Will last night's LF events stop you watching future series?
Hamish Mancini

I tend to dip in and out of BB series so I either watch the whole thing or none of it at all - I'm not that invested emotionally in the show but I do think it's a shame if it has become 'just another scripted reality show'.

Has this substandard series (or the 'acting' re-takes exposed last night) put you off watching in future?

Will you continue to watch but not vote again?

Or are you not really bothered?

I haven't voted for a while and I'm only looking at this forum as I just want to know the result.

The series has been a nightmare. I can hardly believe that CBB was once a charity fundraiser, and I used to watch BB and CBB with my kids and we'd laugh at it! Now I just want to cry. Or be sick.

I won't watch it again.

BB is not scripted, however, every since the beginning, even on channel 4, they have always filmed a small segment for the final night. If it was scripted as a lot of people think, they would not of shown that bit on live last night, unless it was a mistake of course, but I doubt it.
If you ask anyone from past BB's they would say the same, especially about the final night when they like to have the last night footage shown, basically the goodnight housemate part.

Probably, I won't watch any more of the trash that comes from reality. I didn't watch the civilian one this year from Marco's VT, and have only watched about half of this one, and I wouldn't vote.

Sad that there is no longer any point to hoping it will get better, this scripted and fixed show with that moron cast in the lead roll has killed it.

Absolutely not!! Will watch it until I'm old and grey, baby... old and grey.

No, I won't be watching anymore, slowing been giving up since it switched to Channel 5 anyway. I didn't watch the civilian series this year and switched off CBB once The Olympics started because of Bear and his Squad. Nail in the coffin for me.

I will always have the brilliant memories of the programme when it was in it's early days on Channel 4 though.

I'll be watching but never voting ever again.

Going by ex hms it's a rare occurrence and I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

It was obvious that sort of thing has been going on and what you see is not really a true account of what is happening.
Every series, I watch to see if anyone is going to finally rescue the programme, and if not it gets relegated to the "rubbish, but if there is nothing else on, i will see what is happening" category. Briefly.
BOTS or SOTS is dead to me and BB itself has just about reached the unwatchable level.
It really is an insult to ones intelligence at the moment.

At the moment I think I'm done with bb. I've watched from the start and it's been a big deal for me every year. However or, I've hated it this year. The civilian series was rubbish. Not one housemate who would have made it through the old audition process. The didn't have a personality between them. It was too contrived with exes, boyfriends, engagements which conveniently ended as soon as the show was over. It was awful.

This series has been pathetic for a celeb version although I have grown to love some of the housemates. After last night's revelations I can now see that we've been duped. It's not what it's advertised as. The producers have concealed so much from the viewers who they are relying onto vote. I do feel we have been lied to by everyone connected with this show.

So, I don't watch scripted reality crap like Rosie and the rest and I don't intend to start watching it. After tonight, which I'm only watching in the hope that bear will get his comeuppance and someone else will walk out the winner, I can't see me watching this again. It's been a pleasure in the past but there's been absolutely nothing enjoyable in watching this manipulation.

Whilst i certainly agree that the show has become manipulated over the years, surely anyone can see this is merely Big Brother filming a cute *final night goodnight* segment that looks nice during tonights final?

It was a bit daft them showing it during live feed of 5* but i cant believe the overreaction by some on Twitter. Ill still keep watching. Havent voted for years so that wont change.

I haven't voted for years and that won't be changing. I dip in and out and often don't finish a series, haven't watched a full civillian series since Bb14, and that won't be changing either.

I have to say though, I don't think last night was as big of a deal as some have made out. It seems to have fuelled some "it's all scripted" conspiracies.

Yes. It really doesn't help that this series has been the most boring and the nastiest in recent memory.

I'm the type of person who tends to trust what he sees with his own eyes, and no amount of back peddling, or tales from ex HMs of what it was like when they were in it, will change what I think about this sham of a show. How people can spend money on voting is just insane.

I haven't voted as I've been sceptical for awhile. Now I know it's fixed? Nope, just like I don't watch EOTB, GS or any other puerile scripted crap.

I can't believe anyone would call this series boring

There's been more drama and action per episode than any series I can recall ... Only been one "tasks"-based filler episode so far ... Huge achievement, and in the headlines every day

Great series ... Didn't expect to still be watching BB after all these years, but they've kept raising the bar as far as entertainment goes

I think it is just them filming the final night segment

They do that every year .. Waltons-style tucking each other into bed ... Otherwise it would just be one of those nights when everyone goes to bed at different times, and there'd be no "sleep well" bit from BB
