A huge advantage of the recent cut in series length should have been the opportunity to reduce to a more manageable number of contestants - 12 would be more than enough for an 8-9 weeks series (10 was in the early days!). I just don't get why C5 basically cast a few star housemates and then a bunch of extras - especially on Celeb BB where they're paying them massively overinflated fees. Less HMs is actually more interesting to watch, especially towards the end when they're forced to live as one small unit of 4-5 people rather than a group of 6-8 who can still split into cliques.
