Firstly there's honestly no need to take a rude tone with me, this is an Internet forum where we're both entitled to our opinions and I respect yours, fully.
With that said, I know what the yawn was for... But you're mistaken in believing that the HL shows are edited for 'our entertainment' and not for sheeple control.
There are
many things which at 2:30am I can't be bothered to think, which have happened throughout the past 9 BB's which were extremely funny, entertaining and not in the least unsuitable for Television either before nor after the Watershed but never once made it, to the HL Show.
They focus on situations they want you to see, to better a certain HM or make another look like a complete W^&$er. That's a fact and probably (I'll use your statistical number here) 97% of BB's loyal viewers know this.
As for your final comment, you have a point on that, granted. What I mean is they began to drop when things like planes and birds along with close ups of garden plants were introduced even when nothing bad/wrong was taking place (mainly 'interesting bits' they could save for HL shows) - The Freeview viewers lost 'interactive' altogether, Freesat the same as well as the removal of the Internet feed and when they began to chuck in adverts even on the R.B.L.F when E4 had them which was not how it was to begin with.
They have been slowly but surely diminishing the entire premise and concept of what "Big Brother" is supposed to be which as StensionHouse puts it, in their Youtube account

Endemol lay down the premise of BB here: http://www.endemol.com/what/big-brother.html - As is clearly stated, the whole point of the show is that the housemates being watched and their actions broadcast ROUND THE CLOCK. Not for 45 minutes once per day in an edited highlights show.

So yeah... The viewing figures [For the HL show at least] began to diminish from those points onwards.
