Colours and formatting
To follow suit with previous nominations tables, the following colour codes should be used:
- Banned: #959FFD
- Evicted: #FA8072
- Finalists: #FBF373
- Removed: #FFCCCC
- Walked: #FFCCFF
Any major changes to the colours used on the table without discussion will be reverted on sight. — FireFox 21:31, 12 June '06
Just a thought, would Evicted be better if it was #FECOFF
- Pink? Nah. -- 9cds(talk) 20:32, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
Colours
I don't like the colour for the walked, it is too bright and i would expect it to be over powering. i realise that this is following previous series tables, but in previous cases there has not been such a section. I feel that it should be changed, what do people think to #ffccff (shown below)

Shahbaz's Brotherhood
I will put Shahbaz as a “walked/big brotherhood member” just for future reference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.111.6.104 (talk • contribs)
- There is no need to - it's already stated at the bottom of the page. -- 9cds(talk) 18:06, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
I think it's a good idea. dalejenkins.
Merge?
Could this be merged with the main article when the series has finished and the information on the talk page is no longer needed? JD 20:51, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, I don't understand. When the information on the talk page is no longer needed? The article should stay separate. — FireFox (U T C) 20:53, 24 May '06
- Wow that reply was hell fast. I mean, all other Big Brother series that I have looked at so far have the nomination table in the article relevant to the series. I just thought that maybe this one could follow suit. JD 20:55, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
- Not series 4 or 5 or 6. All the series before 4 had incomplete or simple tables compared to the one for this year. — FireFox (U T C) 20:59, 24 May '06
- Oh yeah, BB 6 just has the small one on the side. BB06 Australia has a proper nomination table at the bottom, but it doesn't matter. Forget I said anything. JD 21:03, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

- I agree with JD, this page should be merged with the main page at the end of the series, and the series 4, 5 & 6 tables should be merged with their main pages ASAP. Unclefester 23:52, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
I'm gonna go for no, keep it separate. -- 9cds(talk) 00:33, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
No nominations
Since there are no nominations in the first week, I suggest we make the column for week 1 grey or something along those lines, so it is clear. Maybe #999999. Thoughts? — FireFox (U T C) 10:20, 25 May '06
Edit summary
Just to let people know, I wasn't thinking properly when I made this edit summary - I meant simple, not accurate :) — FireFox (U T C) 15:13, 27 May '06
- I think it's a good idea though; just small pieces of information like with what %age each housemate was evicted with. No need to write that Dawn was ejected for rule-breaking, just eviction %ages... Ellisjm 29 May 16:15 UTC
- Personally I don't. The nomination table should be kept as simple and easy to read as possible, without lots of cluttered information. Stats like percentages can go in the main article in my opinion. — FireFox 16:18, 29 May '06
- I agree with FireFox here - it's not especially interesting unless it's particularly close/wide, and it only going to clutter the page. If it's interesting, then it should go on the main page. -- 9cds(talk) 16:46, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Who nominated who??
Where do you find the information about who nominated who> Ellisjm 19:02 UTC 31 May 06
- On the show tonight ;) -- cds(talk) 19:03, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Dawn
Should we put Dawn as up for nomination in week 1 as she was up for nomination for 6 hours and people could vote for her in that time? Ellisjm 20:54 UTC 31 May 06
Colours (cont'd)
Should there be a colour for "Not in House"?? Ellisjm 20:56 UTC 31 May 06
- There is. White. — FireFox usertalk 20:54, 31 May '06
- Ha,ha, I mean a proper colour. White is every colour in the spectrum... Ellisjm 20:58 UTC 31 May 06
- Then no. White is sufficient as it's not used elsewhere in the table. (I wasn't joking by the way) — FireFox usertalk 20:56, 31 May '06
- It is though - for who people nominated Ellisjm 21:01 UTC 31 May 06
- That's not white. — FireFox usertalk 20:59, 31 May '06
- White is used in the table until the gaps are filled in. The "not in house" boxes need to be a different colour. Alex9891 21:23, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
- No it's not. It's #F9F9F9, the same as when the 'gaps are filled in'. — FireFox 21:28, 12 June '06
- It is nearly white then. It's too similar, but I guess it doesn't matter overall because it will all be filled at some stage. Alex9891 21:52, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
- No it's not. It's #F9F9F9, the same as when the 'gaps are filled in'. — FireFox 21:28, 12 June '06

Is there a list of colour codes - then I'll show you what I mean Ellisjm 21:07 UTC 31 May 06
- A list of colour codes used where? — FireFox usertalk 21:06, 31 May '06
- I appreciate your changes, Ellisjm, but I'm not sure we can change it without it looking too bright. -- cds(talk) 21:19, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Oh wow, it's turning into an episode of The Tweenies. Wouldn't more neutral colours be better? Just a suggestion. JD 21:17, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Oh, for gawds sake - all I'm trying to say is that there should be a colour light(not bright) colour for Not In House Ellisjm 21:21 UTC 31 May 06
- There is a colour which keeps it different from normal nomination colours. White. — FireFox usertalk 21:20, 31 May '06
- The colour for normal nominations is white as well. e.g. In week 2, Glyn nominated Grace and Richard. That is a white box... So is Not in House... They're the same colour - white. Ellisjm 21:27 UTC 31 May 06
- I've already said. It is not white. Do you use Mozilla Firefox? If so, download Colorzilla and see for yourself. Otherwise I'm happy to do it for you. — FireFox usertalk 21:26, 31 May '06
- I see it as white. Why? what do you see it as? Ellisjm 21:30 UTC 31 May 06
- I see white in two boxes, and two boxes only. They are both the "Not in House" boxes. JD 21:31, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- It's actually #f8fcff. ;) Some WP:TEA for you all! -- cds(talk) 21:28, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- I see it as #F9F9F9 actually, according to Colorzilla, but neither are white, so there is a difference. =] — FireFox usertalk 21:31, 31 May '06
- So what colour is #f8fcff or #F9F9F9 in normal non-Internet language colours? Ellisjm 21:35 UTC 31 May 06
- #f8fcff is nothing much, forget about it. #F9F9F9 is the colour used in the nomination squares, and is a very light grey. #FFFFFF is white, and is used in the not-in-house squares. — FireFox usertalk 21:35, 31 May '06
- Ok, cos I see #FFFFFF and #F9F9F9 as the same colour - white... Could we make Not In House squares a creamy colour? Ellisjm 21:40 UTC 31 May 06
- There really is no need. The "not in house" squares are italicised anyway, and they're white, and we don't want too many different colours in the table anyway. The page is going to be protected for a little bit - nothing is likely to happen overnight anyway - to prevent any potential edit wars or drastic changes. So any proposals should be brought up here for discussion first. Thanks, and goodnight :) — FireFox usertalk 21:42, 31 May '06

Can't we just leave it? How much does it really matter how many colours of the rainbow you manage to get in the table at the end of the series? It's all about what's written in them more than anything. JD 21:40, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- It just looks kinda neater if there are two seperate colours. Obviously, not everyone can see the two different colours as you can. Ellisjm 21:47 UTC 31 May 06
- If that was directed at me, it would appear that the only person that can't see the two differences in colour is you. JD 21:46, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- So why not make a colour that everyone can see - even me?? Ellisjm 21:50 UTC 31 May 06
- How about a really light shade of green or blue? JD 21:56, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- That's what I tried to do, but I don't know the colourcode for it. Firefox has blocked it anyway, so we can't change it... Ellisjm 22:02 UTC 31 May 06

- Nah, green is too bright, and blue is used for banned. Different shades of red have been used for evicted and such, so maybe a red? -- cds(talk) 22:29, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- Not every shade of really light green is bright you know. JD 23:00, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
There are clear differences between 'nomination boxes' and 'not in house boxes'. For a start, they're a different colour, and if you can't see that, the 'not in house boxes' are italicised as well so what's the problem? We're turning this table into a rainbow, which is unneccessary. The more colour that we have which stand out, the more confusing the table gets, and less people will stay and look at the table. Think about it for a second - people don't come to this page to look at the pretty colours, they come for the information contained in the table. So if they were actually interested in reading the table, they'd read every box individually, so colours are really not a necessity. The only reason we use colours is to make the table slightly easier to read, and slightly more pleasable to the eye, but there is a line regarding the amount of [bright] colour we use in this table, and we're crossing it. — FireFox usertalk 10:14, 01 June '06
- Well said - I think most of us are in agreement here. Lets leave the damn colours alone, or I'm replacing them all with shades of grey! ;) -- cds(talk) 10:47, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- Most of us?? who?? you and firefox! that's it. maybe we could put it grey... Ellisjm 11:06 UTC 1 June 06
- That certainly makes it 50/50 - that's nowhere near consencus. -- cds(talk) 15:53, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- EXACTLY!!! then we're not mostly agreed are we??? Ellisjm 16:38 UTC 1 June 06

Current tag
Is there any point in having a tag at the top of the page? We can just have a note at the top saying the table is incomplete if necessary, but in my opinion, neither {{In-progress tvshow}} or {{current}} seem appropriate. Comments? — FireFox usertalk 21:08, 31 May '06
- Yeah, OK, whatever... sounds good... Ellisjm 21:12 UTC 31 May 06
- Would seem strange that the actual BB page has the {{In-progress tvshow}} tag while this one doesn't. Especially if the info on this page can become available before the evening shows - should we have a spoiler here?! Budgiekiller 21:10, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- How can it not be about the show if it's still live, happening, and subject to change? What if one of the nominees walks right now? This table changes on a daily basis, doesn't it? Budgiekiller 21:13, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- Fair enough, I thought you said "...this page isn't actually about the show..." but I could have mis-read. It is most definitely current events, so it should be tagged thus. Can't see a reason otherwise. But my life is short and frankly, tagged or not, I'll survive! Budgiekiller 21:21, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- You could argue that Queen Elizabeth II is a current event, because she is living and ruling. — FireFox usertalk 21:23, 31 May '06
- Hmm, you could, but her lifespan isn't 120-odd days and doesn't change dramatically on a day-by-day basis. If it did, her page would be tagged as Current Event (wouldn't it?), so I don't think your argument holds water. But then again, is it that imporant?! Budgiekiller 21:26, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- Ok, so you've locked the page... what about the tag?! Budgiekiller 21:52, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- In my opinion, although the tag isn't perfect, the main gist is the text in boldface: "This article or section contains information about an in-progress television show(s)." This article does. It takes information from the website, so people who just watch the TV show will come here and find information about stuff that's not aired yet. Perhaps a {{spoiler}} tag is more appropriate. Plus, it's certainly a current event, that changes at the drop of a hat. --Celestianpower háblame 09:33, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- We should add the {{bbSpoiler}} to this page. It should be unlocked and the tag added. Budgiekiller 09:40, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- I'm gonna have to agree with FireFox here - we don't really need a tag or spoiler tag. We shouldn't have the spoiler tag solely for the reason it's not a spoiler. It never will be a spoiler, they get filled in live after they get announced on TV. -- cds(talk) 10:33, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- They get filled in as soon as someone hears something, maybe on the web or on the digital streaming coverage. It's the same as putting a spoiler on the actual BB7 page, which it was agreed upon because info was appearing in the chronology before the evening transmissions. We should be consistent. Budgiekiller 11:07, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- But that never happens. -- cds(talk) 11:11, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- But in the words of the latest Volvo advert.... "To dream the impossible dream..."! The logic is unquestionable, though, isn't it? Budgiekiller 11:45, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- In fact, Mr cds said this: "I agree there ought to be a spoiler note if it contains information not yet shown in the evening shows. The default should suffice. -- 9cds(talk) 20:31, 29 May 2006 (UTC)" about the BB7 page and no-one disputed him (rightly so), so I can't see the difference at all here. Budgiekiller 11:58, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- Stop misquoting me! :p That's a different page entirely. -- cds(talk) 12:10, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- How so?! It's updated as soon as possible like this page, it contains information not yet shown on mainstream TV, like this page, and, dare I say it, it's about Big Brother UK Series 7, like this page!!! Not entirely different!! Budgiekiller 12:17, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Budgiekiller 11:07, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- It doesn't contain information not yet shown on mainstream TV at all. If you can point any out, I'll gladly put the spoiler warning on there myself :) -- cds(talk) 12:20, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- I agree sometimes it would be possible to find unwanted information. For example, the fact that George walk. Yes it doesn't currently give any information that is not on mainstrem tv but it has done in the past and would expect it to again soon. Joss 13:01, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- There's a simple way of getting round this - don't look at the page if you're that worried about seeing something you don't know about yet. That's what Wikipedia is for though, isn't it? To find out about information that you don't know about yet. That's what an encylopedia is for. — FireFox usertalk 13:03, 01 June '06
- Nonsense, I'm afraid. If that were the case we wouldn't have a spoiler template at all on anything and caveat emptor. This page has, in the past, contained information that hadn't been on mainstream television. Hence it should have the spoiler in the same way that main BB7 page does. If this page doesn't have the spoiler, neither should the BB7 page. And, by the way, I am aware of "what an encyclopedia is for." and don't appreciate the patronising tone!

- There were adverts showing George asking to leave, as they always do. They like to tease us with things like that. It's common knowledge he had left. It was on the front page of BBC News! -- cds(talk) 15:55, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

"no undiscussed changes please"
- Do you expect everybody who comes here to see an edit summary before editing?
- Not even minor wording tweaks?
Anyway....
"As Aisleyne and Sam were new to the house, they were exempt from both nominating, and being nominated."
Firstly, nothing that I can find states that a general rule of BB is that new housemates are banned from nominating. True, they sometimes do twists to the nominations when a new housemate has arrived, but that's an aside. Secondly, I'm not sure if "exempt" is the right word. Is nominating a burden or a privilege? I was about to change it to
"New housemates Aisleyne and Sam were not allowed to nominate or be nominated."
but now I'm not sure if "not allowed" is much better. Can anyone think of a better way to put it? -- Smjg 13:56, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- How bout "New housemates Aisleyne and Sam could not nominate or be nominated" Ellisjm 14:37 UTC 1 June 06
- "New housemates Sam and Aisleyne were exempt from the nomination process." --JDtalkemail 14:40, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
You know perfectly well that I mean changes regarding colours to the table or spoiler/current tags. — FireFox usertalk 14:49, 01 June '06
- Will everybody please calm down? -- cds(talk) 15:56, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- The only person that's not calm is you. --JDtalkemail 16:38, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not calm, I'm totally insane. But you all knew that. Come on everyone, chill out! Budgiekiller 20:25, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- The only person that's not calm is you. --JDtalkemail 16:38, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Imogen / Sources
Anyone have a source for Imogen being banned next week? -- cds(talk) 20:31, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- It was on BBLB News tonight on E4. Ellisjm 20:47 UTC 1 June 06
- Well, I don't know either way - but is there no online source? -- cds(talk) 20:45, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- Dunno - try googling it Ellisjm 20:56 UTC 1 June 06
- I'll leave it on - assuming good faith and such - but we really could do with some sources. -- cds(talk) 20:55, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- I've added various sources from DS:BB, but I can't find a good one for the second time that Imogen was banned. I've found this one, but it talks about when she told Lisa she was banned, rather than the ban itself. Adw2000 14:56, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
- Good job :) -- 9cds(talk) 16:56, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Current nominations
It was brought up that it's hard to tell what the current nominations are - making them bold just makes the table look even more cluttered. Anyone any ideas how to solve this? -- cds(talk) 11:57, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
- Add a border to the box? — FireFox usertalk 14:45, 02 June '06
- That could work.. -- cds(talk) 14:46, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
Template?
I was thinking of templating this table. I think it would save a lot of time if anyone wanted to keep up to date as they could put the template on their userpage and then not have to check the article. Then again on the other hand it may be a complete waste of time. What does everyone else think? -- JAB[T][C] 21:51, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
- It can already be done: {{Big Brother 7 nominations table (section)}}. -- 9cds(talk) 21:57, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
- Ok thanks! -- JAB[T][C] 22:00, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, seems not. It may have to be copied to your user space.. -- 9cds(talk) 22:07, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Adding of percentages
Read the piece about %'s - sorry. 81.111.218.26 18:35, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Though personally I agree with Ellisjm above, it’s a good piece of information to have within the table - and for me it doesn't look really that cluttered and the way it was done looked tidy and (imo) still is easy to read. The percentages could go in the main article, but (again imo) they are pieces of information which are too specific to belong there – and as they are figures I think they'd be perfect in the table. But as you've been around longer than me and have been one of the main contributors’ to the page I'm happy to concede.81.111.218.26 20:08, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Times Nominated
I have added an extra feild for times nominated which contains how many times the housemate has been nominated by others. This is what is looks like:

Housemate | -Number goes here- |
It may make more sense if viewed from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.81.172.231 (talk • contribs)
- We don't need this, so I've reverted. Let me explain. The number of times a housemate has been nominated is largely irrelevant. This is because if a housemate is evicted in the second week for example, it's going to look like they were more 'popular' than, quite possibly, the eventual winner. Secondly, we need to keep the table as small as possible - with an extra (wide) column, the 15-column table will not fit in most browser windows at the end of the series. — FireFox 09:50, 13 June '06
Edit
I would just like to point out that I made a minor change, just to make it clear for future reference. In the last note (note 4 I believe ), I made a small change. I hope this is ok with everyone, I know it is a bit picky.
- They're the best edits ;) -- 9cds(talk) 19:54, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
Current nominations box
Perhaps we could fill the box #D1E8EF instead of giving it a border? What do people think? — FireFox 18:50, 20 June '06
- We might hit colour overload, then. -- 9cds(talk) 22:52, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
Against Public Vote
Are those who are up against the public vote listed in alphabetical order?? Ellisjm 10:30 UTC 21 June 06
- They should be, if they're not, feel free to fix. -- 9cds(talk) 10:28, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
<br> in "See note x"
Why do you think having <br> between "See note" and "x"? It seems completely unnecessary to me, and looks worse... --LorianTC 18:33, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

- It's fine for me without. I use Internet Explorer. But if I change my screen resolution, it screws up. Perhaps your screen is too small. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:20, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
Exempt
Hi I did put this earlier but I think it got a bit lost. Basically I don't think the 'Exempt' boxes should be gold because looking the BB6 Nominations Table, the gold colour is used for the finalists' boxes. Therefore we should use gold for this year's finalists' boxes as well, and 'Exempt' should really be different?
Column Width
The column width on the Nomination twist row of the table needs correcting, "see note 3", "see note 4" and "see note 5" all go too far to the right. Digifiend 08:59, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
"The word Exempt"
I don't like the word 'exempt'.
Exempt implies that they couldn't be nominated. And although that is the case, the box is for who they nominated. I would be much happier with "Unable to nominate" or something along those lines.
What do people think? Ellisjm 16:21 UTC 22 June 06
- Nah, I think "exempt" implies pefectly that they were excluded from the whole nominations process and that that's why there are no nominations in the box.
- Exempt in the dictionary means free from a liability imposed on by others. Nominating is not a liability... Ellisjm 17:20 UTC 22 June 06
Border around this weeks nominations
So are we having a border around the current weeks nominations or not? It keeps getting reverted without any discussion. Personally I think we should have no border, it looks ugly and isn't necessary. --LorianTC 19:14, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- I agree, it's not needed, people can see which week we're on by the blank boxes... Trampikey 19:15, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
There is discussion here. :) -- 9cds(talk) 19:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, but this is a separate issue, to see whether to get rid of the border... Trampikey 19:20, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Does it really matter that much? It's certainly not worth the reverts. —Celestianpower háblame 19:19, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- I think we should make clear the current nominations but perhaps with a different colour rather than a border. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:07, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- The state of colours is already insane, we shouldn't make another. -- 9cds(talk) 20:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- How about, just get rid of the border and never speak of it again? --JD[talk|email] 20:20, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- I like the sound of that. --LorianTC 20:25, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- This nominations page is a nightmare, along with the table on the BB7 page. Too much overediting means that none of the information is clear. So, in my (lack of) wisdom, I suggested a while ago that the most useful, up-to-date, pertinent information was (somehow) highlighted to the reader. Please consider that besides all of you lot (and me) who visit and edit this page on an hourly basis, some new visitors may spot it and, believe you me, this page is a minefield of info, and it's pretty unclear what on earth is going on. Fine, it might not meet everyone's idea of how to present a page (and I've done a few years of this sort of thing, so I understand that EVERYONE has an opinion), but as it is, it takes ages (on first sight) to work out what is going on here. Bring back something (borders?) that points to the most relevant section of this page. Budgiekiller 20:41, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed! :) -- 9cds(talk) 20:44, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Somehow highlight the whole column then, so the single box doesn't stick out like one of those things that stick out in those places where they normally wouldn't if they were like the other things... --JD[talk|email] 20:43, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Wild, sounds like you're heading into the direction my mind was working (not quite 100% sure...!) but somehow we have to (have to) make this page accessible to the 'Average Joe', and not just to those who seem to spend their entire lives consumed with how this page looks. I think if people visit the nominations page, most of the time their concern is with who is currently nominated. That's by far the most important piece of information on this page. So we should highlight it somehow. Or is my attitude unique (besides cds of course!)....?? Budgiekiller 20:49, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Highlight the row of people up for the public vote one colour, and then the column of the current week in another colour, or perhaps even the same one. Then, where they meet would be where current public vote-ees would be. --JD[talk|email] 20:54, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Now we're talking! I like the idea. I was also a shade confused that the page was called "...Nominations..." and the ultimate row was deemed as "...Against public vote..." so, really, this page is missing a trick. Ultimately, while it records who votes against whom, it ignores that and simply heads to who faces the phone vote. Just a minor point. Heading back the main point, let's really try to work on making it clearer to the non-editor. Budgiekiller 20:58, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Can the outermost cells (ie the ones that have housemates' names and Week numbers in them) be highlighted as well, so it's a bit clearer what the point of the highlighting would be? --JD[talk|email] 21:05, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- I'm sure they could be. We need a wiki-mark-up-pro to help...! Budgiekiller 21:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

New house...
Right, well, I think it's about time we got some discussion and ideas going for how we're going to structure the table for the secret new housemates before everyone starts their frantic editing later tonight? Nobody knows as of yet if nominations with the 5 new housemates (and Aisleyne/Susie) will take place in the new house but we have to accomodate this if it happens. I was thinking a light sky blue colour or something, to distinguish the new housemates (plus Aisleyne/Susie) whilst staying in the house next door... comments? — FireFox 17:11, 30 June '06
- Sounds good to me. Perhaps put them in a new table underneath until they become real housemates? —Celestianpower háblame 17:12, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
- Nothing wrong with including them in the group, as long as they're distinguishable... that's what we did when last series' housemates were in the secret garden... — FireFox 17:13, 30 June '06
- Hmm - but they're not housemates, either officially or unofficially. They might never go into the house. Unlike the secret garden (which was at least part of the house), this is a separate house altogether. As such, a separate table, in my opinion, would show what's actually going on the best. —Celestianpower háblame 17:16, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
- Wouldn't something like this do?

- Oh, and by the way, the 5 new people entering tonight are being referred to as housemates, both by Davina and by Channel 4 themselves. Even though they're not in the main house, they're still in the Big Brother house, and are housemates. — FireFox 17:24, 30 June '06
