most of the time

Not really. I think if an argument comes along naturally, that's okay, but if someone sets out to cause arguments it comes over as fake.

depend though

People have been hand picked on C5 for the last 3 years. At least 75% of them have had media exposure.

But scripted is a whole different kettle of fish. That's what I am rubbishing. Ofcourse they edit it to suit themselves but the script stuff is nonsense.

When they don't stem from a task saying that Cristian called Chloe fat in a conversation with Joel or w/e

I'll be honest. I don't know what your referring to. I might have missed that episode but it still doesnt sound scripted...

Did i use the word scripted:conf:

They have manipulated, and in my opinion sent in HM's with an agenda (the old HM's)

It's all too contrived to be honest (imo)

And as i've said, i'm not the only person to think so!

Yes but not all the time.

Oh, I see. I got the wires crossed.

I totally agree with you that the "guests" were sent in with a script. Not an exact script but... you know. Definitely. IT's opened up the win for Danny... ffs!

:douf:

We are in sync this series Withano :douf:

I wish they'd stop sending people in - it flies in the face of the idea that these people are there to get on, or not, cut off from the outside world and public opinion. Allowing people in from the outside gives them the chance to change their behaviour based on what they think is being said about them outside.

I watch to see how people interact in a group. Bickering and the odd flare up that occurs naturally is interesting - setting up housemates like Helen and Marc purposely to wind housemates up, cause anxiety and mayhem etc. is destructive, cruel, disgusting and unpleasant to watch. Placing housemates under unbearable stress and then severely restricting their diets putting them on basic rations most of the time is, imo, unnecessary. BB producers need to be more responsibile for stopping situations before they get out of hand - Marc threw a sofa over with Joel on it for instance on tonight's show and nothing was said. Let Joel or Chloe do that it's a warning immediately.

I complain fairly regularly about the goings on on the house to C5 and Ofcom where I deem it necessary. The housemates should be treated humanely and with respect - sadly his is not always the case. IMO, we can't rule out long term emotional and psychological damage after leaving the show, only time will tell.

I really don't believe BB as a show is relevant for today's TV viewing - not in it's present form. It's no longer an interesting social experiment - it's become embarrassing and if I could I would have the show shut down for good.

Yes, but when they go too far (i.e Helen) I find them quite uncomfortable

That's my pet peeve. Ch5 have taken it to ridiculous levels.
