Half of the conversations during tonight's highlights seemed scripted and I'm disliking Marcus 2.0 very much! Even BB seems to be talking to them differently, or am I just being picky now?
As for Bit on the Side... Goodness me, kill me now! Why are the VTs so delayed? The presenters seem to wait a good few seconds and just stare into the camera before they start, looks stupid... And as for that spunking dog?! Even Russell Brand would turn his nose up at THAT!
I very much doubt it's scripted, that's a cynical opinion people have had of BB for many years now but clearly isn't the case. And hasn't Marcus 2.0 been on the go for several years now anyway?
As for BotS, last night's show did have a few messed up segments, but the episodes prior had been done pretty well. It seems that it's not only Emma who takes the weekend off, and that some of the production team are different, as were the team looking after the website later in the show.
I doubt it's scripted too! It just seemed quite 'forced' to me, I don't think I'm explaining it as well as I mean!
RE Marcus: Compare his narration in BB11 to now, I guess that's down to the script editors obviously, and I guess '2.0' has been running for a while, I preferred his early days narration... BB1: Day One. BB11: Daaaaaaaay oneee. etc
BOTS is all over the place to me, it's only saving grace is Emma. It's a joke they're showing most clips from the highlights instead of bits we haven't saw.
Very impressed with the ratings it's getting, so I think I'm in the minority and just a whinger!
