Some of the most bizarre moments of that: > Emma (BB5) being an 'actress' > Michelle (BB5) having the strangest accent I've ever heard > Maxwell (BB6) calling himself a 'catch' > The inability of the programme to spell some of the housemates' surnames correctly

I have now caught this twice, and both times I have caught it from Narinder onwards.
Can someone please update me on Anna's progress? Please tell me she is doing something intellectually stimulating and rather wonderful, or I shall be very disappointed. If she is a handywoman on the Irish version of DIY SOS I may kill myself.
PS: Though Makosi was a complete cunt, she did it in a fantastic way, as opposed to Anthony, who is clearly the bad kind of complete cunt (if that makes sense). Why didn't she win?!? Her film looks arse though.

I can't believe that Endemol and C4 don't bother to keep caption-free versions of BB.

Agreed about Anthony.
Also, Ahmed's little bedsit made me sad.

I can't believe that Endemol and C4 don't bother to keep caption-free versions of BB. I always think that. Fair enough if you're watching a clip on something like GMTV and there's the "Live" tag in the corner of the screen but when you're watching a programme made by the people who produce and broadcast the show and the tag has been simply blurred out it does look a bit unprofessional. I always thought that they film the show on a 5 minute delay for live broadcasting which would suggest the the footage exists first and then all the extra screen things get added on prior to it being broadcast. Maybe someone on these boards has more of an understanding into how things like this work. Back to the show though, Emma's film looks like it's been filmed on a camcorder. Is she realy having visions of Hollywood or was she being sarcastic? It looked like it was filmed solely in a council house. The more I see of Anna the more I love her. She's done really well for herself and how gorgeous is she now! Narinder has obviously been having speech lessons, she used to have an Indian lilt to her voice, now she's all RP. Jason just looks wierd beyond belief, like the Incredible Hulk dressed up as a civilian. Craig has ballooned and is still disillusioned over the Anthony thing. "Anthony was chasing me, they could easily have put a different slant on things if they wanted." Whatever. Nice to see Anthony is still as cunty and supercilious as ever. What gets me is the lads who all reckon their record is gonna be the next big thing. Especially Science and Victor. Is there something in the Big Brother rules that dictates that all working class black male housemates have to speak in riddles and verse and have the ability to say something without actually saying anything at all? As much as I hate to say it, roll on BB8

Maybe someone on these boards has more of an understanding into how things like this work. There's absolutely no excuse why they shouldn't have a clean feed without the graphics. But it seems they forget every single year, despite the fact they know they'll need to repeat shows or use the footage later on in 'revisit' shows. I can even recall one occasion where the voting numbers were displayed on a strap across the bottom of the screen, so for this clip show, they had to crop the picture and enlarge it. Ended up looking like a frowsy YouTube clip.

My flatmate was watching the show and I caught this bit. I believe my exact words were: "Of course he was. Shut up, you silly little fucking queer." See, this show really brings out a side of me I don't like.

The happiness I felt on hearing that Saskia and Maxwell broke up and he went back to live with his mum was almost limitless. After six months of sleeping on the sofa! The best bit was him putting his sad little suitcase in the back of a van.

There was a great deal of schadenfreude for me at seeing just how bad some of my most disliked housemates were looking:
Josh BB2 looking even more camp and deluded than ever,Tim BB3 looking bloated, greasy and sweaty, the train-wreck that was Craig BB6 looking enormously fat after just two years, the personalityless slapper that was Sam BB6 looking dog rough and best of all ginger gurner Jason BB5 looking like a painted wax work dummy.
I was never an Ahmed fan, but I did feel really sorry for him in his sad little bedsit.
I always hated 'Anfonee', the orange halfwit. I've no idea how he managed to win. Eugene and Kinga the Bottle Bank were both much nicer people than he was, and Makosi might have been a backstabbing biatch, but at least she had some charisma.
Anna reminded me why she is still my favourite Big Brother housemate after all this time. She looked great, was very naturally funny and charming, and seems to have made a relatively decent career out of being on Big Brother. Speaking of which, I am also glad Alison BB3 is still doing OK as a TV presenter, as she was great, and kicked out of BB far too early in my opinion.

Saskia is still working - as what?

What gets me is the lads who all reckon their record is gonna be the next big thing. At least they actually appear to be making an album. What gets me is the amount of female housemates who've apparently tried for a music career without it ever being explained what it is they did to do so.

For "making an album", read "I've hired a recording studio".
Schadenfreude is right.

Agreed about Anthony. Also, Ahmed's little bedsit made me sad. I'm sure I saw Ahmed's little bedsit on Location, Location, Location once. If it was in London wouldn't it be worth at least £250,000?

I'd like to add:
I loved Makosi. She was just brilliant television but she pushed it too far with the whole 'I Think I May Be Up The Duff,' stuff. If anybody deserved to be manipulated by her expert hand though, it was those vulpine degenerates Saskia, Maxwell, Anthony and Creepy Craig.
Anna is amazing.
I'm not interested where the contestants of Big Brother 4 are. Because they were boring.
Maxwell's cheeky chappie shtick really, really grated on me.
Aisleyne is also amazing.
