Freaks or normal people?
 
Both can be very entertaining.

Freaks gave us series' like BB5 and 7. Normal people gave us series' like BB1 and 2.

With normal people it could backfire and be like BB4, but with freaks it could make the show look pathetic. =/

I dunno what I want. I thought BB10 had a good balance, but BB7 was just so amazing. I want extreme characters like Lea and Nikki - they'd have never made it into BB1 or 2. =/

Normal people who arent total bores.

Sick of the freak show

But you loved BB5 and 7. It's a bit of a grey area. =/

BB5 was normal people. The only one I guess who could be classed as a 'freak' is nadia but only because she was different. Edit. And probably marco :laugh:

And I didnt think much of BB7 tbh. Much preferred BB6 :) Normal people mostly, but dickheads.

90% Normal, intresting people.
10% Intresting freaks.

_Seth 09-05-2011 03:06 PM

60% normal, interesting people.
40% freaks.

I really dunno...

Normal people, buck the trend of having freakshows on, if it doesnt work then they can do the next series full of freaks.

Beastie 09-05-2011 03:09 PM

Freaks and normal people.

We had a house full of "normal" people in bb4 and that was a bit of a bore.

Just want a house full of strong, selfish, carefree characters. Like normal type party people.. as well as a few freaks.

They need to do what TRW does, and find 15 18-25 year olds that just want to party but also have a story to tell.

The first series needs to be good, we can't risk another BB4, because people will base the quality of the C5 version on the first series. So 10% intresting freaks, 90% normal, intresting people.

normal people that are up for a good time and want conflict but also want to win the money so we dont have a million walkers

Yeah but if they put in freaks theyre just copying C4 and they wont get the ratings they need...

Yeah, correct. But we need a mix of people, not all young.

They won't be copying anyone, like I said... We need a mix, but more normal people.

Why?
Its never worked in the past, maybe Derek but that was more because he was posh not old.

There's now £500,000 at stake. 5X more than C4's prize fund... We won't have as many walkers :)

Beastie 09-05-2011 03:15 PM

BB9 had relatively normal people but with a few freaks like Darnell.

I agree with Vicky that BB6 had "normal" people but they were pretty much all dickheads. We need a mix like this.

I just wanted some foooooooking entertainment man!

_Seth 09-05-2011 03:15 PM

We definitely need diversity in terms of age. BB has never really been good at that (in most countries, it seems).

Because alot of the fans want a mix of people, not all just young teenagers.

12 normal people + 4 freaks

Something like this.

CharlieO 09-05-2011 03:48 PM

Depends what you can class as normal. We need a nice mix of subdued people and a range up to and in-between extroverts.

Daniel McIver 09-05-2011 03:50 PM

Normal People , BB10 was a freak show , it was awful!

Agree with this.

Jordan. 09-05-2011 04:25 PM

Normal people but no bores.

We need people who are bitchy, arrogant, game players etc but still likeable.

Throw a couple of freaks/misfits in there and it'll be epic.
