I have tried very hard to get into it this year but have so far failed. I'll admit I was, and still am, a huge Helen and Paul fan, but I really don't think that it is just that I am always comparing this years BB to them in some way.
I didn't really start to like Helen that much until the third week, however, I WAS completely hooked on last years BB after the first couple of shows. It didn't take me this long and it definitely wasn't hard work. I was hooked virtually from day one.
I just find the mix of people this year very juvenile and crass. They are so obviously wannabes and I think even if they had been given more tasks I would still be finding them boring. All of last years contestants I found interesting and even the ones I didn't like a great deal, such as Narinder, I still enjoyed watching and found interesting. I'm afraid I just don't find talking about who fancies who all day particularly enthralling.
I hope my opinion changes, I really do, but at the moment this shallow set of individuals does nothing to inspire me at all.
