Big Brother 2024 - Launch discussion

[Mystic Mock]

Still waiting for some real eye candy … only Emma is ticking the box but she will probably get booted out early doors


Ooops hopefully I haven’t been too controversial on my return to the fold ..

I love interesting people but its nice to have a good looking lady around ..

I'm having to settle for AJ in that regard.

None of the actual female Housemates do anything for me in that area.:laugh:

I'm gathering that Thomas and Nathan are popular with the viewers in that area though.:laugh:

[Mystic Mock]

Sensed a small bit of chemistry between him and Emma then

Isn't Emma about 30 years older than him?:laugh:

Alright just catching up on the launch night episode so I hope to have a better opinion once I'm finished. First thoughts...

+ So far good job on casting the housemates. I'm liking more than last years.
+ Glad the launch night is live.
+ The opening titles are pretty great. Nice not having the housemates featured in them.

- The main show only needs one host. These two do my head in together.
- Let's go back to letting them leave the car and walking in without a pre-interview like the Davina days.
- Let's drop the theme tune being played over every housemate entering. Let's drop the 3D house graphics in the intros.
- Who let disney characters vomit all over the house?
- 16 housemates for a 6 week run is insane.
- The BB voice is just awful and so is him speaking in first person.

[GoldHeart]

As expected most of the housemates are in their blinking 20's, they've missed a real trick @ not adding some variety by adding oldies in . Why is BB so ageist :rolleyes: . Oldest person is only 50 something.

I actually like the twist ,Red team were getting cocky ..
thinking they were strength in numbers,most of them are such sheep ... immediately going to Red :joker:. Now they can stay in the non housemate section :devil: mwahah.

I know it can all change,and I know they'll be tasks etc where they'll be swapping around, and I guess nobody is safe re: first eviction . But @ the moment I'm glad Blue team are classed as ' housemates '.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Initial thoughts based on VTs only

Rosie - shouty mess

Emma - lovely teeth, seems nice

Segan -Good Christian lad

Nathan - Seems ok, politics will upset all the right people

Daze - Nope

Khaled - not feeling him at all, early boot

Martha - seems nice in an I'm bubbly, delf-depreciating and overweight type vibe

Lily - Just a young lassie but seems sweet/thick

Ali - sigh, no not feeling her

Thomas - Nice young lad (put in for his disability, not that there is anything wrong with that) and will be hard to nominate initially

Ryan - getting booed before he gets out the car tells me all I need to know about the vile stereotypical twats in the launch crowd- should be a good housemate

Hannah - bin

Izaaz - could be annoying pretty rapidly

Sarah - Nice farming girl, should be good value or annoying or both

Marcello - seems like an insufferable prick

Dean - bleugh

[Vanessa]

I really enjoyed the launch and I'm looking forward to getting to know the housemates. There are quite a few that I'm liking already. With Thomas and Ali early favorites.

[smudgie]

Oooooooohhhhh, I missed it.
Will watch it this afternoon.
Sunday is family day for us so it had to wait.
Not read al, the comments so as not to be swayed in anyway.

Hard to judge on launch night anyway, let us know your first impressions though

Now that I can get behind

[MTVN]

I've just caught up on the launch and think it was actually very good!

The cast seems nice and diverse with a lot of potential for drama from the different views and personalities. Theres a couple of ones who seem a bit bland on first impressions but most of them look like good characters

AJ and Will did well too and were noticeably more comfortable in the roles

[Niamh.]

Waaaaay too many ad breaks though

I agree with all of this!!

[smudgie]

First one far too shouty screams for me, hope she calms down a tad.

[GoldHeart]

That's what I hate , when I watched it on catch-up .I can only fast forward on the TV ...but I was in bed when I was watching itvx...it was like early hours of the morning,by the time I watched the launch lol.

[smudgie]

Just watched the last one going in.
Some bright sparks in there this year.
Deffo see a lot of clashes.
I noticed only one had the good manners to thank the door handler for opening the door for her.

To be honest that was a staged part of the set so there was no need

ie to make it look like they are "important people" arriving at some exclusive club

[smudgie]

Ali.

[GoldHeart]

Ali.

Yeah she seems decent so far , I like that she chose blue aswell...she thinks for herself.

I accept think that farmer lady on the red team should be punished some for her comment to the blue team !!

Big Brother had just revealed the cruel twist and she said something along the lines of “ hope your place isn’t too bad !” … assuming that the majority were safe !!

There were giggles all around after her comment

They definitely deserve a forfeit or punishment of some kind

Yeah, served her right for assuming :laugh:
Good to see you back Zizu!

I never watch the show while it’s on, too many ads.
I’ve seen it now but I haven’t a clue who I will like, it always takes me a few days before I know. But that Marcello fellow, nah! :notimpressed:

Not the trouserless David on Late & Live all week. Bloody hell! :inamood:

[rusticgal]

I like David…but the David we see on telly is such a louder and opinionated version of what we saw in the house.

My goodness he loves himself :rolleyes: .

[Strictly Jake]

I thought that. He said he loves all the drama and chaos on big brother yet I can't remember him bringing much to the show. That said looking back the series was pretty boring once Sharon and Lauren left

[Barry.]

Just catching up on this. Rosie is fine but a bit OTT at first glance and Emma? Seems nice. Segan seems lovely too

[rusticgal]

He was very tame in the house…he pretty much kept his opinions to himself and avoided any drama. Although I grew to like him…he was a bit of a disappointment as I thought he was going to be more entertaining and outspoken.

[Barry.]

Nathan I thought would have been posher but he seems fine just now. Plus he’s Scottish so that’s extra points there

I’m only on Khaled I thought we’d have like 14

[Barry.]

Ohh red or blue? I must of went to the kitchen when that was announced

[GoldHeart]

Red team are basically 'non housemates ' ,they have to stay in the storeroom, there's only 2 dreadful basic camper beds in there . Rest of them have to sleep on the floor :skull: .

Oh lol I guess that makes sense. I did say I’d choose blue. I’m on Ali just now and she seems nice too

[Barry.]

Ohh we are getting more disability people, finally! So far good mix just now but I want an older person in there

[GoldHeart]

Oh lol I guess that makes sense. I did say I’d choose blue. I’m on Ali just now and she seems nice too

Yeah she seems genuine . BB are going to make them do challenges to win housemate status,and swap between them. So I guess anything can happen, and anyone could end up being up for the first eviction.

[Zizu]

Yeah, served her right for assuming :laugh:

Oh that’s interesting and really puts the pressure on the housemates. I’m not angry at that twist

I've just made one, sorry but we've had a daily discussion for every series so far and I don't want that to end now

I also like looking back after the series and seeing which discussion threads got the most posts

A daily thread is great as long as it’s clear which one is the current one

Ideally put the day in the title …
