I seem to remember this being a thing that people wanted? It can only be good news, anyway...

Top of the mornin' to ya TV3

Wait? wasn't it aired in ireland :laugh: ?

Well they can get fecked if they think there going to swamp the show with applications :idc:

do you think Ashleigh would have won last year if this happened?

I don't think it's been aired on a main channel since the move to Channel 5, although you could watch it if you had Sky. Or watched it... well, not legally.

Ohhhh

I thought it was always aired but you couldn't vote from Ireland :suspect:

Who?

Nope, Channel 5 isn't licensed to broadcast in Ireland.

No, because I think more of Irish people than to assume that they would vote for a housemate simply because of where they came from...

que raph

this made me giggle for some reason.

surely having more applicants is a good thing because it makes the chance of recruits less likely

I sometimes do it

I voted Samanda(West midlands)
Sam (I'm half welsh)

I always vote based on where the housemate's from. That's why I stanned... erm... Bonnuh and Steve Gill... :umm2:

but i did not vote for white dee :omgno:

I do that.
I voted Jason Cowan because I'm a 1/4 Scottish. I threw Nadia a vote because I'm an 8th Portuguese.

i voted nadia coz i'm 1/2 trans (i feel like a woman i just wanna keep my dick)

I don't even vote at all.

If I did, I would have a pretty huge phone bill, as the majority of the contestants are from London.

Idk if you are being serious

Wasn't Ashleigh Northern Irish?

Regional voting does happen, and it can definitely swing close votes.

Imo Republic Of Ireland aren't apart of the UK so they shouldn't be able to vote on the show, but I honestly don't care about them broadcasting it though.
