At this rate all I'll purposely tune in for is the noms and evictions.

That's a given, dear.

not much time this year but am still attached as and when I can find the time to read/watch and keep up - unfortunately I may be forced to give it up depending how disruptive RL pans out over the summer 
That's how I feel every year. Once they calm down, it improves. SLIGHTLY.
I think I feel a pulse, the show can be saved.
I'm still undecided; I've loathed others more at this stage in earlier series.

After tonight - yes indeed.
Good script, still a pity about the cast though.
It is definitely showing signs of improvement.
After last nights complete overacting with all the fake screaming, I am near the point where I may be able to let go, with at least one hand anyway.. I actually FF'wded thru a lot of last nights HL's.. my poor ears
Still clinging on with the other hand tho
I'm still not sure, the part of the task where they were in the hole, Jade and Nick were sharing the same bed and they kept looking over the top of the covers and then screaming and giggling, it looked very staged to me, in fact the whole thing looks staged like BB is telling them what to discuss

I think it was more about them knowing the tasks would get shown and 'acting' so they'd get the most screen time. . huge fail on the acting front by all of them tho . .

That's the bit that really annoys me. In real life I can't tolerate much loudness or screaming. I thought Eileen was so over the top that it soon became apparent that she was playing for the cameras.
- Why would you scream when feathers or teddy bears are dropped on you?
- Why would you scream when another HM is having things dropped on them but you are not?
Last night I would have ejected Eileen there and then. Not to mention the bizarre conversations she had after the task.
- Quite happy to save the maggots!
- Weirdly she was more than happy to see people waterboarded.
I think she was seriously out of whack last night.
I agree with EC... and I so want to punch Eileen in her 'third' eye..
I actually want to punch most of the HM's if truth be told . . bunch of idiotic wannabees 
I also want to tape Aaron's whiney gob shut, and Jades and Adjoa's and well probably all of them except maybe Nick? [if he's the little lord Fauntleroy lookeelikee] , tho no doubt he'll mess up and join my huge list of incredibly annoying HM's soon
