I'm loving just the one 5-second clip at the beginning of the episode rather than the minute long disaster C5 have done in the past

More C4 vibes. Get rid of Marcus saying "Tonight" and it'll be perfect.

It’s all so old school

I agree, get rid of the voiceover and it's perfect - almost identical to the C4 days

Speaking of which I've noticed Marcus has had more generic, toned down lines like he used to, such as 'x and y are in the bedroom' and 'x is in the Diary Room, talking to Big Brother'. It's so much better

In before he starts singing Bob the Builder while they’re doing the wall building task tomorrow

I miss the 5 second teaser before the title sequence.

They'd show something really bizarre and you'd be like "what?" and then you'd have to watch the episode to see it.

I didn't catch the start of the ep but I'm glad they've done this! The previews were getting ridiculous and basically spoiled the whole episode

BB is back to its best. This could shape up to be the best cbb ever maybe?

I think so. Crazy to think that after the launch episode...

I just noticed they've axed the housemates from the bumpers too.

Has the hm wall gone too with their animated pics on?

I don't know tbh. I didn't watch.

[JoshBB]

I love the C4 feel to this series too.

& on the topic of the housemate bumpers, i actually quite like them but I'm not too fussed that theyre gone

This series has been a C4 nostalgia trip so far and I'm loving it!

The drone shots took over

Love it! The short teaser in the beginning, the "next day", the clean transitions without housemates (which they had started on CBB21, though not quite consistently).
