Just imagine putting up with Nikki's tantrums for a SIXTH TIME!?

And Aisleyne's bad enough once, let alone three times.

Helly Woo Woo returning to terrorise once more <3

The only time I want to see Helen and the word 'terrorise' in the same sentence is hearing she's been the collateral in a new ISIS attack.

I hate her that much I'm willing to go that low.

[Visage]

I can't figure out what it all means.

If they are two house, does that mean they're not living together?

I certainly don't like the idea of two separate places, I want all the housemates together from the start and right through.

Like you on my friend's list.

Undecided, I'll only have a solid opinion on it once the series starts.

[jennyjuniper]

Seeing as the level of 'celebs' has been so dire and that most of the civilians are wannabees with agents, one has to ask, would we notice the difference?
Channel 5's idea of 'great names' includes people from Ex on the Beach, Geordie Shore etc.,
As a long term fan, I would rather see a civilian BB with a diverse group of housemates (none with an agent) adhering closely to the original format and with an intelligent production team.

Yeah and I'd think about maybe calming down if that's how far you're hating on someone.

I ran a similar poll on Twitter - the voting was very close throughout but the final result is quite interesting...

[TomC]

What was it? I can't see.

24% voted for Switch on - brilliant!
27% Switch off - Terrible
22% I miss twist-free BB
27% Watch out of curiosity

Don't forget this is the type of audience that Ch5 are trying to cater towards and this isn't a very good result for them considering the already low viewership.

[TomC]

Why tf would they think this was a good twist tbh? The people who watch BB watch it because they want normal people and not celebs! The viewership between BB and CBB isn't even big so Idk what they're thinking.

I thought the idea sounded ok at first but now I'm entirely against it.

[iRyan]

Honestly I wouldn't mind it if they casted the right "celebrities" and axed Summer Celeb BB.

The cast would just have to be really, really strong.

I mean going off past seasons imagine if the past regular BB and CBB had been joint.

Jade, Harry Amelia, Harriet, Amy & Sally, Tiffany, Megan, Gemma, Stephanie
Marc, Aaron, Jack, Joel, John, Scotty T, Jeremy, Christopher

The idea has potential.

[crazycolaist]

Love & hate is probably the worst answer to give, Like or Dislike is more situable. I'll see how it is anyway, Ain't sure yet.

While your lineup is actually not bad with what you had to work with there, and surprisingly diverse by Ch5's standards, the main issue is that the Celebs will have the advantage in the voting as their friends and family can try Scotty T's friend's trick of call such and such number and then it's really a vote for such Celeb, and the fact that Celeb's have fans that vote for them that don't even watch BB that would swing the result, if it can do it on the Celeb editions then why on Earth can't they have an effect on the Civilian edition?

[Heaven = Winner]

Isn't that the concept of CBB nowadays anyway, with the way they grab so many names that barely anybody has even heard of before?
