If you were in charge of the BB4 what would you change about the previous series to make it better?

Not any more! JACK's here ! Hoorah!

Right, what would I change? simple: I'd remove them feckin bars.
A divide is GOOD, but it needed be PHYSICAL, it could be economical (in terms of treats, and makiing the poor people wear horrible boiler suites etc). But by allowing them to have physical proximity, you'd really allow the sparks to fly. imagine what the post-dart-task situation would have been if there'd been no bars! Wicked !

So Jack says: down with the bars

Oh sorry, I misread the question: ignore my answer.
As for BB4? Wouldn't make one. Simple as.

It's become too formulaic and well known.

id have to say id give them way more tasks and raise the prize money. the hms seem to be bored out their minds with only 1 task a week and maybe a 30min mini task. Also the prize money seems to be nothing compared to other countries. And this is not worth 9 weeks of boredom and misery for. BB have planned the series totally badly this year. GIVE THEM MORE TASKS!

I don't think more tasks would make it interesting per se: howver, big tasks that really tested them, like making a bridge or a crane, would be interesting. I love watching the shows where they try to recreate ancient structures etc, people really get quite emotional.

Yes, that would be good. So they definitely WONT do it!

what would i change? first, i'd change the selection process. at the moment they (the producers) seem to be contriving sexual encounters and/or physical nastiness. picking people who will, in thier opinion, do a bit of those rating boosting activities of shagging and/or fighting. what they have got is big personality people steering clear of potential problems (except, maybe, for alex doesn't seem capable of either)... they should just randomise the selection process and just get some ordinary nutters in there.

and give them something to do for f***s sake! at the moment they are all zoned out on boredom! books, magazines, tv, stuff to keep the brain ticking over is a must. and some opportunity to exercise. healthy people are happy people and happy people talk and do stuff. at the moment they are acting like depressed prisoners (i stopped watching yesterday, it is too depressing).

i think the big thing that should be recouped in BB4 is novelty. BB3 is tired, been there, seen that - both for viewers and housemates. i think that they should have a more interesting environment that has challeges built into it (e.g. a remote castle where if they want a shower they need to build a shower - that kind of thing)...

hmmm

HA! So true

well, I would
1. choose a load of interesting people
2.Throw in a celeb along the way
3.More tasks
4.No Bars
5. Lock the housemates in the chicken coop at night (might have to be expanded a bit) and let the chickens sleep in the beds....j/k!
6.Superglue (give it to just one housemate and tell them to keep it secret!) people would find stuff stuck everywhere


Dunno what else. You have to realise that I have a somewhat limited and warped imagination. Bare with me

Most of those ideas I like, but BB doesn't need a prize of £1mil, it really doesn't.

I'd like to see an 'immunity' type challenge. Give them a task where the housemate who wins could be given a chance to stop themselves being nominated for one week, provided they agree to lose their own nomination privileges for a week.

I would increase the prize money to £1million. I would then introduce immunity tasks, with the winner exempt from being nominated but can still nominate fellow homesmates.

These, I feel, would make Big Brother more of a competition and may tempt housemates against leaving on their own accord.

What do others think of my suggestion?

I've made this post before but what I would do if I was in charge would be to cynically plant jobbing actors as housemates. That way you could just stage manage incidents such as fights and romances between housemates. I would have one actor "doing a Sandy" and then vanishing without trace so that the Sun had a campaign to find him. Another one would confess to murder whilst inside. There would be a sceance where all the lights went out and someone disappeared etc.

You could just make it up as you went along.

i dunno why they cant make any of these changes NOW!

Increase the prize money, but dont tell the contestents.

Remove the bars wen they r asleep

dont tell them if their nominations are void. (they shuldn't hav told jade)

Drain pool for bad behaviour.

Punish them as a group

i culd go on and on

Yep this is good. It worked well on Survivor and was a real powerful strategic element too ... go get a strawberry for that one

That would be sooo good and really keep them on their toes while making terrific viewing!

They should start now. They could have a housemate that only one person ever sees, he could travel through the camera runs to different parts of the house and just appear and disappear.
