I think it only makes a difference in the celebrity series. sam wouldn't have had a fanbase without being on towie and I very much doubt would've been saved in the normal show.

Sam Evans doesn't count because he's a fhittie.

I wanna see this 'source'.

Channel 5 know well and truly how much VTS is better for them, both in the views of the public and the profits made from it.

We can find small problems with both voting systems. For example, if BB14 had a vote to save then Sallie most likely would have survived the first eviction and Dexter would have probably left. Equally, in this past CBB, Sam continuously survived with a vote to save despite being one of the most useless housemates we've ever had.

However, I'd say vote to save is far more reliable and 9 times out of 10 an entertaining housemate is more likely to be evicted in a VTE than they are in a VTS. To convert back to that voting system would frankly be ridiculous but I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if they did.

[Slevin]

yea there is problems in both but i prefer VTS. especially for the first week of last years series. then again that was the public decision and that was some horrid rancid **** they came up for the noms.

[Jords]

VTS is more unpredictable, meaning the Friday show is more fun. Theyre idiots.

[Jords]

Id be interested in the stats behind the voting.

Im guessing VTS pulls more votes in the celeb edition because people want to keep their celebrity 'idols' in whereas in the civilian edition perhaps VTE pulls more votes because people bay for blood and arnt as influenced to keep a HM in whom they did not know beforehand.

For money it probably makes sense, for the quality of the show, not so much.

Ben Frow last year said it changed back to evict because he thought its 'what people wanted', along with the other changes to the show.
BUT when it changed back to Evict, there were loads of people moaning about it. Kind of weak of him if you are ask me, 'VTS' is the unique thing about Channel 5s BB. Bringing back 'VTE' just made it seem like a poor mans channel 4 BB.
Im hoping he has learnt a lesson that you can NEVER please all the BB fans all of the time, and just go with the common sense system.

VTS is literally only good when there's a scrappy underdog to get saved every week. Otherwise is kinda sucks!

[chuff me dizzy]

Brilliant !!

Hence why I said it only works if there's a scrappy underdog...

[Scream]

I just don't understand it...people will be more reserved if it's VTE :l

[Headie]

VOTE TO SAVE NEEDS TO STAY.

Vote To Evict SUCKS!

[Samm]

I think they used BB14 as a test to see if Vote to evict works I don't think it will come back as they have used VTS for 2 series now (CBB12 & 13)

[BBDodge]

They must have loads of annoying housemates lined up that voters will be hitting redial to get rid of.

[MrMinaj]

im guessing we will know for sure when the website is updated, as it still appears to be a celebrity big brother page, even though it finished ages ago.
you would think the site would be up and running now at least to create a buzz for the new series !

[Headie]

Stop responding to this thread, there's no source or evidence to suggest they're changing from VTS AGAIN.

[Lostie!]

I'm confused. People always complain about VTE, but did you very people not watch (and enjoy) BB on C4? It's a little strange that people claim VTE will ruin the series, yet pine for the C4 days.

I mean, if you've only watched since the C5 days, or if you, for some reason, watched on C4 but hated it all, fine. I just don't get the ones who prefer the C4 BB, but then act like VTE is a series' death sentence. Is that not quite the contradiction?

But vte was bad on 4 too - for example Nikki going in a all up (bar Jayne)

There were only 2 series that had a perfect eviction order - 5 and 6 and that's because in 5 the interesting ones were mainly popular with the public and in 6 because the interesting ones had control of the house.

because channel 5 are sh*t at picking housemates and we only get about 5 entertaining/controversial ones, that's why people prefer VTS now. Me personally, idc

[reece(:]

VTE needs to diaf.

[Jemal]

Tbh with you vote to evict in bb14 did kind of work..
I mean all the entertaining housemates apart from sallie. But mainly dexter and gina stayed till the end.

I literally don't think its a big deal.
VTS or VTE who the **** cares.
I certainly Don't.
