Default Format changes: Yay or nay?

Format changes would be...
  • adding music when the evictee leaves
  • adding music for tasks
  • adding the whole "who is safe" part
  • removing a lot of the element of isolation by putting loads of non-HMs in
  • other random changes

I, for one, hate the changes.

The old way was boring. The changes make the show fresh.

I hate it when they play music as the evictee comes out, thats a load of bollocks.
Also the interviews are **** this year, they need to be given a slot of 15 mins AT LEAST fgs.

I'm liking the new format, I think it's a refreshing change.

The changes introduced last Celebrity Big Brother (speedy editing on the nominations, task montages) were fine, though elements new to this series haven't all worked, like the daft pre-titles teasers where Marcus Bentley is forced to speak like a Daily Star sub-editor ("CAOIMHE GETS FRISKY!!!!"). Davina revealing who's safe one by one isn't much fun for reasonably savvy viewers who keep up on betting odds, either - revealing that Dave wasn't going tonight (is it late enough to say "last night" yet?) all but gave away that Ben must be, deflating tension rather than increasing it. Although the few viewers this is applicable to had probably already sought out TwitPic spoilers from the eviction crowd and posted their outrage and/or delight on every internet forum they could find by that point.

As for "putting loads of non-HMs in" - I'd normally disapprove but the 'Ignore the Obvious' task was genuinely entertaining until the inexplicable appearance of "Jedward". It hasn't descended to Celebrity Hijack's level quite yet.

Task editing and stuff isn't so bad.

Nominations don't seem as big anymore now though with that editing.

The music is a ******ing nightmare!

The who is safe thing is great.

Save and Replace is brilliant SOMETIMES when Steve doesn't win lol

I'm abit of both, the only thing I REALLY hate is the music.

Old format - alot better and more original.

The new is just cringeworthy.

I don't hate everything about the new format but with this being the last BB I was hoping to see 'Classic' BB.
IF this was not the last season I may not disagree so much but it seems like I'm missing that 'one last glimpse' of those old favourites.

Adding new people all the time is probably one of the main things halting the potential of this season.

music for when they leave I dont mind.
Music for the Tasks I despise.
**** edit jobs for the tasks I hate.
announcing whos saved I dont mind.
S&R I dont mind at times. But when they decide to throw it or pick someone who they think are safe I dont care for.
Speed Noms/edit Noms. They never got that right last year so why bother continuing to do it.
Open House day is ya. F off with that.

I like the old ways better all in all. Which is why I despised last years. not just for them reasons but alot of others

Who is safe isn't completely new, it's been done before.

I voted for old if you mean going back to BB5 or BB6.
