Really getting sick of these warnings. We all know that BB contains bad language etc. Seriously, we don't need warned after every commercial break..

So unnecessary.

They're trying to make the show like Geordie Shore more than ever.

It's because they've stopped doing them during the continuity announcement before the show. Why they've stopped doing this I have no idea, but I agree that it's getting annoying now.

It's so over-the-top.

I get it in specific episodes if something in particular that could cause offence happens, but every single episode?

I could deal with them if they were less OTT, though. "BEEEWAAAREEE" and "BRACE YOURSELVESS!" is unintentionally hilarious.

Probably worth it to make sure their ass is completely covered, its the most complained about show on television

"BEWARE!! offensive language!!!"

What's so frightening about swear words?

I think it's a given that BB will contain something offensive.

I don't mind it at the start, although after every break it does get tedious.

They really annoy the life out of me.

I wouldn't mind if it was just one at the beginning of the show but it's after every add break

I don't get annoyed there only about 5/10 seconds long

As with everything on C5 they're more tacky and over the top than anything, it's just embarrassing. 'BEWARE!'...what's wrong with 'Warning'? 'Brace yourselves' :umm2: this isn't a ride at Alton Towers it's a television show. And what's with the ridiculous exaggeration? Tonight's was a joke, going on about 'very aggressive confrontations' I mean hardly anything happened ffs, God knows how they'd have described Fight Night using this system.

I used to get excited when they'd have an end of break continuity announcement about 'very strong language' or something, these are just awful though. **** people who complain, I wish channels and even Ofcom themselves would stop pandering to people who shouldn't even own a TV in the first place.

I think it's worse that Marcus narrates it. His voice is just all over these days, he should've stuck to being the voice of BB. He's got his own personality over the last few years and that's not what BB is about.

I was thinking the same thing lily. Surely nobody lets their kids watch it. Its an adult show and those of us that watch it EXPECT nudity bad language etc. I am getting sick of it also and its also on a few times during BBOTS

Its because they love DA DRAMAZ and like to hype it up to get us all to watch (which is silly because people who will watch are already, and people who dont wont see em!)
