If they just let everything go smoothly and normally, it woould turn into a boring show, that would have an incredibly tedious final nonth. I say, do what you want BB, just give us a good show. I am loving it so far, especially that those HMs cant get rid of Charley. I want her to be gone in the final week, just missing out on the Finale! They we'll get the big Charley eviction at the end!

I agree exept in my case I am not loving it. That would be to strong a word for me to use. To me it is a let down although being a fan off BB i will continue to watch hoping it will come good in the end.

The problem that CH4 have is that so many voting viewers treat it like a game of skittles......They think the housemates are something to knock down as soon as possible instead of pacing the stay of the housemates to maximise the entertainment potential.....They seem to ignore the fact that an eviction is not just an eviction of a housemate it is also in most cases the eviction of a story line which can be a disaster from an entertainment perspective......

And look at what weve done so far. Got rid of Shabnam, over Tracey and Carole. She was the only one who could make Charley shutup, by being louder than her. Got rid of Laura, who despised Ziggy, Got rid of Seay, who just wrecked havoc in the house. And we got rid of Billie, who I didnt like, but he was such an important character, who everyone wanted out. So we are left with Charley as the vilain, and everyone else being boring, other than the entertaining once, Like Twins, and Brian. So maybe it is going down a bit. Oh well, lets just seewhat happens next!

I think what BB could do if there are any future series is bring in the least extrovert ones (Dullards washermen/women type). Then say a third through the series bring in a bunch of extreme characters.....The public having endured the boring ones will be glad of an exrtovert change....

As things are I fear the best characters will always go early and BB will become a worn out TV format.

Although another solution might be to try positive voting throughout as opposed to negative voting...

Well excuse me for having an opinion and daring to share my thoughts with others on a forum...A Forum being "A public meeting place for open discussion"....shoot me down in flames why don't you

I've watched them all and tried to miss as few shows as possible. But this year I'm only watching it once every 2/3 days. Watched the first part last night, was bored so turned it off.

Watching people like Charley really doesn't entertain me. Once she goes I'll probably go back to watching everynight
