'''Gold - 20 Super Hits''' is a [[1993 in music|1993]] [[compilation album]] by [[Disco]]/[[Eurodance]] group [[Boney M.]]. Shortly after record label [[PolyGram]] had acquired the rights to the ABBA back catalogue and had issued the multimillion-selling hits package ''[[Gold - Greatest Hits]]'', [[BMG]] and producer [[Frank Farian]] followed suit with Boney M.'s ''Gold - 20 Super Hits'' which resulted in their best chart entry in the UK (#14 - see ''[[The Greatest Hits (Boney M. 1993)|The Greatest Hits]]'') and most other European countries since 1980's ''[[The Magic Of Boney M. - 20 Golden Hits]]''.

Whoever put the comment about Emily not hearing about Joy Division is a legend!!! Joy Division were amazing.

The album covers of some editions of the ''Gold'' career retrospective declared that these were the 'original masters' which was a truth with modification since producer Farian not only had edited most of the tracks but also had provided them with synthesized 90's percussion (disco hi-hats, sampled tambourines and handclaps). These new-ish mixes have since been presented as the original 70's versions on most Boney M. hit collections issued in the 90's and 2000's, including 2006's ''[[The Magic of Boney M.]]''.

This [http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2001320029-2007070930,00.html] clearly is for the 2007 series. The article, dated February 17, 2007 and says that the building will be used for, and I quote, "this summer's reality show". Anyone still disagree? [[User:Dalejenkins|Dalejenkins]] 08:21, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

''Gold - 20 Super Hits''/''[[The Greatest Hits (Boney M. 1993)|The Greatest Hits]]'' included a new "Boney M. Megamix" which had given Boney M. their 10th UK Top 10 entry in December of 1992 (#7, 7 weeks. Germany #26, 11 weeks.).

I can't see how they would have it ready in time. However i would love for the new ___location to be used for this season. I think it should stay as it is for now as you are right about what the article says so there's no reason to delete it yet. However i highly suspect that they will use the same ___location as last year for this season.

:I too heard that this is for next season, and not this season. Can't remember where I heard this though. [[User:Paul Norfolk Dumpling|Paul Norfolk Dumpling]] 18:58, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

==Start Date?Production==

* Frank Farian - [[producer]], [[remixer]]

{{Boney M.}}

Has it been confirmed when the show will start? It says "Beginning of May 2007", but it's that now, and I still haven't seen any adverts for the show, which is unusual [[User:Paul Norfolk Dumpling|Paul Norfolk Dumpling]] 18:54, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

::::Just so you know, it starts on 31 May, I read this on the report about Davina's sick baby, on sky news interactive. [[User:Paul Norfolk Dumpling|Paul Norfolk Dumpling]] 22:17, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

:::::Again that could just be speculation, until we have a press release from Channel 4 or Endemol, then we shouldn't put the start date in the article. Thanks. -- [[User:Chris as I am Chris|Chris as I am Chris]] 07:47, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Start date is 1st june; 8:30 according to http://press.channel4.com/listings/live/C4/live/2007_22/01_06_2007.htm also shows BBBM and live feed throughout the night, no mention of BB on previous dates - [[User:89.243.218.81|89.243.218.81]] 17:46, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

:Nice. Added it to the article. --'''[[User:Lorian|Lorian]]'''^{[[User_talk:Lorian|T]]}_{[[Special:Contributions/Lorian|C]]} 19:15, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

That article does not indicate the start date. All it indicates is that Big Brother will be on, on that day, not that its launching. Most of the tabloids and TV magazines are now saying it is May 30th. Source: Today's Heat Magazine.

The start date has been announced by C4 press as '''9pm Wednesday 30 May 2007'''. It has been added to the article, and I have added the reference. -- [[User:Chris as I am Chris|Chris as I am Chris]] 13:31, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

== Housemates ==

Pleasantview: Where are you getting all these names from? You have provided no source, except for "the source is within," whatever that is supposed to mean. This just looks like vandalism at the moment. --'''[[User:Lorian|Lorian]]'''^{[[User_talk:Lorian|T]]}_{[[Special:Contributions/Lorian|C]]} 10:02, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Lets just say I know more about this than you do.

There will be 15 housemates entering on the May 25, 2007 ([[User:Pleasantview|Pleasantview]] 10:05, 14 May 2007 (UTC))

:Please refer to [[WP:NOR]]. Facts in articles must be verifiable. --'''[[User:Lorian|Lorian]]'''^{[[User_talk:Lorian|T]]}_{[[Special:Contributions/Lorian|C]]} 10:07, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Official 15 housemates. Fine delete it. But save it in notepad and be sure to watch the premiere on the 25 and see the exact same names. {{unsigned|Pleasantview}}

[[The Sun]] should have an article about this later today or tomorrow. ([[User:Pleasantview|Pleasantview]] 10:16, 14 May 2007 (UTC))

:What is your point? "Later today or tomorrow" isn't now, therefore it is unverifiable. --'''[[User:Lorian|Lorian]]'''^{[[User_talk:Lorian|T]]}_{[[Special:Contributions/Lorian|C]]} 10:20, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

:Ok, thanks to Drunkenmonkey on IRC: "It stats in 417 hours,25mins according to the sun, but theres deffo no names on the page". I am reverting it back. If you do find a reliable source, post it here first. --'''[[User:Lorian|Lorian]]'''^{[[User_talk:Lorian|T]]}_{[[Special:Contributions/Lorian|C]]} 10:35, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

The names are far too plain for bb, this is false.

I have updated the main page - the false names WERE false.

:If you check Pleasantview's user talk page, you'll see that he (she?) has been acting in violation of Wikipedia policy a lot, although of course to some extent we are supposed to expect newcomers to make mistakes...-'''[[User:HisSpaceResearch|h i s]]''' ^{''[[User talk:HisSpaceResearch|s p a c e]]''} _{'''[[Special:Contributions/HisSpaceResearch|r e s e a r c h]]'''} 12:07, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

I have removed the section on where they are kept as there was no source, and I found a source from The Sun for who the housemates might be, and changed the text slightly [[User:Jrphayes|John Hayes]] 09:36, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

== Logo ==

I'm not sure the colours of the logo are meant to be a reference to the rainbow flag, i.e. a confirmation of the gay rumour. It looks more like the TV tuning screen of old days, so it is perhaps a sign of a self-referential media-related theme. The rainbow flag has no grey in it.

have another look

it has grey in it

== Dermot ==

The article states that Dermot O'Leary will be back to present BBLB, but I read elsewhere that he can't do BBLB because of his new commitment as presenter of The X Factor - is that right? <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[Special:Contributions/137.108.145.10|137.108.145.10]] ([[User talk:137.108.145.10|talk]]) 10:08, 16 May 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

::The article is right, he will be doing both X Factor by day, and BBLB by night. -- [[User:Chris as I am Chris|Chris as I am Chris]] 10:29, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

:::Yes, Dermot confirmed on Soccer AM (12th May) that the X-Factor auditions had already started and won't clash with BBLB, which he is still doing [[User:Artynmay|Artynmay]] 01:43, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

== Should the page be Semi-protected? ==

As we near the start of Big Brother 2007, many people are coming on and posting rumours and false statements, I think the page should be semi-protected, anyone agree? Thanks. -- [[User:Chris as I am Chris|Chris as I am Chris]] 15:40, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
