Default Thoughts on the series being cut short?

So it's been reported/announced that this years final will be on Thursday 16th July and that it's also been cut short, are you happy about this i.e get it over and done with or did you want it to at least last a bit longer?

I wish we had the extra week, but then this series hasn't been the best.

Sick of it. Aisleyne, Nikki, Brian and Helen have ruined it for me.

The BB crew know they have made a hash of it by interfering way too much, so they could do nothing other than cut it short.

The problem is that this is no different to last year in terms of production manipulation is involved. I doubt they will change for the better now :/

I cant say I am sad about it,the series was totally ruined by the so called legends and guests going in,I feel sorry for the original housemates we never really got to see how they would have come along and interacted as they were totally over shone by everything else,if I was one of them,I would have felt cheated.

Appalled quite frankly. Yes it's not been great but I don't care, we only get a measly ten weeks these days and I want every single last day of it.

There was a potential for this series to be the longest on C5 by about a day or so but now I think it may well be the shortest? ****ing pathetic.

It's not like the first 18 days before the quad were amazing either but I'm glad it's being cut short, I really dont know how to class this series theres no consistency anywhere.

Trouble is, they believe massive twists fix the ratings.. when it reality it's turning people away from the show.

I'm really disappointed its finishing early, I know there been a lot twists & turns, also the legends task taking up for a couple weeks, but I've really enjoyed this series.
