Less interaction with the outside world

[Kerry]

I'm getting sick of the increased levels of interaction the HM's have had with the outside world over the years. The whole point of the original show was NONE. Now we even have HM's leaving the bloody building FGS. Plus if someone walks out they stay out if you ask me. They get away with far too much. I guess it's not going to change. BB will be a right chickensh!t trying to keep them all in for the final show.....

[WOMBAI]

The whole premise of the show has changed since the first show! It was originally an experiment to see how a bunch of strangers would get on together in that confined situation! Now it is just a bitch fest and attention seeking drama! Full of nasty, superficial people!

I still enjoy it (mostly) but hate how it's totally changed from the original idea. We're supposed to be watching 12 strangers in an alien environment with everyday simple pleasures taken away and left to the bare bones to get on with it. Now everything is given in to from food to freedom. Even letting them back in when they escape

As the producers are going to want the show to go out with a bang this year - I dread to think what this year's bunch are going to be like! The absolute pits! Having said that - is does make for compelling viewing - as it is humerous to see how desperate some people are and to see what depths they will sink to!

I'm dreading this years being a farce and them trying too hard. The HM's and the producers

Ugh actually, Davinas going to be unbearable too.....

[BrooklynFan]

to be honest, when the show is only 7-9 weeks long, you can confine them without any interaction from the outside world. The US show is only 9 weeks long. but the shows are FOURTEEN FLIPPIN WEEKS LONG. do you know how crazy long that is to not see anyone but the people inside and not hear from anyone? any normal person would start losing their minds. Even people in prison get to have visitors. For the first 8 weeks, I say, no interaction with anyone outside - but all the cute perks theyve been doingn the past few years towards the end like messages from home, BB magazine, day trip outside, old housemates coming back in for a visit, are a boost that can help these cabin-feverish housemtes survive til the end. BBs1 and 2 were much shorter and the housemates didnt start losing their minds yet. Since BB is 13/14 weeks long, I think it's necessary to add a few treats towards the end to keep them from going insane.

Nah.. lets see them go INSANE!! :joker:

[King Gizzard]

I want them to know when there getting boo'd though, made my skin crawl when lisa thought she was the fan favourite

[MusicMan]

I hate it when they bring in housemates' relations or partners as new housemates, it totally ruins it for me.
It no longer becomes about the "strangers" that don't know each other
The whole Kenny thing with Karly, and the whole Isaac thing with Noirin just bugged the hell out of me
Stick with the strangers! :D

[biggestbrother]

A REALY back to basics BB would be good.
One or two BIG twisits, what don't involve ex-housemates or loads of new HM's.

[Rob]

no interaction with the outside world, like it used to be

[Patrick]

IMO no matter how many people go on about how Lisa and Davids stupid journey around London was 'the best part of BB10' Its still not.

It was boring.

And it defeated the entire purpose of what the show was about.

I have to disagree with what you said though about them having more and more contact with the outside world as each series goes on.

I dont think BB1-9 Had any contact with the outside world unless of course your talking about the new housemates.

BB10 did there annoying 'Aliens in London' stunt for ratings and IMO it was horrible and It didnt even feel like the same show.

I bet every BB11 Housemate watched BB10 And seen how much they got away with in that house.

Not Nominating, Breaking out into the camera runs, discussing nominations etc

And they will do the same.
Big Brother needs to show them that hes still incharge.

[Jordan.]

The only interaction should be on evictions when they can hear the crowd, really hope they keep it

This.

Samanda was horrible and tbh they could of had a good twist there if they spilt them two up.

Mario and Lisa was uncalled for.. but then again at least they didnt count as one HM unlike Samanda.

Rex and Nicole was intresting for a night then it ruined Rex's chances of winning and that.

Isaac and Noirin failed epicly and was just silly, he didnt stay in the house for more than a week unfortunatly, All we got was Siavash saying 'FFS' and that was that.

Karly and Kenneth had to be one of the most pointless 'twist' ever.


They better cut the 'Relationship Before BB' **** out for the last time.

[Patrick]

Oh yeah.
Bang on right.

[BrooklynFan]

Isaac ruined the series for me. I'd have loved to see Noirin and Siavash get more involved. Noirin wouldnt have gotten evicted that week. She totally isolated herslef from the group once Isaac came in. and Isaac wasnt interested in anyone but Noirin. I cant believe waht an idiotic move that was from big Brother. and I wish TOm wouldnt have walked; a love triangle woudlve been great!

[Kerry]

I don't mind them hearing the crowd to a degree. Get those paranoia bubbles flowing :D Nor do I mind letters from home so long as it's way into the series and thats all it is ONE LETTER. No videos. Just a simple note. That adds to the whole mood (good and bad and also interesting) but multiple new HM's, trips outside, relationships, games involving family/friends or staff, past HM's etc etc..... NO!!!!!!! How on earth is the 'outside world' not part of the house? All it is is a holiday camp now. They get food and parties on tap and are rarely deprived (CBB is a joke in that respect). Sod it, let them take books in and three suitcases each. Never ending goodies and a fecking telephone and have done......

It was brilliant.

Isaac was a legend, I wish he stayed in.

But I remember on here us Marcus fans are over the moon when Isaac went in because the Noirin Vs Marcus eviction was a very very close thing, I mean no one could predict who would go and the odds were changing every day but Isaac coming in completely sealed Noirins fate and if she stayed Marcus would of went and that would of been horrible.

[WOMBAI]

Watching the idiot brushing his hair about 10,000 times didn't do it for me! Shame he didn't go earlier than he did!

No contact.

One letter to each of the housemates when there is only like 2 weeks or something until the final.

Kapeesh!

[Jords]

Yepp I agree with you Jaye! Sure the London task was good fun but does go against the point of BB.

[bbfan1991]

Yes it just went against what the show is supposed to be about, lets hope BB have taken all the criticism on board and make this show one to remember if it's going to go out on a high:hugesmile:.

RE Evictions.. Kat was my favourite she said '' Big Brudda please don't take any of my fwends'', so smug she was going to make it to the final with her cronies as planned but of course people saw through her in the end and she went, loved the booing from the crowd was well deserved:devil:.

Kat was immature, lovely Lisa got the measure of her and Kat saw her as a threat still remember when her and her troops including sweet Rachel were plotting to nominate Lisa and Mario in B-Block for eviction but of course BB did nothing and this was left out of the HL show:rolleyes:.

I was gutted at the Lisa and Sara eviction:(, so close the vote was however I loved it when they won the 25 k just to see Kat, Darnell, Rex, Mo and Rachel's faces.

Sara kept nominating Rachel most weeks which made me:hugesmile:.

Oh yes.. isn't it nice when good things happen in revenge and little things seem oh that much sweeter.. oooooo yes oooooo yes baby. I got a craving. Sweeter baby sweeter!

[keithafc]

The whole BB10 bus tour thing with lisa and David completely ruined the whole concept of Big brother. They aren't supposed to leave the house. Its against the rules. BB breaking BB rules. Terrible..

[BBDodge]

Its against the rules. BB breaking BB rules. Terrible..

That rule "Big Brother can change the rules at any time" makes a mockery of the whole show.

Certain key principles need to be set in stone and contact with the outside world should be one of them. And that includes letters from home, which are used to provide sob stories to boost HMs popularity.

Since BB is 13/14 weeks long, I think it's necessary to add a few treats towards the end to keep them from going insane.

a fair point of view but i would like them to go out of this world insane it would be brilliant

did that really happen:shocked:

[Niamh.]

I agree, they should bring back to basic I think, no contact with the outside world, if you refuse to nominate you're evicted and no ex or current b/fs/g/fs

[bbfan1991]

did that really happen:shocked:

Yeah it happened on the LF but BB turned a blind eye to it:mad:, was the week Mario and Bex were up for eviction I think. Kat knew she had to get rid of Lisa because she saw her true colours;).

[Beastie]

This well if you refuse to nominate then you are up for eviction. 2nd time you do it.. you should be ejected from the house.

[Niamh.]

I'd take the harder line because after last year HMs will think they can do whatever they want. I'd say nominate now or leave the house throught the other door right now and I'd I mean it too

Ooo harsh.. I would think put them up straight for eviction.. but ahh maybe your right. No pussy footing. Maybe this is what BB means by the stay or go theme.

[Jack_]

The most contact they should allow is:

- One letter from the outside world [but they have to work for it]
- Hearing the crowd on eviction nights

That's it. Anymore and the basic premise of the show is gone.

It'd be good if they cut all contact with BB for one day, just totally out of the blue.

No DR entries, no announcements, no alarms, no tasks, no nothing. Really freak them out :hugesmile:

This is what I want. These days it's like watching a group in a hotel

[Alec]

Tbh, i don't mind some interaction, like Michelle coming in and Fredireco telling about Jackos death. It made for great viewing (not the fact about him dying, but the drama of it all).

But i don't think stunts like the new president should be told, whats the point?

That happened in Dead Set, well at least thats what they thought happened, and one 'housemate' suggested it was a task.

I said before how much I would love if BB Did that, they would **** themselfs and would probably do somthing like..

Take of Microphones, Cover Cameras, Vandalise the house, jump on the wall, you know like the way you mess about if a teacher leaves the room LOL


Would be intresting to see how far Big Brother would go to keep quiet and how far they would go to get a reaction.

ooo Love it Niamh :joker:

Siavash would of **** himself last year.

BB: Please give the names of your two nominations & explain your reasons for this nomination.

Siavash: I've decided Im not nominating.

BB: Please nominate now or get out through the door on the right.

Siavash: :shocked: Okay I'll nominate..




PMSL That would of been wicked although I did love when BB Said..

'Siavash, You WILL Nominate Big Brother will inform you of who you have nominated later today'

He was bricking it.
