i'd like to see the return of proper 2 day tasks that kept the HMs up thru the night, having to work together to earn their food

i think it was BB1 - the HMs had to cycle the length of britian for one of the shopping tasks and in BB4 they were on a pedalo, (i can't remember how far they had to go)

its these kind of tasks that i'd like to see - make em work, its not supposed to be butlins

the box task was one of my favorites and the silent disco from BB7, the electric shock has been done to death but it is still funny

i don't like spiteful tasks that are designed just to cause conflict between the HMs
They had to keep pedalling for above 60 or so revolutions a minute for 72 hours with two people on the pedalo at all times. This was a simple, but yet challenging task at the same time and one I think would work well in today's BB.

Like many others I want to see the return of the 2-3 day tasks which continued overnight - all adds to the stress levels. The hms have had it too easy in terms of tasks over recent BBs imo and even when they fail never seem to go hungry so there's little incentive to complete them..

Interesting how some of the people who want these tasks back are the same ones who keep slamming production for not being original

Big long tasks, don't really care for what we've got in recent years. Electric shock task is so very boring now. Box task was very funny, but should only be used for a smaller midweek random task.

Can't really think of any but just as long as it's long and very tough to do I will be happy. Physical and mental endurance tasks, crazy tasks, etc. Like extremely tough, zero opting out type stuff. Overnight obviously, maybe a few nights for even bigger tasks. Dangerous tasks also, maybe even Saw torture type ones.

My favourite idea would be when it gets to the final few weeks they should really just remove Big Brother. Leave them to do what they want. No voice overs, no diary room, no food(allow them to keep what they've got), etc Just see what happens.
