I know I'm moaning again, but we keep losing interesting Housemates in favour of Showmances.
More popular Housemates with the public are being edited out in favour of these Showmances. The show also should've made sure that one of Arthur or Sukhvinder was around by week 3, Imran is also more interesting than Rebecca. Imo if Rebecca had've gone tonight then we would've started the process of wiping out the Showmancers, but instead we've still got the four Showmancers still in there because of some stupid split vote between Sukhvinder and Imran. How do the producers fix this show? Imo they need to start showing the others more, and maybe get in a couple of new Housemates (which I don't normally recommend) to maybe liven this series up.

You're not alone in thinking that, thats how #teamgrumpy was born.
While im not against them in (restricted) moderation, when you have almost the whole episodes dedicated to them it can be annoying especially as you say, other entertaining housemates highlights get left out. Last edited by Lstan; 16-06-2017 at 09:57 PM. |

Then if you like you can join us if you are not already a member
![]() There are so many other shows that do the whole showmance thing its annoying, I remember old BB that didnt have any showmances (or maybe one at most) but thats like going back a decade. That why we started getting grumpy with it. Like other members have said it all feels scripted too. Awful *tut tut* Last edited by Lstan; 16-06-2017 at 11:29 PM. |

What can you do if two housemates leave on their own free will?
Vote to save was a good idea preventing from big characters to go.

The Sukhvinder one could've been avoided if the show wasn't so obsessed with showing Rebecca all of the time with her thing for Kieran.

Mandy could have been good...but she wouldn't have caused drama. I liked Arthur but he had no support and ended up isolated and it became uncomfortable to watch. Imran and Sukhvinder were on a mission...they had a game plan and the minute one of them got kicked out the other was always going to follow. They played chalk and cheese and I for one didn't fall for it. Sukhvinder saying she doesn't like confrontation in her interview
![]() Get some new housemates....and no showmance wannabes. I just wish BB would give airtime to the less confrontational ones...and give us a fair shout. |

They just let it play out, with longer cuts and real human interaction. They also bring back live feed 24/7. In short, they stop trying to control it and lie to us. |

Yup. Whenever they try to do something it makes things worse. So 2 big characters have walked, and the first 2 evictees aren't to peoples tastes. Its not the end of the world. A couple of newbies (with NO connection to existing housemates) maybe to replace the walkers. But less 'trying to fix' things please.

Also since the start of the show there has been ridiculous focus on romance. For some reason viewers (outside of the forums) seem to love it

I don't think it's dead yet but I'm curious how will things play out now that the couple that provided a lot of drama have left. It may become boring and insufferable or maybe there will be more fun and genuine moments showed in the HLs.
I also hope that the new housemates are interesting and not just housemates' exes/enemies.

BB can't do anything about walkers.
But they chose vote to save and viewers didn't want to watch Mandy and Imran. Dull evictions for dull housemates. What's left is NON-showmances. Lotan doesn't want Ellie, Kieran doesn't want Rebecca. No-one wants Tom. |

Can you tell the BIB to Ch5? As they don't seem to get it.

This series is hanging by a thread and I could tell by Emma's interview last night that even she being a fan like all of us first and a presenter second that she is worried.
It is as if Channel 5 are deliberately trying to sabotage the civilian Big Brother and subject us to possibly 3 series of celebrity big brother. It is overkill. |
