The UK format is capable of producing a good series (like BB5-7 or more recently BB13-14) it just needs better casting and a decent production team (mainly the latter). The last two series didn't have that hence why they were so awful.

And I hate it when people insist they don't want to adopt the US format when they've never even seen an episode of it (this isn't directed at you, just in general). What we have now isn't BBUK, it's so far removed it's laughable. And more to the point - the UK format sucks compared to the US and Canada one. Why would I just want it to continue just because 'that's BBUK' when the other is more interesting? Essential housemates being evicted by the clueless public and people making it far/winners being crowned cause they're attractive dull men OR letting the housemates get on with it themselves and actually have to earn their place in the house and succeed on merit and not just through virtue of never speaking a word and being a man? Yeah, I know what I'd prefer.

Makes me so happy to see newcomers to BBUS and BBCan think this way, reminds me of what happened to me. Welcome to the club
