Robot Big Brother

Anyone else notice it's a voice changer?

Not a big fan of the voice yet, they sound like they're narrating a children's book.

I was thinking it sounds like Rob Brydon :laugh:

The voice is awful.

Miss the personality, my bf is a tv producer who knew a voice of bb in c5 days and it was personal. Worried they won’t feel comfortable speaking to a robot

Yes
they should tell us

[Crimson Dynamo]

Its like a knock-off AI

[GoldHeart]

Yeah I was wondering why they changed the voice.

[Oliver_W]

I can't remember in which thread but apparently the producers were taking a cue from the BB Australia reboot, which had the robot voice.

Tbh I can see the thinking behind it, with the consistent voice, and with BB as the autonomous ruler, and we never see the person behind the curtain.

an AI Big Brother, how iconic


AI is amazing :worship:

I don't like that BB has been given a friendly personality. He should be an entity; formal, authoritative and cold.

Big Brother in Australia sounded like Satan himself in series 4-6.

Dayum, the BB is a boss.

And that Jamie guy is hot.

I loved early BBAUS voice. I’m wondering if this will be consistent through the whole series. The voice changer system they’re using isn’t good. Hopefully someone at Endemol utilises these boards for input when they’re deciding on future changes.

They should turn the pitch down a couple of notches, and raise the bass.
