This series would have been amazing
 

If a few individuals weren't in the house.

It would have been such a change to have a peaceful series, I don't think it would have been boring but refreshing to have a calmer series.

It's probably one of my faves cast: Aubrey, Renee, Saira, James, Katie, Ricky and Samantha :love:

This series is basically what would have happened in BB17 if Marco wasn't evicted first.

Last time we had that was bb4 though, and we know how popular that is on here :joker:

This series seems to have been mostly arguments and such though which I dislike for the only/main focus of the show. Also a lot of manufactured dramas..as we always seem to get on recent BBs. I like arguments, pisstaking and such, but there needs to be balance with fun and NATURALLY occurring drama, none of this continually showing noms or 'guess which housemate said this about X' rubbish. Recent events have also lead me to believe that Bear is acting on BBs orders a lot of the time..the pie thing confirmed it for me tbh. It was just too...convenient.

I actually think marco would have mellowed out after the first week or so, definitely when he went into cold turkey mode, though thats really not something I was to see..I remember watching a reality show (I think on c4) where they filmed people detoxing from various drugs and it was horrific

That's a bit harsh. Marco was nowhere near the bore Stephen is. Marco just wanted to party all night long, yeah? Stephen, on the other hand, wants everyone to suffer if they're tired of having to pay attention to him.

Having a series dominated by one person is a terrible idea. They should have used the secret house tbh.

Not even secret, just throw the ratpack in there.

... turn the cameras off and forget about them! Yes, brilliant idea, Withano! :)

bear is just too exhausting, turning every conversation, every task, everything into his own showcase. and the constant baiting and taunting has turned the whole thing dark. hes sapped the energy and fun from the rest of the cast, like a tick
