    If one year BB put all actors into the house but didn't tell them that the others were actors and had to have them act as complete idiots.

    eh...

    No.

    It would become quite tedious after a while.

    Even the Joe Schmo Show became wearing after a few episodes. For those of you who don't know JSS, it was a BB type scenario where all of the housemates and crew were actors, bar one "contestant".

    Yea but they wouldn't and that would be the whole punchline to it. The actors are the contestants.

    They should bring back Sha-Baz...you couldn't get someone to come up with that stuff! They couldn't be actors although some years I think one or two night be... that makosi was well odd last year...
    Did anyone read that article where they said she admitted that after having failed to win BB6 - she became a prostitute!! Is that a natural progression or something?

    So you reckon that 12 working actors would be able to do a complete run of BB without the English tabloid press getting wind of it? Hmmmm.......

    Well bazmo, i reckon they would. But I view it another way.

    Think of it like this. There is the Inside Out thing going on this year.
    The ones inside the house are actors working on a script. Hence everyone knowing everyone already.

    BB tells them what to do etc, and its the public that are being made a fool of instead of the housemates.

    The housemates are in on the whole thing, andkeep slipping up - hence the long winded sound dips when they're not talking about families, brands or any of the legalities or even cursing.


    Think about it..... ;)

    I know you're only joking but you scenario would never happen. It would be commercial suicide for the producers of the show because they would alienate their audience by trying to fool them. Plus why would you bother trying to manufacture something that happens better naturally.

    And there is no way in hell that they could do a complete serious without people finding out that the "contestants" were actors. Family, friends, fellow actors. At least one person would leak it to the press.

    Ahhhhhh but it got ya thinking about it didnt it :D

    Well of course the public would know they were actors (after they went in). Each actor is told to act a certain way and the BB room could be a place to tell them what to change in regards to the acting.

    Tell them its ultra-secret, you have them locked into a contact so none of this walking crap and then do a deal with the tabloids so as to hold off spilling the beans.

    :D Congrats on the new job. When do you get to the studios to start? ;)

    They have been doing that since they started doing auditions.
