For me there has not been a BB to match BB2. It had everything - fantastic selection of housemates - the others have tried to copy since. I think in a way the mixed bedroom has been a mistake - the single sex bedrooms led to such things as the rice throwing, teasing Brian about how scared he was about the men behind the mirror, the conversations that would never have taken place if they hadnt been separate. We even had the 'mad' one who couldnt cope - who could forget Penny when she lost it. We had the boring mother and father in Elizabeth (in that pink jumper) and Dean and we had the bitchy Narinder, plus Amma and her farting. All repeated since.

The singing accompanied by Dean's guitar was something else. Never knew so many people could sing so out of tune together. Remember their version of Old McDonald Had a Farm.

Brian and Josh on their dinner date with Josh winding him up. Poor Brian he didnt know what to do with himself. Oh I could go on and on. Even the arguments were funny in their way. I'll always remember Stuart's wink to Paul when he was 'making up' with Penny. That gesture was worth a thousand words.

We may have had 'isms' since, but Helen was the first - I like blinking I do, is there chicken in chick peas, can you eat cock plus of course the OHHHHH MYYYYYY GODDDDDDD.

But for me of course it has to be Paul and Helen. How many nights did I sit in front of the tv by myself with tears of joy running down my face. Too many to mention. But the whole of the last day they spent together in the house summed up the relationship they had there. No 'romance' in the house has come near this. Although Chantelle and Preston pretty close.

Those were the days when the housemates worked together, played together, argued together, suffered together (when they lost their tasks which really meant something then), played together and made this the best BB ever.
