The constant arguments won't bring viewers back. BB needs to put some fun into the house.

LI getting the viewers which BB should be getting

arthur leaving wont help and if they stick with vts it will kill the show for sure. the prods need to stop trying to manage the show for heir aims, its a fan driven show not a reality experiment for them

Yes exactly!!

I've never been a fan of the VT's, or at least how they do them now. They just ask them a load of leading questions and only show us the stuff they want us to see. Basically trying to portray someone in a slicer tain light and give you an opinion on someone (which most of the time is wrong)before you even get to see them and judge them for yourself.

Unfortunately too many people still lap them up and pick their favourites before they are all even in the house.

VT's should either go or they should change the structure of them. For example show people answering the same questions etc.

Also my biggest pet hate is evictions in the first week?! What even is that ****?!?!

LI just has that social media following that BB doesn't and couldn't have.

BB has more longevity than LI mind. The girls who adore LI will be growing out of it within the next few summers.

I think the fact love island only airs 7 weeks a year will help it

Last night's episode was a chore to watch. I was even regretting choosing BB over LI at 9 as it was just Arthur in every scene.

mess even towie gets more ratings than BBUK lol.

Love Island is complete trash in my opinion. I was given the opportunity to apply for it last year through an agency I do some work for but it didn't interest me at all. Plus I was completely out of shape then compared to most of the guys that go on there!

LI is more water-cooler than BB. It exploded last year and now almost everybody I know talks about it, most my friends/colleagues watch it and I've heard teenagers talking about it at school. It's like how everyone used to talk about BB ten years ago. I also agree that it gets a much better social media following, things like having a Snapchat filter for promotion helps massively and I think LI appeals to the younger audience much better than BB does, whereas the main demographic for BB nowadays are the cat ladies.

And on top of that, LI is the much slicker and better-produced show out of the two. They put much more effort in and the growing ratings reflect that, the same can't be said for BB anymore sadly.

Even my brother and his GF watch and enjoy LI and they're not the Reality TV type.. it's so odd lmao. I watched an episode the other day and I can see why it's winning ratings wise

Love island isn't even good? Last year's one was far better but it wasn't exactly gripping stuff. Idgi

[Jake.]

also think people are being a bit harsh on BB when it's in its 18th series compared to Love Island's 3rd
