And this is coming from a straight bloke!

I'm no prude but sex and nudity has been nauseatingly prevalent so far this series. I hope things calm down a bit. And yes I do understand the producers are partly to blame as well, as they are responsible for the edit and I'm not sure all of it was pressing enough that it needed to make the show. Obviously the scenes in the bath tub were too relevant to leave out, but some of the conversations earlier in the day could have been.

I had to laugh when Lee Ryan complained that the subject up for discussion was "too deep" when Liz and Jim were tackling world peace amongst other serious issues. That two minute segment was more interesting than anything that one-dimensional dullard has offered up so far. He says he's a tits man, but I think he meant tit full stop.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to be too down on this series because it's still early days and I think the potential is there for it to be great but so far it's been too lewd and I think if that continues viewers will turn off because it soon becomes uncomfortable to watch. The elders in the house aren't being respected at all, the youngsters are basically running riot.

I'd go as far as to say that the only young housemate who is coming across well so far is Ollie. The others are battling it out for the title of most desperate for airtime. No wonder his odds to win are shortening rapidly!

I agree, I love SEX I love it but this not about sex its about being cheap. They act like laboratory rabbits.

People who are truly sexy and appealing are those that needn't to put on display so openly.

OR maybe I am just getting old.

Lee Ryan likes to make out that he's an intelligent bloke who's interested in animal rights and social issues, but really he's as thick as two short planks and that comments really displayed that. It comes to something when you'd rather watch Jim Davidson prattling on more than anyone else.

Exactly, he's got about as much depth as Kirk Norcross.

Exactly. It's only been three days for heaven's sake. Cheap is a good word for it. If this was two weeks in I might take a slightly less dim view, but as it is you can't help but watch open mouthed!

Sam is also in there but we don't see her as I don't think she's really bothered about acting out sex scenes for more air time.

I agree. It's not what I watch Big Brother for. I get nothing out of it. If I want to watch porn I'll watch porn. That, to me, is not entertainment and if it's a taste of things to come I won't be watching for much longer. I really didn't enjoy it tonight for that reason. My favourite moments were the conversations between the older housemates like Jim, Linda and Liz's but they were so few and far between.

That sums it up so well.
Jim Davidson flag-waving for nukes is better viewing than pathetic (in all senses) Dappy willy-waving, tacky girls swapping saliva, or Lee Ryan apparently developing such balls ache after a couple of days that he has to be despatched to the bathroom for a wnk.

Sam has been a revelation for me. More class in her fingertips than the likes of some of them.

C5 give them far too much alcohol, the whole show is getting really crude even by BB standards.

Bizarre to think think you'd want to hear more from Jim, but you're so right. A little depth BB, less smut.

When it comes to women, I tend to find less is more. Louisa and Jasmine just come across as a pair of tarts and Dappy too. Desperate comes mind.

Jim Davidson had the best moment of the episode during the discussion with Liz. Lee Ryan isn't a deep guy at all as he tries to portray. Otherwise he would have got involved in that discussion.

Good point. I had failed to take Sam into account when writing that bit. Which says a lot about how underrepresented she has been in the edit so far.

The producers must resist giving in to the most camera hungry of the housemates all of the time. Sam seems normal and down to earth, something this series could do with more of. Just because she doesn't feel the need to do anything outrageous or practically signpost bits she wants to be shown on telly doesn't mean she is any less interesting than any of the others in there. Quite the opposite is true, we want housemates that have more to them than that.

It did get a wee bit monotonous tonight. I don't think it was too much sex, it was too much conscious showing off for the cameras about how 'sexy' people were. I think they showed about three times as much truth or dare as was really entertaining.

I would rather hear what Jim, Lional and Linda have to say than watch the cringe worthy antics of the desperado's.

Whew! I thought it was just me and 67 years. Like most - yes, porn is ok , but porn in private and on our own terms, this is being forced on me and is making BB look desperate. Like the others have said here, I'm clinging to Jim and Linda's every word and wishing Lionel would wake up. If it carries on like this I really may have to give up for the first time ever. Then we are told that none of these idiots are leaving - I was hanging onto that in the hopes we'd get some fresh, less desperate blood. but no. Please BB this is really the pits now.

Reminds me of BB5.

I'm actually finding it quite interesting to see how low they'll sink for air time.

It's about balance - seeing them shed their inhibitions and have fun is fine and is desperately needed at times but we could have had some serious talk chucked into the mix. It seems that Jim, Linda and Liz have some interesting conversations and having more of them edited in with the Bangers of Borehamwood would have helped no end.

The oldies seemed to be edited out tonight

This is the first time Jim Davidson is needed to reduce smut too!

Feels like an episode of Geordie Shore.

Yes, and Ollie and Sam. I hope they don't think that endless contrived flirty games, sexual boasting and pretend nearly sex scenes are all that is needed to fill a programme. I do wonder sometimes about the editing; it is incredibly hard to get a feel for a show that we only see for an hour a day, but surely someone is having amusing or interesting or revealing conversations?

Very true

You're right Nan. But hey give yourself credit for being older. As we age sex gets soooo much nicer. Young ones don't really experience awesome sex until they hit about 35, Lots to look forward to I suppose the downside of being older is that if I need to 'go on my knees' *ahem* it takes me hours to get up again

The majority of the woman in that house are behaving like slappers
