Default The production is arse backwards whos in charge?

Seriously whos in charge of the editing and set up of the evictions?

Why are we seeing people being saved 15 minutes in then having to sit through 30 minutes of what they were doing yesterday in the highlights? Its so backwards, Emma shouldn't save anyone until the end of the highlights are shown.

Also shouldn't the highlights be what people are voting on? Having voting reopened after they were only open for about 6 minutes whilst the programme was on air is just ****ing dumb.

The final of BB15 was a shambles aswell theres just no flowage.

Its dumb. I remember that one time Luke S was saved over Caroline because of this format. Its so stupid. Loses all tension and reveals a lot of outside information to the house.

I agree with everything except the final sentence, the final was better in my opinion than a lot of finals on Channel 4 (um remember BB9 and 10's)

Not that im complaining im glad James is staying but its the ****ig cheek of them freezing votes about 8 minutes in then showing us the rest of the highlights and leaving the expandable housemates up.

People vote purely on the edit so they freeze the lines then show how they edited the rest of the nominated housemates for the rest of the show.

Its just so in your face manipulated lol. Aww how I miss the days when BB was credible. Miss you BB3!

Well yeah you can manipulate the votes. I still like the suspense of this method though.

It kills the suspense lol they could do this in part 3 then show 10 mins of highlights and the final vote.

Its just as suspenseful saving them 1 by 1 when announcing the evictee.

The fact James has just been a total dick for the last 30 minutes yet has already been saved makes the show look so ODD!

I like James but it just doesn't flow naturally and I can see why the casual viewers are getting so angry, screaming FIX and switching off....And I usually hate those people.

I never actually thought of this but I totally agree. Channel 5 is pissing all over the big brother format like charlotte pissed on her bed.

Exactly it makes no sense to freeze the votes an hour before the 2nd housemate is evicted.

Ive always defended why would they fix it ect ect obviously they need the revenue and the more time the votes are open the more money they make but I really don't understand this format?

They just wanted to secure James' place in the house until Wednesday at least which is wrong because they have robbed a surge of voters voting certain people over him etc

I agree - James would have been given the boot tonight. Its production is a shambles.

Weird re thst usual tonight, do wonder why am I watching it. Get shown all thst vile nastiness spurting out if Janes like pure Venom, then there is no voting afterwards, plus vote to save does lot of people's head in as you need to vote to save 9 out of 9 to try and get the 10th out.stupid. Be really glad when its finished.sound is awful, lot of time got no clue what is going on lol!
