There goes my social life for the next 3 months!!! Grin

ItStillLooksLikeRainDear · 31/05/2014 22:08

Was beginning to think I was the only one!

I was just thinking today, that I hadnt heard anything about it.
Cant decide whether to be excited or not.
Depends how it pans out I guess.
Sometimes they manipulate it too much for my taste.
And sometimes, I am not keen on who they pick as contestants.
So I will have to wait and see.

Redcoats · 31/05/2014 22:12

Is it real people or celebs?
I usually get bored of the real people. Can't even render who won last year.

Kaluki · 31/05/2014 22:13

Every year I say I'm not bothering this year and I never like them when they go in but by week 2 I'm totally hooked!!!

hashtagwhatever · 31/05/2014 22:14

Me too. Usually it will take me a few days to get into it. At first I end up thinking meh these people are no good at first. I think at first everyone talks over each other and its a bit off putting definitely by the next week I will have my favourites.

Redcoats · 31/05/2014 22:15

Me too kaluki.
I Moan about the wannabes. All the messing about with the rules. It's on for too many weeks. Blah blah blah. Still watch it though.

PacificDogwood · 31/05/2014 22:22

Oh, yawn.

I'm so bored by the whole concept now. I wish they'd let it die tbh.
I cannot bear to watch it now.

Kaluki · 31/05/2014 23:06

It's never any good till they stop acting up for the cameras and trying to be nice then you see what they are really like!!!

LoveBeingInTheSun · 31/05/2014 23:13

Yay better a few weeks in, I always watch the live shows and skip out for a bit

ItStillLooksLikeRainDear · 31/05/2014 23:14

I've vowed never to watch it again a few times but by the time the middle of May arrives I start wondering when it will start.

Then I kid myself that l will just watch the first couple of episodes to see who is on it.

Then it's - might as well see who is first to be evicted.

And so it continues...

Hell yes.

I swore not to watch again when it moved to 5 and they changed it but I can't help myself. I've watched every series. Some I haven't minded missing episodes but the last couple really picked up I thought.

Wish they would calm down in the 'twists' though.

Coumarin · 01/06/2014 02:15

Oh god sinister, I'd blocked that out!

Redcoats · 01/06/2014 09:07

I prefer the celeb one now, probably because its not on as long.

The only thing I like about c5 is the way they put the names of the HMs on screen for the first few weeks so I know hi they are. The first few weeks when they're all loud and showing off all the time are the worst. Once I get past that I'm hooked.

Kaluki · 01/06/2014 09:52

I agree the twists are a but much.
Loved the mole thing last year but I think there should be a mole in there for the whole time - that would really shake them up!

Coumarin · 01/06/2014 12:40

That was one of the things that I didn't like Red I don't notice it now.

Yy the mole was good. Wish they'd kept it going for longer. Dan would've self combusted after another couple of weeks.

linkery · 01/06/2014 14:48

I did think that the last couple of series have perked up a bit really.

Bellete · 01/06/2014 19:17

Ooh I am looking forwardBlush.I do think its a lot better than it used to be though.Great distraction for the summerBlush.I am slow to admit this in real life thoughBlush.

I'm a massive BBC fan, can't help myself. I've missed the lovely Emma Willis being off our screens for a while.

Coumarin · 02/06/2014 22:17

I love Emma Willis. I think I have a woman crush on her.
