BIG BROTHER PRODUCERS - an open letter regarding BB7
6 of 6
i have another idea involving the layout of the house - i know that many people hate the two house format, but just say that there were two houses (if only it was for 2 weeks then they rejoin) well my idea involves there being a holding room - obviosly the contestants order into the house will have to be chosen at random, the first housemate will go through the process then into the house and the holding room he/she will have to wait a few minutes until housemate number 2 repeats the process they meet in the holding room and there are two doors each with it's own label/word (as i was thinking about the whole BB7 deadly sins concept i'm going for a green door saying ENVY and a red door saying GLUTTONY, then the eye could be green and red etc.) anyway the two housemates have to decide between them which door they want to go through causing immediate confilct then as this process is repeated with the other twelve u will end up with 7 housemates in each house (ENVY being the small house as they jealous of the big house and the GLUTTONY house being big as they greed etc. lol)
another concept could be that have the same two doors but only one house and the contestant going through ENVY end up outside and are evicted LOL that would cause immediate attention and would really get the public and viewers shouting at the telly as the person going through the ENVY door could be really funny/exciting etc. (obviously you will have to have double the amount of contestants as only half would become housemates) then the housemates in GLUTTONY would beleive that there is a second house throughout there stay. Also to involve the public, the public could then choose 4 of the 14 who didn't make it to become a housemate.
any comments/critiscism??

No, just give us a mix of interesting characters. Don't exlude anyone merely because they are:
A wannabe
A diva
Camp
Young
Very attractive
A chav

Please change the voting and eviction process
instead of nominating two people to leave, how about one vote to leave and a vote to stay so whenits all added up there maybe more than the usual two nominations
It would help stop the voting out of the most lively person in the first week or so which usually happens
a double version would be good with the two houses not knowing about each other at all from the beginning but their task winnings are given to the alternative house. If a housemate gets a penalty it goes to the other side if they win food it goes to the other side. If a person is up for eviction then a joker from a task can be played to save them and evict the opposite number!

Why not have HMs nominate as usual but put the 2 or more with the least noms up for the vote. Get the nominees paranoid about who could have voted for them (like Michelle with the Judas kiss).
how about just making it fun that would be a start regardless what the house is people are asking for to many gimmicks to be added how about just back to basics normal nominations normal tasks if they lose then theres the food budget gone its more fun to see people work for there keep rather then stupid games its gone off the format of fun for the family to see who can get the most campest gobby people in make it a family show again most people i know didnt watch it last year because the house mates were annoying get people who just want to have fun the rest will come if they get on from the start its more fun less of a click group thing happening give them more drink aswell its funnier when there drunk because peoples inhabitions drop after a few drinks also put some 1 in whos going to tell people that theres bitchy ness going on instead of keeping it to them selfs ive always said if i was in there i would tell people they were being talked about just because i cant stand high school gossiping it shows that the person whos being bitchy just cant get on with there life they have to pick at some1 elses
Sorry don't know if this has been mentioned but....
I think the housemates should be totally isolated until they physically leave. By this, I mean that they shouldn't be able to hear the crowd cheering or booing them on Fridays until they've actually gone out of the door. I think it's better when they've got no idea about how they're perceived outside.
Edit: I'd like more tasks that go on over several days, with different people working together. This should be assigned randomly as I think it would be a great way of shaking up groups that have formed. In some ways the rich/poor side did this in BB3. I'd also like the sat night live task back, with the sole aim of winning a sat night party. The longer ongoing tasks should be for the shopping.

BB4 was a cop out after Bb3. BB3 was largely self generating after they threw the divide in as a theme - the great moments are generated by the HM not tasks or BB - Jade has a Verucca, Jonny pees in the shower, Alex gets upset with Kate preferring Spencer, Kate has comic moments, Alex falls off sofas, Jade strips, PJ accidently has a BJ, Adele fancies 4 HM...... The problem was it was dangerous. Jade could easily have hit anyone of at least 5 people and Jonny's efforts to kill Kate with drink almost saw the winner whisked off to hospital. Sunita and Sandy walked and the show could easily have lost all 4 of its finalists walking at some point or other.
BB4 went for subtler tensions (Steph is jealous of Nush) les tension and calmer HM and the calmer Hm got rid of anyone less calm asap. It just went too far.
Whats happened since is that they went to the opposite extreme. BB5 and BB6 were scripted and manipulated but the HM were far more volatile and dangerous than they had been in BB3. The really odd thing though is the lack of choice of winners compared with BB3 . Nadia was obvious , Bb6 didn't have one at all. Its as if they either couldn't find any or they put some in who underperformed or they decided that putting one into a house of unpleasant people would be so obvious that they couldn't do it. anyway Bb5 and Bb6 are dead ends - you just have to go back to the days of having multiple potential winners and a theme that allows them to emerge.
No more screeming cross dressing queers please! Enough already!
and the Celeb BB's show that having older people in the house works - so have some forty somethings with attitude!
And some good looking men this year - I am sorry but Anthony Hutton??? Fat Chimp did not work last year as totty.
Maybe put a celebrity in who has to pretend they are not famous - there are plenty to choose from!

Horrible idea. leaves those who should have gone, distorts the plot and takes out the quieter people who made all the successful series work. The people who don't get nominated in Bb1-5 are the people who give the house enough stability to allow things to happen . With no likeable stable people in there you just get anarchy, failed tasks and never-ending rows like BB6. Think Anna, Mel, Elizabeth, Dean, Kate, Shell, Dan. Take any one of them out and BB1-3 and BB5 don't work - Mel and Anna are a team. and relate most to each other, Helen and Brian only stay because Dean and Elizabeth look after them and Brian only really interacts with those two. Shell and Dan looked after Nadia and Shell is crucial to the Victor and Michelle storylines. In BB3 you could have lost Kate which would have removed the removed all the major plotlines and unbalanced the whole show - apart from making the nominations battle entirely artificial. Its pretty stupid to lose your potential winners because they are popular whilst keeping the loonies the public hate anyway. In BB4 you could take several quieter people who made it to the final out because the house was full of stable people anyway, but BB4 is the exception.
