Big Brother 2002 on official YouTube channel (Live streamed Aug 8-10)

Can anyone who watched the 2002 livestream marathon confirm if the “Intruders Unleashed” special was shown? It aired between Daily Shows 22 and 23 (Days 30 and 31), and was hosted live by Gretel Killeen. It featured Nicole, Brodie and Kieran entering the house live. There’s even mention of this at the very end of the Daily Show episode.

However, it has not been uploaded to the official YouTube playlist at all. Does anyone know if there’s a reason why it’s missing?
 
I was kinda skipping through the live stream but I'm pretty sure I saw that with Gretel, and them going in (not just from the next daily ep), hopefully someone can back me up there.

I'm 99% sure it was a part of the livestream, as I had mates over watching it and I made a comment about Gretel and Kieren, but I was several bourbons deep at the time.
 
Can confirm it aired before Eviction 3 on the stream, but I think it was supposed to run off the back of the live eviction in real time "the show continues" as Gretel says.
Is this the one you are referring to?

Nah, that’s online. We’re referring to Intruders Unleashed (when they actually entered the house) and aired on Day 30, after this Daily Show.

The following Daily Show is online (the recap of them entering), but the actual live special with Gretel is missing.

Ah yes sorry! I’ll check again.

Confirming no it wasn't on the stream.

Thinking back, the missing Intruders Unleashed episode from Day 30 is actually a lot more significant than just the new HMs entering.

Halfway through that live special is when Turkan had a mental breakdown (and therefore taking the thunder from the Intruders :rolleyes:). About a third of the special became just a live stream from the house, with her in the Diary Room announcing she'd decided to quit the show, followed by a live stream of her breaking down to Peter in the bedroom. (They even kept Carmel Hill in the studio with Gretel to watch and discuss the meltdown as it happened.) Another unexpected turn of events that was all captured live and went to air in realtime.

I doubt that has something to do with why it isn't uploaded to YouTube... but maybe?

Oh, interesting... as someone who didn't watch the season as it happened, I always assumed that part was kinda delivered as a "live update" on Rove, 'cause Gretel talking to Rove is the clip they always seemed to use. 😃

I guess the fact they even did a live linkup between Gretel and Rove shows how big of a deal it was at the time.
