Agree completely, thinking of how harsh BB was on the housemates in the past and then looking at this series makes it look so stupid. Remember when it was £1 per head per day- those were the days, now the whole house is getting £800something for the week which is absolutely ridiculous.

Thing is- this series had the potential to be extremely fiery and loud but Big Brother's been too soft on all the housemates, I think they'd have been much more ratty and argumentative if the food had been limited and now it seems like every week they'll win the easy shopping tasks.

I mean the 100 point one showed us really- the first day was completely irrelevent and it came down to the last 20 points in which Big Brother basically fixed it to give them a luxury budget. This may not be right but I think it's because of all this 'product placement'- Big Brother get's paid when supermarket product's are shown on screen so by giving the housemates a luxury budget this allows them to buy a heap of food and items in order to 'play' product placement as it's best [or worse].

The producers need to seriously take a look at this series and sort some stuff out like this because it's one of the major flaws of Big Brother on 5 at the moment.
