A new era and new ideas are needed for that.

New ideas are not the way forward for me. I don't want any stupid gimmicks like that to make the show interesting. A well selected bunch of housemates left on their own should make things entertaining.

I liked it on CBB7, that's it.

Well, it needs a fair bit of fresh thinking and new ideas in relation to the last 2 series which near destroyed BB altogether.It was winding down on Channel 4 for the last 2 years and the lack of good production and new and fresh ideas showed that.

OT... but I love your signature!

The TOT has been used before. C5 need a back to basics approach to get viewers interested. Old gimmicks will not go down well MO.

This.

Plus, we don't want to keep on dragging things from the C4 BB to C5, it's a new start. We don't want any old housemates being involved as well, just keep it all new and fresh.

No it became pointless after everyone knew. If I hear the words

'You're on a secret task aren't you'

one more time this year i'll crack

Fair point.

Mind you... that's said by half the housemates all the time after someone is called to the diary room, returns to the fold and doesn't discuss what BB was talking to them about.

[InOne]

No. Got far too tacky in the end and the tasks it gave were very very cringey to watch. Like that Andrew's one, WTF was that

[King Gizzard]

Won't be good without Daniel Nettleton

[Omah]

I hope not - it was a dreadful idea .....

[Beastie]

No Tree of Temptation. No too many stupid gimmicks!!

The TOT just showed how poor BB11 was because it did all the work for them!!

It can't come back. Sorry!

The only gimmicky thing they should have is a secret camera. Like Bunny Cam from BB7. LOL

Plus secret rooms and all that jazz!

[Suze]

The secret rooms get on my nerves also, plus they are not secret, and most of the housemates guess about them, especially when they can hear the work going on. The best BB's had hardly any or no gimmicks at all. It's the gimmicks and too much interferring from BB rather than let the housemates get on with it that ruined many a BB, and gave us end results that were manipulated to achieve.

I did enjoy when BB trashed the house and garden in BB8 though and left the housemates to clear it up I remember Nicky's face although she and the others took it in good heart

Agree with you on this Suze, this time they should learn from past mistakes and leave them mostly to their own devices, the first ever series with Craig and nasty Nick was brilliant. People watching at its best.
