Enjoy all 🙌

Those were the days!

It wasnt bad on channel 5

That season with Gemma Collins, Megan mckenna, scotty t from geordie shore was unmatched telly imo

The whole David's dead thing came from that season too

Ahmed just oblivious to it all!

God that gave me the rage just watching that, Marco and Emma were fucking awful, I would have loved to see Jason knock fuck out of the marco.

But how long did BB let that go on before they intervened! 😱 I do wish C4 would take it back. It’s been absolute shite since they let it go. I only watch it for nostalgia now.

Also note the housemates in that clip … not one love island pretty boy to be seen. All pretty normal and varied characters and that’s why it worked.

David’s dead was absolute comedy gold 😂 I don’t even know why it was so funny but it was!

”you told her David was dead!”
“He is!!”
“He’s in bed asleep!!”

“oh wait, maybe she meant David Bowie?”
“but he ain’t dead either!”

😂

My favourite was 'Rackie?? Yes Rackie!' Those were the days...

Sorry, I did both those in a Scooby pronunciation when the first should have been 'Jackie' due to Brigitte having less facial surgery affecting her speech!

Sam didn’t seem that shocked being told it was a fake eviction

Oh I think he did

Sam was absolutely gobsmacked. He thought Nancy was going and so did Nancy.

Live feed last night was terrible. We weren't shown much and what we did see was a house very much subdued with drunk Auntie Caroline the only one trying to get things livened up. Seems she showed her arse to the secret conclave of self-appointed house bosses in the snug so we may see that tonight. Otherwise it looked as though something had happened during the day and everyone was very down and went to bed early.

We won't see the fallout from the secret roomers going in to the house today [if that's what happens] until tomorrow's highlights.

It is a dull series. I’m barely keeping on with it but there is just enough to keep me interested.

I saw the bit with Feyisola crying because Jenny has accused her of being inappropriate by flirting with Zelah. I’m sure she is terrified about having everyone gang up on her, like she has encouraged when anyone else has been seen as saying anything wrong.

The David's dead scene i think is the funniest thing I've ever seen on TV

I think that was the same series that Tiffany took down Gemma Collins in the diary room which was almost as hilarious

I agree that sam was shocked as he thought nancy would go

I really don't like him anymore, he was 50% to blame for their gossiping but has happily let her take the blame and said he 'wants to know who he is outside of her' like she is a controlling force

A little misogynistic of him I think there

God Gemma Collins

Shes in im a celeb this year I think 👀

I remember the guy from the xfactor (the one with the nan) being her side kick for a bit

And her terrorising steph, who was a mess herself

Daniella westbrook came across alright that year though

I think Feyisola's playing the game and now playing to the camera letting on she's romantically interested in Zelah knowing it will be shown to the public who will hopefully keep her in longer to see how this showmance will develop.

Really 👀👀

You dont think she fancies zelah at all though?

I find her so embarrassing 😭😭

Aaah! Those were indeed the days - back when Housemates were actual people and not caricatures!
Life was good back then 👌

The celeb BBs on C5 weren't bad but the civilian ones were rubbish. I can only remember a few of the C5 era HMs, whereas I remember a lot of the C4 ones. Didn't think it was possible for ITV to make a worse job of the civvy version but they've managed it, particularly with this one. I'll be pissed off if they use low viewing figures to finish it off when it's their poor choice of HMs and mismanagement of tasks, ignoring nom rules for the favoured ones etc.

Back to Feyisola. I too wondered whether she was giving herself a bit of 'added interest' by suggesting a romantic connection. She's already got control of the house - almost everyone is on eggshells around her.

If Sam and Nancy hadn't gifted the house a reason for nominating them last week I wonder if she would have been up. Tomorrow's noms should be more interesting.

The last 2 civilian series have been ok, they just made a bad choice of housemates with this lot.

They'd probably get higher viewing figures if they just replayed all the original series to be honest 😂
It's scary to think that when BB launched
in 2000, 10 of the current BB25 weren't born or even conceived! 😱

<in total denial> I'm not old!!!😭

Omggg 😄 same

I would love to go back and watch tne old ones
