Big Brother 12 | Wish List

[Patrick]

I thought I'd make this to hear everyone's ideas in one big thread, I made a thread last night hearing what you lot thought should not be removed from the show, now this is the opposite it's what should be added to the show.


Now think honestly,
If Richard Desmond or any member from C5 came on these forums [and if BB12 does happen, I can assure you a C5 member will come on here, we won't know it though] and they wanted you to give them some ideas for what you think as a Big Brother fan, should be added to the series or to the format.

You can pick on any subject from the Advertising Campaign, Graphics, Presenters, Spin Offs, House, Housemates, Evictions, CBB, Public Interaction etc etc

You may think this is a long shot now, but it has happened before I mean like I said a member could come on here in a few months time from C5, Won't say a word.. will scan this thread and a few others for ideas and then give them to the rest of the team.

So here's you chance to say what you want changed or added to Big Brother.

[Novo]

Agreed. Yeah daily highlights need to be shown on the internet website. And BBLB on everday for half an hour. BBBM should be on once a week after an eviction. Or twice a week if there are two evictions.. etc..

[Braden]

Let us choose a housemate in advanced, and they can be a mole...not one that does rubbish tasks and has to dress up like an actual mole.

[Braden]

I also hope for a new host...Someone we haven't heard of before and preferably a female.

[DigitalSid]

C5 would just be comissioning the show, Endemol would retain creative control.

[DigitalSid]

I also hope for a new host...Someone we haven't heard of before and preferably a female.

Kate Edmundson maybe.

[Braden]

Kate Edmundson maybe.

Yeah, she'd make the show a lot more trendy.

[Niall]

1) HUGE advertising campaign. But it needs to be ambiguous. Like closeups of the new eye start appearing all over the country and after the eye is revealed all the billboards are altered to reveal the new eye as well as the launch date.

2) Cut the spin offs. No one watches them, seriously.

3) Revamp the whole series, i.e Brand new house. We need a massive change, a new house would bring that. Not a must but it would be interesting.

4) A really new and fresh launch night twist. Something inventive and shocking this time.

5) Vote to save.

6) And finally, I want the production team to actually listen to fans. :bored:

[Kate!]

vote to save is the most important, relevant and best change I could ask for.

Another Series of Celebrity Hijack please

:worship:

[iRyan]

This is how I would like them to re-market it:

-Start off with a fresher, young cast. Nobody older than 26 unless there are needed exceptions. Pick people that are eager and excited and looking to have fun.
-Cast outrageous party personalities and dramatic people.
-Have Emma Willis as the fresh and young new host.
-Make the house very big, open and communal so the housemates have less places to "hide"
-Make each eviction a vote to save.
-Have an 'open bar' that will be closed during the day but open at nights on often occasions, where there is an almost unlimited supply of alcohol.
-More physically demanding and challenging tasks with good prizes.

And possibly....
-Make the format like Big Brother Brazil (A BB US and BB UK hybrid). Have a Head of House competition where the winner gets their own private bedroom and other luxuries, and gets to choose 1 housemate to personally nominate for eviction while the housemates vote to choose the other nominated housemates.
-Have 'Power of Veto/Immunity' competition like in BB11 but where other housemates beside those nominated also get to compete.

Agree with that, last year was terrible for it. Shabby demanding her own personal space, horrible little wench. Also Ben and co would spend hours in the nest talking about exactly the same thing. It totally divded the group

[Niamh.]

Have Brian Dowling (Ultimate HM) as presenter
Plenty of twists
Lots of alcohol

More things i've thought of :amazed: :

7) Reintroduce the Power of Veto & Head of House roles but with American style rules. I.e every week there is a different HoH and they nominate one person. The rest of the house nominates a second person. The two who are nominated then compete in a task for the PoV and can choose someone else instead of themselves to be nominated.

8) One large open planned house, ideally like BB6 or 7. But add some places for the HM's to bitch like the nest or the loft.

9) Davina as a presenter. Failing that Emma from BBLB.

10) Eatock eye. This shouldn't even have to be on a list actually but whatever..

[BBDodge]

10 weeks maximum with no late HMs (except to replace walkers).

Stop evicting the babes in week 1!

[dizzy bint]

My only wish is to have Brian Dowling as the main presenter.

He would be fantastic on interviews.
Honestly.

[AJ.]

The most important thing imo is not turning it into some xfactor soap opera like they did with BB11, can see C5 going even further with it :(

The music & eyes! Which are tied to Endemol not C4?

Emma willis as host, if not then anyone thats not overly camp, bitchy, shallow.

24/7 LIVE FEED!

No crap twists ( BB11 space ship :| ) instead have proper unexpected twists like the BB5 bedsit/stu eviction.

No overcensoring, keep it real as possible.

Looser laws on alchol/fags

Not allowed to go to sleep untill atleast 11 except ofcourse for illness etc.

Better tasks that actually challenge the hms. Some 24hrs/3day tasks, maybe some easy looking tasks that are genuinely impossible. Be creative, I don't wanna see so many if any boring tasks in the diary room that just entail who can remember the most words...

Absolutely NO CONTACT with the outside world! None, not even video messages, letters at most but maybe not even that.

Vote to save! Vote to evict ruins the show completely, just look at the BB11 final week, what a joke.

If hms say they wanna leave & they're calm let them leave! If they're stressed give them time to calm down & if they still wanna leave then let them go asap.

Minimal interference, don't get involved in arguments unless for proper bullying/racism etc. Don't tell people to apologise or guide people in anyway, keep it real.

No media trained people atall!

Mess with their heads, be unpredictable.

Hopes the tree of temptation is back lol.

[LemonJam]

Having thought about it, the nomination process is what needs to change really, more so than the public voting process.

The housemates that get nominated are probably about 80% of the time the most entertaining of that week. So yeah, nomination changes or power of veto or something like that would change things nicely.

[BBfanUSA]

Vote to save
allow discussing nominations among hgs they been doing that too much anyway so just lift it (nomming still mandatory)
have a young host
keep marcus bentley
alcohol is a must

Mmm no. It has to be something different now. The Tree of Temptation gave housemates pointless tasks. A part of me thought.. they have this tree because the housemates are so boring they need to give them pointless tasks to fill up the 1 hour BB show.....

[GypsyGoth]

I don't want anyone to give birth on it.

[Tony1111]

7. Chickens to make a return.
8. Viewers allowed to sabotage housemates via online polls.

11. A reworking of the Element 4 themetune.
12. A new presenter.
13. Presenter enters house to reveal the saved housemates.

15. The return of Marcus Bentley.
16. A Big Brother who isn't lenient.
17. Little censorship.
18. 45 minute episodes with hour long episodes Saturdays and evictions.
19. A weekly catch up episode.
20. Live feed via internet or interactive.
21. Penalties if tasks are failed such as prize money going down.
22. Penalties for broken rules.

24. Option for nominated housemates to see why people have nominated them.
25. No second chances or re-entering once deciding to leave.

[bbnut]

I'm a lurker normally, but I just wanted to get my thoughts in.

1, As others have said Marcus Bentley is the only narrator for BB, it just wouldn't be right with anyone else.

2, The element 4 themetune and Daniel Eatock eyes must stay.

3, 3 strikes and you're out rule for persistant rule breakers.

4, Producers, editors, presenters etc must remain impartial.

5, Make BBLB into a useful gossip and catchup programme instead of the mish-mash of cheesy VT's and games that it had become.

6, NO outside contact at all, EVER.

7, New HM's only to replace leavers, new HM's must not talk about outside world or will be up for eviction automatically. Definitely no new HMs after halfway point.

8, The second time a HM asks to leave they are given their suitcase and told to leave.

9, If HM's fail a task and have a basic budget then they must not be rewarded with parties, treats etc.

10, Unlimited alcohol once or twice a week.

11, Better tasks, no tasks that involve putting on an outfit and doing something when a certain song/sound is played. More endurance / skill / teamwork type tasks.

12, A psychological show and diary room uncut show.

13, 24 hour live feed is a MUST, preferably 2 feeds or multiroom.

14, Properly live evictions, no delays, or 5 minutes at most.

15, Votes to save.

16, Everyone up at least once during the series.

17, Weekly live tasks

18, The housemates should have things to do more often, there's too much sitting around. Books aren't the best idea, but instruments worked. Chickens were good but apparently too much hassle. Growing veg could be bought back.




I know thats pretty much the same as what alot of other people have said, oh well!!

[InOne]

No leaving the house at all for tasks. BB11 was a piss take for that.

I agree with most of this expect i think there should be new housemates half way though , its mix's it up and keeps it fresh. Also i think big brother has changed , so i like watching the housemates in silly costumes doing silly tasks. And i everyone up once in the series , is a no no , the housemates always decide who should be nominated, thats the beauty of big brother. Finally I dont understand why people want votes to save , care to explain?

[bbnut]

The last few years there have been alot of complaints that the boring HM's end up in the final. Usually the ones who slip through the net without having done anything to deserve a place in the final, but who haven't really done anything to deserve eviction or nomination. If it was a vote to save then boring housemates are more likely to leave early on.

Admittedly it wouldn't always work like that, but then the current system doesn't always work either. It would be an interesting change and worth a try.

You can't be serious?

Er, Because Big Brother 11 turned into a complete travesty and we were robbed off the glorious amazing finale we should of had when they did the quadruple eviction.

THIS IS A FACT:

Had they of made it a Vote To Save:

Steve, JJ, Andrew or Mario would of left and we would of had:

Sam, Corin, Josie and John James in the final.
The most unpredictable final ever and Josie wouldn't of won.

But did we get that? No.
Because the producers wanted to kill the show and that SHOWED it in August when they pulled that stunt.

Any Big Brother fan knows a Vote To Save = A 10 Times More Entertaining Series.

People like Jo, Rachel Rice, Steve, Maysoon, The BB8 Cast etc would of never of stayed as long as they did if it was a Vote To Save all the time.

Look at Big Brother 10:

Week 1 - Vote To Save - Boring Benizare Went.

Week 7 - Vote To Save - Dull Hira Evicted.


I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here is alot more entertaining in some people's eyes and unlike Big Brother 11 it managed to stay entertaining the whole way, why?

Well, They do a Vote To Save.
The Dullards Go, The Entertainers Stay Until The VERY END.

Do you get it now?

[Beastie]

I remember last year.. when the Million Pound Drop first aired and me and a few others thought it would interlink with BB11.

I would love bb12 to have more of a gameshow feel. Like maybe interlink with the Million Pound Drop or something??

There needs to be plenty of booze and parties. There needs to be plenty of tasks!! In one task.. if you win.. then you win immunity from being up for eviction and in another task is when you are trying to win to gain more money for the final prize fund!!

[fizzybee]

I want them to have a lot more freedom & plenty of booze and arguments :D

Not quite as epicly over the top though.

[Mystic Mock]

i think everybody should be up for a votes to save everyweek,or if not that then the ones with 4 or more nominations go up for a votes to save.

stop streotyping genders and religions and other stuff.

edit the housemates more fairly (i.e the entertaining ones)

stop making tasks that involve men dressing as women as its not funny.

theres probably more that i havent thought of so i will post more later.

I would agree with all those especially voting to save and the other thing I would like is if a housemate threatens or asks to leave then on the second time of asking, they are just shown the door, no more discussion and none of this will they won't they go nonsense.

Especially when they have no intention whatsoever of leaving and just want a fuss made of them to get them to stay.

- DIARY ROOM!

This, but without the unbold ones, although it would make it absoloutly brilliant, there are things as a TV channel that they have to obide by. If there was a fist fight they would have to call them to the Diary Room to break it up and not unlimited alcohol, just ALOT, we dont want to kill our housemates :spin:

Charley and Chanelle were brilliant housmates, other than that.. BOLLOCKS!

[georgehudson]

The most important thing imo is not turning it into some xfactor soap opera like they did with BB11, can see C5 going even further with it :(

The music & eyes! Which are tied to Endemol not C4?

Emma willis as host, if not then anyone thats not overly camp, bitchy, shallow.

24/7 LIVE FEED!

No crap twists ( BB11 space ship :| ) instead have proper unexpected twists like the BB5 bedsit/stu eviction.

No overcensoring, keep it real as possible.

Looser laws on alchol/fags

Not allowed to go to sleep untill atleast 11 except ofcourse for illness etc.

Better tasks that actually challenge the hms. Some 24hrs/3day tasks, maybe some easy looking tasks that are genuinely impossible. Be creative, I don't wanna see so many if any boring tasks in the diary room that just entail who can remember the most words...

Absolutely NO CONTACT with the outside world! None, not even video messages, letters at most but maybe not even that.

Vote to save! Vote to evict ruins the show completely, just look at the BB11 final week, what a joke.

If hms say they wanna leave & they're calm let them leave! If they're stressed give them time to calm down & if they still wanna leave then let them go asap.

Minimal interference, don't get involved in arguments unless for proper bullying/racism etc. Don't tell people to apologise or guide people in anyway, keep it real.

No media trained people atall!

Mess with their heads, be unpredictable.

Agreed. But without the fags bit, the alcohol I agree with but when they dont have fags its funny to watch them so angry and then it causes arguements :D

[Beastie]

Everything that was wrong with the last few series. All young, ditzy and shallow.

Aww BB8 wasn't that bad! :hugesmile:

[CharlieO]

Eatock eye design
Element 4 theme tune
Davina (i know there is no chance but she is big mother)
A new really good theme, like bb5 evil but different.
No one leaving the house for a task or any contact what so ever.
more housemates that are big personalities but not too big and as much as possible not wanting fame
Better tasks which are more secretive (like bb7 prison) no dress up horseraces like thing.
More alcohol/ parties
no shorter than 13 week series
More twists
Vote to save/ Vote to evict
bblb and bbbm
live feed on internet
more diary room footage
ambigious advertising campaign
no nominations save task
shopping list footage again
keep standbys in hiding
if not davina someone who is related to it like emma, dermot, old housemates (brian)
dont let housemates hear the crowd
live friday evictions still
make housemates feel more like its completely secluded and more like they are being watched
big brother doesnt often relate/sympathise with housemates in diary room but is factual and matter of fact

[BBfanUSA]

Just as a curiousity stand point

I would like to see a hg exchange with BBUSA just so i can finally watch the show over here (Cause I think BBUSA and BBUK are awesome)

Channel 4 made Big Brother, Big Brother.. So are Channel 5 gonna stick to BB as we know it? Or completely revamp it, top to toe!?

Eye?! No Eye?! New logo completely??
Any Spin Offs? Big Brother's Cousins Friend Michael?!
Presenters?! No Davina.. Possibly Emma??
New Rules?! Oooooh that would be interesting

Whats the house gonna look like!? Completely new layout!!
2 floors maybe??
Scrapping the diary room??
pool or jacuzzi?!

But honestly, what do you think and what do you want from Channel 5?

What do you want as a logo? Keep the eye?
Do you want a new spin off? If so what?
Who do you think should present?
What do you want the house to look like?
New Rules? Old Rules?

I've kinda missed TiBB and all this LOL :joker

[BIG-BRO-FAN]

So, the brilliant and exciting news that BB is back with a four week celeb-series in August and the traditional 13 week series from September, woop woop!! What do you want to see from Channel 5 for Big Brother??

I'd like:


Big Brother to be more strict
No rule-breaking whatsoever
Double story house - upstairs and downstairs
Indoor pool - obviously it'll be colder between September and December plus it'll reduce outdoor noise levels
Extremely swish diary room - maybe some sort of glass where they can see the house through some one-way glass or something
Bigger garden
Separate living room (like in BB6)
FRESH tasks that have not been done before
Big Brother to be CRUEL

i want all of that but no 2 storeys. but i want big brother to be really un sympathetic and monotonus and robot like in diary room rather than sympathising

[_Seth]

Definitely agree about the separate living room (like BB6 and BB10). I dunno why but I loved it when they were separated from the main house.

[Tony1111]

I think more space between the living room and dining room would be good to as an alternative. :D

This, and also I want Big Brother to provide them with proper parties so they can all get drunk and go crazy. I still burst out laughing at the party Big Brother tried to give the housemates on UBB. It was like one bottle of wine and they had to play childish party games. It was so awkward :D

There also needs to be loads of entertainment for the housemates all the time, it can't go like BB11 again where Big Brother ignored them for the majority of the time so all the housemates got bored and went to the bedroom to sleep nearly every day.

[lukee]

i hope people from five are on here talking note

[Tony1111]

I want a torture chamber where rule breakers are excluded from the rest of the house have there hands and feet strapped to the wall and be forcefully tickled with a feather! :devil:

[JohnnyBB]

all i want is just one big 13 week piss up! a massive party with lots of sex fight slaginng off and pyhsical violence!

[Tony1111]

Big Brother 5 was a joy so hopefully it's like that but nobody gets carried away and goes on a killing spree.

[BIG-BRO-FAN]

Also, lots of alcohol and in the words of Michelle Bass "naked jacuzinesssss"

[Tony1111]

It would be a dream for a series to Top BB5-BB7 that would be craziness, sex, booze and characters combine. The good thing was the BB5-7 had relatively young and crazy people in it and since they had matured come UBB it wasn't half as entertaining. In a way people say they don't want all these 20 something wannabe's but it worked in BB5 and in my opinion it was the best! :D

[Nick.B]

I would like to see a really nice Diary room. I love the DR (They should bring back DR Uncut as well!!). Big Brother definitely needs to be evil and twisted, but, on the same note they need alcohol so they can go wild, crazy, have a bit of scrapping, arguing and BB wouldn't be BB without any sex.

Fight Night needs to make a return, that entertained me. Get them to a state that they don't know who they are anymore and let them scrap.

We need genuine people too, no wannabe's, please?

[Tony1111]

We need another fight night or serious rows. Hopefully Channel 5 don't slack on the nudity I doubt they will but serious we went from Michelle's tits being out all night in BB5 to Angel swimming naked in BB9 and then to a wet T-shirt in BB11. Their downfall was turning it into a tame, teenage non-risk show in the end what didn't appeal to the wider audience. :(

[JohnnyBB]

Suggest producers don't use the element four theme tune I suggest a major tweak with the big brother 12" mix it would bring a sorta back to basic,s theme to the show.

[Tony1111]

I think Nominations should be completely rebooted:

One nomination per Housemate
One Minute to nominate or no vote
Refusal to nominate results in being up for nomination
Two people up for eviction per week

There should be changes to the house too:

Bedroom:
Everyone to sleep in one large bed
One large blanket and pillow

Garden:
Smaller with no pool
Chicken coupe return

Pool room:
Heated indoor pool
Sauna

General ideas:
I would completely remove the task room and Tree of Temptation
Housemates should be required to earn their stay in the house
They should be required to wake up at 6AM and only be in bed by Midnight
Limit on Food budget additional money to be taken out of the prize fund
Plenty of Parties
Harsh punishment for rule breakers
Rule breakers to be made example of
No outside contacts

Task ideas:
All housemates to compete
Team work is necessary
Anyone not putting in effort means failed task
Every time a task is failed the prize fund decreases

[penguinposse]

I Really Hope...

the music stays the same
marcus does the voice over
nighty highlight shows
live evictions
vote to save
it runs for 13 weeks or longer lol
the prize money actually is £500,000
emma willis presents it
they bring bblb back
we have 24/7 live feed that we dont have to pay for

The voters will never change. It's a fact that they vote out the controversial characters. If they wont change then the system needs changing.

I agree voting to evict makes it more exciting but id rather have duller evictions and a more epic series on the whole.

BB12 has to be different. People have slagged off and given up on BB because it has dragged on with sh!t lazy housemates. With 500 grand at stake. I reckon they will take some ideas from BBUSA.

A vote to SAVE is a priority. Get rid of some deadwood first. With at least 4 housemates up per week!

Big Brother to be CRUEL



Done to death much?

[Patrick]

It would be a dream for a series to Top BB5-BB7 that would be craziness, sex, booze and characters combine. The good thing was the BB5-7 had relatively young and crazy people in it and since they had matured come UBB it wasn't half as entertaining. In a way people say they don't want all these 20 something wannabe's but it worked in BB5 and in my opinion it was the best! :D

The reason BB5 was so good, and this is also why BB9 was also good;

Is because Big Brother was on top form, as in the producers.
BB5 and BB9 were two 'comeback' series after a poor series before both of them, so the producers pulled out all the stops to make those series brilliant.

The housemates they happened to pick those years, particularly BB5, were so diverse and entertaining it was unbelievable.

So Big Brother and the Housemates went hand in hand, and I think that's all it takes really.

For Big Brother / Endemol to be working at their hardest in terms of twists and tasks and for the Housemates to be outstanding.

That's something BB10 lacked, the Housemates [not as much as BB9 but they tried] were quite good, and under rated.
It's just Big Brother gave them crappy tasks and didn't bother doing anything, Endemol got lazy and Marcus Akin was left to carry the 2009 series on his own, then he left and it all fell apart.

[Patrick]

There will still be quite a bit due to personal information and chatting about family members etc, despite how annoying it is for us to keep hearing the birds noise over the top:joker:.

LOL yeah but C5 aren't as PC.

Channel 4 would censor just because someone said the word ***** or if they spoke about something they'd rather save for 'BBLB News' or the Highlights.

Plus, if they do cut sound out - we can just switch to another room until it's back :)

[Sh?t Happens]

A vote to save would make it just like all the other shows, we vote to evict who we don't like and give them a good booing on their way out.

[MusicMan]

Vote to save!
Even if it's just for the first main series to 'trial' it. It needs to be at least tried because let's face it, the best characters stay in. If it turns out to be a complete fail then fair enough but they need to give it a chance for a whole series.
Also a BIG, open house with a BIG garden and cool-shaped rooms and stuff. Not that big a deal but I just don't like it when it's all box-ish like BB8 and BB10.
Oh and the diary room in some place other than under the stairs!
Oh and an Eatock eye!
Oh and no BB11 Steve/Dave/Andrew/Mario/Ife/JJ/Jo/Most-of-the-BB11-cast characters - more BB5/6 types!
That is all :)
Oh and for BB to stop interfering so much other than for tasks, rule breaks and BB5 fight night type incidents. It's meant to be watching how things pan out between the people in the house, not putting people in there to be robots controlled by big brother.
That is all :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Not to focus on certian housemates.... espically boring ******* like john james and josie, aka the showmance *******.

Give each housemate a chance in editing.... unless somehting big happens like a massive argument.

Editing needs to stop being baised.... many housemates on live feed are complete bitches, however in the highlights their shown as a saint.

Vote to save.

It would save a lot of the louder (usually irritating and equally entertaining) characters that have enough fans.

Vote to evict usually means they are out early, especially if they are up against a "dull"/under the radar housemate that people can't be bothered to pay money/ring up to evict.

[the_last_remaining_fan]

i would like to see them go "back to basics" but with interesting people..

like it was at the very start, no gimmicks, twists, comings and goings of housemates..just keep it simple, but not with a BB4 scenario where everyones dull.

(even though i watched that entire series anyway...)

[Tony1111]

I'm all for not focusing on certain housemates on the show it became like a soap in the latter series with certains housemates not getting any screentime what so ever! :o

[Braden]

One of the things I disliked about Big Brother 11 was it's tendancy to over complicate things in the house, with things like The Tree of Temptation, Bob Righter and Davina Mcrawl (or whatever the bird was called). It needs to just go back to basics. If they put the right kind of housemates in there, they won't need to make any twists in the house.

[_Seth]

Get rid of the task room and expand the garden. I loved it when they did tasks out in the sun. <3 (Even though BB12 will be in winter, but ignore that.) I like tasks taking place in random areas of the main house.

yes. i also want the coming up tomorrow/tonight bit to stop. makes it feel more like a constructed tv show rather than being immersed in the goings on and feeling like your in there as your viewing in the days order.

[Patrick]

I kind of agree.
It certainly made BB11 feel more BBUSA/Soap/Fake when they did that, I mean that alone made it bad but then of course you've got the whole Music being played over tasks and montages and stuff, that made BB11 seem even more childish and fake.

But I like the 'Coming Up..' things they use to do before BB10.
It was better to have a 'Coming Up..' screen, rather than it just going on a break all of a sudden.

I remember how pissed people were actually on Day 2 of BB10 when they were took away LOL
Not to bothered about the 'Tonight..' thing, but the 'Tomorrow' ones have to go - I agree.

[Patrick]

Also on Evictions, we need Davina's opening lines back again and the scary BB Theme playing over it.

Like:
'Tonight.. It's the Hunk VS The Babe... But who have you nailed?'
-Opening Titles jump in-


That was far better than some stupid montage put together letting us know what went on in the house that week and who's up, and then the opening titles.

yes, watching bb9 atm, they are so good. i love how the titles kick in so dramatically. I HATED the whole vote online for video and they will pass sort of thing. montages can ****** off unless they are in eviction interview and then they shouldnt be cheesy with the crap music. god reminded me of how annoying bb11 was.

but everyone seems to like it. im going to watch some of bb9's ones.

[Patrick]

The BB9 ones were good, they extended some great DR moments and then had some ones that were never shown on the HLs.

I was thinking about this today and i think the majority of us TIBB BB fans will not be happy. Channel 5 will have told endemol, get us viewers, get us money, get us popular. Also there is a new production team so i really dont think any of the BB fundamentals will be respected at all and all we are going to see is an over dramatised reality show like BBUSA. Not pleased. But we will have to wait and see.

Things have to change though. The format obviously has to change. We get promised a lot of the same sh!t every year that doesn't happen. This is why the format has to dramatically change really. Be more like a gameshow.

[supergirthuk]

This is an ideal opportunity to change and grow. Totally new format, presentation and to get away from the tedious, banal drivel that eventually killed the show on Channel 4. The only thing I would retain is the eye as a symbol/brand.

As I have said for years the producers need to toughen up on HMs and they need to make the program more like the book than an episode of Housemate Holidays' 6 or Prison Rule Break.

Housemates should be made to have to earn their prize with hard physical and mental tasks that push them to their limit and not have a free ride or coast along for the whole summer. I want cruelty and nigh on torture of these people and then the last person standing will definitely be deserving.

Under no circumstancce should there be free passes to the final and anyone requesting to leave should be immediately removed from the house.

[UKBigBrother]

Not to go to an extreme, but I don't want it to be Gladiators. What makes BB entertaining is the drama the housemates create with each other when they're not given anything to do. I want bitching, backstabbing, drinking and fights. I don't see the appeal of really hard mental and physical tasks as much as some people do. =/

I'd hate Gladiators style stuff too. I want them to suffer hardship and for them to be have their minds messed with to the point that they really don't know who to trust including even their own judgement. By physical, I mean massive tests of endurance and stamina that should lead to stress, fatigue, anxiety and thus arguments.

I suppose I just feel that they could bring it closer to vision of the book rather than a copy of Heat.

I appreciate its a dramatic change but feel the best BB has been when it has been cruel (sadly not often enough). Recent years, I feel by the third or fourth week the producers the scene is set for the rest of the series and producers either can't be bothered or lazily recycle stuff from other global BB series. It's a tired format and surely C5 need to breathe new life into it.

I honestly think I may not watch this year if they just repeat the format and put the likes of Emma Willis as host. She is even worse than McCall and that's going some. I don't think I have seen her get through an episode of any program she has been on without her misreading the autoqueue/teleprompter. Sadly, I wouldn't be surprised if she got it though.

I quite fancy the thought of Andy Gray and or Richard Keys if they could get them. Hopefully it would give them a chance to put the last couple of nails in their career coffins.

It would be interesting to put McCall in the new BB house so that she could hopefully crucify her career too.

Maybe a footballer or ex-footballer, a porn star, an actress, a bishop, a politician and a couple of musicians/pop stars

A big open plan house. I know its been said but just went from bb9 to bb10 (re-watching) and the bb10 house is horrible to watch.

Bring back the chicken coop!!! :bigsmile:

[BOOSH]

Bring back the chicken coop!!! :bigsmile:

Haha yes!

Watching back on older series, I wish they'd have them all sit on the sofas when they nominate, makes it more intense and awkward.

She won't be returning. :)

24/7 live feed - Red button & internet to much to ask for?

No outside contact atall! - No family members or crew to be allowed in the house or be seen by the housemates.

Keep the music - Element four.

Don't aim the show at 10 year olds! 16+ audience.

No media trained people, pick people straight off the street.

Keep it real! Don't break up arguments & tell people to apologise, don't guide people atall, only get involved if it's serious.

Better tasks! Some 24hrs/3day tasks. Less if any boring tasks in the diary room seeing who can spell the best or eat fish guts.

Don't make it into a soap opera! Boring is better than fake.

Vote to save. Vote to evict gets rid of the best characters.

Get rid of the chavy audience.

Marcus Bentley

Looser with alcohol & fags - Marco's excluded.

Keep the eye designs

Don't let people sleep between 10am-midnight

No crap twists ( BB11 space ship :| ) instead have proper unexpected twists like the BB5 bedsit/stu eviction.

Mess with their heads, be unpredictable.

Emma Willis as host? if not then anyone that's not overly camp, bitchy, shallow.

Nightly hour shows, nightly 30 mins BBLB style show.

Massive advertising campaign - Billboards/eye flashes etc but also creative advertising like what C4 did with the Uffington white horse!

Penalties for rule breakers.

No fauxmances.

500,000 starting prize fund, failed tasks lose cash.

Unbiased editing & coverage.

Phew :)

A non-smoking house would be a nice change. Also a tiny garden in comparison to the amount of housemates so that there isnt enough room for them all to relax/sunbathe at once.

[CharlieO]

Large garden with real grass.

Diary room that is a secret bookcase twirly thing to reveal a secret room for a task or for surprise evictions. Or a basement and the chair is like a lift that goes up and down to reveal a secret hideaway.

I dont like the idea of a small garden, its just encouraging them to be in bed all the time.

Taking into account the time of year BB12 will be on, I'm not sure they'll be AS bothered with the garden, unless we have quite a warm autumn. :tongue:

They could remove or tip the beds up each morning like the did previously.

Also they could have tasks running throughout the whole show that they need to do to maintain the prize fund. Say a thousand miles a week or so needs to be completed on a exercise bike or treadmill to keep the prize fund at the initial level. It doesn't have to be an exercise machine so long as it keeps them busy and tests their stamina and endurance. It builds the fatigue and frays tempers.

1. most important one, give them booooooze and don't be so pc and strict
2. make the tasks difficult with excellent rewards for passing and harsh punishments for failing, no pussy footing around them
3. make them nominate face to face every week, using pen and paper
4. or let them discuss nominations, but throw in random twists at various stages
5. no davina the witch
6. no george the wanker
7. have the pretty girl present, i forgot her name though and can't be bothered to google it :tongue:
8. get rid of big mouth ****e and extend the highlights instead to 2 hours per night :elephant:

3. make them nominate face to face every week, using pen and paper
4. or let them discuss nominations, but throw in random twists at various stages:

Every week it would just be "I vote Jason because I think he wants to go home" or some other boring excuse, private noms in the diary room should be kept where hms can say how they really feel.

Discussing noms would be even worse imo, if you wanna discuss noms now you have to be clever about it, if they openly allowed it it would just feel like even more dumbing down Americanising.

I reckon the major things are;
24/7 LF
Less PC/censoring/mediating
Turn it back into a 16+ show, don't pander to tweens
100% no contact with outside world
Better tasks
Don't twist for the sake of it
Keep it real.
:)

I would love to see a task like they did in bb5. Cant mind what it was called but it was like big brother became mcdonalds and had housemates up at night cooking and driveing them mad.
They got like 5 mins to make a burger lol
