Before the launch programme, Channel 4 presented a statement from Ofcom explaining the racism incidents from Celebrity Big Brother earlier in the year. The statement said: Ofcom is a regulator for communication industries in the United Kingdom. ...

"This is a summary of findings from Ofcom, the communications regulator, about the Channel 4 series "Celebrity Big Brother." In January 2007, Ofcom received over 44,500 complaints, mainly about potentially racist material. Ofcom has concluded that Channel 4 failed to handle appropriately the strong content it was transmitting. This resulted in breaches of the Ofcom Broadcasting Code, which is designed to ensure that when broadcasters show potentially offensive material, they do so in a way which offers adequate protection to the viewer. Ofcom has found that Channel 4 breached the Code on three separate occasions. Its decision to repeat one of these incidents in its early morning show resulted in a further breach for failing to protect children. There was also a serious failure in Channel 4's compliance processes which meant that it was not aware of all the relevant activity in the House at a particularly critical time. This compounded its failure to ensure compliance with the Code. These are significant failings. Ofcom has therefore imposed a formal sanction on Channel Four, directing it to broadcast this statement. This ensures that the largest number of viewers will be made fully aware of the seriousness of Channel 4's failure to comply. For the full adjudication please visit www.ofcom.org.uk

This was followed immediately by a Channel 4 ident, and then the Big Brother titles. Channel 4 also broadcast the Ofcom statement on the morning of 31 May 2007 before the early morning repeat, and again immediately before the first eviction on Friday 15 June.[18] is the 151st day of the year (152nd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Popularity of the series

Channel 4 announced on 24 August that they were cancelling the next series of Celebrity Big Brother.

House

It was initially believed that this would be the last series to be aired from the house in Elstree Studios, with a new house set to be built in Hammersmith for 2008, although, Endemol decided to renew the lease at its current location for another two years. Historically, the name Elstree Studios refers to any of several film studios that were based in the towns of Borehamwood and Elstree in Hertfordshire, England. ...

The layout of the house remained much the same as the previous series, although the kitchen moved to the other side of the main living area.[2] Many of the kitchen appliances were scattered around the house, with the oven and heat proof surface in the bedroom and the fridge in the garden. Where the oven is in the bedroom, is approximately where the kitchen area was located in Big Brother 7[32] Big Brother 7 might refer to: Big Brother 2006 (UK), the seventh series of the UK reality television series Big Brother UK (2000-) Big Brother 7 (US), also known as Big Brother 7: All-Stars, the All-Stars edition of the US reality television series Big Brother (2000-) Big Brother...


The bedroom contained a single, double and triple bed as well as two four-person beds. Outside the bedroom window, in the main living area, is a lip shaped sofa that the presenters of the show refer to as "the lips". The house also contains a salon/bathroom, which houses two large hair dryers and two steam suits.[2]


Garden

As well as the kitchen fridge, the garden contained a swimming pool, a seating area[citation needed] and, due to the smoking ban that came into effect in all public places during the series, a smoking area which housemates had to use from 1 July. This was checked by health officials, and deemed acceptable.[33] The grass from the previous series has been replaced with AstroTurf.[citation needed] The garden was one of the smallest this year, in comparison to the garden in Big Brother 7.

On Day 25 it was revealed that a caravan was hidden behind a garden wall. The caravan came with two single beds and sleeping bags. Brian and Charley went "on holiday" to the caravan for one night.[34] The caravan was again accessible from day 36, this time any of the housemates were allowed to use the room.[35]


An extension to the pool was revealed on Day 67, along with a bar area. The area was hidden behind the "wet" sign in the garden.[36]


"The Insider" on BBLB revealed that there was a fully-functioning washing machine hidden in the garden, throughout the show.[37] Dermot O'Leary revealed this to the housemates during the BBLB reunion show. Seán Dermot Fintan OLeary, Jr. ...


Because of the Big Brother 7 water shortage, the garden included a water tower, which at the beginning of the series was full. The water tower was located next to the fridge and the mangle.


Vestibule

Between the entrance/exit stairs and the main house was a vestibule area.[2] This was used for several tasks, rewards and punishments, such as Ziggy's dating task, Amanda and Sam's birthday party, the punishments on Day 43, and the "Sin Bin" which is the room Charley was made to stay in while the rest of the housemates had their sin party.[citation needed]


Diary Room

A corridor was added between the Diary Room door and the main house which changes colour from red to blue to green when the "eye" button to open the door is pressed. The diary room chair has been changed to a much larger see-through chair which contains white neon lights.[2] For Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack, the lights inside the chair were coloured purple, to keep up with E4's theme. The diary room resides in almost the same place as last year, but set back a bit, making the living area larger.


As in recent years, the diary room was used for several tasks. The Time Machine from Big Brother's time machine task was in the diary room. It was also used for the Seven Deadly Sins task. For other uses, see Cardinal sin (disambiguation) and Seven deadly sins (disambiguation). ...


Hidden rooms

The House contained a number of hidden rooms that were accessed either through the diary room or through a store room off the living area. At various points in the show, all or part of these rooms were opened up for various tasks and twists.

  • One of these rooms was slept in by Thaila Zucci, in her role as "Pauline", and it was Australia-themed and contained a kangaroo statue, a surfboard, plants and beanbags. The bedroom also contained the dossier from which "Pauline" could find out things about her housemates. Only "Pauline" was allowed in the room at that time.[38]
  • The rooms were later on used to house five 'halfway housemates' as part of a nominations twist. It included a dormitory, common room, wash room and kitchenette as well as a small garden.[citation needed]

Periodically throughout the series, housemates conducted various tasks in some of these rooms. A kitchenette is a cooking area in small apartments, hotel rooms, college dormitories, or office buildings. ...

  • For the BBTV task, a newsroom was built, where two housemates transmitted news to the rest of the house, such as messages from home.[39] The rooms were also used as a studio for a gameshow and later a talent show.
  • It was used as a "The Happy Room" to cheer up Charley and Billi, who were instructed to wear "happy" t-shirts and baseball caps for the duration of their stay. The room was full of red beanbags, and featured cheery slogans on the walls. While in the room, Big Brother played the tune, If You're Happy and You Know It.[40]
  • During the seven deadly sins task, it was turned into "The Room of Nicky" and contained pictures, books and footage of Nicky and also a sofa with cushions spelling N-I-C-K-Y. Nicky was instructed to stay in the room and learn to appreciate herself until Big Brother allowed her to leave.[citation needed]
  • For Big Brother's birthday task, a Practice Room was built, where the entertainers had to practise.[41] A party room was then provided with a ball pool and stage.[42]

If Youre Happy and You Know It is a popular childrens song, or nursery rhyme, credited to songwriter Alfred B. Smith (1916-2001). ...

Housemates

Main article: List of Big Brother 2007 housemates (UK)

There were twenty-four housemates in total in this series of Big Brother in the UK, more than ever before. Each week, two or more housemates were nominated to be evicted by the general public until the winner was left. All of the housemates that entered on the first day were female, then on the third day; a male housemate - Ziggy - entered the house.[43] On June 7, 2007 it was announced on Big Brother's Big Mouth that Day 10 would see the addition of two male housemates, in replacement of the cancelled eviction.[44] These two housemates were Gerry and Seány. On June 15, four new male housemates entered the house. They were Billi, Jonathan, Liam, and Brian. Jonathan left on Day 35 due to a family death from day 34 that he wanted to attend to[4][45] A new housemate called "Pauline" entered the house on 8 July, supposedly from Big Brother Australia, however, her true identity was actress Thaila Zucchi, and worked as a mole for Big Brother, before being removed on Day 42.

This article documents the highlights of Big Brother 2007 (UK). ...


Criticism and controversy

Nine days into the new series, Channel 4 was criticised for deciding to air the word "nigger" on their daily highlights show.[47] After the criticism they received for not handling the Celebrity Big Brother racism allegations properly back in January, they were quick to intervene after Emily used the word in conversation with Charley. On the other hand, Charley and Nicky subsequently used the same contentious word several times, in reference to Emily's use. No action was seen to be taken against them.[48] After Emily's disqualification from the competition was announced, 922 viewers complained to Ofcom, the British television regulator, believing that it was unfair.[49] Another 270 people expressed dissatisfaction with Channel 4's decision to air the word "nigger" uncensored.[49] Parr was invited on BBLB, which also caused disturbances, but postponed her appearance. The press and Dermot presumed she postponed due to the controversy, but as she revealed in her BBLB interview, it was not. // Nigger is a racial slur used to refer to dark-skinned people, especially those of African ancestry. ... Celebrity Big Brother 2007 was the fifth series of the United Kingdom reality television series Celebrity Big Brother, a spin-off of Big Brother. ...

Furthermore, on Day 40, Channel 4 confirmed that Charley had been called to the Diary Room and reprimanded after using the word "nigger" twice on one night. This was not broadcast on the nightly highlights programme or the live feed, further enflaming rumours about favouritism towards Charley. A Big Brother spokesperson claimed "Charley used the N-word as a black woman to refer to another black person. We judged her use of the term different from Emily's. But Big Brother called her to the Diary Room to remind her that this word could cause offence."[50][51]


Charley was given a third and final warning by Big Brother on Day 55 when she implied that housemate Gerry was a paedophile. Over 300 people complained to Ofcom when Charley said that Gerry liked to "sleep with 15-year-olds".[52][53]

Note 1: Ziggy was told by Big Brother that he would be the only housemate allowed to nominate for the first eviction vote on Day 7.[3] The eviction was later cancelled due to Emily being removed before the eviction could take place.[54]


Note 2: New housemates Seány and Gerry were two of four housemates allowed to nominate, and together they had to choose the other two housemates nominating with them. They chose Sam and Amanda to nominate.


Note 3: Nicky and Charley were among those receiving the most nominations, but Billi and Charley's nominations were discounted so Nicky and Charley did not face the public vote.[55]


Note 4: The evicted housemate, Charley, was interviewed by Davina, with the interview shown on the plasma screen in the house, and then put back in the house.[56]


Note 5: Nominations took place on a Sunday (Day 47) instead of a Monday (Day 48). Chanelle and Ziggy were asked to nominate one housemate each, instead of the usual two housemates, as punishment for discussing nominations previously.[57]


Note 6: After continuous swapping of housemates between the Main House and the Halfway House, the housemates remaining in the Halfway House faced the public vote on from Day 65. However, the second twist to this was whoever faced the votes had an even bigger chance of being evicted, as there was a double eviction.[58]


Note 7: Amanda and Sam chose to become one housemate on Day 69. However, as a result they both faced the public vote.[59]


Note 8: For week 11's shopping task those who won mini-tasks gained "guru status" and were immune from eviction. All other housemates automatically faced the public vote[60] but the Gurus had to decide from the two housemates with the highest number of votes (this was Carole with 49% and Gerry with 24%) who to evict.[61]


Note 9: In Week 12 there was a double eviction.[62]


Note 10: There were no nominations in the final week as the public were voting for the housemate they wanted to win.
