Default 60 Second Countdown?

I dont know how the rest of you feel but i prefer how the evictions used to be done. with Davina saying - 'Im Coming to get you' then 'Sixty Seconds' Following straight after it just added to the drama of the countdown and the rush of getting the housemate out. I Think the countdown beginning at the thirthy second marker reduces the tension . Also it was better when the camera followed Davina walking to the house talking to the crowds rather than just been on the house it jkust all seemed to work so well and i dont know why they changed it?
How do you prefer the evictions done?

I prefer the 30 second countdown. But one thing that does bug me now is how they announce nominations.

They now say 'In no particular order' as opposed to 'In alphabetical order', which sounded better, IMO.

Yeah 'In Alphabetical Order' is better I think too.

I prefer the "no particular order". Don't let anyone think they are off the hook.

'You have 30 seconds to say your goodbyes, im coming to get you!!!'

I wouldnt want it too change now i think it sticks better with 30 seconds & it gives them less time they are litterally gone as soon as its announced

dont you think though that starting at thirty reduces the tension it sounded better doing 60,50,40,30,20,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 You Have Been Evicted it was like Big Brother was in control of the evictions . when it began at sixty the rush was on. whereas now at thirty there is that quiet period of nothing

Where's the tension, they've already been evicted. Doesn't really matter imo.

I dont see the pointof Davina saying "Im coming to get you" anymore Because she doesnt go up to the door to collect them.

She said this in bb1/2 coz she literally did run all the way up to the house to get the housemate whcih was awesome

BB5 Had it spot on with Nominations when they would say..

'ThisIsBigBrother, this week there are 4 Housemates up for eviction, they are.. in alphabetical order..'

Which was good.
