Big Brother Is On Holiday In Margate

Just been laughing my head off over this rip-off of "Demon Seed". Wish they kept the automaton BB going for a bit longer, and the malfunctioning could have done with a few days more of that. The idea worked really well.

Yeah - it was great. I loved it in last night`s episode when Big Brother "came back", and Glyn went to the Diary Room and was saying:

"Did you really go on holiday??"
"...how could you go and leave us...?"

Ah - bless... :D

I wish they had kept it going longer as well, with more and more stuff malfinctioning. Like the lights or the door locks, and maybe have a few weird noise play over the speakers in the middle of the night, or tell them at 3am that the store room is now open, etc. :)

It amazed me how much the HMs blured reality with what BB said was going on. It wasn`t just Glyn who thought they had really gone away and weren`t watching them anymore!

So actually what you really need is a HAL Big Brother, who, after slowly going mad and doing weird stuff, kills all the housemates off one by one :D

That was one of the best ideas they had and could have lasted for at least a week. I guess Big Brother just needed a couple of days off, then back to it. :/
Loved the malfunction on announcing the nominations.

Lol - good idea! I can see it now: "...just what do you think you`re doing, Glyn?", "Daisy...Daisy..." :D

Such a pity that it was so brief. They can`t really do it again, even in future BB`s as it won`t work properly once we/they are in the "know".
Shame. Could have got some great stuff from that one.
