View Full Version : Apparently, I memory holed the last few seasons of the C5 era. Were they good?

OK, a bit of a weird one this... I was playing D&D with friends last night and it turned out that he had worked for Endermol in the C5 years on BB18. Now, I had said that I was a fan of the show but when I went to look, because I couldn't remember that season, I discover that I had never watched it. This confused me, because I thought that I had watched all the C5 ones...

So, I looked back and I realised I hadn't watched a few before that either... The last I had watched was Helen Wood winning BB15 (booooo0o0o!). But if you asked me I would have sworn I watched them all and have zero memory of boycotting the show or choosing to not watch it. was I so pissed off after Helen's year that I just sacked it off? I mean, it's likely, but I don't remember that thought process at all.

Admittedly, I was drinking more during those years.

So, my question here are 16-18 good seasons? I will watch them if so. I see Andrew Tate was in 17 and while I not a fan of his that could be interesting to see.

Input required!

I only watched a few of the C5 ones, one of which was BB17 and I thought it was a great series!

Helen Wood winning made it harder to watch BB after that. She and Bear are like male&female versions of each other's personalities. It's very uncanny.

Yeah they’re all good seasons imo. 17/18 probably a bit better than 16… and Helen returns in 16

14 and 17 were epic series IMO. The latter being my favourite.

I didn’t watch a lot of the C5 seasons because I was living in USA and then Australia and then Brazil and spent 6 months in Kenya.

I enjoyed 17 and 18, hated 16 though.

I missed most of the c5 ones... except BB19 , And I saw the odd episode of the time bomb. And I'm definitely not watching Helen Wood's year ,she sounded like a complete and utter horrible person. Judging by the clips I've seen of her , really put me off .

Not sure if I can sit through Andrew Tate's series. And I'm not watching the one with that Chanelle McCleary, sounded as if she was BB's pet with all the rule breaks.

I was contemplating watching the first c5 one ,was that any good? BB12 ? .

I was more casual with Andrew Tate's series due to personal stuff at the time, so I can't really comment on that one.

I ****ing hated BB19 though, what a horrible way for Channel 5 to end it's run, easily my least favourite year of any Big Brother around the world.

I honestly hated it so much that I started rooting for Hussain in protest.
