I notice the editing/production are slipping into bad habits once again, so that's why I made this thread. It's SO frustrating because the cast are good and so are the twists, but the editing is so incredibly badly done.

Producers, PLEASE;

• Show us where an argument comes from, not just the argument itself, and certainly show at least a brief bit of immediate aftermath (ie. housemates walking off)
• Stop the montages and playing music over the top of everything. That's NOT big brother.
• Stop giving us the oddly-specific "warnings" after every ad break, it spoils any shock of stuff that happens
• Have ONE brief "in tonights show.." at the start and then leave it. Don't spoil everything before we see it
• Instead of having Marcus voice-over what the task entails, show us the HMs being told by the Big Brother voice.
• Essentially, stop the reality TV cliches, and stick to showing us an accurate depiction of the last 24 hours. That's what a highlights show should be.

It's nowhere near as bad as it has been in the past. Chill out.

It has been worse, but only slightly imo. They need to take it properly back to basics & edit like they did back in BB6. (with updated graphics ofc & HD)

It's not even bad

I think it's been alright? There's a lot to fit into an hour (especially with this messy bunch) so some of it will inevitably be rushed and condensed

Cant you just watch Channel 5 HD?

Also I think the graphics this series are great...The titles are amazing and even though they are still using graphics on the housemates names atleast they aren't the old shiny TOWIE style on screen name tags.

Edit: Im watching the episode as I was out and recorded it but yeah you do have a point about the music...Its not needed.

He was referring to BB6.

Have BB6 style nowadays, only HD and modern graphics.

Yes, this.

Pretty much, replicate the BB6 style of editing.. but obviously don't downgrade the stream quality or replace the graphics (which are actually an improvement). I didn't think it was a controversial idea lol

Although, I will defend BB6 graphics. They still hold up as better than some of the sh*t they use now.

don’t get why people always chirp in telling people to calm down when he has some valid points

-didn’t realise it was Marc and awkwardly looks around- a joke of course!

tea though the BB7 ones are amazing too, weirdly timeless and still modern today.

BB6 is notorious for just cutting to mid argument without showing where the argument stems from or even showing the aftermath...

In the days of 24/7 live feed it was less offensive than all that gets covered up nowadays.

BB6 would have looked sexy in HD tbf.

[Maru]

The production has slipped quite a bit I agree. Can't put my finger on it... but when I can look away for 15-30 seconds and have no idea what is going on, that's not a good sign... didn't have that problem during CBB.

Yeah I know but apart from the montages and music the editing really isn't that different. Theres not much that can really be done about important bits being missed out apart from giving us live feed. They can't just dedicate all of the hls to arguments so unfortunately sometimes the beginning or aftermath has to be scrapped

[armand.kay]

I think the problem is more to doo with the fact that theres no actual storylines yet so it just feels a lot more choppy

Thank you.

I understand my post might come across OTT/dramatic but glossing over noticeable flaws isn't good for the series.

It's really odd that there's been more music montages so far in each episode than there were in the CBB22 ones. I don't mind them, but only one at the start of the ep

The titles are OUTSTANDING though, without question the best since BB7 and in all honesty the more I see them they may end up being the best ever? They are SO slick

[JoshBB]

Oh, the titles are phenomenal. Might be my favourite EVER tbh. That's why I didn't include graphics as part of my critique

Looks like your source was misleading after all
