Davina's milkman
Dreamboats from other reality shows.
anymore.

The show went down hill in my eyes when, after Gay Brian and the Portugeezer won, Endemol started to lean towards that market and fill the house with gays and bisexuals.
Now there have been some good gay characters in the house....Brian was and so is Charlie from this series. But many have been prancing mincers that just dont attract viewers like ordinary folk to the show.

Endemol have also been preoccupied with getting a 1st time shag on TV and have geared things towards that. Its pandering to voyeurism.

Then there is the attempt to tit-a-late the audience by putting in see through showers and people who say they are daring and will go nude but then end up keeping all their clothes on in the showers. Sophie is in there as a full frontal nude model to generate viewers but like Saskia before she has become shy once in there. Her place could of gone to someone will more of a personality and made the show interesting.

For BB to survive and raise its audience figures it needs to go back to selecting ordinary people and just seeing how the BB experience changes them over the weeks. That is what the whole show was about. How ordinary folk cope in an extraordinary stressful environment.

They need to put in normal people.. I want to audition but even walking into the audition process I will automatically have a disadvantage cos I'm no way related to BB

Exactly. People need to be made aware of this before they fork out money and travel expenses and effort to go to auditions.
