I thought it was very good, I've really enjoyed it.

I got really bored with it after three days. I only continued to watch as I enjoyed seeing Jedward annoying the others. I had never heard of Bobby, Darryn, Sally so I don't know how they warranted being celebrities. So glad this is over and now looking forward to what Big Brother is all about with unknowns. I would give this CBB 2 out of 10.

Very wise. Wiser than me a BB addict. I watched it hoping it would improve and out of curiosity to see how big a balls up CH5 could make of it.

It got worse by the day. Cringeworthy rubbish of the highest order made worse by CH5 gimmicky glossy unrealistic editing that took away the feel of reality.

To say this series is one of the best must mean many have memories of a gold fish. Even the most boring CH4 version was infinitely better then CH5 pathetic efforts

I enjoyed it a lot. Glad that they stuck Jedward, Bobby and Tara in!

[Nightshade]

cant stand the presenters, Brian is crap and emma willis, well the voice is so awful cant stand listening, surely they can find some decent presenters

[waterhog]

sorry you lot < it has been crap even by BB standards < now the normal one has started and none of them will have fans below 10 (like deadwood did ) i no this will be such a better show.

Ive been watching these since BB6.
& I have to say this one is the shortest ive ever watched.
3 days and I was done with it. Or whenever Tara made that saying in my sig/quote.
That was the last time I watched it.

Maybe in time Ill catch up on it....right after I watch the last week of Ultimate Big Brother

Maybe in Jan. or whenever they are going to rush out and make another CBB (just for names sake) they will actually have proper celebs

I liked it, especially the finale which was very unpredictable.

With CBB8 we have - maybe - seen the best of BB on C5. With abysmal ratings for BB12 (down 40% from CBB8), one wonders whether the show can survive.

It will be interesting to see what they do for CBB9 in January.

If this carries on, then I can see only a CBB series in future years. CBB was deemed a success on Channel 5 and also people know in the main most of the celebrities so less programming time is needed.

Having said that, if they made changes to next years CBB and BB, then the ratings could rise considerably,I think next years series now is the test. I doubt though that CBB would be dropped.

In my opinion it was terrible as every episode was so predictable; it would start off with about 10mins of Paddy and Darryn talking, then about 5mins of Jedward making breakfast, then Amy and Darryn talking for 10mins and we would end with about 20mins of Amy/Kerry and Lucien.

I am so glad it is over

I liked it at the time but basically since this series started it's been so good that I've forgotten all about CBB

[Doogle]

Im just gonna see CBB8 as a test series, except the people on it got paid loads
