And 4 weeks are not enough for all the characters to open up and display true evolution.
Take this current series for example, they are all there due to some "storm" and they got into arguments (OK, Natalie started them) about what they did or did not do, and their reputation.

Civilian BB is really the ultimate social experiment, even though it lost its spark for more "reality tv" scenes. But eventually it had to happen because young people now know reality tv, they were born in it, they know what works for the cameras. I believe up until BB7 people were more clueless about it.
And it's not just the UK. In France we face the same thing, and new shows like Love Island or more scripted ones took over.

Anyway, don't cancel BB!
