• Rule 1: Housemates must respect the House and their fellow contestants at all times.

• Rule 2: The Housemates will have no contact with the outside world and they are kept busy by the various tasks
  and challenges set by Biggie. Being in such close proximity with a house
  full of strangers can be tough going and Biggie has set rules that need
  to be followed.

• Rule 3: Big Brother has complete control over everything
  going on in the house and Biggie never discusses anything that goes on
  outside of the house with anyone inside.

• Rule 4: The Housemates are filmed 24/7 and they must have
  their microphones on at all times. The viewers must be able to hear all
  conversations at all times and are not allowed to whisper or cover their
  mouths while speaking to fellow Housemates. They are also not allowed
  to reveal the location of the cameras and microphones.

• Rule 5: Diary Sessions are one of the most important aspects
  of the show’s success and are compulsory. Once a Housemate is called to
  the Diary Room, they must drop everything they are doing and proceed to
  the Diary Room. Failure to do so will result in a fine, a strike, or
  worse. Housemates can request to enter the Diary Room at any time of the
  day or night. Sunglasses and hats are not permitted in the Diary Room.
  The door for the Diary Room will be locked when not in use and no one is
  allowed into the room if it is occupied.

give valid reasons for nominating a fellow Housemate. Biggie reserves
the right to take his time to answer any questions, but will always

this rule are events such as Head of House Tasks.
