Possibly because there aren't any big twists, but I think that it's better without them.

Yeah it was, but it's obvious that housemates are going to keep coming in every week with the power to nominate. There aren't any big suprises.

Too much competition this week, and the schedulers are messing the slots up.

A combination of the competition being pretty strong from BGT and the apprentice and I think having all girls at the start and it not being good as some previous years up to a point.

It will pick up again when BGT ends and with a more equal house.

Yeah, there's strong competition from other channels, which is a shame.

It's not just laughing at crap acts, the last 3 days have been the top acts put through and most of them are very talented and that's what people are tuning in for.

I know some people here will crucify me for saying this but I blame the racist problems BB has had since CBB. The program is regarded as and joked on radio and other television programs as "the racist show".

Maybe alot of people are embarressed to admit they watch a program which allowed so much bad stuff to happen in CBB even though C4 acted swiftly to remove the racist this year (Emily). It's just too little, too late...?

Well this is one issue which may be a cause of low ratings.

I'll be honest, nothing has happened in Big Brother this week. It's the 2nd most boring series after Big Brother 4. I'd rather watch Britain's Got Talent

Big Brother could get called a cruel show and though, people booing housemates and people hating them.Plenty of people from these type of shows have forged successful music careers.Girls Aloud, Will Young, Lemar,Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood,Daughtry etc, they all came from reality shows.

If Big Brother came up with some GOOD twists and tasks then maybe i'd enjoy it more, but at the moment nothing exciting or worth watching is happening.
