Only a fun twist. Nothing that ends up with someone being nominated/evicted.

I’d like to see Emily Parr come in as a late entrant .

I feel like they shouldn't need a twist so early on, save it for when everyone has settled in.

I feel they will as they will think that’s what people want to see. Aslong as it doesn’t interfere too much with anything I wouldn’t mind it.

Launch night twist would be interesting seeing that it isn’t being broadcast live. Ruins the tension and apprehension.

can't see them introducing a twist on opening day of a brand new series. Thats more likely to annoy viewers

It would make for extra headlines and more exposure


Emily Parr would make the front pages

I hope not it seems way too soon, especially if it interferes with the housemates a lot just as they're trying to settle in.

It's kind of thing Channel 5 used to do.

The amount of times Emma would promise "a twist to rock the house" - do me a favour. C4's launch night twists often flopped too.

Let them settle in over the weekend, and start tasks or twists on Monday.

Well we never got to know her .. she’d be an intriguing late addition.. it would make headlines and gain attention to the program

The melodrama of the channel 5 twist build up had me cringing - so hopefully nothing like that.

Save it for the live eviction shows. Twists are so much better when the cameras cut to the house/diary room and the housemates know it's going out live.

I don't think so - they need to play this series as straight forward as possible and reintroduce the core format, especially as C5 had so little regard for it.

The only "twists" I'd like to see on launch night is the revelation to viewers (not housemates) of any new format points - perhaps something to justify them sending in 16 HMs for a 6 weeks series when 10-12 would have sufficed.

ITV spending their budget on marketing and so giving us primary school disco games for the launch show

Hope there was money to afford the rights to Padam Padam

I don't want twists, I just want them to let nominations play out naturally each week.

I do think sadly there will be quite a few twists and I think that’s down to people’s attention span. Reality TV has evolved and gone are the days where viewers will happily stick with a 10-13 week series out of pure interest in the housemates and the whole process of BB.
