The live stream was late, but luckily it did cover some good stuff (from Marcus/Siavash/Norion, Issac Entry, Kenneth escape etc etc, and the HMs were certainly good.

It did feel like a very crappy cheap version of BB. I remember being very excited for the launch only to find it to be terrible. The only time I've considered not watching based on the launch alone. A tiny crowd, barely any atmosphere, no house tour, a real rushed feel and a terrible twist.

The whole non-housemates thing coulda been half decent but the fact they crammed the first bit of the twist into the launch and it was "draw a face on someone" showed they really didn't care.

I think Channel 4 clearly wanted BB of its books by then, if they could have got out of their contract I think they would have given in after BB9. Its a pity they didn't get behind it, BB10 is my favourite BB from the downward years, it had some of the better later Housemates in Sree, Marcus, Noirin, Bea, Freddie with a little more care and money behind it with Tasks and stuff it could have been a minor Classic.

They really let the Housemates run wild in the house but to be honest even the team behind BB Channel 4 had given up by then and were trying anything to win ratings back.

David and Lisa out on the town was the last straw I gave up on BB10. Pity for a while there it was shaping up to be very good.
