Day 7 Best Bits: We’re off to see the pictures, the wonderful pictures of Big Brother’s Wizard of Oz-themed task. You’ll be seeing this on your telly tomorrow night.

I’ve just caught up on Big Brother, and I have to say: I actually love the new editing style.

The flashbacks and montages mean the action isn’t completely linear, so it flows better than it used to. The name graphics mean Marcus doesn’t have to introduce every scene, so he’s a welcome presence instead of an irritant.

And the fact the changes are geared towards “casual” viewers means I don’t feel like I “have” to watch every day to know what’s going on. That makes a long series of Big Brother feel less daunting and makes me want to watch every episode.

If they could just start subtitling Paddy and Pamela’s conversations, it’d be perfect.

Day 5 Best Bits: We’re issuing a severe Shirtless Darryn Alert for these latest House photos, which are hot off the Press Lady’s… well, press.

Day 2 Best Bits: The Press Lady just sent us these pictures of the celebs’ first full day in the Big Brother House. Lots of sunbathing!

In total, 8m tuned in to CBB at some point during the hour and a half show. Channel 4 must be weeping.

The press lady didn’t send us these ones. Favouritism is what it is. :(
