Big Brother 12 | What Do You Think NEEDS To Stay?
 

Hi New Forum :love:
Oh my god, it feels fresh doesn't it?

Yeah.
Now all we need is the skin but James said it'll come soon, I think this week.

Anyway I have a question :love:

I think we've all established Davina McCall is not returning.
So if Big Brother does return, and we find out in a few weeks, what other things would you be REALLY annoyed at if they didn't make a return?

Like things that would probably put you off watching?

I'm fine with Davina not coming back tbh, it just depends on who replaces her.

The things that would seriously ****** me off if they didn't come back would have to be:

• Marcus Bentley
• Daniel Eatock's Eye Designs
• Launch Night Twists
• Big Brother's Little Brother
• Big Houses
• Element 4

Marcus is a legend and is the voice of Big Brother, who doesn't want him back?
People say 'Davina is Big Bruva' no... no she's not.
Marcus Bentley is a bigger part of the show, does he get credit? No the only sign of support he ever got from the world was when he was offered a bloody Jaffa Cake by John James.


Eatock's Designs, I mean they simply are an iconic piece of art.
People know STRAIGHT AWAY when they see them 'Oh that's Big Brother'.
Our Logos are the best in the world, Look at Australia's horrible eye brow, or BBUSA's House logo or the other countries who simply have a circle that says 'Big Brother' in it.

The Eyes usually give of a theme or tell us abit about what the producers are going for, and don't say they don't because they do.
BB7 - Swirly House
BB9 - Shattered House
BB11 - Goodbye Theme

etc


Launch Night Twists are a big part too. Honestly if BB12 does happen whether it's this summer or next I don't want to walk away from the launch the same way I did in June 2010.
I was like :shocked: I couldn't believe how rubbish it was and how pathetic the 'twist' was.
We need an original twist to get the audience hooked from the start.


BBLB, Now alot of people blame Spin Off's as reason for BB Failing.
I don't I think it's healthy to have them, Big Mouth is a disgrace and fell apart when Jack Whitehall left, BBLB amused me, where would it go though? Fiver?


Big House, I simply want a house like Big Brother 6 and Big Brother 7 where the layout was literally, it's hard to describe.. it was all one big room with the Kitchen joined on to the main area and the Living Area being separate in the garden and I don't mean like BB10's ugly house I mean like BB6s.
And a BIG garden too with a pool would be good, Do you think they would return to the main house we've used since 2002 since it'll be there until 2013?


Finally, Element 4!
What an epic song alot like the eye, it's iconic too.
I'd probably be pissed off the most actually if they changed the theme tune, would you?

I mean picture yourself sitting there in June 2011 [or 2012] watching the launch with your Pringles or whatever and the new presenter introduces the show with a one liner and then these new graphics come on with some ******ing American Soap Opera Theme Song played over them!

It would make me vomit and put me off the show right away.
Big Brother UK has always been a really fun show and Element Four is a fun tune.
It MUST STAY, They can remix it abit if they wish but if they remove it and bin it I'll ******ing cut Desmond's bollocks off.



So yeah main two things that MUST STAY for me are the Eyes and The Theme.

Sorry if that's alot to read, I tend to write alot when I'm talking about Big Brother as some of you may remember from the past 2 Summers.

Marcus Bentley
Daniel Eatock's Eye Designs [NOT THEM ****TY EYES WE GOT LAST THOUGH]
Element 4 Theme

Are the main things that I want to stay the same. :worship:

:joker::joker:

Because it isn't about Lady GaGa and because you simply cannot read.

Yeah, because I post that in every thread that isn't about GaGa and that second part is idiotic :rolleyes:

I didn't read, because you write too fucking much, as per

It's a Big Brother Forum, If you are not a fan then please go here or here.

Sorted.

Patrick, you just about summed everything up for me.
I do think the standard of material in BBLB and BBBM went down with each succeeding year. I liked it when they had more psychologists on.

There never was a good presenter on BBBM after Russell Brand left - or was was got rid of. Signs on it - look where he has gotten to now in his career - and the rest are just nobodies.

:joker::joker::joker:

Second link might have got rid of him for a while.

Problem is most will be under contract for C4. Marcus for example :(

But yes, I'd like Marcus Bentley (won't happen)
The music (won't happen)
Friday night launches
Daily highlights and live feed 24/7
Tasks that go through the night

WHY NOT? :shocked: :bawling::bawling:

Surely the theme isn't under contract?
I mean it was released as a single by Paul Oakenfold back in 2000, I didn't think it had anything to do with C4.

Oh dear!

Oh I agree with the over night tasks btw :love:

I'm not sure Patrick. I'd just assume it'd be tied in with some C4 contract. I'd love it to stay. It's what gets us all geared up :)

Oh and an eye. They'd have to keep an eye and the cheeky adverts teasing us :D

Not having the same theme tune would just be the worst thing ever, its too iconic.

Knowing C5 it'll sound like some **** weakest link theme tune. :bored:

Seen as BB fked up so much with C4, I think we need to embrace change.

I dont want all that back, one of the main reasons people didnt watch BB as much as they use to was because it was on so much on C4/E4 have the daily show yeah and BBLB every second day (Unless something major happens then have a late night episode after the highlight show)

Emma should present BB because she is loyal fan and is fun. She loves the show.
I Enjoy BBLB , its important for big brother to have a mini day-time show. I think they'd show it at 6pm after the soaps. I think George Lamb should carry on presenting it.
I Agree , i think marcus should return because he is the heart of big brother.
I dont really care , if big brothers big mouth returns because i dont think we really need it! If it did , I think they'd need a comedian to present it.
I dont mind about how big or small the house is but as long as its not as bad as BB10's , Im Happy!
The Music must stay the same.
Also the tasks must be as good as they were in BB11!

Yeah I agree with you Patrick, the essential things are the eye and element 4.

Other than that, they can change everything. The series needs a huge revamp. I think they should just start afresh. New house location, new presenters (even though I love Davina :() all that stuff. They should cut all the spin offs and just focus on the main show and pour money into that. Honestly no-one gives two sh!ts about BBLB (well I didn't anyway) and BBBM just failed when Russell left anyway. If this is gonna work, the changes need to be radical. People were bored with BB before. A reboot of the series might help change public perception of it.

Excellent Thread.

Would like Emma to present, and Marcus voiceover, but please God no George Lamb ever ever again.

Really excited about the possibilty now, its good to see all the enthusiasm on the forum for it all. Would be so amazing if any of you were to become future housemates, I'm not the type to do it, but I can imagine some of your personalities in the house, even though I don't know you personally !!!!

Agree with this.

If they do start fresh and you know completely and utterly revamp the format and stuff, would any of you lot still call it 'Big Brother 12' or 'BB12' if it seemed really different?

Or would you like think of it was 'BB1' or something like that?

I hope they don't change the show too much, like the main parts of the format that must be there are:


Nominations
Twists
Punishments
Always Being Watched
Tasks
Public Voting
Evictions


If any of those features leave the format then it's a bad move, but I'm all open for them to add some new ideas in or tweak it abit, for example: Changing the day of Evictions

[I would hate that to happen, Friday nights in Summer had always been Eviction Day]

Marcus is freelance, he can work for any broadcaster he likes;

The music can and if they have any sense will (assuming the show comes back) happen.

I just hope if Channel 5 do bring it on the screens again that possible vote to save rather than evict willbe the norm, also to make it that if a housemate threatens or asks to leave more than once,then on the 2nd time they are just shown the door.

Other than that its format was reasonable sound, the tasks could be more mind constituted but overall,its still a great idea.

I also agree someone like Emma would be good to present it,actually she was better anyway on BB11 than Davina was.
Eviction interviews could be handled better too, the last 2/3 years Davina let many off the hook a lot namely Lisa.

12.

This has got to come into action yeah.
The best part is [if this is true] PEJ won't be involved, Phil Edgar Jones.

That's the bastard that was responsible for robbing us of our rightful amazing finale in Summer by getting rid of 3 of the biggest characters in BB11 all in one night.

So Desmond may be open to vote to save actually.

Look at I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, CONSTANTLY provides amazing entertainment right to the very end.
Why?
Because they do a vote to save and the dullards who aren't doing anything are always voted off and in the end we're left with entertainers.

That's how a Reality Show should work.
