If the series is being decided by VTE, that is bad news.

We've seen in the past with VTE that mavericks and marmite characters who are often the most interesting, simply cannot last. They build up opposition amongst fans of other HMs who see them as a threat when they come up for eviction - and can easily be targeted.

With VTS, this rarely happens as opposition fans would have to vote for two, three or four HMs as well.

I predict Mathew for example (who could be one of the most interesting HMs) will not last more than a few weeks because of this. HMs like Ash are so bland that no-one will get rid of them.

I wish Channel 5 would learn from past mistakes - VTS is the answer to a much more successful show.
