TheCinera:
PPG, check your PM box.  Due to legal issues, I can't say how on the message board, but I can tell you through PM.  Anyone else wants to know how to Download them, I'll be more than happy to help.   ;D

JamesUK:
Hey everyone... thought I'd make this my first place of posting!

I'm intrigued to see that you guys from the US are going out of your way to watch the UK version - I personally go out of my way to watch the US version instead as I find it so much more rewarding!!

Maybe it's the excitement factor for me of having to 'acquire' it rather than just switch the TV on, making it seem like more of an event but I've always thought that BB USA was much more interesting given the fact that in the UK version housemates are forbidden from talking about nominations or making strategies.

For me, that's a huge missed opportunity because it basically makes the show into a marathon session of people just sitting around doing nothing and getting on each other's nerves!

I must admit I do still watch BB UK but it's a really different show and I think the USA version is much better. Then again, I am a huge fan of Survivor (which, again, I have to acquire!) so perhaps that whole strategy and alliance thing is more my cup of tea.

Anyway, I can't possibly venture into any UK based sites talking about Celeb BB UK as they are scary to say the least (if anyone wants to see what I mean check out www.digitalspy.co.uk!) but I'll be interested to see what you folks make of it!

Oh, and by the way, if you're thinking you might be missing something because you'd never heard of most of the celebrities, well, neither had most of the UK so don't feel too bad. Quite a ropy celeb line-up this year methinks!

 :lol:

Donny to go out first I think (LOSER!)

James (from the UK)

Jeffrey Scott:
James, welcome to the forum! We look forward to discussing the BBUK and CBB-UK with you.
I have the first episode downloaded, but have not had a chance to watch it tonight. I'll be saving that for tonight. I can't wait!
I'm not really all that worried about these celebs I have not heard of (most of them I've never heard of, some I have). When I watched
the recent Big Brother All Stars I was going in having only wtached the previous version of Big Brother with Howie, Kayser, Janelle and James.

As for downloading the episodes. Sometimes it's a pain like when you can't find any torrent of what you're looking for. Considering I have had to download several shows, I'm at least glad I have several hard drives with almost a total of 500 gigs.  :jumpy:

As for Survivor, at least most of those can be purchased in region one format. If you have a DVD player with region one coding, you can buy them for home. I wonder if BBUK is available on DVD.

At the end of the day, it is too bad we don't have a simpler, easier way to watch our favorite shows from whichever side of the pond we want to view. Yes, there is BBC-America over here, but I don't watch to many of the shows there, (though I did watch "Is There Life on Mars", which I thought was pretty good.

Again, welcome to the forum!

TheCinera:
James, welcome to RFF!  Glad to see we got another fan of BBuk here!   :jumpy:

I've seen the launch (premire) episode, and I have about 10minutes left of the download before the second episode is finished, and I must say (without spoiling the episode to Jeff) that it was a great start to the season.  Gave me goosebumps.  Donny will be nominated first, and evicted soon after.

I never thought about that, how acquiring the episode is just as much fun as watching it.  You are 100% right, and maybe that's why I love BBuk more.

I think they do have BBuk on DVD, but the coding is only for those in Europe.  I'll have to look into that, but I have heard that previous seasons were on DVD.
