Default Brilliant Series

On the whole I have REALLY enjoyed this series.

Laura who was evicted last night had more charisma than the entire cast put together last year - just remembering that floppy boy - and the winner - coco - or whoever - how forgettable they ALL were and how that series droned on and on and the one before when Helen won was also a bore fest.

Such a shame they have great House Mates this year - probably the best for many many years and they are making it an extra short series.

Whoever did the casting for HM's deserves a pat on the back - Its good to have variation - such as Andy and Jason - Hughie and Jayne - Chelsea was awful but it was great when he went.

Im really sad that it will be over soon.

Yeah it's been really good character and story wise, but there's still been things that have annoyed me, such as showing conversations to the house, changing the noms rules, and non-live evictions.

The production has been a mess but the HMs have saved it.

I like that there's been less blatant manipulation this year in terms of Nomination twists and such but the producers need to drop these tasks that are just meant to stir up drama. It's so boring and we really didn't need it with this cast.

Production has been trash, also glad The Others were cast or it would have been absolute diabolical like the past two.

Yes it has generally been a good mix of characters all round. Also great to see Older people better represented.

It's been brilliant but I hope they don't take this as the green light to reduce all series in future to 50- days. 64 would be ideal really, with an extra week at the start before evicting anyone, and an extra week mid-series where we lost 3 at a time (Chelsea/Teesh/Ryan).

Best one on c5. Fewer nomination twists, fewer twists in general, wider range of ages.

Too many z-listers and outside infromation to compare to the average c4 series but its the first time c5 got close.

Amazing. I enjoyed it.
There's really no one to hate. I wish it lasted longer.

Best C5 series for me, would have been better if there wasn't unfair back door evictions and drama manipulating tasks every single day though.

A really good series which i have enjoyed a lot, I especially loved the variety and different ages of housemates this year as the older housemates have provided drama such as Natalie, Jayne, Chelsea Jason

Wow, so out of touch.

The worst Big brother I have ever seen.

And I am talking internstional too.

No tasks, unlike able housemates and tedious.

Guess I am getting old, sorry.
