Big Brother UK - Season 9

Tbh I wouldn't have minded if it was from someone who clearly watches (and enjoys) the show and would have just let it pass without comment but I just find it pointless that some people comment repeatedly on programmes they don't like. Its just a bit pointless and they must have plenty of free time especially if they watch it just to pass negative comments on it. You don't follow other aspects of life you don't enjoy such as eating foods you don't like so it puzzles me why some people repeatedly watch TV they don't like just to post about it in a negative way.

Don't you have a go at Lorna!

She got "Mans" you know, serious "Mans" that could do "pow, pow, pow"!

Oh i watch. Thats the thing with BB when there is nowt else on i like to dumb my brain with people watching. I draw the line at BBBgob. Russel brand turned me off.

BBhas had its day i would rather 3 weeks of CBB. Not that hijack crap.

Davina was much better than usual tonight without the constraints of having to read out the phone numbers every five minutes.

I agree - a good show over all. Davina conducted a good interview with Alex, who herself got the right balance of defending herself and showing a bit of self awareness (I wouldn't call it remorse).

And for the first time since BB4 a housemate has entered with minimal fuss. Hopefully now unless someone else quits or is booted Stuart will be the last late arrival of the season.

This is a forum of opinions, some you'll agree with some you'll disagree with, some are well informed some ill informed, but one things for sure, you won't stop people making them. And why should you ?

This is not a pink and fluffy place where people only write nice things.

What do you count as minimal fuss ? This housemate had all the fanfare of the opening night, motorbike, live crowd, Davina, don't they ususally come in during BBLB through the front door with a pizza ?

Hmm, she wasn't showing a single bit of self awareness in my view.

Ermm...Alex mentioned HEAT magazine three times in the first 2 mins, that's self-awareness and profitting from alleged bullying.

I'm sure it will go far in Croydon (where she famous, innit)

Ah I see, totally agree. I misunderstood where Brekkie was coming from.

You've never had reasoned debate then? Moron.

On a lighter note, I flicked onto Channel 4 after 8 out of 10 cats and the set looks rather nice for the interviews. Shame the rest of it was still dross.

I hope I got my point across about unprovoked personal attacks and for the few of you that seen the big post before it got deleted about debating without being personal then I hope you take something from it.

Big apology though goes to miss hellfire. As you can tell I'm not that much of a regular visitor to TV Forum so its hard to fit in, know whos who, know peoples posting styles etc so I wasn't aware that it was in jest.

I didn't come here to argue and I hope to get on with you all in my future posts but be a little more tolerant and welcoming to us less regular posters and newbies in the future though eh, you might scare most of them off without giving them a chance

You've no need to apologise Tom0 - unfortunately here lately discussion has increasingly turned to attacking the posters rather than debating the topic.


Getting back on topic, and they didn't really manage to hold on to their ratings increase from Thursday night. Last night (without C4+1) got 3.3m and 3.0m - though if you knock of the last 5 mins of the second show (which included just ads with 2m switching off) that jumps to 3.4m.

I think it's been a pretty bad idea to push back the second show to 10.30pm on Fridays - they'd have been better off opting for a 90 minute show from 9pm, then keeping The Friday Night Project on Fridays at 10.30pm.
