I think Big Brother has messed around with the nominations too much - the first week, it was Roberto, Sam and Makosi who got the most votes (I think), but Makosi's mission meant that she had to choose who was up. Fair enough, but it meant that the two people who were up wouldn't have been normally. Then we had the whole 'optional nominations' thing, then there was the nominating who you want to save. I think there was too many twists and turns.

Also, I don't like all the secret missions - more group tasks were what was needed, rather than secret missions.

The secret garden was a daft idea - I think new housemates should only be brought in if someone leaves.

And although I've said this before, I'll say it again...too many of the housemates were very OTT, and were typical stereotypes. I would like to see housemates that viewers can identify with, like in the earlier series. Regular people, with big personalities.
