Not a big fan of the voice yet, they sound like they're narrating a children's book.

Miss the personality, my bf is a tv producer who knew a voice of bb in c5 days and it was personal. Worried they won’t feel comfortable speaking to a robot

I can't remember in which thread but apparently the producers were taking a cue from the BB Australia reboot, which had the robot voice.

Tbh I can see the thinking behind it, with the consistent voice, and with BB as the autonomous ruler, and we never see the person behind the curtain.

I don't like that BB has been given a friendly personality. He should be an entity; formal, authoritative and cold.

Big Brother in Australia sounded like Satan himself in series 4-6.

I loved early BBAUS voice. I’m wondering if this will be consistent through the whole series. The voice changer system they’re using isn’t good. Hopefully someone at Endemol utilises these boards for input when they’re deciding on future changes.

They should turn the pitch down a couple of notches, and raise the bass.
