If we bore you so much then leave and stop commenting.

Started rewatching aswell, I'm on Day 3 atm, I love how basic it all was back then and how innocent and not fame *****s all the HMs were. Really enjoying it

God forbid people try to have a discussion with you. The ignore list is handy if you have any problems.

[Macie Lightfoot]

No problems at all! The discussion just wasn't going anywhere

Why not get back to discussing what the OP meant and discuss the fact they are watching BB2.

Gotta say I like hearing the opinions of BB fans who watch the earlier Big Brothers for the first time as a lot of the younger members have an opinion of BB1/2 as boring so wont watch them.

Got Patrick to watch BB3 and its one of his top series now hope your enjoying the series op

I'm enjoying it very much thanks for asking Daniel-Lewis-1985.

I didn't watch any yesterday but I'm going to be watching some in the minute.

Have you changed your opinions on anyone so far?

[BigSister]

Niamh I agree with you on how basic it was back then but somehow it was still watchable. One of my fave moments ever came from BB2
When I return from holiday i might start rewatching too
And Daniel BB3 is my second fave series

[Mystic Mock]

I've got to say that Bubble's sob story is really doing my head in at the minute.

Updated list.
1. Narinder
2. Brian
3. Paul
4. Amma
5. Helen
6. Penny
7. Stuart
8. Dean
9. Bubble
10. Elizabeth

[BigSister]

I like that Elizabeth is your least fave Mock she was mine too
Also when I watched first Narinder annoyed me so much. But looking back she was a good housemate

Yeah Elizabeth makes Rachel Rice look entertaining and that's saying a lot as I really didn't like Rachel Rice.

And Narinder is the star for me, there is other good HM's in there as well but she just has that presence about her that the others don't have imo.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Rachel Rice <3333333333 Elizabeth kinda sucked at first but she grew on me over time, even though she doesn't really change.

Is this a good series? Everybody always raves about this and BB6. I don't rate BB6 that highly so I don't know whether to give this ago, especially since it aired 13 years ago. I always said Big Brother 5 would be as old as I would go.

It's my favourite series anyway. It is completely different to the later series but I like that about it, it's much less about fame hungry wannabes and more about a social experiment and their interactions with eachother. Also for me Brian Dowling was just the best HM of all time and this series is what made me love BB so much

[BigSister]

What Niamh said. And they are normal but not boing

My thoughts have been well-documented in this thread about how nothing happens past Week 4 and the cast really isn't all that, but if this is going to be your first "old school" (1-4) BBUK series I'd suggest starting with BB1, which holds up surprisingly well. You have to approach viewing BB1-4 differently and it takes some getting used to and I think BB1 is probably the best one to start with just to get used to watching the old series.

If you didn't understand the fuss about BB6, I would advise not to watch any pre-BB5 as you may not like them. They're very different in tone and focus from later series.

It's worth giving it a go. Maybe watch the launch and a couple of highlights shows to see how you get on.

Big Brother 5 is my favourite series, does that change anything?

Thanks.

[BigSister]

I would say if you prefer the newer ones or the ones that got wacker people (BB5 onwards) then you might not like it. Like BB1 its more of a social experiment but if your intested in how BB started then its a good watch. But its up to you

Not really. That was a big changing point for BB.

I mean, if you don't mind a more simplified, basic and subdued BB?

Hmm, I've seen clips from Big Brother 1. Didn't like its style but I think I'll give it a go.

BB2 has a much nicer bunch of HM's, and I think you might like some of the female Housemates in the series as they are quite outgoing.

Btw wtf with Stuart staring at Penny while she was doing the dishes? And I like Paul but the highlights only seem to be showing him when his with Helen at the minute which is quite sad as his quite funny when his with the other Housemates.

Anyway my updated list.
1. Narinder
2. Brian
3. Amma
4. Paul
5. Penny (I don't want her to leave lol)
6. Helen
7. Dean
8. Stuart
9. Bubble
10. Elizabeth

[BigSister]

haha I don't remember Stuart staring at penny while she was doing the dishes
