This makes me believe those conspiracy theories that Desmond just wanted CBB and to ditch the main series.

How can you possibly have a watchable, hour long discussion programme, when the programme you're discussing is exactly the same length?

Plus, people have started to realise that the interesting part - news from the house - always occurs 15 minutes before the end of the programme, so they just tune in for that and avoid all the rest.

with shows like this Fans need so much info to really argue the pros and cons of various Housemates.You simply cant do that this time around.

Ofc some people are going to love the highlight shows but they have to accept the amount Endemol/Channel 5 are sharing with the viewers is only a tiny amount and nothing else.Watch for fun but its impossible trying to form opinions about these people.

From all I have read, they really struggle to get the audience members, and often it ends up with lots of the regular BB crew. Perhaps thats why it seems we have seen them all before.

Its carp anyway, and I would be ashamed to watch it.

This particular regular series is fast slipping away and 5 already resorting to desperate measures to maintain interest

Live feed is a 'dead subject' to them now and I think that may just have sealed their epitaph

I have been away so havent seen any of this BB yet
but when the ratings go really low expect the first BB sex to happen

There's been endless talk of sex, genitalia, hoops, not to mention assorted embryonic fauxmances in the planning stage. Not much in the way of entertainment but this is C5, you wouldn't expect there to be.

That's what they are showing us. Not necessarily an accurate presentation of what's going on in the House.

I have no doubt this lot are pretty much on a par with all the other HMs we've seen down the years. But we have no way of confirming that, sadly.

Well, Bex from BB9 was on one of those Babestation channels the other night.

She'd be straight in their riding Aaron like a good 'un for a tube of Pringles and a fresh cream donut

I was hoping they wouldnt be that predictable sadly the series is as I thought .
I didnt watch yesterdays, I take it it was the same tone again?

It was. I think I'd be able to live without the LF if the h/l show was on a par with BB2/5/6/7 - but it's just absolutely bilge. Constant fauxmance in the air, girls flirting, guys flirting, comparing dick size etc etc. There's just no stimulating conversation. This lot make the likes of Mikey Dalton and Dale Howard look like Stephen Fry.

Scripted. Soap. Opera.

No wonder they're so dead set against live feed, even if the lack of it means pitiful viewing figures. I begin to think Desmond can make more money with Romp! headlines etc in his papers and mags with 1m BB viewers than he could without them and with 2m+ people watching...

Would be interesting to see the circulation figures for the DS over the next few weeks

[Scots rool]

Look like BB is going down the tubes........Big Brother hit a new low with 1.18m viewers Spin-off show Bit on the Side rounded off the evening's programmes with 405k

DS has the ratings even lower than above......

Big Brother continued with 1.16m, and spinoff Big Brother's Bit On The Side entertained 383k from 11pm.

Didn;t BBOTS go as low as c260k a few nights ago?

[xtglx]

Been revised down to 1.16m apparently (the show ran on past 11pm)... Worst BB ratings ever. Quite apt really considering its the worst BB ever.

Whoah, that's bad!

There have been 'feelers' out on the board and they get told what's what but the response in the programme is to show more conversation NOT sex related.

That's supposed to get us 'connected' with these HMs. But underlying all of this is that this BB is selling smut and papers and won't do the big thing necessary to get a real BB up and running - Live Feed.

Nothing about this BB rings true - they've all obviously been given a brief of how they're expected to act, roles, and are HMs who have already been acting, modelling, whatever is the current euphemism!

Fake as a £2 note!
