Default Natural flowing series or loads of twists?

What do you want for BB15?

Natural flowing series are better imo

They might as well have scripted BB14, I hate the **** twists that will apparently rock the house but end up being a load of rehashed horse **** that the housemates were expecting anyway

Natural flowing >

I'm all for the occasional twist but by the sounds of it this series will pretty much be based on constant twists.

A good balance. Some twists can be great to mix things up.

For example BB6 got it spot on, not too many twists and the ones they did do were well timed.

BB7 over egged it. Way too many and became desperate attempts to hold onto specific housemates.

Natural flowing.

I'm watching BB2 at the minute and that is very entertaining at the minute and there's been no twists yet where I'm at (unless you count Josh about to come in soon) but I don't think that's as annoying as all these house next door twists every year.

Natural with maybe a twist in the middle of the series, but I'm getting fed up with launch night twists.

I bloody love twists, more towards the end though, once everyone has got comfortable.

I'd like the odd twist, but not an entire series full of them. I mean, when they're used all the time, they stop being twists imo.

Hmm, can't judge on Channel 5 shows but I'd say somewhere in the middle. Big Brother 5 got it spot on, in my opinion, but I may be biased considering that and Big Brother 7 are my favourite series'.

They have taken the word twist and ruined it completely imo, every week we have Marcus roaring that we will see THE BIGGEST TWIST EVER!!!!!!! and 9 times out of 10 its a let down.

Im so sick of hearing "ROCK THE HOUSE" and "twist" every time I switch it on.

There have been a few occasions that could have been epic like Michael, if they had used him properly and not done such an amateur job but instead activated him a week or 2 into the series after he had gained everyones trust.

Everyone sussed him straight away and the shredded suitcases part was such a flop, they all knew nothing was in them.

With Jack and Joe they could have given them the secret room from day 1 and have them pretend they were 1 housemate.

Instead I imagine producers sitting in crisis meetings daily thinking the public need to see a twist every single week or the show is crap when actually its nice just to watch the house and relationships form naturally most of the time.

The other problem with lots of twists is the housemates are expecting it and a major enjoyable part of a twist (god ive said that like a million times now) is the housemates reactions.

So to conclude lol I would rather a series with a lot less manipulation from Big Brother.

Although I do believe that they are just using twists a little bit too much, it's probably makes people watch it more, that aren't fans like we are.

If they use twists to save some of my favourites like Dexter and Gina I don't mind at all. I don't really mind them tbh..

Yeah, one thing I'm thankful for is that so far we haven't heard the phrase "the biggest twist EVER" when in reality we've seen that twist done 12 times and it was only ever entertaining the first time.

I loved the bedsit, loved the secret garden and thought the house next door was ok.

Every secret area/house since has been repetitive and crap. They need to stop with the rooms where some housemates watch the others. It's lost all effect and never actually achieves much.

It's sf annoying every task has to rely on shock tactics like revealing bitching or outside opinions

Yes, any twist that involves playing diary room sessions or anything into the house is big NO from me.

It's not good when they start to distrust the diary room, when it should be the one place they can feel they can be honest and not worry about what they're saying.

The only time playing conversations into the house worked for me was when Derek's bitching was shown as a punishment. They overdo that nowadays.

They're expecting twists, and looking for them. They've got to be creative and think of something new. The same old mole/secret task/secret room thing is dead in the water.

A good twist on launch is good and maybe something mid-way through, but I prefer a natural flowing game with normal nominations each week. Face-to-face and friends and family nominations are not twists, and should be banned.
