In a feature interview with The Senior, Mike Goldman recalled a health scare about 10 years ago when he could not hear his director through his earpiece while on stage. He later found out that he had serious hearing damage, and has been wearing hearing aids for day-to-day life since then.

Lot’s of influencers posting from the Big Brother house today on socials. Gotta say it is pretty smart promo strategy. It suddenly feels like the season has a fair bit more hype.

The house is looking super sleak this year too!

Beautiful night for it. Earlier rain has cleared - with no storms in sight ⛈

Traffic at a stand still leading into the studios.

I think it may be completely undercover in a studio, with an “outdoor” area made of opaque ceiling to look like skylights.

Tonight, there was an ad about the housemates, that two share a secret. I wonder what the secret is?

They’ve done a secret before though. Many many moons ago though. Mother and daughter in the house. And the twins secret too. Other secrets?

Apparently according to a person on the Behind BB forums whose friend went to the launch, Reggie’s sister is a housemate this season as is Keiran’s mum (he was in the 2020 season of BB on 7).
