Has anyone seen BB1?
 

Does anyone know which day it is when Caroline is really angry and she's punching the pillow on her bed?

Started rewatching it myself over the last week and it really could be anyday.

It's great to look back on isn't it

Really enjoying it. Have watched selected episodes of various series over the years, notably the Nasty Nick episode (but not the fallout and interview) from BB1, but this is the first time since it aired I've watched the series in it's entirity and I'm really enjoying it. They got so much so right in series 1 in terms of how the show was put together - both the highlights and the live shows. Indeed they weren't too strict about nominations talk until the Nasty Nick situation blew up - the show is surprisingly strategic in it's early episodes. The theme is also epic in series 1 - it's been toned down considerably over the years.

Just completed BB1 today. It drags a bit once Nasty Nick is done and dusted but the final is exactly what a final should be, not an attempt to kick out as many people as you can in an hour and a half. Each of the final three was given the time they deserved and it all had space to breathe. Also each of the finalists had actually earned their place there, not been gifted it either by being the producers favourites or being so insignificant they were always going to make the last day and finish 5th or 6th!

On the same count letting the show end naturally with fewer and fewer HMs is really interesting too - nominating when there are just 4 or 5 people in the house makes the HMs really evaluate each other, rather than just stick with their friends, and having so few people forces people to interact who hadn't earlier in the season. Mel and Anna and Darren and Craig are classic examples of this - numbers forces them together at the end and you get interesting relationships out of it.
