It all feels quite lethargic, but I don't want to look that gift horse in the mouth too much as honestly I'd rather a dull, traditional feeling series over 16 influencers being endlessly coerced and cajoled by twists and tasks to the point where the inevitable 'fight night' doesn't matter because it doesn't seem to actually be occurring with real people.

They're all lacking in energy so much, it's quite something. Jenkin, Channelle, Jordan, Henry...just about everyone you can think of just sort of lays about like a houseplant as if mildly stoned, endlessly contextualising their own existence as people in long, drawn out dialogues.

Jordan started out with promise but he kind of perfectly sums up the malaise. He's completely stopped being memeable at this point and is just genuinely beige.

The next task should just be the pump wasps into the house and see how they get on.

But it's fine as my hour of the day where I use my brain the least.

I think it's the other way round. The last few shows have dragged.

And you know you're in trouble when the supposed best two housemates are dreary Jordan and Henry. I will never understand their 'popularity'.

Yeah, the show needs beefing up. People like Tom and Jenkin are getting away sitting on their bums doing nothing. BB need to make things tougher for them.

It's a bit like a holiday camp in there. But I'm still watching.

I think first year back with the show it does need improvement. This year does feel very edited in favour of the trio I like Jordan but going off him more and more as it seems to be the only thing they show. I would like more balance. A vote to save with them all up and two/three going would be good.
