I'm not sure Stoory - I cant help but think - tonight especially - that the housemates think it was completely between Ben n gobshoite Govan when in fact it was in no particular order and gobshoite Govan was evicted hands-down

That doesn't really bother me. What bothers me is just before they announce who's going they stop for more... f*cking...ads.

Agree totaly. The Format they have chosen this year is rubbish. Never mind who is safe., tell us who is going. Who the hell is the brain child behind these new things needs sacking. Get back to the old format, it actually worked.

i think its a bit  X factorish     everything is these days

It won't stop them speculating that Mario is the most popular though. .....Shabby thought she was first last week too......Telling them it;s in no particular order is a waste of time.

They only hear what they want.

I prefer the tell it who's going first, not a savee

I like it, it's doubling the paranoia!

Me too Low 

I can see it would in a really unconfident person........but we're talking about this lot 

they did actually do it in the order the bookies had them in, so it may well be that'no particular order' doesn't actually mean that.

i think the new format's crap. And davina attempting the "evil laugh" with it, makes me want to slap her.

Me too!

Spoils it doing it the other way round imo

It might be fun when there are only 2 of them up....

I preferred it when they just announced who was being evicted.

I don't like the long drawn out process ala Dancing on Ice and wish they would revert back to the traditional method.

It was glaringly obvious who would be the remaining 2 - any viewer would have seen that coming; predictable and pointless.

That's my take on it too. Except it doesn't really work in this sort of situation..

Most of the time there'll only be two anyway so they won't be able to do that....and by the time there's more than two again, hopefully they'll have dropped this nonsense.

The 'NO PARTICULAR ORDER' is for the HMs benefit really, but as they don't listen it's a waste of time doing that.
But then again it can skew their perception of how they are viewed by the GBP, as they are probably off thinking that it was a close run thing between Ben and Govan, whereas the reality is that the rest might as well have not been there. So even if Ben DID get the second most number of votes it's of no consequence since there were (relatively speaking) so few votes left to go around the other three.

Couldn't agrree more

They are such tiny minded people. They really DO dislike Ben because of his background, mainly.

I know he's made a few faux pas, but it's the background and upbringing that sticks in their (collective) gut.

If you were silly enough to watch BBBM last night (I did briefly & had to turn off) Davina did not stop slagging off Ben and his "poshness". The rotten audience seemed to equate manners and good upbringing with dimness. It was unbelieveable

arrgghh, i stopped watching that pile of shoite after russell left,stopped watching bblb too yet another pile of shoite.

i always liked the psychobabble shows, and diary room uncut, so they cut those and left us with the 2 piles of shoite.

It's not even that: it's his perceived background. Shabby/Keylee-Jade has quite a similar background, but she's not getting stick for it because she's been able to deflect attention away...

Davina slagging Ben off because of his posh background? 

Pot-kettle....

Like J I loved the psychobabble  stuff. I rarely watch BBBM now - only if a HM I did like was on there. The crowd get on my tits for a start - do any of them EVER watch the bloody show?

What annoys me is the fact they announce who's saved from the quiet studio then head outside where the crowd are chanting to announce the winner.

I don't like any of the new ideas on eviction night.
Announcing who is safe, only prolongs things unnecessarily.
The pauses before announcing a name doesn'tt add tension - it adds irritation.
I hate the idea of the evicted housemate leaving a good or bad day for  a housemate.
I hate the prepared few words from one or two housemates being shown to the evictee.
I don't think any of these innovations are good.

completely agree with all of your points Brisket

completely agree with all of your points Brisket

I am sure they do this in the American BB..

The one thing that's really pissing me off about the new format is the announcing of the eviction from the crowd. It's so much better when they hear nothing of the outside world once they're in the House.

I preferred it when they just announced the evictee.

It's just an excuse for C4 to make more money by shoving another ad break in between. Load of rubbish, adds nothing to the show.
