This series could go 2 ways.
 

Honestly I'm worried but excited.

If they do ****ty secret story type task for a week and that's it then I'll be very annoyed. We need something original and better than that. I really hope they surprise us but I get the feeling it's gonna be the same as last year :(

We need 2 houses or some sort of divide, not secrets like 'im a ****** lol xo'. That is crap and all this hype better amount to something decent!

And if they even try to bring Brian back, yeah I like him as a housemate but I will NEVER watch the show again..

im not going to lie im really worried if they dont get there act together.

I'd go as far to say Brian isn't coming back. I don't know whether they would put him through all this rubbish just to bring him back. Okay, if Brian was hugely popular with the audience, then a twist such as telling everyone he's been axed and bringing him back could work, but seeing as the majority of people are like "good riddance" then the twist would just be pure evil. Plus, I don't think Brian would put himself through all the rubbish just to be brought back... not after the majority of people are seemingly happy he's been thrown in the BB reject bin.

With the amount of hype around this secret and lies debacle, I really hope it is worth it. It's not just a twist that has been released, the WHOLE series has been sub-titled around it, the series is going to seemingly revolve around it, so if Channel 5 and Endemol have things under control - especially with a new boss - then they will pull it off well.

It seems they have pulled the stops out thus far though, totally refurbished the house, brought back live feed to a certain extent for the fans etc...etc... so it'd be silly for them to ruin the whole series by not carrying this hype out.

I want to trust them with it, but with the amount of crappy twists and stunts they have pulled in the past, I'm finding it hard to be like "I trust they will pull it off".

I was really thinking it had turned a corner until I saw the clouds- I know it polarises people some people don't mind some people hate them- but it just made me think here we go again. It sort of sucked the excitement out of me... I'm hopeful it'll be good but hmm

I understand the clouds thing, and I wasn't happy with the clouds when I initially saw them, but rationally thinking, the clouds are Channel 5's "house style", in a way.

It worked for C4 to do something different every year, but the clouds are just a part of Channel 5's branding, and I would imagine they will stay there for the foreseeable future anyway.

But, after seeing the BBBOTS studio logo today with Rylan and AJ in the picture, they work well. They work in the countdown adverts as well.

I think they're the best clouds we've ever had if that makes sense :joker:
They look more real and fit well with the lighter logo.

Love the orange bots studio clouds though! :D

I do like the orange clouds. They fit in, they're not just sort of just "there" like they have been in previous series'.

CBB9 was the worst. 'Oh, let's just make the clouds green and purple instead!'
