Viewing figures were always going to be low for a series in 2009, where the media interest and viewing figures had been in a natural, slow decline ever since CBB5. Some people were naturally put off because of the lack of effort at the start, the live feed being axed and no buzz. Whatever series had aired in 2009 would have got a similar response. The first week was boring too, so some others probably turned off then and there with the **** Non housemate twist.
The tasks were weak and there was hardly any interest from casual viewers but it was the housemates that made it. Easily the best cast of the last 4 years on C4.
