omg almost forgot about this, what a nice surprise
interestingly it doesn't clash with MPD which ends at the odd time of 11:05 and this starts at the odd time of 11:05
hmmmm, strange how they would go out of there way to make sure they dont clash

[daniel-lewis-1985]

How is it strange they go out of the way to make sure they dont clash?!

Obviously Davina fans will want to watch both

[Beastie]

Can't wait.

[Smithy]

Ooohh yay, Im watching :D

[Jordan.]

Ughhh how late do they want to put it on! Will stay up though :)

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

I didn't even know this was on
so thanks for the reminder:xyxwave:

[Jack_]

Stupid time to broadcast it. They really are deluded. 10:15PM for the Awards Show and 11:05PM for this. And next to no advertising.

[BrooklynFan]

Is this something new? sounds exciting!

[eye sea]

Hey thanks for that, OP! I'll be watching!! ;)

[Boothy]

Set this to record on Sky+ a few days ago. Anyone know if they're gonna repeat the Big Quiz again before the real thing starts?

OMG True I just realised now they didn't advertise this or the awards.

The stupid Quiz, Horrible Jade on TV, and the Headline show all got advertised like crazy last year.

[aliacid]

There has been loads of Advertising, on tele, billbords and probably more, so stop moaning.

[Harry!]

Nick is very infuential to BB when you think of it.

[georgehudson]

[ILoveTRW]

i love how they always take the piss out of bb4

[Harry!]

i love how they always take the piss out of bb4

lol

[ILoveTRW]

BB5 = best series ever

[Nicklol123]

Shirley Jones = Woof

[georgehudson]

I have seen loads of teenagers in the crowd then !
I wish they would still let teenagers in ther crowd now, the crowd would be massive if they would !!!!!!
I would be there every week if they would let teenagers!

[President]

Shirley Jones = fit.

[dawa]

This could have done with being longer, giving us a touch more detail about everything. Cant get enough of this stuff lol.

[DigitalSid]

BB5 = best series ever

Something we do agree on, though in the long term it was the death of the show.

[DigitalSid]

Shirley Jones = fit.

Is she blonde?

[President]

Is she blonde?
Yep, why you ask? She's not ditzy if that's what you're wondering.

[Real]

:xyxwave: Hi all.. It's getting me in the swing for BB11 anyway... Have just remembered why i liked BB5 so much :dance: Roll on June 9th..

[Harry!]

Fight Night!

[President]

This documentary is really good.

[Real]

I agree President.. Will watch it again on E4+1.. :hugesmile:

[President]

Sharon Powers looks like a chubby Kate Lawler.

Interesting insight in the backstage stuff which went on.

[Nicklol123]

I like these little tidbits on the live shows

[ILoveTRW]

what, they just total skipped bb6
i knew this show was to good to be true

[President]

Ah Nikki Grahame. :D

[President]

what, they just total skipped bb6
Nasty series. Best left,.

[President]

Phil Edgar Jones made a terrible decision to let a housemate return ni BB7 and let them win. BIG MISTAKE!!

[ILoveTRW]

Nasty series. Best left,.

what, its the 2nd best
and 1st in terms of pure entertainment

[DigitalSid]

Yep, why you ask? She's not ditzy if that's what you're wondering.

Just remember seeing photos of her during BB5.

Was looking for them again a few weeks ago when someone said (the imo pug faced) Sharon Powers was fit but couldn't find them.

[President]

ILoveTRW - BB3, BB5 and BB7 were better series. BB6 wasn't bad but it was a bit of a nasty series!

[Harry!]

Oh dear, Race Row coming up.

[ILoveTRW]

ILoveTRW - BB3, BB5 and BB7 were better series. BB6 wasn't bad but it was a bit of a nasty series!

Why was it nasty?

[DigitalSid]

ILoveTRW - BB3, BB5 and BB7 were better series. BB6 wasn't bad but it was a bit of a nasty series!

It just wasn't really as noteworthy or game changing behind the scenes as the series either side of it.

[President]

Why was it nasty?
i just don't think the housemates as a whole were that likeable. there was 'bullying' such as lesley/sam, maxwell/science/roberto and lots of secret tasks etc. I enjoyed the show but it was a darker series.

[President]

Not much time left to talk about BB9 and BB10

[Smithy]

Shame :/

[ILoveTRW]

yes i agree every single housemate was self obsessed, fame hungary and just generally couldnt care about anyone else but themselves
but i think that why i liked it so much, i like seeing them all back stab each other without a care in the world

[ILoveTRW]

i think this show has made me realise how much BB needs to end this year and not come back for a very long time
it needs to come to an end and rest

[Nicklol123]

The Channel 4 music playing in the background was making me dreamy. It was a very good documentry.

[aliacid]

i think this show has made me realise how much BB needs to end this year and not come back for a very long time
it needs to come to an end and rest

I felt a little bit like this too. It has also made me very sad to see it end though. :bawling:

[You_Tell_Me]

The end made me get all teary. :bawling: :bawling: :bawling:

[Harry!]

Very good doc, much better then the award show.

[aliacid]

The end made me get all teary. :bawling: :bawling: :bawling:

Same :bawling:

[billy123]

i think this show has made me realise how much BB needs to end this year and not come back for a very long time
it needs to come to an end and rest
a break may save it in the long run bb effectively had its balls cut off by the w****rs that constantly complain about it to ofcom.
bb has their hands tied so tightly now the program barely works you can slag c4 off all you like but its demise lies with the dumbass ofcom brigade.
everybody that considers themselves a fan of the show but has ever complained to ofcom is a complete imbecile and should be ashamed of themselves.
those morons on ds that have spent 2 years complaing constantly to c4,endemol,ofcom and whoever else will listen just because they reduced the live feed are complete arseholes as well they call themselves the live feed liberation front and are resonsible for hundreds upon hundreds of complaints the bunch of sad gits they should get a life.

rant over

[Wildcat!]

I missed this show! :(
I really wanted to see it.

Anybody knows, when they show it again? Or where I could watch it?

a couple of days before the launch on channel 4

[Jack_]

That was by far and away the best Big Brother documentary there's been so far. Very well put together.

The ending hit me though. I think I've just realised that Big Brother is ending. I hadn't really thought about it at great length before but this documentary made me realise how much impact it has had in the media over the last decade and on a cultural basis as well. And now I can't believe that it's ending. To the person said they got teary at the end, you're not the only one. The end of an era. Very surreal.

[Wildcat!]

Thanks dude! I am catching the rest of it on E4+1 right now. :)

[*mazedsalv**]

Such a interesting and quite in depth show, I really like it :)

I like hearing about the inside stories, especially regarding Fight Night.

And for the BB1 bit, they made Nick look like the devil, behaviour like that now would have been normal.... however, i dont think it was the cheating that creeped me out, it was the fact that he made a story about his "wife" dying in a car accident, even if you dont have a wife, its quite disturbing he thought that up, and that Davina interview with him was so serious and creepy too

The bloke was a snake but is now a Millionare off the back of BB... Those days of stardom have long gone now...

The contract is only ending with C4... Other channels have shown interest, and i believe someone will take it on.. After all, how many UK Soaps can boast the support of forums like BB has??? I reckon BB will be back ---- on a new Channel-- maybe with a different format, but it is not dead yet...

no, it needs to rest

[Real]

no, it needs to rest

Rest--yes, but it will be back.. :hugesmile:

[DigitalSid]

Celeb BB may return soon, but I can't see it's parent show doing the same just yet.

Is this just your opinion or are talks going on about CBB or something?

[DigitalSid]

I've heard whispers but from no one reliable, I was referring to Five being interested in discussing the winter series but not the summer series, so opinion.

Oh okay. What if this BB rates well, as good as CBB? Do you think they'd consider that as well then?

[DigitalSid]

I don't think so and if I'm honest, I hope not. It desperately needs a rest, whether that's a 2 or 3 year one, a decade or permenant, I guess TPTB will decide.

[Rob!]

Absolutely loved that - for me, the only problem that it wasn't on long enough. Would loved to have seen some behind the scenes footage and some back stories to all the series, but it was bloody good. It really kicked home that Big Brother is coming to a end... 11 years of the most inspirational,controversial and entertaining chapters in television history.

[Real]

I heard 5 and Sky had shown interest in both shows.. So let's not get too downhearted about the show... It is a World-Wide cult... Channels should be interested in hosting it... after all-- the way C4 has treated the forums---- no wonder they ditching it... It is C4 and it's Producers/Directors that have ended BB on Uk TV... We have seen the evidence tonight on the E4 show... They provided a forum-- yet NEVER listened to what we had to say--- The Fans that knew the show inside - out.. They knew better--- and we have seen it tonight.... C4 killed BB.... not BB killing itself...

It could have done with an extra half hour yes and a better timeslot (c4, 10pm, night before launch would have been better).

Take it all with a pinch of salt, spoke to someone on the inside back in January and he didn't seem too confident and hadn't heard of any discussions taking place.

:bawling: Oh well-- lets just hope that someone has the sense to see this is the best Reality Tv prog ever.. and with the right direction would be great again.. :dance: I hope the last one lives up to all the hype.. :elephant: Can't wait for the opening night.. :dance:

[dawa]

That was good, but it left me wanting a lot more! ( I suppose that's the definition of a good TV show though )

[alfiegreen]

I have seen loads of teenagers in the crowd then !
I wish they would still let teenagers in ther crowd now, the crowd would be massive if they would !!!!!!
I would be there every week if they would let teenagers!

they do let teenagers in .... ?

[eye sea]

This documentary is really good.

All the more reason why BB shouldn't be axed.

[karezza]

Nasty Nick is a legend. Rachel Rice is the AntiChrist.

[biggestbrother]

It was nice to see how the producers think behind closed doors.

[Braden]

It was so good, nice to see the producers and the presenters views of the topic.

[Mrluvaluva]

It's on Channel 4 again tonight in case anybody missed it.

[Jayson]

It's on Channel 4 again tonight in case anybody missed it.

That is such a piss take, I watched it on 4od last night thinking it'd be the only chance I'd get to see it. Now I find out I could've watched it whilst lying in bed on a big telly, not an uncomfortable office chair on a diddy computer screen :joker:

[Boothy]

Might watch it again :D

Loved it the first time. Is the Big Quiz gonna be on again this year too?

[Harry!]

It was repeated in may. Not repeated again this week though.

You legend.

[ILoveTRW]

On C4 now

[-=-Razor-=-]

Makes me sad to see how big the crowds were compared to now :/
