Depends what you mean by exciting .....

The BB5 Final was highly emotional and, in those days, HMs had no outside contact, so their surprise on being evicted was genuine and complete .....

Nadia, as expected by all the bookmakers (she was favourite for six weeks) won Big Brother 2004 with 74% of the vote. She was greeted by an adoring crowd who chanted her name .....


I doubt that the number of votes cast has ever been surpassed :

Final vote breakdown:

4th - Shell : with 347,051 votes out of about 3.8 million votes between the final four at the tally point
3rd - Dan : with 685,995 votes out of about 4.1 million votes between the final three at the tally point
2nd - Jason : with 1,335,246 votes out of 5,198,942 votes between the final two at the close of voting
1st - Nadia : with 3,863,696 votes total.


As for viewing figures :

Friday 6th August 8.30pm: 6.0 million (28.2%). Peaked at 6.8 million (31.8%)
Friday 6th August 10pm: 8.3 million (41.2%). Peaked at 9.0 million (47.8%)
