Little things that you want to change/bring back for BB17?

[Headie]

Basically a thread for little things you want to see on the show but wouldn't actually impact the show that much :laugh:

Mine would be:

-Isolated stairs
-Housemates all have to sit in the living area whilst nominations are happening in the Diary Room in private (I liked this cause it often built up tension and made the nominations more interesting to watch)

I'll probably think of more soon tbh :laugh:

[Firewire]

I like those

Also, nominations in alphabetical order as well

[Dominic]

Big Brother saying '_, you have been evicted', and counting down before it. Not Marcunt.

[Headie]

^Yes to both of those :clap2:

-And having the tension music when HMs are stood at the doors waiting for the doors to open rather than sirens
-And the doors opening randomly/after the main house door is closed rather than a countdown

[Oaker]

Davina style intros on evictions.

CBB17's ones were great but they need to do it on both shows not just the second one.

[Cal.]

No on-screen name tags after the first week. It's unnecessary.

[Cal.]

The Previously/Coming Up segments could be shortened to like 10 seconds each. It's like a minute and a half of graphics and screaming before the episode actually begins.

This!!! It condenses the whole episode into like 2 minutes so there's hardly any point in keeping watching

[Greg!]

No more tacky editing please @God

[Pete.]

Good housemates

[Greg!]

Housemates who are guaranteed to clash eg. A radical vegan feminist and a sexist old man so they don't have to rely on tasks to cause dramz

[Oaker]

No dramatic music when housemates are nominating.

Yeah this won't really work if it's C5 we are working with

A 5-7 minute live house tour on Launch Night. None of the pre-recorded crap or just showing stills of the new house via the screen outside etc. BB14/BB15 had a nice C4-esque house tour but in the last few series including CBB, there hasn't been one.

[Morgan.]

I would like to see the housemates writing and debating over the shopping budgets again, it always used to be an enjoyable segment for me. Again, this could cause drama other than production generated arguments from tasks and twists that aren't needed.

Oh, and a less cheesy, more professional BOTS setup.

[Marsh.]

Sack Rylan and replace him with Iain Lee.

[Jason.]

Oh yes!

Bring back the shopping list and blackboard and chalk - most of the iconic C4 arguments stemmed from the shopping list. The iPad sucks and you rarely see them ever doing the shopping list anymore.

Also cigarettes and toilet roll to not be handed out whenever they run out and should be ordered from the shopping list as the housemates rationing out ciggies and arguing over them or having a break down over having none left was quality. I miss little things like that.

[Headie]

The Previously/Coming Up segments could be shortened to like 10 seconds each. It's like a minute and a half of graphics and screaming before the episode actually begins.

When the coming up clips would just be 5 seconds long and completely out of context but made you want to watch anyway :flutter:

[Headie]

Also - revealing nominees in alphabetical order!

[Strictly Jake]

Basically I want the bb6-bb9 days!!

[Marsh.]

Can we just have BB6: 11 Years Later please? :hee:

[Strictly Jake]

Can we just have BB6: 11 Years Later please? :hee:

I'd love that. Imagine that cast reuniting!!

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

More LF
Get rid of names tags
Watch more of task on HLs not speeded up version
Watch them do shopping list on blackboard not on tablets
Have more varied HMs not media savvy ones who are there to further modelling careers, people who are there for the experience

[Headie]

I would love for them to bring back Diary Room Uncut episodes and put them on 5* or something (altho idk if that's a small change or not)

Also they should bring back Dish on the Side! They didn't do it last year did they?

[Denver]

[Mrmattybeck]

Basically everything we loved on c4 [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]

Tasks which aren't "eat something disgusting" or "who said what"

[Greg!]

They should make Dish on the Side a weekly half hour show tbh

[Strictly Jake]

I'd love to see tasks like the box task(bb6 one not the crappy supposed twist on launch night of the last cbb, which I thought was going to be that task again and Gemma was going to be shoved in a box and I was hugely disappointed but anyway) or room 13 was it called where only maxwell had to do the tasks even though he thought the whole house was doing in

BB6 was so incredible!

Davina style intros on evictions.

CBB17's ones were great but they need to do it on both shows not just the second one.

I think what CBB17 did right was the 2nd eviction show. I complained about it at the time at it being too late. But i liked the atmosphere.

Is it just me, or did Jeremy's eviction feel very "CH4 era"? Just me? It felt really well done. Maybe it was the tension of it being them 2 facing each other or Emma's announcement from the garden. Good to see it did the best out of all the evictions during CBB17. It really piqued people's interest that one.

[Jason.]

I loved CBB17's evictions. They all felt very C4 era to me. Well the Friday ones did anyway.

I wish they'd announce the result at the end of show 1 though. That would also be good for ratings instead of making people wait half an hour to find out. If it's a big character, social media will be all over it and more people will be inclined to watch the second show to see that person come out.

[luvjustin]

I'm not totally looking to recreat ch4 era but I do miss them all gathering in one spot for nominations. It creates a lot of tension.

[Headie]

I want the white backgrounds to return for the HM pics!

A must.

[Headie]

Stop the ugly name tags pinned to the HM's clothing on launch night!

[TomC]

one from me is do NOT reveal which HM received the fewest/most votes. Hate it when they do that.

Any chance that these threads could be merged please? It'd be a shame to see the suggestions in the other one ignored :)

Yeah I want the white backdrops to return too (but the post-BB14 ones with the backdrops using the eye theme haven't annoyed me as much, the ones with the glaring brightly coloured backdrops were awful though).

[Greg!]

No mental dance music morning montages at the beginning of every episode

[nonstop]

- the steel fencing with barbed wire
- black car entrances
- no CATWALK
- No Ibiza 721 music
- A radical change in layout
- a new crowd

[drantb]

No music (apart from the theme or anything played in the house)

The narrator only given the task of announcing day, time and a minor introduction to what's happening within the house.
