I have missed the first few episodes
 
Can someone fill me in on what's been going on? Is it good? What is the editing like? Is the alcohol flowing?


No phools to reply please :suspect:

I actually have no idea whats going on.

The highlights show hardly any footage.

Feel very out of the loop.

Jedward had a bath together; Paddy is hard to understand and struggles to understand everyone else which is probably just as well; Tara sounds like she's on drugs; Amy has a basic vocabulary of about thirty words and fills in the gaps with the word "honey"; Kerry failed her task of being a Diva and is up for eviction; she chose Sally and Bobby to be up with her; the Pap man had a birthday; no one's said anything interesting or amusing; there is no live feed.

That is all.

No, no birdsongs. Shame really, because it was more entertaining than a lot of the "conversations" I've heard.

I think Sally's doing her best to improvise that one.

It's the best series since 2008.

Marc 21-08-2011 11:47 AM

Everybody hates the editing and the music etc.

It's kinda flopping Joe :(

It's only flopping on TiBB because the majority of you lot are afraid of change, and I wouldn't call a peak of 8 Million - and average of 5 Million for a launch show and the highest rating series since Season 9 - and probably the most talked about since BB7 - a flop at all.

MeMyselfAndI 21-08-2011 12:10 PM

The Peak was 6 million?

Anyway i like this series. Everyone has done something interesting/ are entertaining apart from Bobby & Pamela.

If this series was exactly the same but on channel 4 it would be below 1M. only got good ratings for the launch because people was curious & it had big celebs rumoured like charlie sheen.

It's dire. The editing, the truly special effects, marcus & BBs attitude & no livefeed. Nothing has changed for the good.

I think you'll find 8 Million peopled tuned in for more than 3 Minutes, the peak was 8 Million.

Good God.

You lot have been crying for a 'revamp' since BB8 - and they gave you it and now it's not good enough? Cut them some slack Jesus Christ.

I'm not big on the whole editing thing either and the music and stuff, but so what! It needed to evolve and I've counted people on this forum that use to slate the C4 show and say how it needed to be more current and modern, and now it is and then these same people are still crying over it.

Yeah - Tara and Kerry were pissed the other night.

It's just we don't really get to see them pissed because of the live feed being axed.

daniel-lewis-1985 21-08-2011 12:19 PM

They have been given alcohol but we havnt seen any of it.

What has this series gained that we should be so happy about? The only thing it's gained you say you don't like & we've lost the livefeed, I don't see the improvement.

Exactly right.
I ask everyone to imagine we never had the false farewell and your television said 4 instead of 5.
You just know you turned on Big Brother as you have every summer.

All you would think is that C4 really dropped in quality, production values and all the people you liked are gone (Davina) or are doing a very poor job (Marcus) and generally the whole thing is much worse than last year.

And somehow duller in terms of actual substance. Yet somehow more annoying with dramatic music. And somehow gayer.
And somehow more '5 years ago' than before.
