I understand there are a lot of people who thoroughly enjoyed the series at the start but owning to all the controversy this week have certainly registered their disapproval, to say the least.

I'm not going to flog a dead horse and bring up this week's shenanigans again but it would be interesting to see if people's opinions have changed throughout this series so far.

I personally think it's been rather good and amidst all that's gone wrong we've had some interesting viewing and it beats hands down the last couple of series and I'd put it just below BB10 in terms of quality.

The last week was bad because of the nastiness, the first 2 weeks were brilliant. This week is all change. The task and twist could be what we need.

Started off quite badly for me, then got better until Chris got evicted and it's been a bit of a steady decline since then, been better the last couple of nights so gave it a 5 instead of a 4 or less

Good - but we need the right winner. It is a pity great housemates have been evicted too early - Victoria, Chris & Benedict.

I agree but I would replace Chris with Lydia. Those three were the ones who I thought would get the highest in the competition. At least we still have the likes of Adam in there to entertain us.

Its okay, the cast are unlikeable, but might like it more when the so called "nasty" crew destroy the so called "nice" people

4, pretty sub-par series, mainly due to the cast.

6. It started off really good, but in the last week it has become awful.

not very enjoyable really ! worst group of tossers ever essembled in one place
no clear winner because most of them are so vile we are forced to like the boring ones
every eviction has been only two housemates 2 big personalities cause the bully brigade run the house
hardly any humour and fun in this one
the producers suck on this one. easiest tasks ever. no punishments. failure to kick conor out , biased dodgy editing. stupid music overs. constant parties and take aways

i voted ridiculus as that whats its been.
i'm hoping it improves and just hoping the tossers get evicted then it will be good
i,ll give this bb one thing though it isnt boring. but its hard to watch so many hateful people

I'll give it a 5.

Just due to the good house-mates being evicted and now what we are left with.

Struggled to care about any of them apart from Adam,Arron,Conor and Chris.

The rest are boring or annoying or both lol

It's good. The tasks so far have been fantasic (with the exception of the no laughing one) and I haven't got bored in an episode

The problems I found with it are in the housemate selection. I still don't agree with almost all of them being under 30, a good portion of them having been "models" or have done some sort of modelling work. Also, there's a lot of very negative characters in there and there isn't really that much positivity to make the fair balance. It's a nasty house (which I love because I'm an awful human being) but with the exception of a couple of times there's not really a point where I've just laughed at the show rather than been frustrated with peoples actions.

By now I usually know who I think deserves to win,not with this bunch...it's a pity they didn't mix the ages up,why so many empty heads and models.
I am hoping the bully group gets what's coming to them,I am sure it will be worth watching then,the bully's have spoiled it for me,one is ok,but so many,such a nasty house,Ben was the only one who could have put them in their place.
Once again too many of the strong HM have gone.
I think I am being generous,in giving the show a 3.

8/10

Started off brilliant but it's starting to be let down by the best characters leaving first and BB stopping the nominations talk. If we're left with just the chavs I can see my opinion on it going down rapidly.

I'm already at the pointwhere I'll watch something on another channel if I think it'll be more interesting. That's never happened this early.

The first week was decent. Slowly got worse from then on, especially when Chris left.

I switched off entirely last Monday, which speaks for itself. Not an enjoyable watch when you're struggling to find even one housemate to like.

It is a fab series but its getting way to repetitive hopefully next weeks twist changes it up a bit.

I'm definitely enjoying it, but for me it has peaked between about days 7 and 18. Especially now with Lydia gone I'm thinking it'll go further downhill. I won't give up hope, but I'm not optimistic. I voted 7 because it had a really strong start and I want to stay upbeat about it.

7. It has been a very enjoyable series despite all of the evictions being the wrong result. I just fear that it's going to go downhill and get massively boring now Lydia's left.

^this

And for me to call it 'pretty good' is really saying something. Nobody more disappointed when they 'fake ended' and then seeing the counterfeit version of 5 come on.

But they got this one right. So far. If they can resist the urge to blast lasers introducing the 'outrageous new HMs' then this could be one of the best.

Evictions, weak punishments, fix allowing the Deana v Lydia eviction when the Insiders had been discussing and easy tasks have let it down. But the HMs have been really entertaining, however most of them are gone now so it could well fall.

I was tempted to vote brilliant, almost perfect because I am loving it, but the nomination results have all been disappointing and not one housemate has been evicted yet that I didn't like.:mad: Plus lack of live feed and BB being too soft and we are not even at the half way stage yet, so I voted very good instead.

Are you people watching a different series to me ?
2. AWFUL!!!!!

One of the worst groups of housemates ever assembled for a BB series. A total lack of really interesting or even likeable people.

Indy
30-06-2012, 04:46 PM
It's way too cushy in there, even worse than last series. When losing alcohol and/or music is the punishment for noms talk, they won't care. They shouldn't have the alcohol and music to be taken away so often in the first place. The first two weeks of noms talk set the tone for months of whining, and only putting up 2 at a time every week makes voting to save pointless.

This group especially, I would've loved to see in a house where day one has no furniture, no pool, no bedroom, and you have to earn your spot or at least earn access to very basic things like hot water and a bed.

Some concerned about the 'big characters' going early. It is a shame Chris, Lydia and Benedict all left since all were psychos, insecure (like Benedict) or just crazy strange types,
however,
This season has PLENTY left. There is a whole lot of crazy left in there. And more time to get to know it. And push and pull it out of the remaining ones. Who will start showing crazy tendencies as it goes along.

Do you seriously think Benedict is insecure??? He had more genuine confidence than the other three evictees combined.

8, what stopped it from being 10 is the fact that the best HMs are departing.

I scored it an 8 so far, I love it so far. And despite having lost big characters in the last few evictions, I think there is plenty of entertaining hms left.

There was that awful ep where Deana was picked on, but other than that I've thought most of the eps were good fun.

Don't see how anyone could think its terrible. Guess they like series like BB4 and BB11.

Do I think a man who is so contemptuous about other boys having bigger muscles he hides tuna, ruins protein shakes is insecure? YES. Of course. Then makes the saddest attempt at replaying his petty insecurity as 'teaching lessons'.
That guy is nothing but desperate insecurity. It's almost worrisome you cannot see just how massive it is. You need to be able to spot things like that in life. It's a gigantic advert with flashing lights FFS

*and yes, it did hurt the show he left too early, however, the good news is that there are plenty of others and some just need a bit more coaxing to make up the difference.
