The best part about Big Brother is the outlandish characters. Normal is boring.

I think Vicky means like people without agents.

If you look back at BB5, BB6 and BB7.

Three series people consider the golden years, none of those housemates [bar maybe one or two, if even] had agents or were offered onto the show.

Those 3 Series ESPECIALLY BB5 were packed with the best housemates we've ever gotten.

They weren't exactly normal, but they weren't already involved in the Media in some way or another where as tons of BB11 Housemates were.

Ben was practically asked to go on the show, as in skip the whole audition process and come on it automatically by a producer.


It ruins a big bit of the show.
It could be down to why the BB11 lot were so dull.

They didn't really want to be there, they were just invited on and paid no doubt.

Other Years, They all wanted to stay there because they fought through very long auditions to get there.

A celeb version should happen first as more people will watch that and c5 can proove they can handle the show. Also why dont they have some live performances, great way to boost ratings!

No.
No.
No.
No.
No.

NO! Why the in Satan's name would you ever want 'Live Performances' from ******ing talentless bellends like Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Bieber, Sugababes etc

These artists that seem to think they can sing because they top the charts now.

No.
I actually can't believe you suggested that.

Okay, yeah..

'Who's watching Big Brother tonight?'
'Oh God, I stopped watching 5 years ago.'
'NO NO! Katy Perry is on singing'

It's not X Factor.

I remember how much Ivana use to try and act cool by doing that Peace Out sign all the time, and it failed so much. :bored:

Tony1111 09-02-2011 10:11 PM

Well I can see the point of them showing a Celebrity version first merely to just pull in the viewers because Channel 5 isn't the most popular of channels but it'd have to be tabloid celebrities not the type of Famous and Fearless I don't mean to come across as bashing but I didn't particually want to find out more about the people on it.

2k9david2k10 09-02-2011 10:13 PM

yey hope sooo :D !!

joeysteele 09-02-2011 10:21 PM

I really hope it happens,It will do wonders for Channel 5 and its viewing ratings, no doubt on that one at all.

JohnnyBB 09-02-2011 10:23 PM

for some strange reason i keep thinking channel 5 will run big brother for the whole year, when they get the rights.

Shaun 09-02-2011 10:27 PM

Having a live performance on an eviction show might actually help, really. Can't do any harm...

I didnt mean normal as in boring.

There are plenty of normal outgoing people around. I just think the whole auditions stage is really pointless if 90% of the housemates are 'invited' to apply. And half of them end up being ****e anyways


And as patrick said also...bb5 6 and 7 were filled with 'normal' people...not many of those were boring? All three of the series were miles better than bb11, which was filled with people with agents etc.

Stu 09-02-2011 11:27 PM

No live performances, please. Keep the show pure and to itself. Live performances tie in with absoloutely nothing and knowing how clued up the pushing-forty-trying-to-be-twenty Endemol team are to popular culture we will get the same Big Mouth hipster douche Example alikes.

InOne 09-02-2011 11:40 PM

They have been on the verge of signing for weeks. Doesn't even seem like new news really.

Stu 09-02-2011 11:44 PM

They were trying to agree to terms. Now the terms have been agreed.

Will be interesting to see if anything more's said on The Wright Stuff tomorrow (though don't take anything that is as further proof, they're just as out of the loop as we are).

davidrox2010 10-02-2011 09:02 AM

I just hope that it means less spinoffs.
BBBM is enough. Then maybe we could have an interactive live stream like all the other countries have, brilliant ;)

And maybe change it to vote to save too, but thats just me :p

Nope, me too ..... :wavey:

Guys, it is going to happen. So, stop praying for it to be true. Trust me.

Beastie 10-02-2011 12:38 PM

The format should stay sort of the same.. with a few changes.

- I think BB needs to become more like a gameshow! Everyone involved. EVERYONE having to "play the game" to suvive.
- ALWAYS a vote to SAVE. Yes Desmond.. WE KNOW you will get more money if it's a vote to EVICT. However viewers will end up switching off if the entertaining ones get evicted early on!
- Back to basics?? NO!! Although I would love the chickens to come back :D
- More booze and parties!
- A big colorful, spacious house! Maybe with a few secret rooms? And of course the Diary room :love: and an epic diary room chair!
- Amen!
