definitely died for me. I have tuned in for the first week of each series but could not bear:


a) the cast list

b) BB's endless tinkering

c) THAT woman (Davina)


It's not fatigue.. if I watch an earlier series the relative simplicity of the format made for enjoyable enough viewing but it's nigh on unwatchable nowadays

I'm loving this series. I've been properly hooked from the start. And generally I HATE it. This year's misfits have been compelling but they are so awful I don't know why I find it interesting.


Thank god that Tracey went on Friday. She looks too much like Dennis Pennis to me:

Looking forward to the last week. I'm sure Liam will win.

I reckon this is about the third series I have watched... and none has beaten the simplicity of the first.

I watch the Big Brother on the Couch because I like the pop psychology element of it. The rest of it I take and leave as and when - I've gone weeks this year without watching it, then I'll dip in for a few days. People always describe Big Brother as something akin to an addiction whereas the beauty of the format is that it is impossible to miss anything of vital importance even if you don't watch for ages.


I'd like Brian to win this year.

I think I'm the only person I know who has never watched BB. I've sat thru a couple of 'episodes' at friends houses, and never understood why anyone would watch it. I'm still mystified by it's popularity, but don't watch a lot of TV anyway.

having watched nearly all of them i agree that this year knocks the socks of the previous 2 (the last decent one being when nadia one in my humble opinion) but, this year as soon as they introduced the half way house i just lost any interest.


i was interested to read that the phone voting was still making c4 a packet yet i don't know anyone watching this year. what i will always love about bb is the passion is sparks in people becuase when people hate it they really HATE IT and they have to repeatedly tell you why you're a moron for watching it.

Have you also noticed how ex-BB watchers are like ex-smokers in many respects?


My personal highlight was lipless Ziggy and Chanelle's 'relayshunship'. It was like watching him drive in slow motion into a pile-up, again and again, whilst using his cock to steer instead of his hands.

The only reason they haven't offended anyone is because they are incapable of coherent speech.


They are fit though well one of them is. The other is carrying a bit of extra timber on her face which makes her look like she's got mumps in comparison to her sister.

Ahh.. Jonty. To quote Charlie Brooker (again):


Jonty (should win), for his startling quasi-resemblance to Mark Lawson - not the closest lookalike ever, but close enough to make it vaguely possible that some day soon Lawson will be walking down the street only to find himself suddenly surrounded by squealing teenage Big Brother fans jumping up and down and taking his photo, while a van driver zooms past parping his horn and bellowing "Jontyyyyyy you fuckahhhh!" out the window

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
