Default Great series, well done C5 and the housemates

Denise is a worthy winner and an entertaining housemate. She was at the centre of a lot of the arguments and fights which provided the most entertainment. The twins were entertaining housemates too and so was Michael. I'm glad the twins didn't win though because they are arrogant enough. Frankie was quite funny as well and a worthy runner up. In fact all the housemates had their moments, apart from Georgia who was just dull. I think the only thing that could have made it better was if Andrew Stone stayed a bit longer and Georgia went earlier but you can't have everything. Overall it was a great series of CBB.

This series has been fantastic, all the housemates played their part in the success and I hope next years effort is even better.

One of the best series in years, the very first time since I began watching (in 2006) that I watched every single episode.

Loved every minute of it, was worried it would go downhill after Andrew's exit but this was one series where it hasn't really ever dipped in entertainment, and the great thing is we didn't have to put up with any showmance rubbish like we did with CBB8 & BB12

Overall the HMs were a good mix and way better than the poor effort in the CBB last year.

However I found that cheap filler montages ended up taking up too much of the HLs, they should have dug more stuff out from in the house than just repeating material we had already seen.

And of course for the main series to work a live internet stream is needed.

To be fair, she stopped us from having the typical showmance. Unlike many before her, she wasn't prepared to hand it to Kirk on a plate, and I actually found myself enthralled by the strange dynamic between them.

I love this year's housemates!

Absolutely amazing series. I'm really pleased it's paid off for C5. I can't wait for the summer version to start.

I was just joking. All the housemates, including Georgia, played their part in the dynamic of the series. Georgia had quite an important role in fact since she selected the two housemates for the second nominations. Also it was her and the twins that formed the little rebel girl tribe until she was evicted. BB is like a play with different types of characters who together make the show what it is. This series the combinations of personalities worked.

Absolutely! The dynamics this year just worked out beautifully.

Although I was happy when The Shannons were evicted in 5th, I particularly love the dynamic they brought.

They went from seemingly typical boring bimbos, to funny pantomime villans, to an evil two-headed mastermind.

This is why booing should be banned, like in the US. Both the friendly and less-friendly housemates add something to the narrative that we see playing out on our screens. You can't have good without bad. Most of the booing mob wouldn't have even watched if it wasn't for the twins, Pantsgate got a lot of interest.

I'm so happy that, for once, I can't name a single housemate who I currently dislike. I'm going to miss CBB9.

In a way I actually liked the crazy mental crowd. At times they can get a bit annoying but I think they add something to the show. I just think it's part of the pantomine of the show. I don't think there is any malice in most of the people booing. And it will be really depressing to see someone come out to an empty studio.

Definitely the best CBB I've seen. I don't really like Denise but she was a great housemate and much of the series revolved around her.
