Lisa was awful and two faced in that nominations, especially after she almost killed Nikki with the bike on Grace's eviction

CBB12 is underrated imo

Actually I'd argue that Freddie made Lisa relevant (let's be real sitting smoking for 18 hours a day was never going to make good TV) by being his annoying self which then led to Lisa and Kris' group constantly mocking him. He had more than enough personality to carry himself, that's the entire reason half the house hated him because they couldn't stand it

This.

Same with BB8, actually. As it died after Charley's eviction. So having 5 weeks without made it even worse.

Yeah, it was actually good and fun to watch for a summer CBB.

I couldn't help it

- BB7 had the best twists of all time which were executed to perfection (yes, including the returnee twist)

- The House Next Door is the best twist of all time

- The Halfway House wasn't that bad, especially compared to what we get these days

Freddie was eccentric yes, but his personality alone is not enough to make him the legend people paint him out to be.

For example, people like Makosi could make drama out of thin air,if Freddie had found himself in BB6 or BB7 he would have been backgroud noise

Halfway House was a joke, it wasn't even secret

IKR.

Putting in 2 sluts, 2 weirdos, and Kara-Louise as replacement of Charley was nasty to watch.

Well of course I don't disagree with that, but tbh most of the casts of BB10 through 16 would be background noise in a house full of BB5-7 housemates. They're just in different leagues

Freddie is still one of the best housemates of BB10

[Daniel.]

Orlaith...wasn't that boring? She had her iconic Kemal and Derek rivalry and Makosi's endless stirring about her, plus her iconic Science row

[Jason.]

Anyone else find it funny how we're having like 2 diff convos.

One about BB10, and the other about random shiz.

BB10 cast is head and shoulders above the rest of the casts post BB7 though :P

It wasn't meant to be though. The point of the twist was what the house meant - being up for eviction, and I thought all the little twists they did throughout the week were quite good

It also was an actual house (well, the two task rooms + a kitchen) like the HND with a garden. Shame we can't get that anymore

Not here for Borelaith!

She wasn't that bad compared to the bores we get nowadays. Like Pav.
Plus she entertained me more than Anthony, Maxwell, Eugene, and Roberto did. So fair play to her.

I also agree with that

Actually I'd say the BB10 cast is my second favourite as a collective of all time. 6 first, then 10, then 7

[Daniel.]

Chanelle was more to blame for the rivalry between her and Charley than Charley was

10 before 7?!

EDIT: Oh right I see you meant cast not series

[Jason.]

BB10 cast.

Comparing to the BB12 cast, only two years later actually makes my heart sink.

[Pete.]

Orla is only hated because of who she survived against

Honestly? Yeah

Individual characters in BB7 are better than those in 10 but as a collective I thought the BB10 cast delivered more together than the various duds in BB7

They are close, but it just edges it for me. The BB10 cast personifies exactly the kind of diversity that Big Brother needs, and I wish they would cast the same way every year

[Jason.]

I'm not sure this is opinion or fact or whatever, but

Chanelle was a nine year old boy.

It would be bad by today's standards. They had them constantly swapping between the two houses for no reason, then once they finally had a set of housemates up for eviction, they ended up deciding that they didn't want any original housemates going anyway and put the newbies up instead.
