Time to fire the producers.

[Sawyer]

Bring back Shirley Jones (BB5, CBB3, CBB7) or even Sharon powers (BB6, 9, 10). Katy Smith the ****tards we have now are killing the show with this latest stunt.

[Me. I Am Salman]

let's not be too hasty, we'll see how the series goes

Big Brother at is core is no contact with the outside world. I have them the benefit of the doubt with live feed (another fundamental aspect of big brother- being watched 24/7) and never once moaned about it, putting it down to cost.. This just takes the piss. It's insulting.

[armand.kay]

Get some Americans in they know their ****.

If these rumors are true I hope its just another first week twist that gets abandoned before the first eviction.

[Rob!]

Bring back PEJ tbh :idc:

Let's not make jokes like that.

This.

[Glenn.]

Shirley Jones>>>

[Sawyer]

Phil Edgar jones would be good too. We've basically had the same execs since the move, we need fresh blood now. And some channel 4 DNA wouldn't go a miss.

[armand.kay]

They shold get new ones imo . I'm not against the idea of the show changing I just think they're going in the wrong direction atm.

[jackc1806]

Katy Smith worked on C4 BB too

[Jamesy]

Jeez, this series hasn't even begun yet. Everybody calm down!

Writing off the show before it has even begun is just stupid. All these news articles are over-hyped to grab attention. Secrets and Lies has similar news articles last year and that turned out just fine...

Contact with the outside world has been happening for years, even BB on C4 has its fair share of outside world contact. Nothing new at all!

Some articles do suggest housemates will have tablets to access social media, something we haven't had before.

You honestly thing BB is going to let them walk around with tablets all the time? They'd never interact with each other. It'll be more like "you win a power, you get to answer some fans on twitter". Chill out ppl.

Chill out ppl.I have to say I agree with both of you, I'm not written off the series before it starts, you can't believe everything you in the press.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I think the whole tablet thing is where a housemate or housemates may be able to win power to access a tablet to watch what the other housemates are saying about them?

Better than some ****ty house next door.

It would be fun if housemates were secretly given tablets to see whats going on in the house as a way of communicating with each other and spying but no access to social media of any sort!

As long as theres no social media involved or knowledge about the popularity of the the housemates from outside then I can work with it but it does get me seething when they go to far like Rylan leaving for rehersals or was it last year they told them who the public wanted to win ffs.

[BBDodge]

Bring back PEJ tbh :idc:

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

At least he engaged with forum fans.

[JohnnyBB]

NO WAY Noooooo Sharon powers she was the one who started outside contact with the stupid bus.

[karl100589]

People are complaining about c5s running of the show yet they gave us arguably the best celebrity series of them all 5 months ago.

[Rob!]

This.

I'm very excited about the new series. The communication with the outside world thing is worrying, but we don't know quite what it entails yet.

[Jay.]

let's not be too hasty, we'll see how the series goes

[2] Big Brothers not what it used to be, it has to change and it's obvious they are trying to be more like TOWIE etc. Doesn't mean it's less enjoyable imo. It's still really good entertainment.

[Jarrod]

Big Brother is evolving because that's what TV shows do naturally. They get stale and dry without a little bit of change.

I'm excited to see what they do this summer.

[DigitalSid]

PEJ's head of entertainment for Sky One now.

#BringBackJennings

I think this is a more pressing issue ^

[Marsh.]

The Linda Nolan series was "arguably the best Celebrity series"? :umm2:

I thought it was quite pants.

The fact you refer to it as the "Linda Nolan series" says a lot to be fair :laugh:

Does it? :joker: It tells me it was cack.

Pete Burns, John McCririck, Vinnie Jones series sh*t all over Linda Nolan. :laugh:

[Daniel.]

It was the luisa. Liz and linda series

The others were bores except Jasmine before Led

Did you really not like the last series at all? :omg:

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Channel 5 have given us some brilliant CBB'S and last years normal BB was the best since BB9 imo.

The producers however do seem to be very amature i don't know if that's fact or if its just a stigma they have they cant shake from BB fans.

They do tend to just make very simple stupid mistakes. Bringing back vote to evict, telling the housemates how popular the public think they are, constant prizefund twists and awful launch night twists that never work.

I just have to give them props for the amazingness of CBB9 and CBB13 though. They seem to be a lot better at producing the celeb series, Januarys had me hooked.

[Marsh.]

Did you really not like the last series at all? :omg:

Not really. I couldn't get into it.

A couple of good highlights shows about Frank Carson's dressing room but spoilt by being too repetitive and containing Lee and the two *****s.

[Marsh.]

I think the thing with CBB is that the channel 5 "cheap and tacky" side works for entertainment value, it's much shorter so less chance of getting boring and fans tend to care less about such strict BB rules/twists so just enjoy it for a bit of fun.

[Dash Darington]

First I've heard of this tablet thing.

Without knowing the details I'm going to assume the HOH will write a little blog about what they're thinking and what's going on in the house, and maybe answer some pre-screened questioned from viewers. Same thing BBUS has been doing for years.

[Glenn.]

NO WAY Noooooo Sharon powers she was the one who started outside contact with the stupid bus.

If you're referring to David and Lisa's trip into London then I have to say that was probably one of the most genius ideas ever. There wasn't really contact, they were in costume and the public had no idea.

[Rob!]

I dont think any of them were bores tbh, imo every housemate contributed to that series & that hardly ever happens!

[Jamesy]

I quite enjoyed the Linda CBB. Not the best CBB ever, but I found it more enjoyable than all the previous Channel 5 CBBs.

Although the whole Linda and Jim crap and Lee and toilet sex acts got boring. Can't say I was fussed on Jim winning either. He's not that nice of a man. If you've seen him on other reality shows you'll know how homophobic and racist he has been on TV before. CBB seemed to be a toned down version of him so he wouldn't appear as bad.
