Small Things That Need To Return !
 
Small things they took away that could bring back the big brother feel -

Housemates taking their own suitcases in.
Chickens.
Vegetable Patch.
Saturday live task.
Gambling money on outcome of task.
60 second eviction countdowns.
Following presenter from studio to house whilst countdown is on.
Three strikes and out.
Frisking housemates on the way in.
Alcohol.

Small things but make a difference and made big brother years a go more serious and made the house seem more important and made the outside world more outside if you know what I mean.

NO Saturday live task. I hated them since we saw them the next day anyway. And NO to 3 strikes and out.

And the presenter should talk to the house from outside, anyway, so no to the camera following them from the studio.

Actual grass in the garden lol, I loved the wear and tear the BB7 garden had lol

JohnnyBB 13-04-2011 12:28 PM

what about 'this is big brother the front door is now locked and will remain locked untill the first eviction' :( they never say it nomore.

No electrical items at all..

None of this hairdryers/straighteners.

The earlier ones were much better when the only electric item they were allowed was the oven.

What about an actual weekly task?? That lasted 3 days eg. Pirate task, cops and robbers, innsomnia, bell ringing, olymmpics, 70s cafe

I agree with all of the bold. But not the un-bold. :spin:

Small things that need to be replaced are Live feed with the interactive choice of cameras.The option to actually choose the winner rather than the producers.One hours worth of hot water a day.The show being given back to the over 18s,please dont take this the wrong way but BB was always aimed at adults.If under 18s watch thats fine but no more silly entertainmet rubbish.The show is called BB.Live tasks were good on saturdays but with more money at stake then we need better games to play.Longer tasks for 3 or more days. Alcohol would be nice at times too,only more than a glass tho.

_Seth 13-04-2011 03:15 PM

The tense background music for when the evictee is walking to the front door and saying bye.

I'm only 13 but I agree with this completely.

Start aiming it at adults again instead of kids...

I really want this as well but i dont think they'll be able to do the interviews outside. Remember in bb5 ,when they were going to do the interviews outside every week but then cancelled it half way though because of the crowd noise. It really annoys me , that they wont do it , it worked really well in ubb :dance:

Mac Hiavellian 13-04-2011 06:13 PM

Bring back the chickens! Or give them another farm animal pet! BB4 was rumoured to have a pet pig

Bring back the Saturday Live Tasks! It's something entertaining after the previous day's eviction. BB3 and 4's tasks weren't great but the rewards/punishments were awesome. BB3's rich/poor divide and BB4's reward room. BB5's tasks were actually entertaining but unfortunately they were discontinued that year. Maybe with an increased prize fund the Live tasks will return BB5 style?

The psychologist shows that cover 2 days work of HLs. If BB is supposed to be going for 'normal' people again but still last 13 weeks it needs to make it interesting and the psychologist's can make us notice things we might not have noticed before. Plus if they're 'normal' HMs you can ease 2 days worth of HLs in to 1 show. BB8 failed to do this because they were mostly attention seekers.

BB to not interfere whenever anyone simply raises their voice! We want propper arguments again! Not for things to sizzle but then for everyone to sit in different rooms and then act as if nothing happened

Alcohol! Where would BB be without it? Jade's drunken fumble with PJ! BB4's Steph puking strawberries! Leprechaun orgy night! Pretty much all of BB5's parties! Fight Night! Makosi and Anthony in the pool! Kinga and the wine bottle! Yes, it's all trashy but it's all gold!

The mangle! That mangle's seen more drama than Arthur's bench

I want:
-Single Staircase.
-The Diary Room to have a dedicated entrance.
-Fluctuating prize fund (a la BB5)
-Tasks that span over a few days.
-The alcohol cabinet from BB5.

:love:

Agree with all of these! The alcohol cabinet was a good idea, at least in BB5 HMs could earn alcohol but they had to really work for it. In BB11 they got ****** all :(

Tasks that span over days, deffo!

No, only Becki and Marco had interviews outside (when they didn't make it to the final).
