Feels like I haven't ranked them in ages:

1. BB5
2. BB7
3. BB3
4. BB9
5. BB14
6. BB6
7. BB1
8. BB13
9. BB10
10. BB2
11. BB16
12. BB8
13. BB12
14. BB11
15. BB4
16. BB15

There's something about 5 that just really hit the spot for me. I find it hard to pick a fault. It was the first one to go a little twist-crazy but the selection of housemates really made the most of them.

I've never been a massive BB7 fan. It's my 6th favourite.

BB5, BB3, BB6, BB14, BB9 and then BB7 for me followed by BB2.

Channel 4 -

For me, BB7 was the best series on Channel 4, and also overall. The show was at its absolute best, and the house was IMO a nicer house than the series before, which became draining after a while with the constant arguing. Housemates like Nikki, Aisleyne and Grace made fantastic viewing, and we had some great tasks, etc...

Channel 5 -

BB14 was absolutely fantastic and by far the best Channel 5 series. We had some right characters! Again, Gina, Hazel, Sallie, etc... Gave us some great moments!

BB1 - the original and best back when it was actually a social experiment and not just fame hungry idiots
BB1 for me too, although I do think that Nick was a fame-hungry idiot, but let's face it, if he hadn't done what he did and told the lies that he did, the show wouldn't have become what it did, so thank you Nick!

I am aware who you are talking about and have to say liked him in the show. Now I can't hear his name without shuddering, which is rather wrong as it hasn't been proven in court as yet.
With a certain massive scandal hitting the mainstream press since 2012 and subsequently some follow-up scandals, there's little doubt in my mind personally. He was amusing on the show but with a bit of a child-like personality, and I remember one comment he made to Craig about Anthony and at the time I thought it was a bit "off" and then recalled it once I read about the allegations.

BB2 followed by BB1.
I'd go with that followed by bb3 - bb4 fell flat and bb5 was the start of the more aggressive, more conflict style we have today and BB has gone out of it's way to make the show more and more about conflict with every year that has passed since.

Went for 7

5 & 3 just behind
9 also had a lot going on, would have that in 4th

Then
6


1 was good at the time but maybe not great on reflection
2 was decent
4 had the fantastic Tickle, that was about it, Cameron was ok too
8 had a few moments
10 is probably after my top 5 above
11 was awful apart from having the fantastic Ben in it
12 was dull but did really like Aaron
13 yuck, it had that 'thing' in it grrrrrrrrr
14 a bit hit and miss
15 it never happened, as far as I'm concerned there was no 15
16 jeesh what a bloody mess that was

BB7 was the first series where I watched every episode and didn't dip in and out like I had for other series. Some fantastic housemates/characters that year, very memorable and I actually felt really sad at the end when they had sound of some of the best one liners of the show being played over the footage of the house rooms empty and then a final overhead shot of the lights all slowly going off and everything in darkness. That, for me, is when BB hit its peak.

For me it was BB2.

For me Brian and Narinder were a great friendsip. Helen and Paul falling in love was cute (even if she did have a boyfriend). Bubble thinking he was going to win. Crazy Penny.

It just felt like an innocent show then.

BB7 for the drama and encompassing everything that BB is about. It also had another bunch of great people in it.

Great people?

The majority of them were bullies, what's great about that? I think even the frowned upon BB8 was much better with likeable housemates like Brian Bello and Jonte.
