I think it is dreadful. There is not even a pretence that housemates spend 24/7 in the house, they disappear for days at a time into private rooms, on outings, for a chat with the producers etc - and anyone with a bit of humour and any joy in life has feigned a sore throat and left. The remaining house mates know that the main event is long since over, are bored to tears, just waiting their time out as if in a prison. Even the set is oppressive. Nobody is ever going to say - 'wow what an amazing experience, I had the time of my life'. The tasks are dull and none of the housemates take them seriously.
It is awful
