I'm not going to lie, on Channel 4 the show was chavvy, but professional. Take BB5-BB6 for example.

Now it's just cheap and tacky. BB12-BB13.

It is improving, but it's still there.

The majority of houses on C5BB have had some sort of tacky glitter or neon feel to it.

Especially the dreadful BB12 and BB13 houses.

The only C5 house that actually felt like a C4 house is the BB15 house.
It got rid of all this glitz and glam and made it sleek and modern, like how the C4 houses were.

I agree. You wouldn't believe it's the same house as back in BB3! I wish they didn't keep tearing it down and putting it back up again, I think they should've just kept to just changing the furnishings and color scheme. It's too luxurious as well. Big Brother should be a competition, not a holiday!

I also hate the bedrooms on C5.
I think BB15 was the only Channel 4 looking bedroom.
Just a simple room with beds and patterns on the wall.

Every other series has the glamor, gold and glitzy feel to it. Even BB16's bedroom.

I miss how it used to be a simple room with coloured walls and just the beds in it.

Like the BB6 bedroom...

...compared to the BB13 bedroom

Disgusting in comparison to the simple, yet effective BB6 bedroom.

They could also save so much more money by reverting back to C4 style. Were the neon lights and glitzy walls really necessary? I suppose they just want to make as much use of their budget as possible.

Spot on.

I think Channel 5 spend more money on the house than Channel 4 did. But ironically, it ends up looking much cheaper.

I watch the C4 series' on YouTube so I can't get used to it. It's weird really, because I've only been watching since UBB so you'd think I'd be more used to C5.

I have come to believe it is a work of fiction.

- no davina. Although i think that if she did return, she'd probably have quit by bb13. I can't imagine her enjoying hosting the show that it's turned out to become.

- too much editing. With c4's big brother i felt like i was living with the housemates. There was more of a story - we saw them get up, have breakfast lunch and dinner. We got to see general conversation instead of only being able to watch the 'dramatic' moments and people kissing.

- the tasks are getting worse. It seems most break the rule of 'no contact with the outside world' and are usually only created to stir up trouble within the house. It was entertaining at first, but they've lost their originality. We need more endurance tasks like the box task and the waiting game. I feel that they were more fun to watch.

- nominations should not be messed with in my opinion unless for little twists, and for the last three seasons there hasn't been a single 'normal' nominations week that i can remember.

I know that big brother has to move on, but if i wanted to watch geordie shore, i would go watch that.

Even the the music they use on it now, is usually recent chart music.

It has always done that.
