...that would make the BB on channel 5 better?

I don't really have much complaints about BB on 5, think they've done a v.decent job, but the one thing i'd like to bring back, and i know it's a pretty obvious one, but the live feed!

Anyone else? What would you bring back from BB on 4 which would improve the current BB?

[Amy Jade]

I think C4 picked much better housemates.

[Dionkan]

No twists every night, and no favouring of contestants like Lauren

[Chuck]

Sounds silly I know but I miss the housemates (especially celebrities) arriving in limousines. Remember BB9 where there was a crowd behind them?

[Chuck]

omgz actually it wasn't a limousine, (although it looked like one ) anyway you get what I mean.

[Tregard]

No pre-entry interview, Big Brother doing the countdown, a slighty more subdued Marcus, better house design and the Eatock Eye

[Marsh.]

BBLB, tone down the sets (although C4 BB was overdone by the end), better housemates.

[Withano]

Their lack of nomination twists and Davina talking to the house in a quiet studio

[zakman440]

The editing, eviction studio/outdoor setting, live feed.

[Pincho Paxton]

The show needs to evolve beyond what Channel 4 was. I would like to see something like Narnia, or Alice In Wonderland. With special stage sets, sliding panels, and special costumes.

1) Absolutely zero outside contact and preferably no crowd noise entering the house on eviction nights, like BB10.

2) Highlight shows with no emotional music/slow-mo scenes/previously spoon feeding etc.

3) C4 Marcus.

4) Housemates that haven't been on other shows before or know/related to celebrities or already know one another or twins/husbands and wives (before BB8).

5) As mentioned a few weeks ago by someone on here, the monotone voice when a housemate is evicted.

6) Arriving in the cars/vans, walking through the crowd (with a nurse outfit/witch outfit/suit/casual whatever they like) and allowed to pose/dance/quick handshake with the crowd whatever they choose, as little or as much as they like, before entering the house with no interview from the host.

7) Surprise eviction just before the final, Stuart BB5/Craig BB6/Kat & Mo BB9

8) The not so fancy but unique houses, like BB5, BB6, BB9 and BB10.

9) Nominations uncut and diary room uncut shows.

10) Day after the final, the final day highlights show with the various echo voice housemate quotes after the winner has walked out. The echo voice did make a return in BB14, but wasn't quite right.

11) Housemates reuinion sunday show, live from the house.

12) What the housemates did next show.


I won't waffle on with more, because I've accepted that it will never be like that again.

Good HM's, HM's that haven't already been on TV or had some kind of media career already, HM's who don't have agents, fairness for all HM's on the BB sister shows, decent presenters (Russell Brand aside) the highlights shows not doing stupid recaps from the day before which we don't need seeing as we don't have the memory of goldfish, Marcus Bentley just narrating the show in a straight manner and not trying to be funny....and what I miss most of all, proper celebrities in the CBB version.

These especially

The pre-final eviction wouldn't be a surprise anymore though.

...I think mainly the variation in housemates..although Channel 5 have chosen people who conflict and to some extent that's good, if that's all you get and nothing more then I think it'll have a short lifespan and burn out pretty quickly..for me they need to balance it with people of more depth and not just try to put in characters they think are controversial...
