The live feed could be used to torture foreign spies.

BBLB is so lame you have to put the telly on a wheelchair to watch it.

BBBM is faked out. The audience are a bunch of Endemol stooges who wear different clothes and sit in different places each show to pretend it’s a real audience, and the phone calls and displayed texts are 100% fake.

The highlights shows are cack on a stick.

The whole thing is complete garbage.

There's an off switch you know! Play a game or something, take your mind off it. You don't have to watch it if you don't like it.

Pete's had a bad couple of days, and Nikki is just emotionally drained now. They're the spirit of the house, so it's unsurprising that a show that featured so little of them was as dull as it was, and the live feed has just been depressing today.

Ashtray has gobbled down pieces of chocolate and gone straight back to bed (so early) - i hope she get's indigestion !!

I thought tonight's highlights show was interesting and fun to watch. Some of us more cultured viewers enjoy studying the simple human interaction and find too much bitching tedious. :yawn: I'm so glad Grace has gone.

Agree with you 150%.

Yes there is an off switch, but I watch in the hope that it will get better. I should learn from BB4 really. I watched that all the way through, and it didn't improve. I went halfway to switching off tonight. I listened to the Artic Monkey's and watched BB with the sound off. It was a big improvement.

Very good post. It's definitely more fun watching them bond and interact, there was even room in the highlights for some fun! Heaven forbid there was that little bitching now that Grace has gone that they were able to show the HM's enjoying themselves!

Good call, voting public. As Pete said, "it's fresh, innit?".

I think those of us who loved the first 3 Big Brother series can appreciate shows like this more.

It's been dull since Sunday. I wonder if it's anything to do with Grace being evicted?

Indeed. I miss the innocence and charm of BB1, this in-your-face-bitch-'n'-plastic-fest just isn't quite the same.

The bitchin' has reduced signicantly now though (Again, thank you to the voting public for saving BB in my eyes by getting Grace out), so maybe we'll finally get some proper Big Brother?

No we can't. This was a cross between BB2 and BB3. its now turned into BB4.

The problem is that Nikki and Pete and Glyn can't match Helen and Brian and Dean and Elizabeth let Brian flourish wheras Richard and the oldies are trying to smother Nikki, Pete and Glyn . This is longer too and the probable winners would have looked thin in a show of BB2 length.
The BB2 aspect therefore ends up weak.

The point about Bb3 was that the house divide continued from week 1 till the end. The divide in Bb7 has been closed by destroying one team and fixing the removal of its leader. The major drama is over.

It looks as if they will try and keep the sinking ship afloat by having another go at the divide from Bb3 - but that only works if you have characters who react to the story - Imogen and Glyn are not Kate and Jonny on the poor side or Emma and Michelle in the bedsit - you need characters they don't have. It also looks as if we may get the Bb4 fallback of the swap to fill another few shows.

Failing that we will get a lot of BB producers posting here telling us how wonderful it is and how we are seeing new aspects of Suzie's character and how Glyn can now cook porridge.

Ultimately, I suspect they will have to resort to the Tickle solution and put a big character back in to liven it up - Grace with a jug of water would do it ....or Shahbaz's brother turning up in the bedroom at 4AM.

Totally agree. The constant bitchfest was getting boooooring! Much more fun seeing them having fun. I thought Aisleyne and Leah in the diary room (the 'I want cock' clip) was hilarious, and Glynn an Pete by the pool was quite touching. Now that poutface has left, they can all relax a bit and reveal themselves. If only Lisa would just find the exit....

And Glyn carrying Aisleyne around playing "penny a smack" was great viewing

I loved Glyn's direct-ness regarding Pete's tourettes. I bet Pete wished more people would be like that instead of beating around the bush.

take another look glyn asked 2 or 3 quick questions then within 1 minuite went back to talking about himself..petes hand to his face was enough to tell you the story.

Yes, Glyn quickly moved on but I think that's just how his mind works. Constant rambling thoughts that verge on the edge of incoherence. A lot like me in that respect.

Pete looked like he was actually more annoyed with the "I stand up against bullying, I do!" bit.

I completely agree - BBLB. I didn't notice that at the time but I get it now.

And he's not exactly a saint in the bullying department.
