OTT People OUT! Normal people in.

Exactly.

I said that thinking about the situation where they went to BB4 and made everybody too dull.

Who knows what we will get, there seems to be hugely contrasting reports in the press.

Please no.

80% Normal.
20% Freaks.

Series 5 was ordinary people too. Think about it. None of them were particularly loud people with handicaps or twisted delusions about the world. The vast majority of them were just very loud suburban and inner city Britons. The type of 'ordinary' pricks you would find in any town.

Ordinary is the way to go as long as they are the right kind of ordinary.

We all want normal people, let's face it. BB3 is a great example. It may have had gameplayers and all that but at the end of the day they were normal. Even Johnny, who played up to the cameras, wasn't an absolute freak.

Exactly. People always think that ordinary means boring. It doesn't. It just means you weren't put into the house soley on the basis that you have a dick where your nose should be or you're a manic depressive Vietnam veteran or some crazy **** like that.

This Is Cassandro

The self-proclaimed ‘Queen of the ring’

But has he got a ring?

You need at least one or two weird housemates but they shold not be put in just because they are transexal or funny looking they should have a personality . I think we need to have some funny housemates, a couple of bitchy ones, a game player some, sexy housemates and one or two "freaks" and i think we should have a good series.

IMO there should be a good mix of freaks/OTT people and ordinary people (like BB7).

A house of all "ordinary" people is boring and will not bring in ratings. It's not 2001 anymore.

But I wouldn't mind all ordinary people as long as they are bitchy and dramatic. I just don't want a bunch of Rachel's and Imogen's and Mikey's and Shell's and Stuart's in the house. That's boring.

Big Brother 3 was the biggest series in the history of the show, so bollocks.
