I really miss BB13 :(

[Me. I Am Salman]

It was such a good series in hindsight and def a classic. Great eye, great mix of housemates and great storyline. Sometimes it was hard to watch (Deana getting bullied, Conor winning £50k) but it was fun too (Scott's funny outbursts, the hilarious forum hatred for Becky <3)

I miss it so much. BB14 was complete garbage compare to it

[Shaun]

preach. best c5 series by far.

[Samm]

BB14 had one off the best first weeks ever tbh, I can't decide which one I like Better tbh

[Samm]

Oh and Conor was the worst housemate in history he should have gone first

[T*]

I really miss C4 bb. I have nostalgia moments when I just remember chilling in my living room when I was around 7-10 and it still being light outside when it was on, and I'd watch it and get really excited. I miss those days so much. :( it's really tacky on channel 5.

I miss it to, I miss Deana :'(

and Conor should've gone first but I'll not delve into that topic again..

[Jarrod]

BB13 and BB14 both had the greatest moments from Big Brother in a while. BB14 beats it for me though.

Loved both series, however :love:

[Drew.]

Great series, both BB12 & BB13 > BB14 though

[Samm]

Fourth best series :love:

I did love it, probably my favourite on 5, but no matter how good a series is, the true excitement is gone :(

[Glenn.]

It was a fantastic series :love:

I'm really glad to see the appreciation for Big Brother 13 not just here but on other internet forums as well, and I would make the argument it's gone the same way as BB10 in by a criminally overlooked higher tier series in my eyes.

In many ways I see this series as a defining one for the direction of the channel 5 era of the show, we saw with BB12 that initially production did visualize the show as more tween orientated and targeting the youth audience overtly only to get a negative backlash for it, with 13 we got something of a hybrid cast as it were, yes these tween type housemate did return but they were mixed with the diverse casting choices more akin to a C4 series, particularly with people like Adam and Luke A which in my eyes wouldn't have gotten anywhere near BB12 IMO. It is quite apt that the divide of the house seemed to fall roughly around those lines as well, and the argument could be made that the unanimous support for the outsiders lead to C5 going for the C4 esque BB14 cast.

I think the insiders vs outsiders story arc was one of the best house splits we've seen on the show as well, B Block vs the Whisper Club was good but suffered from B Block at times have issues with self-righteousness which was at times off-putting whilst BB10 gets harmed due to the arguably villainous group coming out on top, the outsiders however were perfect protagonists, the oddball bunch of eccentrics united out of necessity manage against the odds to overthrow the powerhouse insiders to take the win, but doing so in an engaging and likable way. Deana of course was the star of the series but was backed up by the likes of Lydia who is one of BB's underrated stars, Adam, Luke and Lauren who were very rootable if maybe not allstar worthy and on the other side a good panto baddie in Caroline as well as Becky's demise which was a good story arc. Conor's actions and the 50k do spoil proceedings, but even then you could make the argument that the White room was the perfect ending to his arc, what better way for one of BB's biggest scumbags to depart then for him to pull off the biggest scumbag move in BB history to his best friend?!

All in all BB13 is a great series which has thankfully gotten more acclaim and I hope continues to do so, I'd certainly rate it as the highest C5 civilian series.

[Shaun]

adam was robbed though
luke a was a dull mess

[Jake.]

I didn't like Luke at all, just a bore

[uniquedude]

Great series, both BB12 & BB13 > BB14 though

Totally agree, bb14 wasnt trash but it wasnt as good as bb12/13. So overrated and it ages terribly

[Daniel.]

13 > 14 > 12

12 was horrendous, 13 was good and despite Lydia leaving too early the entertainment levels were the same and it probably has the best series long story arc.

14 hasn't ages well at all I agree, I just wish Sallie had stayed longer. I enjoyed it at the time but thinking back - not much really happened, pretty uneventful series

[Daniel.]

It really was fantastic.

Miss it too. :(

I loved it whilst it was on, glad it's getting retrospective appreciation.

Terrible series and the Deana love in was the most cringeworthy I have seen.

[Vladimir]

my favorite series tbh. there were literally no bores, except maybe Sara but she also contributed to the series.

That was a great eviction night.

A 4 way battle IIRC, Deana vs Conor vs Arron vs someone else.

The aftermatch was great, when Conor and Arron realised they weren't popular.

overall I didn't really enjoy the series as a whole that much, I found it to be overrated although there were some good moments.

I think the insiders vs outsiders story arc was one of the best house splits we've seen on the show as well, B Block vs the Whisper Club was good but suffered from B Block at times have issues with self-righteousness which was at times off-putting whilst BB10 gets harmed due to the arguably villainous group coming out on top, the outsiders however were perfect protagonists, the oddball bunch of eccentrics united out of necessity manage against the odds to overthrow the powerhouse insiders to take the win, but doing so in an engaging and likable way. Deana of course was the star of the series but was backed up by the likes of Lydia who is one of BB's underrated stars, Adam, Luke and Lauren who were very rootable if maybe not allstar worthy and on the other side a good panto baddie in Caroline as well as Becky's demise which was a good story arc.

THISSS!! Exactly my thoughts!

[andybigbro]

I e enjoyed all of Ch5s Big Brothers :D

[Daniel.]

This series is the best BB has been outside the trio of 5, 6 and 7 :clap:

Deana and Lydia are also the best c5 housemates

[drantb]

Had they produced it differently it would have been great.

The production/design/style was still very early C5 BB which made it unappealing to watch. They're slowly learning though.

[iRyan]

I loved this series. However I cringe thinking about Adam and Luke A as the final 2. I liked them at the time but in hindsight they were so ****ing boring and unmemorable.

[aman201]

I hated Conor, but the way he screwed Luke S and took the 50k was a great BB moment.

Irrespective if you hated him, which i did.

But, in terms of a TV moment it was one of the greatest moments in BB history, imo.

[Me. I Am Salman]

that was a horrible moment, you could tell he was heartbroken. and he wasn't even a bad guy

anyone who gained any kind of satisfaction from that is extremely cold

[Daniel.]

This series gives me BB13 teas

Anyone else?

[Doogle]

It was a flawless series. Other than Conor everything was on point

It was sad, but nonetheless great TV.

I think everyone played a part.

I hated Caroline, but without her the series wouldn't have been as interesting.

I agree, I don't wish Conor had not been there because he was important for the end result but I do wish he hadn't been rewarded or cheered.

Caroline was my fave :joker:

[Daniel.]

I miss it. :(

I miss legend Deana

So horrible how we went from top tier BB13 to BB13 in three years.

I've been rewatching BB13, got just the last week to go. It's just reaffirmed my opinion that BB13 was a brilliant series. :love:

[EspeonBB]

BB13 honestly felt so organic with the drama and house divide that has been lacking in recent series where production interfere in order to create manufactured drama (like in BB15 and BB16)

Definitely the best C5 series

[Marsh.]

I miss it so much. BB14 was complete garbage compare to it

This is why you're banned.

[armand.kay]

Bb13 is brilliant because producers barely interviened. This series was great because producers got a good cast, sat back and let the story develop. The twist they threw in was fresh and for once it tested the housemates involved in a new way.

[Marsh.]

Which twist?

[Daniel.]

It was the C5 answer to BB6 with all the rows, big characters and power struggles. I'm surpirsed you don't like it Marsh.
