Well I had to do it!! Do what?. Yes I have just finished watching the re-run of the entire BB3 series. I had a motive to begin with. Last year I used cheapo DVD-R discs to archive BB3 and since nearly a year has passed without checking to see if all cheap discs have recorded without problems I thought it time to find out. All 20 discs with 38+ hours viewing

I had one big shock. Instead of being somewhat bored with seeing all those bars and all the screaming of Jade and co. Instead I found it a Joy to watch. So much so it was like a good book which I could not put down. Every spare hour was spent watching and watching. I loved it!! But not like BB2 and the Helen saga. As a bonus for me all discs were just fine.

I think the reason I enjoyed it the second time roud was because there was no more fretting about when or if the bars would come down which spoilt it for me along with others.last year. So I could just relax and and savour all the human or inhuman reaction to events

To enjoy BB3 with a passion means I really should seek help

Haven't had a ramble for some time so bear with me with a somewhat long winded return. Nice to see everyone is still as active as ever. Thanks for the welcom back on another thread.....bananarama

Wahey!! You must have square eyes now??

I didn't think BB3 was too bad in hindsight either. I think it was worse at the time because we were all expecting another BB2 and we started off with something mroe like a Club 18-30 holiday.

But as you say, the interactions between people were still fascinating and for me, that's one of the best bits of the show.

I am sure you are right banarama, it was probably very entertaining.

I think last year I just wanted BB2 to run all over again, that's the problem.

Anyway, I won't be watching BB3 again because I taped over it already.

I think I will be more ready to enjoy this years though, and I am looking forward to it!
