Sunday night, 9pm, it's a new series,
A series?

Oh WOW - how have I missed that. I've not seen clips or anything.

Brilliant!

It has been advertised, BB1 I think, I'll go check.

I've checked on BBCi player, it says an adaptation. Maybe it was a one-off. It was on for 90 minutes.

Yes it looks like a one-off, Cider with Rosie on next week.

When was The Go Between on? Is it a new version or the old film? I LOVE that film.

I must look at catch up.
They dazzled you with those shiny Downton baubles Penny. It was a new version on BBC 1 last night. Should be available on I player.

I'm well aware of that. I know how it works.

If the viewers who think she's so wonderful to the extent that they have now switched off had picked the phone up for her - she wouldn't have been in the bottom four.
no need to be quite so snotty, thank you,

When they stupidly put in a pain in the neck, who behaves like a vile idiot, viewers start watching to see the performance .
The performing monkey stops performing and the cheaply amused audience goes away.
Predictable.
Stop bringing in these one trick ponies.

Well imo they should do away with evictions altogether. The show just gets shitter as more and more housemates leave.
Just have 15 housemates or whatever and they stay right to the end.
Channel 5 could get their precious phone money by the viewers voting on which task to do, or which housemate has to do which task etc.
I've always thought that, the eviction thing is old hat now, although the meat heads seem to like it though so they can stand outside and boo people.

Instead of evicting people maybe they could be voted into a crapper house (and I mean a totally separate one not just a fence down the inside of the main house) and earn their way back into the main or better house.

And the posts on here are significantly down for the weekend compared to last weekend which is what some of us have been saying but were not believed. Farrah going has effected this board and the show.
No they're not. I know you've been on your soap box about this all day but really, the forum is just as busy. Loads of posts and quite a few people posting.

Well the figures should be higher than last week as it is getting close to the Final.

The viewing public alway save the vanilla characters, leaving the house deathly dull toward the end.

Of course there is a drop in posts because we have stopped criticising Farrah, simple. We are mostly a lot happier now she has gone as have no need to moan as much.
But people in general are over the moon to have Austin as the target now. Even though Austin has always been like this, he's the one along with Natasha who caused all the negativity with Farrah to start with 1st day. And he's always spoken to Janice like this. Always! I see just as much moaning as you put it about Austin now as I had with Farrah.

We is that the royal we?

But I do agree it's a bit early to call.

It does't cost anything to switch channels but it does to vote. Not everybody is dumb enough to waste their money on voting anymore.

To be fair Austin has made himself a target just as Farrah did. I will always disagree about Natasha, I don't believe she deliberately started any negativity, Austin, now he is a different matter. He was the one apparently gossiping to Natasha about Farrah.

I suspect Austin has gotten off lightly until now because of his 'friendship' with James. Many on here liked the 2 of them together.

personally I think Facebook is partially responsible as are the "BOTS" exclusives

FB was once used as the excuse for no LF as that's how (LAZY IMO) viewers wanted their fix. A bit like the demise of the "album" in favour of disposable downloads you get to see clips etc before the show...not just a teaser

There's so much now that the content is almost always known and pre judged. It's got to counter productive levels now....who needs the "show" apart from "live evictions"

Eve, be reasonable - please think of Danny, Chloe and Jack. Crazy mavericks, one and all ...

Great point she would not have gone if it was the viewers that decided. It would have been the Trifle Lady.
I think she would still have been in the bottom. You are forgetting that she was put in the secret room and could have gone a week earlier, so think yourself lucky she was there longer than she should have been! Plus don't forget she was very quiet after the secret room so did not have the amount of fans you thought she had otherwise she would have been in the top 4. She had no chance of winning and was always ways down the board on oddschecker and never a favourite to win!

I think this forum is a much happier place now she's gone so all is good!

There is no chance Cherrie and Bobby would have had more votes. Farrah was 4th or 5th in every poll and I am sure you were well aware of that. I am sorry but the rest of your post is not even worth commenting on it so ridicules imo.
