Help, it's back again! Heaven knows why millions of us get hooked on watching a bunch of sleep-deprived show-offs argue, flirt and sunbathe their way through the summer, but we do. How I dread that experience of gazing blankly at a screen wondering what some literally bored-to-tears housemate will do next, and yet every now and then BB throws up scenes of such screaming, comic strangeness that just for a moment, you love it. Yes, Davina McCall's a pain, yes, Geordie Narrator gets wearing, and yes, the whole edifice is pumped up to the point of horror (586 people now work on the production and its spin-offs), but summer would be duller without it. Tonight, Davina introduces the housemates, who walk past the placard-waving weirdos in the crowd and step, squealing for joy into their new home. Good luck to them.

Why is it scheduled for just an hour and 15 mins? Surely they need longer than that to get 13-15 housemates in and do a house tour and show clips and have 5 mins of live feed . Plus why are radio times so negative about everything, the only programmes that get off lightly with them are those produced by their parent the BBC .
