Since the very start! I've also watched Teen BB & Hijack BB.
I haven't however watched the final of this one, just the thought of that idiot winning has turned my stomach. I also didn't watch when the odious Wood won either, & I didn't watch the last BB (which she was on), along with Nikki & Belo! and this year i watched my first overseas BB in full ( Canada ). |

Brian Dowling is my favourite housemate of all time. He wouldn't even make the final if he was on channel 5 now

How does the Dutch one compare? I've never seen any of the other BBs.
Actually, tell a lie, watched a US series years ago but didn't like it. Ours was still trying to do a good impression of reality show and I found it too 'gameshow' so it didn't do it for me. Big Brother 3 : The Battle was very similar our BB3's Rich and Poor Divide but with a Head of House Big Brother 4 had a similar theme to Big Brother 3 with the rich and poor divide but was slightly more competitive (think our BB9 when the divide went up) Big Brother NL was cancelled due to low ratings but made a return in 2005 with Secrecy as the theme - housemates entered with a secret that they weren't allowed to reveal, and they were set secret missions to cause friction. Big Brother 6 was a friends and family theme - all the housemates had a partner/friend with them - similar to Marco and Lisa, Sam and Amanda and Charlie and Jackie. I didn't watch that one fully - lost interest lol ![]() Big Brother NL was axed after Big Brother 6 |

I watched the panto and hijack. Teen is the only one I gave up on half way through. Too much emphasis on the 'first to have sex' for my liking. If only we had known this was to become the norm.

Initially Big Brother 1 and Big Brother 2 were very similar to our BB1 and BB2 - basic and just watching the dynamics unfold

"The show is all about human interactions. It's people who are, loving each other, hating each other. They fight, they cry, they laugh -- all emotions, we'll see in the house."
It still is that, despite the increased manipulation by the producers. |

None of those options. I think since around BB7.
I was too young to watch the earlier series.

![]() 16 years is a long time but it looks very dated now it looks more like 1986 ![]() It was tiny compared to now - on a compound in Bow, and I remember Davina's 'I'm Coming to Get You' was literal cos she used to go over the little bridge to the house to get the evictee. Memories eh? Wonder what Wonkey would have made of this series?

I watched the first three series and loved them. This years civilian BB is the only one I have watched on Channel 5. I have seen most of the celebrity versions though.

This show has been a big part of my life since I was 13, I was gutted when I saw the scripted video, I never wanted to admit to myself that that is how it's going now, I'm probably one of the very few old timers who wanted bear to win though
![]() I voted for Helen Wood though so what do I know

![]() The paper mache heads I can still visualize now and the date nights were legendary. Can you imagine people like Dean and Josh doing the car crash that is BB these days? Far, far too normal and genuine |

I have watched every civilian and celeb series since the very first episode of BB1. I much preferred how it was in the early days to what it has become. It's pretty trashy now.
I also love BBAU, I really hope they bring it back. |

Watched all the UK series, BB and CBB, since 2003. Also watched all the Australian series, all the USA and all BB Canada. My first experience of BB was BB South Africa - broadcast to many countries in Africa. The live feed was excellent - you really got to know the housemates.
This year I stopped watching 10 days into the series, and am surprised I lasted that long! Abysmal. So sad that anyone would consider Bear anywhere near ''Entertaining''. |

There isn't the option of too long, so thee 1st wonder covers it. Wiĺĺ never vote again now and may not watch it with as much enthusiasm as before. It's not the same now with all the reality non entities and the unacceptable behaviour with lip service punishments.
