While some may be disappointed that the new Big Brother house looks too similar to the previous one, Adam reminds us that the real magic happens when the housemates enter. From the inside, it feels like a completely different experience, and viewers will soon forget about any resemblance to the previous house. Love Island has proven that a lack of change in scenery doesn't affect the show's popularity, and Big Brother is no different.
As the housemates prepare to enter the new house tonight, the excitement is palpable. And while some may critique the design, Adam can attest that from the inside, it feels like a whole new world. Big Brother returns tonight at 9pm on ITV. Do you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures to share?
