…I think also, with something like Traitors…?…it was all bright and shiny and new in that we didn’t know what to expect so we had no preconceived thoughts and expectations and hopes etc…with BB, we’ve had expectations so are analysing if you like from a different perspective of comparison to something we already know and love…
…there’s many factors, I think…BB is yet to gain the newer audience who haven’t known it before…that’s not an instant thing and Traitors for instance is particularly fast paced in format because every day someone leaves and there are two sources of leaving…maybe this series as well has focused on what made the show popular back in the day and what the original fans would want…but also needs to focus on the things that new fans would wan and hope for…that’s all a pretty big ask so I think they’re doing ok …maybe not the ratings they hoped for but TV shows aren’t watched in the same way as back in the day either…
