[Mystic Mock]

We've just started the second week, and we're still hearing the same topics of discussion that we've been hearing since the first highlight show.

These lot appear to have about as much depth as a puddle.

Thank God for you guys and certain family members that are into the Show, otherwise I would be long gone from this incredibly boring series.

They need an equal for Richard

Not sure what the expectation is, there are never any fireworks in the first week, everyone is on their best behaviour, its bubbling nicely and normal noms usually help kick off the paranoia

Zelah says there is a sense of home speaking to gani

Is the UK not her home?

Well Nancy not talking about her cultural heritage every time that they show her would be nice.

Then there's Zelah with banging on about being Trans 90% of the time.

Feyisola constantly talking about being a bald headed black woman.

Cameron K referencing being a Farmer.

George turning everything into a right wing manifesto.

Teja is just being edited as the "girl from Bristol."

Jenny's just the "girl from Derry."

And didn't you know, Sam's gay?


Now I have no issues with any of these topics being discussed in themselves (they're natural everyday discussions for a lot of people around the world) but we do need a lot more depth than that.

Mock is taking no prisoners

I'd have agreed much more up to Friday.

Tonight though I did like it more.
I don't mind the conversations, I like to hear other people's life events and stories.
Even moreso on important issues.
I even warmed more tonight to Cameron the farmer, which I didn't think possible.

Tonight was only spoiled for me with the ridiculous drama of bed changing re Elsa and Marcus.
Although the task was not one of the better ones either.

So while for me, the conversations are pretty much things I like even on topics I may disagree.
Plus too that I found tonight a bit more enjoyable to watch.
I DO however agree it DOES need to pick up.

Maybe they were pitched to stick to their roles a little too well. I feel like that must happen at least somewhat before they all go in. Most everyone so far has stayed very loyal to their Myspace profile.


Except our Richard. He's the group ball collector.

Maybe they should chuck more housemates in to change the dynamics

I like those kinds of chats as well Joey.

I just also would like chats on some of these particular topics too.

- Household Pets

- Hobbies/interests

- What each individual HM's hometowns are like?

- What's their favourite types of food to eat

- What type of woman or man are they physically attracted too, without it being a hint towards a Showmance

- Heck! Why are they friends with certain Housemates but not others?

That's just a few off the top of my head that I can't remember really hearing many chats about, but have been topics of discussion by this point in other years of BB.

I'm glad that you're starting to enjoy it Joey, and maybe I will once nominations finally happen.

They need to make sure that they're actually interesting to watch though, otherwise we'll end up with bland on top of bland.

And lol @Maru

I get you but at least we know its not scripted

That's what I think is happening too, which isn't fair to the viewer who just wants a bit of lightweight entertainment for six days of the week.

[bots]

i've noticed that a lot of them have their pet topics that they go on about all the time. It's just about bearable for the first week but if they don't change the record, what is the point in watching?

I don't know about that.

Like I said elsewhere if they showed how Lurch ( tall Cameron) is in the live stream ( plus the rest of the time )..

He’s loud , hyperactive , wandering around posing aggressively .. making people jump out of their skin , standing over them looking intimidating … literally following Nancy around when he’s had a few drinks then though she’s made it clear she’s not interested

But controversially that would make for a better experience.

It lets me be more informed about Cameron B's behaviour, plus it probably brings the other Housemates into the fold in ways that might make them more interesting too.

ITV like a lot of corporations today, just doesn't understand that depth makes for better Entertainment products, regardless of genre, style, or any kind of gimmicky ideas.

[caprimint]

If Emily was still there nobody would be thinking this

[Adamw92]

I’m hoping it’ll pick up once they’ve nominated for the first time… maybe people will start getting paranoid with who to trust and then there’s obviously the twist this week with

Spoiler:

the wearer of the cursed eye having to nominate face to face

that could cause tension and make things pick up a bit.

[GoldHeart]

Hopefully so , and can BB stop focusing on Elsa & Marcus' showmance. As I'd rather watch paint dry ,than hear those 2 nitwits .

[DanielM787]

I’ll go in and drive them all to extinction

[Vicky.]

I think it's been ok so far, it's usually quite quiet in the first week
