Ask anyone on the street if they watch BB. Most will say I watched the earlier shows but not anymore because the contestants are treated like lab rats and its uncomfortable to watch these days. CBB has a better rapore due to the fact that they mostly behave themselves but it is easier and funnier by a long way.

Completely agree - the show isn't "fun" to watch at all any more. Memorable shopping tasks this year? ... Anyone? There aren't any. Just a bunch of nasty, miserable people doing nasty, miserable things and causing argument after argument.

I worked out recently why Sam and Sophie seem like such bores... Its because they're the only "normal" people in a house full of fake, bitter, nasty, vain pond life. I think from about the 3rd week in they've both basically been depressed! Yes it's boring to watch but really, who can blame them? If i was locked in a house with that lot for weeks I'd be kicking my way out of the fire exit. Last year was pretty bad but at least there were only a few properly scummy characters (Conor, Caroline, Ashley, Arron)... This year it's basically everyone.

Gina is the worst of it and she's been bookies favourite to win for most of the show. That alone says it all.

I've much preferred CBB for the last few years, because there's still some lighthearted fun moments... Main show has gone to the dogs.
