Sorry jog
but I soooooo disagree. I don’t think there has been very much ‘real interaction’ at all. There has been a lot more bitchiness – which I don’t enjoy watching – and there has been so little for the housemates to do that their interaction with each other has been minimal. The infamous bars also didn’t help in this – separating the housemates into two distinct groups made it much more difficult for them to interact with each other and made the whole BB3 experience so much more ‘bitty’.
I don’t actually think that any of the characters, apart from possibly Alex, are interesting and I certainly wouldn’t call them ‘strong’. They have a much ‘younger, brasher’ feel to last years and are so obviously all wannabes – despite denying it hotly.
I have got into it more now, but I honestly think that if I hadn’t been helping to run this site I would have given up at about the end of week 2 – I was so turned off by it all.
Also, sorry, but I’m a HUGE Paul and Helen fan as well, it really made the series for me last year. I didn’t dislike Brian, and he was a worthy winner, but it certainly wasn’t him I watched it for. Anyway, I guess we have to agree to disagree on this as not everybody has the same tastes, but I would only rate BB3 at about 4/10 whereas last years would have got at least 11.
