[iRyan]

Definitely up there.

It depends what you mean by best? If half the cast are talentless chavs who can't hold their drink and have no self control, then you could say it's the best. However I would rather have a group of amusing REAL celebrities for it to be a proper CBB.

[Firewire]

Not the best winter series but better than all summer series (except CBB16).

[Daniel-X]

Probably fifth for me atm.

15 > 13 > 9 > 16 > 17

[Samm]

9 > 13 > 3 > 16/17 > etc

It's somewhere in there

[jaxie]

For me its probably the worst CBB in the last four or five years. I don't think it comes close to Lee Ryan's threesome, Speidi, Charlotte Crosby, Gary Busey, Perez, Jaustin etc. As far as characters and events go this one's only real moment was a misunderstanding over a death.

[waterhog]

I have really enjoyed it and love it. but soon as it ends I move on and wait for next one.


only the ones I hate stick in my mind.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Didn't get off to the best start but its turned out to be amazing Stephs breakdown (Don't think ive ever heard the word **** used so many times in a diary room rant lol) Also Megans meltdown will go down as legendary!

Im liking how toned down the editing is the house is amazing as are the graphics and the whole thing seems like a well oiled machine again.

This year every single CBB has been brilliant, gripping tv even the summer one (I actually found myself tuning in when I was in Hollywood via youtube lol sad I know but I was addicted!)

I honestly cant choose which is best so for me its joint best with CBB13/CBB15/CBB16 and now CBB17.

Bravo producer and everyone involved.

Only disappointment to me are the ratings being slightly down this series should be killing it but ratings are not what makes a great series anyway officials are in today lets see how many people have caught up on catchup I have a feeling we could be seeing some big numbers especially Megans episode which got 130k tweets when it was on.

[Niamh.]

It is really good but I can't help but feel it's a bit scripted :/

That's ridiculous why would Steph agree to ruin her career and engagement?

I don't know, her tantrum seemed really weird and disingenuous to me

[sampvt]

Its not really a celeb bb though is it. Half of them are unknowns, one third are decrepit washed ups and the rest are boring. As usual the ones that bring it are the cheap and cheerfulls and the expensive ones are flops as usual. Not in my top ten for these reasons.

you've been watching the wrong show for some time then

[Jordan.]

13 and 16 were better

[chuff me dizzy]

I thought while watching last night show, is there anyone sane in there ? most have serious mental problems

[drantb]

The Lee Ryan one is probably still my favourite out of them all. And the Katie Hopkins mess was pretty good fun too.

From the few episodes I've seen of this one, it's alright.

Most likely shes playing up to the camera then I don't think CBB producers would risk anyone finding out its scripted.

Its not a scripted show if it was they would have to give an announcement like TOWIE do.

I found it genuine.

The big names rarely live up to expectation as they are so afraid of losing career opportunities where as the unknowns are there for as much attention as possible.

Its a decent line up imo beats Im A Celeb hands down every year I never know most of the IAC cast.

I know every single person bar Jeremy this series and that nut job who compared gays adopting kids to child abuse other than that yeah I know them all.

It is a celeb BB as much as any other year.

[goodensn]

I haven't seen all the summer CBBs, but CBB 13 ("Ask her about Frank Carson's dressing room") will always be hard to top.

[LukeB]

better than the summer CBBs but it's my 3rd favourite C5 one

[Jason.]

It's top-tier 'okay' for me. It's not as good as CBB9, 15/16. And CBB13 is the best C5 CBB imo. Having said that, I do like how the mix of drama and fun is perfect i.e not having too much drama and lack of fun to the point where it just becomes tiresome (CBB15) but the mix is perfect and the drama we've had is natural and not constant screaming matches forced by the producers.
