Big Brother 7 starts May 18th

I did a google on last year's contestants and there was a very lurid tabloid piece (from a couple of months ago) about how Makosi was on her uppers. By going on BB she was in breach of her immigration conditions, and was threatened with deportation. To fight this she had run up legal bills of £32 000. According to the tabloid (can't remember which one) she can't get another job as a nurse, because of her antics on the show, and has been intermittently working as a "high class" £1500 a time call girl.

Is anyone like me and generally hates the first week or so? Its all noise and shouting and people pretending to be interesting and exciting. Its only after a couple of weeks that it starts to settle down and get interesting.

Yep. There's just too much noise! Especially the year they had Marco et al. Had to keep turning the volume down. Last year as well even when they all sat down to dinner was excruciatingly painful. I do however like the total transparent falseness at the very beginning of the show when they all try to join in with everything like random group exercise classes.

you'll just end up feeling left out and listening at the door to the general hilarity and shrieks of disbelief. :cool:
 
Hurrah! Two pages already, and it hasn't even started (and I'd bet half the posts on this thread are people moaning how awful it is :p )

I went to the auditions this year...I wanting to kill most of the people there in the face, and there was lots of forced whooping and hollering. It was really quite depressing. There was a very nice boy stood behind us though, on his own, listening to his ipod for several hours. He has wisely written down topics to talk to the producers about on his hand, and at the top was OCD...
 
I agree about the first couple of weeks being a load of unwatchable screaming, but I LOVE the frst night. Even if it is just mostly 'cause I'm praying for the next contestant they introduce to be crush-worthy. Or a woman who isn't wearing a miniscule skirtand who doesn't look like a complete slut. :rolleyes:
I think Anna might be the only example of that. Surely we're due another one. (who is not necessarily a lesbian). :)

Quite. What BB needs is nice, normal ladies, who don't turn into inane, giggling flirts around the men, and then bitch and back bite amongst all the girls. Try using your personality, rather than your boobs, or even on really bad occasions, your snatch. Ewww!
 
ha ha! the perfect birthday present for relahni ;)

i will start of hating it...until about the third week, then i'll be hooked :D (but hate the fact that i am hooked)

the telly in the bedroom doesn't have the technology to use freeview - perhaps you could buy a new telly :D

Has McCall got it in her contract that she has to be heavily pregnant for every run of Big Brother? how many bloody kids does that woman have?

is she pregnant again?

She is with baby number three. Remember reading that this years final is going to be pretty close to her due date so Dermot will be on standby.
 
I know we get stupid pre-BB rumours every year, but PLEASE let it be true that "King of the chavs" Mickey Carroll is going in as the celebrity contestant.
Picture the scenes when he runs out of Stella. :D

STOP BIG BROTHER
join the fight
 
So as i was writing on my other, now useless, thread - apparently this year they are ALLOWING THE CONTESTANTS TO DISCUSS NOMINATIONS.

That is all I wanted to say.

P.S. seeing as this thread will inevitabley grow to 30 pages i expect not to see this post again.
P.P.S. Well done lemon for starting it. In 2002 i think i started the bb thread and saw it grow :D
 
I heard that rumour. That would be interesting.

I don't want it to start getting all complicated and 'you join our team and I won't vote for you' bollocks though, like that other reality island show.

Ohh, I wish they'd just keep it simple.
 
Yes, I really, really hope that doesn't happen. All the subtlety and second-guessing would be taken out of the nomination process and we'd just end up with a straight public popularity contest.
Not good at all, and very bad for business. :(
 
They could alternate. "This week you can discuss nominations".. next week they can't. That would confuse anyone with a gameplan.
