Since Friday this forum has take a dramatic drop in posts. Every nigh since the series started there has been at least 4 new pages of posts between Midnight and Noon however since Saturday it has been only 3 pages that is a big drop. Perhaps BB don't care but it will be interesting to see if the audience numbers drop off dramatically this week.

Perhaps BB will regret loosing 3 big characters on Friday, they should have though about that before they let it happen.

Danielle shouldn't have gone.

Kimberly saw the hate and bolted out the front door.


Bianca would have just been Helens annoying bitch.


If Kimberly was actually really sick (she left at 11am the show was at 9pm!) they should have only evicted Bianca, they couldn't afford to lose 2 permanent housemates.

We only have one female housemate that has actually earned her place there.

I don't think the volume of pages is representative of the quality of the discussion. Some days there have been so many new threads on the same topic it has been impossible to get any sort of discussion going. Several times I have turned away because it was impossible to see where the debate was actually taking place. Had the 4 or 5 responses, to each of the multiple threads on the same subject, all been amalgamated on one thread, it would perhaps have attracted more responders.

I think the quality of discussion has been so low that quite a few have given up on even trying to have a good discussion. It's mostly just the same things repeated again and again as if no one had ever responded, plus endless accusations and insinuations that forum members have double standards.

BB is over for me. I am annoyed at the producers manipulating evictions. I am angry at the three new housemates given the choice. I watched last night's episode and it dragged, the house felt dead. BB have ruined it. Danielle should be there and Bianca would have been dynamic. I agree BB have messed up and we have weeks to go. Evictions should have been cancelled when Kim went to the hospital.

I suspect your nor alone there are a lot of my fav posters have done the same

I agree.

It is nothing to do with quality it is the quantity I am talking about every night for 6 weeks there were 4 pages and then two night running there are 3 that is very big difference in the number of posters.

actually last night was the third highest rated show of the series so there goes that idea I guess

Losing three females in one day was a big mistake IMO. They should have cancelled the evictions on Friday night. The women bring the most interest and excitement to the house, even though the viewers love to hate them. It is boring when they go.

However, it fits my view that there's less discussion because the quality of discussion has become so poor. Plenty of people are still watching, but there's less interest in discussing it here.

I haven't watched the show since Friday night. Armageddon was crap, as expected. Kimberly's fast-tracked exit followed by Bianca and then (most unfairly) Danielle so annoyed and disappointed me I no longer care what happens to the others, nor who should eventually win. Perhaps that dubious honour really is being saved for BB Pet, Helen. She's a vicious, foul-mouthed trout - and always will be.

What a shame this BB has proved to be such a catastrophe.

There is very little good discussion about the show because everyone just wants to bash it and moan on and on.

Everyone?. The reason a lot of people are moaning imo is because they used to love the show but this year it has been manipulated from day 1.

And me three.

Although I do think there's precious little of interest to discuss right now. Losing 4 HMs in one week, 3 of whom were women who stirred a lot of discussion, has been a bit of a disaster. Hoping it's temporary but hoping even more that BB don't meddle by creating conflict like they usually do when there's a lull.

There was a lot of posts on here about Kim, Danielle and Bianca last week, to lose 3 lasses in a week is massive. As much as Kim got a lot of stick on here she caused a lot of posts and interest. The same goes for Danielle as well really.

I liked Kim but was not a fan of Danielle, but there was plenty to write about them both!

meh , it's just (and always has been) a trashy reality show , are the "rules" really all that sacred? , I watch it to be entertained. It's not so fun to discuss a show when all anyone wants to do is drag the show down.

I think people should give it a rest about Kim. What a ridiculous idea that she bolted because of the hate for her. Kim had already told Steven she didn't care what others thought of her, it was him that mattered. I think she was genuinely ill myself and she is missed in the house.

Biannca was in the house for less than a week.....doubt she dicteded how busy the forums been over the last weeks

Yup, I think you're right re it being worse for losing them.

I perhaps am a bit of a stoneheart when it comes to BB and personally I'd love a show where conflict is actively encouraged, even more. The contestants should be fully aware of this from the off and enter the house at their own discretion.

Before I get jumped on by people telling me what a terrible person I am, I would never want to see anyone suffer any genuine harm or proper distress- just want it to be more panto villain badness a la the Apprentice where they will stab each other in the back for a sniff of Siralan's praise.

You are a terrible person. May I be the first to jump on you?

I thought you'd never ask.

The weather is too nice to spend too much time on the forum

Because there's no live feed, discussion stagnates, no funny moments churning over, no moments of interest to focus on.

Things that producers put on Youtube or on Twitter aren't necessarily what (some) people want.

No-one who isn't a child, should want to be spoonfed.

It's been fixed to give Helen a good chance of winning, all the easily influence viewers and the much valued Apple users are going alone with the producers' over simplistic narrative, as expected.

Helen is the tart with heart of gold, the hooker who's also a looker .....like Stacey Slater from East Enders, as someone put it.

As far as I'm concern, Helen not a very nice person and not my idea of entertainment...and hopefully she'll disappear soon after she leaves the House and I wouldn't have to put up with her until she drags herself into the public eye when the next world cup comes along.

I really miss the rolly eye smiley at times

If they could condense Chris, Christopher and Ashleigh together, I might have a Housemate I want to support.

I do like Zoe but feel like it's not fair for someone like her to go in - a ringer.

I'm going to go for a nice walk, perhaps have a drink, if I can find a pub that hasn't been turned into East European quickie mart or an estate agents....and hopefully that stupid chip shop with the unpredictable, irregular, opening hours will be open and I can treat myself to some kids chips...and one of those horrible but addictive vegetable spring rolls.

Bye, until the next time

I'm struggling to be honest. Every BB series is disappointing when it comes to chucking out large personalities and women too. This series the large personalities are ALL women aside from Mark's packaged glossy exterior (and Steven, I suppose) yet the female hms are dropping at an extraordinary rate. I can't count Kim among the recent departures as she was lost weeks ago when originally snared by Steven, but Bianca and Danielle are definitely worth mourning.

Oddly, the only remaining housemates I consider interesting and worth watching are Helen and Steven and one (or arguably both) is thoroughly unlikeable so there really are slim pickings. The producers and the audience have really screwed the pooch this go round. It's disheartening.

The public seem to want bores to win this year, it should be a riveting final
