In the later years of C4 BB, late entrants become a staple and in BB8/BB10/BB11 it felt like new housemates were entering every week. Do you think that Channel 5 BB needs more late entrants per series or do you like they fact they only stick to a few per series? (BB12 and BB13 only having 1, BB14 having none, BB15 having 3 and BB16 having 4 as opposed to 8/9 late entrants per series in the later C4 days)

[Pete.]

Yes if they are Harry Amelia and Sam Kay

[Denver]

I think we need more as the last few series we were left with a lot of unlikeable people

[Marsh.]

No.

We don't need immigrants in BB too.

[Jason.]

Yeah, but not too many. The amount we had in BB7-11 got ridiculous. Especially in BB8.

About 3 newcomers to enter around Week 3/4 in a 10 week series.

and I want them to enter the normal way too. I've noticed every newcomer on C5 has entered as part of some sort of twist which annoys me. Just have a normal eviction and leave room at the end of the show for the newcomers to come out of the eye and enter the house with their VT being shown etc.

One production picked newcomer should enter every Friday night for the first 5 weeks imo

[Mystic Mock]

That's the one thing that Ch5 shouldn't change as Ch4 would ruin their series in the second half by turning it into a brand new Big Brother.

What a silly idea

It would work well and ensure there were lots of good housemates left. And if the newbies weren't good they would just protect the originals from eviction (which I'm pretty sure is what C4 used to do anyway)

1st Newcomer - Day 8
2nd Newcomer - Day 15
3rd Newcomer - Day 22
4th Newcomer - Day 29
5th Newcomer - Day 36

It would work well

I'd say that it needs a new production team first and foremost, but I wouldn't object to more latecomers if they don't put loads of housemates in on launch night.

as long as they're good

Sam, Harry Amelia and Jem were all really good. I liked Zoe and Biannca too.

Pav and Marq flopped

Biannca should be put in as a late entrant every series

[Cal.]

If I was appointed producer you would all rejoice lbr

[Cal.]

16 women and 2 men in on launch!

5 women and 1 man in on Day 36!

I've ruined my own thread.

Well first of all, we could wish C5 would launch a Civilian BB on Friday again for those days to correlate (Day 8,15,22 etc). And I get where you're coming from, but dripping them in one by one every week is just messy. And 5 is way too many for a 9-10 week series given we usually get 16 housemates at Launch. And Week 1-2 is too early for newcomers as it's just too soon and we're still getting to know the originals. By Week 3-4, it feels more fresh putting 3 new ones in. Anything after Week 5 is too late, unless it's a 11-13 week series. With BB15 having the newbies enter a month before the final was too late I found, they should've entered around Matthew's eviction.

nnn

Not here for 5 fat bitches entering the same night that Saskia is unfairly evicted

[Jack_]

I miss the days when we'd get three newbies in week 3 and then another five around week 5/6 in a twist (like the HND), so I'd say yes

I find your ideas racist and insane.

If I was producer I'd immediately send Saskia back in and immediately evict Eugene.
