Default So no ‘walkers’ this series so far

…over half way through and no walkers…. so the housemates/house dynamics etc are seemingly well chosen and blended from that perspective… with no one feeling that the BB house was just not a place they would want to be…but rather, everyone has seemed as though they’ve really wanted to stay and continue their experience as long as they can, I would say…so that’s a big tick for this new ITV2 series in its launch year….what else, in your own opinion…would you say, hasn’t disappointed and you would say, yep…that’s a big tick also and exactly what I hoped for etc…and what ‘improvement or wish list’… what tweaks/what changes etc would you like to see for the the next series….?…

i think jenkin would have been the obvious candidate, but it would have required effort on his part, so it was never a realistic option

I've liked that there is a nice mix of different characters and interactions have been more natural

…during one task, he walked across the house at the speed of lightening to answer the call of a housemate…you probably blinked and missed that, it was such a lightening move…

A longer series is top of my wishlist for next year. Nine weeks at the very least!

Jenkin looked like a possible candidate at one stage, but he seems happier now.

It helps that they mostly get on well enough and no-one is uncomfortably isolated.

Also, it's a short series, there's just over 2 weeks to go. They might not be so happy to stay if it was 2 months

Jenkin is too lazy to leave , and he obviously enjoys being a greedy git in the storeroom with his pals Paul , Tom , Oliva & Chanelle.

I hope not. I think she probably wouldn't because she's been involved in a lot of competitions which probably don't always have a positive atmosphere so I think she'd believe she needed to see it out to the end.

But this has really hurt her, we don't know how well things will go with Dylan going forward and I could see her withdrawing and isolating herself

I don't think Noky will walk she will just hide behind Trish and become closer to Trish and her crew. Didn't Trish talk about leaving at one stage? She is the only one I recall saying something about quitting the show.

In terms of improvements I think a lot is needed.
- Longer series
- Presenters staying neutral or better still bring Rylan in.
- BBLL audience interactions more and less of the 3 on the panel or atleast get a decent panel in.
- Better layout for BBLL 3 rows of audience members so the presenters are not walking up and down too much.
- More of the old school regular fans who are die hard BB fans, too many of the audience shy away from speaking.

- Bigger outside space
- Less censoring of the live feed
- Tasks where they can seperate the group dynamics up and we can force people who don't really speak to spend some time together
- Less manipulation

The last time we had a series with nobody walking or being ejected was BB4

Ah, another grounds for comparison with BB4. Doesn't necessarily speak well of this series.
