... for those of us who'd like to see Big Brother take a step back towards a 'back to basics' type show.

I wasn't a Chloe fan, and I was pretty underwhelmed by the final. But imagine what the producers are thinking right now, try and see this result through their eyes. After weeks of desperate tactics to keep 'controversial' contestants in the house, and putting in 'controversial' non contestants too. And their constant house rock-ing, explosive twists, designed purely to cause confrontation and fighting. In the end, the nice boring one who sat around not doing much won. I mean she didn't even have a bloody showmance! They're either scratching their heads wondering if the viewers are all on acid, or maybe they'll consider that their priorities need to change with regards to how they approach designing the show. I'm not saying we'll suddenly get a house full of Chloes, that would be terrible! But they have to be able to recognise that the public have gone completely against the wishes of the producers this year. If anything was ever going to push them into reconsidering their format, surely it would be someone like Chloe winning?

Good post !

No gameplan either ?

Suggests you can win by being yourself without having to act (and the majority were acting all over !)

I see it as the publc sick of the DULL gameplayers and fencesitters (i.e. just to keep in there)
And with little to vote for, choosing to go with the most nice / honest.

Course many will disagree about that and the £5K.
But don't see why building the winners prizefund is more important than being offered cold hard cash.
And wasn't like she stole it from the prizefund either.
Not that that's necessarily wrong either.....

We need another "freakshow" house tbh, like BB7 and BB10. People from all different areas with all different backgrounds and beliefs, contrasting personalities and unique talents. Not only does it make the show intriguing, it also makes the cast intriguing. They need to start stripping it back to a "social experiment" and see how people from all kinds of backgrounds react in a confined space; I'd really enjoy watching that develop.

It is a good thing, no 'probably' about it. But Sam winning BB14 led to one of the most fame-hungry casts we've ever seen, so...

Good stuff here.
I agree. Chloe was not seeking fame. Whatever her faults, she was there to make a better life for herself by winning some money. Unlike many of the others with agents looking to advance a modeling, acting, music, rapping, sexual services etc careers. Glad a more relatable, flawed person won.

i didnt mind Chloe but she was one of the fakest most hypocritical HG in this series

[just thinkin]

Who really wants to watch these showmances or eejits performomg like apes trying to rile up the house..if we wanted that we coild watch eastenders. There was plenty of footage of hilarious events that never vot shown till the final best bits....everyone in the house loved chloe...we should have seen more of this....I thouggt she was lovely from what I saw....the house was natural enough witg the originals but just wen they were showing their personalities and natural dislikes or likes of each other bb decide to throw four out who weren't even nominated and bring in a performing ape...not a hood move...wud have been better to let originals get on with it..we wud have had a better show. ....marc was ok for a week but he was a one trick pony and boring. No need for nikki graem or the others..they had their chance..it reeked of desperation. But im delighted chloe won.

[Slevin]

agree. Marc was alright at first but after bunker he was ****e. would of rather they just let the OG's get on with it. the 4 in/legends werent needed.

The mind boggles what next year's BB is gonna be like.

They've done everything they could possibly do to get away from the original format - least they didn't shoot dead the housemates instead of evicting them.

Maybe that's next year's theme...

Totally agree. The voters have clearly been trying to send a message to the producers this series by going against what they wanted from the show. I suppose we'll find out next year if they've listened and focus more on finding a great cast, and less on all the ridiculous twists

[REDCROP]

The show is doomed. ...esp if BB pander to those viewers who use the word Nice and the words Big Brother in the same sentence. ...how the hell did that ever happen ? Maybe they should stop calling them house mates and instead vote to save the best game player each week.

[y.winter]

What I was saying the whole series.
Crowning someone like helen or marc as the winner only encourage the production to go in the same path and even worse.
Entertainment can come in many shapes and forms, not only in the big bad wolf villain trend in the past 2 series (i.e. Marc and Helen, again).
It worked well in BB14 imo without the heavy nastiness - there was enough drama, conflicts and rivalries without the struggle of watching it day after day.
This year was so exhausting to watch and it is the last thing I wanted after BB15, I don't think any of us needed another cycle of this type.
