If I wanted to watch a reality show with scripted actors l would watch MIC or TOWIE. BB is still the best reality show on TV for me but I have found this series to be the most challenging to stick with due to the reasons above and too much interference and bias from the BB producers. We have had a houseful of people but have only seen a few.

People could say that this is to do with the fact that they were boring but let's be honest they were never given an opportunity to shine. All the tasks etc were given to either Speide or Rylan. The whole edit just revolved around them and the others were just bit part players put in there for Speide to break down.

People could argue that the ratings have been quite good for this series due to the confrontational nature and the two sides but do the Speide fans feel cheated to know that it was all an act and they were playing totally fake characters. I know I would.

What I would really love to see is BB back to basics but unfortunately after this series and seeing how low the producers will stoop for ratings I think I will be disappointed and if this is the case and we end up with a soap scenario then I will take my leave.
When Spencer said bb had paid him to be the villain/baddie, I didn't think that meant he'd been briefed on what to do etc but that, being the baddie is what he's known for so that was what was expected of him. I hope that makes sense

I think it is pretty obvious that he has been briefed on what BB expected of him. He said as much in the diary room. I have no qualms that the pair of them had no trouble playing their parts. There have got to be reasons why Heidi's family have disowned her and they are outcasts in their own country.

I do think that they are v surprised to still be here. I can understand why. America is a v patriotic country and would support their own no matter what. It always makes me laugh how we as a country are so unpatriotic.

T


That will be why all the Americans have won in the past then. It really should have nothing to do with nationality, but on who delivered. It's CBB not BCBB.

Where housemates come from doesn't come in to it, for me!
