Thank you to everyone at DS for the last nine weeks. It's been so easy to forget why I go to work in the daytime, when all I do is look at the live updates and the forum. The forum has been so much fun and so well run (ooer, should be on the limerick thread almost).

What will I do now?

Thanks again,

Saph (AKA Big Knickers in the daylight hours)

I am going to cry soon. It is all so sad

Have left my email on the goody thread if anyone would like to keep in touch.

I have yours Cal cos I love you best x

Neil and the gang,

What can I say!!! Yet again your big brother coverage was superb, those people at Channel 4 should take note!!!

I have used each digitalspy big brother microsite, even the first when you were known as tv:uk!!! Memories!!! The site gets better and better each year!!!

Thank you all for your great efforts to keep us all informed!!!

I look forward to Celeb BB2 (guessing next march? - Comic Relief?) and the BB4 next year!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Any chance for a chat room next year? - On constantly all 64 days?

Thanks again!

Many thanks for this forum and the live updates.

Without them BB3 wouldn't have been half as much fun in fact I'm not sure I would still be watching now if it wasn't for DS:BB

Looking forward to next year (now where's that link to USBB3 )

A very BIG Thank You to all the staff who gave us this forum to say what we felt good+bad about this years BB3

Thanks to DSBB staff for their hard work and dedication (and for not having an upper age limit)

Yeah we have all had some good debates. Beth was a fantastic mod, Mr O was absolutely awful and should never ever have been a mod on this forum.

A big thank you from one happy forum member. I lost ITV digital E4 the day bb3 started, and you have been a god send.

God Bless you all, Thank You

Thank you to all at DS who have made Big Brother an even bigger event.

Thanks for the microsite, and the forum, it's been... um... interesting

Can I just say, though, that I think the forum would have been more successful had there been better planning in the beginning. More moderators could have been appointed sooner (if not before the show began, then as soon as it became obvious the site would be extremely busy) as there is no excuse for taking six weeks to do this. Moderation is tricky, I know, but there is a need to be fair, and some comments have either slipped through or been ignored when other people have been punished for saying identical things. More moderators could have helped this, and the moderators could have seemed to be showing less favouritism.

Hopefully those will be lessons learnt for next year.

Some of the comments in the last couple of days from reporters on the forum have also caused upset. They may not be posting in an official capacity, but it still says "DS reporter" in their details.

Anyway, that aside, it's been good... time to get back to semi-lurking around the rest of the forum.

Thank you DS Staff! The site has undoubtably been the best Big Brother site and I am very greatful for the info, gossip and everything else you have worked on and published over the past couple of months. The Live Update were great and for me who didn't have E4 until a few weeks ago, they were a necessity.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks alot,

James

I'd like to thank Neil for giving me the opportunity to report on BB in the first place, Beth Hart for putting up with my constant barrage of technical questions, Jason C for the late night chat, Angela for her general help and the whole of the DS:BB team for being so supportive and friendly.

I'd also like to say "Big up!" to everyone who has emailed me with regards to my 'Emzi' column. You've kept me amused and informed for the last 9 weeks and every email has been greatly appreciated. Cheers guys!

Hope you keep a copy of your columns, because they'll be very useful in showing potential employers your style of reporting. Hopefully, you'll go a long way in the world of journalism.

Well done.

Thanks everyone! this forum has been the icing on the cake for this years BB, I really hope it'll be this good next year although hopefully next year it won't be taken as seriously as some people have this year! #it's only a game show! it's only a gameshooooow!#

keep up the good work DS especially to the moderators you've done a great job in removing the scum from here

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!

Thanks to you All! Well done! Looking forward to next year.

Just to say thanks and well done for providing such an interesting and provocative forum : ).

So what now? Well, we'll be back with full coverage of the fourth series next year, as well as the second series of Celebrity Big Brother later this year (should it go ahead).

Celebrity Big Brother is going ahead and Dawn French is signed up. One one else at the moment.

Totally agree - this is by far the best site, makes Ch4 sites look Stone Age at best. First and most accurate with all news and updates - after the first few weeks I never bothered with any of the others sites at all. congratulations to all, shall be visiting throughout the year and look forward to BB4

Everyone's going to get me crying now. :'( ... oops, too late.

~ Beth (and bump )

It's not a bad site

*clap, clap*
