Me too, I've never had any desire to watch CBB.

BB7 is pretty good IMO, definately better than BB6 thought not up to the heydays of 2 and 5!

Couldn't agree more.

yep and thats why this seems to dire celeb BB this year was the best since BB5.
and youre right having people in the house who have already done dry runs is totally missing the point of why the show was made.
i would be more than happy for a celeb BB to take over cos lets face it 90% of them in there atm have been involved in some type of media work.
Lea and her tony
Nikki and god only knows what
glyn with BBC cymru it just reeks of a cynical clinical version of BB

First... Davina is a useless interviewer. She needs to go. She is a only a tradition after all.

Going for laughs (and not the divide) has to be the way to go with the future of BB. It used to be fun.

I am 100% in agreement with this post.

But... Will anyone listen? Endemol will just try harder to contrive a way to get more money from confrontation. This, they imagine, is the only way to get us to vote. Hate people. It makes money pour in.

See, I remember watching CBB4 and laughing until I was crying - especially when Pete and Michael got started on one of their late night chats. Even on BB5 I remember there was a lot of humour on 'fight night' before it all kicked off.

We need more fun. Last year I finally turned off because it was just people shouting at each other and, while this year is a lot better, we still need a bit of fun.

theres more going on with davina than this,
i personally think since her total failure on BBC its left her knocked for 6.
remeber it was a SECOND flop she done that baby programme that totally bombed also i dont care how confident someone is on the outside 1 failure is bad enough 2 get worried very worried.
as was said if youre going to put hm's in there who have already done dry runs then basically they HAVE changed the format of the show,these are not joe public str8 off the street into a house.
so why havent they changed the entire format of the show?
because they have made this what they wanted its a freak show and we all know it.
lisa really looked and acted mentally unwell in there tonight,you look at her week1-2 and its like a totally different person.
after fight night in BB5 they assumed to keep getting better ratings they must create loads of agro and bitching but they forgot about the funnier side,the people going wild running naked around the pool.most of us know people who do nothing but bitch and we know how boring it gets.
im affraid to admit it but this BB im now writing off,nd hope both Davina,dermot and the entire production team realise you cant rely on peoples love of the show to keep the stuff youre comfy with and change for the worse youre not.

Can someone tell me what exactly a dry run is pls? I'm ignorant

Celebrity BB has and always will be crap. The last one was pure trash. If it wasn't for that show then we wouldn't have to see Chantelle's rough face on every magazine cover.

This years BB was lame at first but is slowly getting better. Still over two months to go...

When they build a new house everything has to be tested to make sure it works.

The best way to do this is to have people living in the BB house for a week or so before the TV show starts.

This is called a dry run.

The problem is most of the housemates in the BB house this year have been on previous dry runs in the past. This is causing problems for people trying to view them as regular guys off the street who got lucky at this year's auditiions.

BB7 is just tooooooo long anyway....... :sleep:

It's taken 2 years but somebody agrees with me

I really like bb7 but i prefered celeb bb this year.
And i didnt actually know many of the celebs on cbb so i don't think i liked it purely because i knew all the housemates.
Also the bitches on cbb were a lot better then than the ones on this show. Pete Burns was actually funny at bitching Grace and co bring/brought no comedy at all

It normally takes me a few weeks to get into bb but with cbb this year and last year i was hooked almost straight away.
