Absolutely but TBH just surprised that process hasn't been done already - you'd have they the end of the 10 run they'd have been digitising as standard.

10 seem to own the episodes series they had produced for them. The production companies didn’t as we would have seen them be used in the 9 and 7 iterations, but they had to resort to YouTube.

Likely they have just been sitting in a warehouse somewhere.

BB Instagram posted the clip of Sara Marie drunkenly making fish fingers and then going into the bedroom to eat them because she felt lonely (and made ALOT of noise) while Ben and I think Blair slept. Hilarious!

this moment has been laughed about between my family members since the very day it aired. I will forever think of Sara-Marie when I eat a fish finger. The Nostalgia is magical!
 
When you compare the first live show - the eviction and then you get to eviction 7 and the production values are completely night and day. Up to this point they start introducing small amounts of things like, packages to break. Use of the Diary room mix theme, the acoustic BB theme, the VO for Gretel.

Even the start to use the mini head mics for guests… which Gretel would then use as her default. They were at the time another innovation and cost a bomb.

It’s pretty astonishing the amount they fleshed out the show as it went on. It was groundbreaking at the time it did start. But by the end it was almost a well slick machine.

Yeah you can see the show evolving from one week to the next. They were figuring it out, refining it, and finding their groove as they went along. Gretel was visibly more comfortable as well.
 
Ive missed a bit because I have been out... but what was the reasoning for the "house renovations"? I forgot about them but the house was painted by the housemates and the backyard dug up.
 
I always liked Johnny and Gordon's bromance, but they were both city-based party boys so they had that in common. And if Gordon wasn't bi he was obviously comfortable around gay men.

I always assumed he was bi.

The beauty of Big Brother. A friendship forming between a mid 30s gay man from the city and a 20 year old straight male from the country. People that would not cross paths ever if not for Big Brother.

I know Big Brother is a gameshow at its core, but I just love the experience of watching genuine human connections form between the housemates. You always hear actors say they get close with each other on sets of movies and tv series, but this is genuine raw human interactions that play out in real time. The true essence of Big Brother is timeless. Reality television shows many close bonds between contestants but it never hits as hard as the ones you see on BB.
 
Even still watching this back as well as having visited the site many times before, I am always amazed that is really is the same house every year?! I feel like the backyard appears so much bigger in the 2004-2014 seasons whilst it looks so small and compacted in the 2001-2003 era. In fairness there is a lot going on in the 2001 backyard, but its still so crazy to me that it is the very same yard used in the later seasons.
