If BBUK is to really impress the crowd this summer, they really need to really up their game. If you look at examples from around the world, they have a lot more to offer. Let's take a look at a few examples:

• LIVE FEED - yes, were all sick of hearing about it, but it needs to be mentioned, so lets just get it over with. If you look at BB Canada, its their first season, and they have 4 live feeds to choose from, for free. They even have the opportunity to interact with the housemates via the live feed. Now I'm not saying that they should just copy BB Canada, bit they could build the live feed back into the red button like they did on E4, and then show it when the teleshopping slot is on 5*, or the SuperCasino slot on C5 through the night. Or even a couple of hours after the main show and then BOTS every night. What I'm aiming at is that it needs to be there more often than it is.

• EDITING - the editing of the main show needs to go back to its roots. Take a look at BB Australia. It doesn't have a pop song when it opens, or any text effects or explosion sound effects. It only has the odd song where its needed. Not in every opening or every task, and not when there is an argument. They also also need less Marcus Bentley involvement. He has too much involvement in the narration, when we want to see what the housemates are doing. He also needs to calm down a bit during the tasks.

• EVICTIONS -
  the live evictions at the moment are not good enough. They need to have the live intros back rather than the VT at the beginning, or at least have one without narration in it, like in BB Australia. They also need to tone Marcus Bentley down here also, as he sounds like he is having a panic attack every time he introduces Brian, or telling housemates to leave the house, which leads me onto my next point. Marcus Bentley shouldn't be telling the housemates to leave the house, he is not Big Brother. They need to also put some sort of blockage between the house and the crowd, as the housemates can hear them through the wall. Perhaps the fence that they had in the C4 series or some soundproofing? They also need to have some crowd control when Brian is talking to the house and doing the interviews. We actually want to hear who is going to be evicted, and what they have to say after. While Jamie Sutcliffe may enjoy having the crow baying for blood, we don't. We also need a new outdoor set, Big Brother is coming into its third year with the Inital/C5 deal, and it hasn't changed, apart from getting rid of the lighting on the scaffolding, extending the screen onto the door, getting rid of the stairs on the runway and replacing them with a ramp and changing the eye on the presenter podium. It needs a new look. They also need to stop using those stupid jingles to go out to advert breaks on. They never did it on C4, why have they started doing it now?

• LIVE LAUNCH/FINAL - they drag on SO MUCH. It seems as if its 15 hours rather than 1.5 hours. Now I know that the Celeb launch twist was amazing, but they'll probably go back to an earpiece task in the summer. They're boot good enough. Think of something more original! And they need to make the final more of a show! Just look at the BB Australia final, they even hadthe housemates do a dance routine! If they were to do this though, they can't do a camp-athon like the CBB10 launch. They need to put more effort into the final. And they need to stop putting montages at the end of the launch, we want to see the housemates getting on with each other, or the fallout of a task. And as for the end of the final, we want to see some fireworks! They're the best part! Confetti and iced smoke isn't good enough. The full on fireworks display at the end of a C4 finale could be seen from miles away!

This is just my opinion, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on the subjects raised. Please feel free to comment below, and I'll try my best to reply!
