Yes, I thought the HND was a totally unnecessary twist that brought in a group of pointless housemates that no one remembers. They had already brought 2 new housemates in with Aisleyne and Sam and that was more than enough.
Up until that series Big Brother usually had about 12 - 14 housemates. The 6th would have had 15 with Eugene and Orlaith, but the latter left and was replaced by Kinga. So 16 in total. That was arguably excessive.
Big Brother 7 had 21 housemates in total. Big Brother 8 had 22 (23 if you count the twins as 2). The show started to run for longer, so it is somewhat understanable, but this was when things started getting out of hand.
