Default Where do you rank this series?

I'd say it's definitely in the Top 5, could be in the top 3 or maybe booted out of Top 5 depending on the winner.

Better than BB12 and BB13, but worse than all the C4 series. The housemate selection was great but all of the producer manipulation and contact with the outside world has ruined it for me.

It's ok - kinda. Not that great at all really. I had very high hopes for it at the start though.

So did I. I think if they just let the housemates get on with it, it would have been an amazing series.

The twists have definitely backfired and ruined this one.

It's good but not great. BB13 was consistently entertaining while BB14 has had its slow points.

In the top 5, with BB6, 7 and 10 still yet to be beaten. Whether or not it replaces BB13 in fourth will depend solely on the winner. Dull...no, decent...yes.

Over the last 5 years I'd put it around the bottom. Honestly I'm not sure how it could be any worse. Other then a few decent housemates, most of them are complete bores. Looks who's left. While I genuinely think they're decent enough people, Sophie, Sam, Hazel and Charlie are all just bores.

best ever was brian and Helens year imho
I enjoyed the year glyn was there too
jades year with kate and jonny was good
the first one with craig was very good
last years was a bit dull
aaron was a boring winner but the series was pretty good
the one with Cameron wasn't great though him going to African big brother wwas awesome...those African laydees were smoking too

off the top of my head this has been pretty good..can get better later on if interesting ones remain

best bb ever though was the celebrity one with Jackie stallone john mccririck Brigitte nielson etc that was class

The poll choices are too OTT, it's NONE of the 3 for me.

I don't know if i'm missing something or if you guys are just far more easily pleased than me but apart from a couple of great housemates (Dexter and Gina!!!) this series has been pretty weak as far as i'm concerned!

A year like BB10 (and BB9) in particular can't even be compared to any of the C5 BB's! It was so hugely superior in terms of housemates and general production (everything about it in fact!) that current BB's don't even seem like the same show to me.

I really like Gina & Dexter and it would be great if one of them actually won this, but overall I don't like this series at all - way too many rubbish twists & turns, I especially hate nominations twists and diary room privacy violations and the outside contact and the vote to evict etc. Not good at all. I stopped watching regularly week after the SH twist. And seeing how ridiculously they got rid of Dan I don't plan to change my mind. I still read the forum and watch evictions, but that's about it - and this is the first series since BB7 that I haven't watched regularly. So I would rate this in the bottom half for sure.
