Default Which \"second house\" was most entertaining to watch?

For me it was either the Bedsit or the Secret Garden.

Bedsit or the secret garden because its what started it all. It was all new back then but they've just *****d the idea and now its an awful idea.

I'd say Secret Garden. I didn't think the HND was too bad the first time round.

The Halfway House twist was terrible.

1. The Bedsit.
2. The Secret Garden.
3. The House Next Door.
4. The Halfway House.

Looks like I'm ranking them from the original to the most recent... The concept of it all was fantastic back in 2004 because it was new, exciting and the tension was mounting as viewers waited for Emma and Michelle to return to the house. It was brilliant again in 2005, probably because Makosi was the only one who knew and played it so well and because of the delightful Kinga. Then by 2006 it became boring because it wasn't new. But 2007 took the biscuit and ruined the whole idea of a second house - not because of the housemates, but because of the way it was all put together.

By far the BB5 bedsit. Amazing idea! Letting Emma and Michelle control the main house was halarious to watch! Even though Victor and Jason were amazing housemates, I couldn't help laughing when they made Victors shower freezing and egged Jasons bed Also, nice and origional. The first time we saw the second house being used and a massive twist for back then.

The house next door idea I thought was really good I loved the first one because it was a newish idea. Also I loved the way it saved Aisleyne from eviction (Even if it was up against Suzie who was sure to go. Still you never know) The new housemates were entertaining, but the actual idea of the twist didn't live up to the potential it had. I'd also like to randomly add that the HND looked fab both times around! Much better designed than the main house lol

The second time the HND was used, I thought it would just be a drab repeat of the first one earlier in the series, though as soon as I found Nikki was re-entering I automaticly supported the twist! lol Also, I really liked the way Imogen and Richard entered and the way Grace got back into the house for 24 mins for her 24th birthday present. Still think Aishleyne should have got into a row with her though. Felt bad for ea not getting to re-enter, especially after Richard promising to get her back in.

I never really caught onto the Secret Graden, but then again I was on holdiay and only caught up with 1 episode. Liked the way only Makosi knew and they had to smuggle stuff in though

The halfway house was a dreadful, technical and confusing twist. It was a tweaked version of the last series HND. It was dull to watch and the new housemates produced from it matched the twist. The first night of it also seemed rushed and ill-prepared.

Oh and you forgot about the CBB5 slave quarters.

I immensly enjoyed the bedsit and it really made BB5 for me. Emma and michelle were the perfect choice for it aswell. I found it very entertaining having them work for BB and punishing all the people I hated. Emma was at her funniest too!

The secret garden was really good to, the decor was amazing. Kinga was great and should've been chosen to go into the house instead of Orlaith or Eugene (didn't like either of them but maybe Orlaith and Kinga because Orlaith's Irish, she probably wouldn't have taken the money and Derek most likely wouldn't have been evicted). And it included my favourite housemate of BB6, Makosi.

The Housemate door was good, the decor was freshh and fun but I dislike all the housemates in there including Aisleyne. Had it been Nikki or Richard it would hae been much more enjoyable. Like Makosi, Aisleyne chose the wrong person to enter the house not that I loved Jonathon but Spiral was such a tw*t even if he was Irish!

Second time round the decor was even better I just wished they would've showed more footage of it. Also they should have chosen someone like Sam or Lisa that would get on the other lots nerves and that we hadn't seen enough of. Thought it was a good idea to have let Richard and Imogen in too!

The halfway house was horrid. My first thought was OMG I hate all of them! The decor was drab, the housemates were creepy (eg Jonty) and once again they shouldn't have chosen Kara Louise and David. Shanessa would've been much more fun! The only good thing about it was that Tracey was up for eviction (pity she didn't go with David!).

I think The Bedsit was the most entertaining. It was so exciting. As i (last few weeks) watched it, i was gripped. The whole tension with Michelle and Emma really made the Bedsit the best secret BB ever had.

The secret house next door (BB7) was ruined because of the 'sound proof' room.

The main housemates more or less expected it by Wednesday's show.

House Next Door with Lea, Nikki, Grace, Mikey, Imogen and Richard.

And Aisleyne was good too.

I also liked the Bedsit.

Thought the Halfway-House was rubbish.

Secret garden I don't remember...and the HMs were crap, apart from Kinga.

Bedsit. Decent amount of time, good concept and good housemates.

Secret Garden was too short, and too boring. They had nothing to do.

I'd say the Secret Garden, but it's close between that and the Bedsit. It was the aftermath of the Bedsit which was most interesting to watch. Although "fake" evicting two housemates was revolutionary in itself back in 2004.

I found the Secret Garden really exciting to watch, mainly due to Makosi. It gave us so many memorable moments, most notably "Cidergate".
