I just feel like it’s hardly been on. On todays show it was like Day 28. Thinking about the classic series back in the day the series were just getting started then.
There is also far too many housemates still in! Just feel it’s all seemed rushed! Hopefully next year, it’s on for longer!

Absolutely YES.
No I feel like it's taken up too much of my time as it is :joker:

Maybe we could have had another 2 weeks at least but I can see why it was so short for the first series with ITV, they clearly wanted to test the waters for it, I think next series will be longer.

But the classic BB7 was 93 days :flutter:
Yes. However, after looking forward to a nightly live feed, i must say i've been really disappointed with that.

Definitely needs to be a longer series.

It’s always good to leave people wanting more
I think for its return it’s been good
We have had plenty of drama over a short period

No I think this length has been perfect and well executed.

Most of the more interesting ones have left, I'm not getting much drama vibes from here on in. So the sooner the better for this one for me..
Na
I only really like Trish , Henry and Yinrun and all three are constantly being tortured in one way or another
The sooner that Olivia , Jenkin , Tom and Chanelle are out of my life for ever .. the better

Preferably yes, but the idea of watching the garden crew for another month does exhaust me

I don't think the current dynamics would work if this series was any longer. The house is too divided and it would just end up being miserable for the last few weeks

I think the length is actually not too bad, I think next time needs less housemates next time though

Good episode tonight. Tom Olivia Jenkins Chanelle Henry and Noky all came across well.
…nope, I really need to get on and do a few chores and see people again…

The decision by ITV to take on Big Brother was at the beginning of the year during which time they have had to custom build the house, audition potential housemates and fit the programme into their schedule which is decided many months in advance. I'm sure they'll evaluate the success or otherwise of this first series and it will almost certainly be longer next year. Don't forget there's also a celebrity edition in the new year so that has be taken into account too. My main problem with this series is the housemates, many of whom have had TV experience before, and the rumour that the housemates are being told what to do and therefore the show is partly scripted. Nevertheless I'm pleased it's back and I am thoroughly enjoying it, even more so if Yimrun walks out the winner.

No, I'm glad there's only one week left. I've had enough.
Yeah, I wish it was 2 or 3 weeks longer because in some ways it feels like the intensity of the dynamics have only formed pretty recently. It's crazy to think that in classic BB, Day 28 would still be relatively early in the game and now we are almost at the end.

Surprisingly, the length of it hasn't bothered me as much as I thought it was going to. It would be nice to have a couple more extra weeks but so far they've done a decent job of evicting housemates without it feeling too rushed.

I think it has been on long enough because it is too edited for my liking. I am glad the show is back but I want old BB back.

Longer the better for me I loved the three month series , it always ended up with lots of walk outs and new housemates though
I like that we have an all original cast

I don't think this selection of housemates are strong enough to carry the series. They need to get back the basics of BB and fix the live feed.
I don't think the HMs selected would justify a longer series tbh. Not unless they'd brought in new HMs. They needed to engineer drama just to create the meager amount of open conflict we've had thus far.
Just perfect … then k understand we have Celebrity Get Me Out and then Celeb Big Brother ?!?!?

and BB7 suffered for that, hence why they brought back old housemates. The last few weeks were really boring.
I think 6 weeks has been great and I like the fact we still have a lot of housemates left. They could stretch to 7-8 weeks but I think that's enough.
