Default BB5, BB6, or BB7?

These 3 seasons tend to get the best reception so I want you to pick which one you love most. Ranking all 3 is also optional

6 > 5 > 7 indeed

All great but 7 had far too many housemates that were either pointless or nasty without an entertaining side to them. Shouldn't have bothered with the HND (even though the drama was good), because Jayne got Nikki evicted, Jonathan/Michael/Spiral were useless, and Jennie was nice but no one would've missed her.

6>5>>>7

7 is decent, but 6 and 5 are the best two seasons ever. The added length of 7 brings it down a bit, but it's more that I just massively prefer the casts of 5 and 6.

Wow, maybe it's just my 8 year old mind talking and it being my first season, but I remember BB7 being really talked about in Ireland

I'd watched every year up to that one and I did turn it on but they all really annoyed me so i just stopped watching after one or two episodes, I missed it then so I watched BB8 and that was crap so I had decided to completely give up on BB after that so i never watched BB9. Then a girl I knew from school asked me on FB if i was watching BB10 and I said no and she convinced me to because a friend of hers was going in........who happened to be Lisa

For me all three are must watch BB's and the peak of BB UK for me, when the show was at it's most popular nationwide. After that it sadly lost its way.

I think BB5 and BB7 have the more classic moments but BB6 is more the interesting to rewatch for me, I think BB7 is ruined cause you knew who was winning it from day one and it lost it's way in the last few weeks with twists and new housemates been thrown in but it's got a amazing first few weeks. BB5 could have pipped BB6 but for it's last week which when it lost most of it's best characters and we were stuck with some of more boring HM's imo.

I give BB6 the nod over both cause it's the one that's aged better then the other two. I loved the nastier feel to it, you didn't have a real rootable character to cheer on which was nice for a change (Eugene was the closet but he came in half way). I loved the bitchness, also it had one of the great end to the bullies BB ever had in Maxwell and Saskia downfall. The whole Makosi downfall was interesting TV. Craig and Anthony thing was wince inducing but darkly funny (that's one of the reasons I think Anthony won cause the way he didn't go off on Craig like many would have). I think nearly everyone in the house was top notch aside from Vanessa who had one of the best Audition tapes but went on to be one of the most boring housemates.

It did have some uncomfortable stuff like the Sam bullying stuff, although I don't think she was overly innocent in it all. Also it did start the Glamour model using BB to get attention route (Orlaith) which I think ruined BB. Also it had one of the worse winners the show had on it's Channel 4 run. But I still think it's the best BB ever.

I think that was BB7's downfall that it went on and on. I watched it from Day one and felt it lost it's way when Nikki left. Also it was the start of throwing far too many new housemates in and that stupid twist about voting in an already voted out housemate. I think that ruined BB. Also known that Pete was uncatchable as the winner from day one took the joy of who was winning out of it.

But it did have one of the best Evictions in Sezer. Some great housemates in. One of most overrated (Aisleyne). But it's first few weeks were top notch.

The lack of BB5 votes is disgraceful even if I'd only put it second to 6 now

Only watched 6 and 7 however 7 is a very poor series. A bad selection of housemates (Nikki,Pete etc). Bullying on the first week with no BB intervention. BB6 wins
