Bitterly disappointed by BB Best Bits DVD
 

It arrived a few days ago so I'm now posting about it.

The DVD literally contains ONLY these:

• The Best Bits videos from BB1-10 and half the Best Bits of BB11 (up to the Glee task)
• Three full episodes (including opening titles and "stings" (time transition clips)) which are the BB5's Bedsit, BB9's shock task and BB11's Titan task episodes.
• Subtitle options

I mean what the ****? What a crock of ****! If you're a fan, get it, but if you're not and aren't sure then seriously don't bother.

tbh, it SHOULD have contained this:

• A few 5-10 minute clips for each series'
• The full best bits videos for each series
• High quality images of the eyes
• Interviews from people who have worked on the show + ex-housemates
• All the opening title videos
• Subtitle options

Thank god i never got it, its my birthday at the end of this month & was going ask someone to buy it for me, i wont bother now, thanks for the warning.

Yes, I have to say OI too am disappointed. Why did they end the best bits of BB11 with the Glee task. I was hoping for some footage of the 'Ignore The Obvious' task.

I would have preferred to have seen the fight night episode rather than going in the bedsit.

Would have loved interviews and as said above more time spent on the 'best bits'

If you missed this the first time around, here it is again.

Why did they end the best bits of BB11 with the Glee task. I was hoping for some footage of the 'Ignore The Obvious' task.

Sounds crap, I'll still probably get it just as a piece of memorabilia though.

If you ask me there should've been one episode from every series, all the full lenth Best Bits from each series, and like you said, interviews with the staff and ex-housemates [they could've just included the 'Inside Story' show that was on before the BB11 launch].

Does it have "uncut" bb5 fight night

Well this is channel 4 so what did you expect really, Just a cheap way to make money. I will not be buying it.

It should of just been an extended verison of that show the showed before BB11, Big Brother Exposed: The Inside Story.

We never get to see any of the final bits from each series, those of the last day each year, that would have been something to get excited about too.

Because the idiots made it before BB11 finished.
Nah whole episodes would be a waste of disk space - a few 5-10 minute clips from all the series' would be better.
No. If it did, I would have posted it in the list of what it contained. :rolleyes:
Nah I would have wanted Best Bits videos as well.

Someone with tapes needs to
do Computer transfer DVD or a stand alone unit
and sell it on Amazon and Play.com


The Fight although bad,
is part of the Ch4 Errors (they could have stopped it Early with Security)
of this show
and need to be on a Collection.

Well it could of had the best bits as well, but that documentary is best I have ever seen on Big Brother.

been clearing out a bedroom today - came across my video of series 2

all I need now is a video player :hugesmile:

Thats sh!t.

I'll give it a miss.

See, that's why I wouldn't buy a 'best bits' vid. Best bits are subjective imho and unless they've consulted a cross section of fans then the vid is going to suck. Thank goodness I haven't wasted my cash! Thanks for the warning OP.

There's nothing on that DVD you can't get in 5-10 minutes of efficient internet searches.

never been able to find 'fight night' in FULL anywhere on the net,bit of a glaring omission from the set i reckon..

Agreed. If they wanted to make money they should have gone with the exclusive rare bits, not the vids so common you can find them on youtube.

To narrow down Big Brothers' best bits to just three episodes, two of which are from recent series' is just awful, I say either have one episode from each series, or re-release the uncut DVDs from 2000-2003 and also 2004-2010 for the first time. I think uncut DVDs were not released for the 2004 series and after as I suspect the 2003 uncut DVD didn't sell well.

Yeah but it'd be better to have some clips from each series in delicious high quality. :love:

I wish I had saved my £5.99. It is shockingly bad.
I was expecting interviews and stuff but there was none.
I would have loved 1 episode from each series instead of 3 random ones.

These are the ones they could have had.
BB1: Nick getting found out.
BB2: Brian's Birthday.
BB3: Rich/Poor Divide.
BB4: Cameron Goes to BB Africa.
BB5: Fight Night.
BB6: Jacuzzi Night.
BB7: Nikki Returns.
BB8: Charley's Fake Eviction.
BB9: Chilli Task.
BB10: Issac enters the house.
BB11: Super Heroines Task.

My heart actually sunk when all I saw was 3 episodes and all the best bits... I was like, there's got to be a hidden option or something.

As far as the full episodes included go,Going INTO the bedsit (bb5) ?? WTF?,its when they got out we want - ie. 'FIGHT NIGHT' !!
It all sounds very based around the cheese on this,the 'funny' tasks,as oppose to any controversy.

Dosent sound to good, but lest you can buy other big brother dvds and vhs from amazon, the BB2 dvd is a good laugh.

I think I recorded the LF on video.
