Default Favourite golden B.B. - 3., 5, 6 or 7?

What’s your favourite Big Brother series of the four standout ones - BB3 or any one of the mid.-noughties ones?

I’d say the seventh series was the start of the exploitation of very vulnerable people and no other series had such a string of those types but there’s no denying it was an entertaining series.

Anyone who thinks 7 is the best it was clearly their first series and therefore they are bias

A good 50% of the cast had minimal impact.

I might be too harsh in retrospect but I just think it's something that every time I've caught clips of rewatches or whatever, it was largely a big, boring clique that picked off the eccentric housemates one by one.

I can only imagine you mean Richard/Susie picking off the eccentric ones, as the other grouo mainly went early
