"Coming Up.../Previously.../Tonight..." Previews Are FAR Too Long!
In the Channel 4 days, it was usually a quick 5 second flash that had a one liner or a funny scene and that was it. It was up to you to wonder what was happening until we saw it after the break.
Now on Channel 5 the "Previously / Tonight / Coming Up" previews usually last well over a minute and shows the most interesting bit of what happens after the break, so you hardly need to watch because you've already seen it. Less is more, Channel 5! Seriously. One of a few things that is ruining this show. |

I find it so annoying. Like you say, the most best parts of the programme have already been shown by the time it gets to it.
Reminds me a bit of this sketch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MFtl2XXnUc |

Every time Emma or Rylan say "we only get to see an hour of a full day" i always shake my head. We see closer to half an hour than a full hour with all the ads and filler crap.

Tonight we have the pleasure of all the padding, plus voting numbers being read out over and over again and two evictions and interviews, as well as the "blink and you'll miss them" highlights. All crammed into around 42 minutes, once you subtract the adverts.

Highlights are now really just video clips on the Channel 5 website and 10 mins on TV
