I don't think they can make it any cheaper - They cut it in have from last years and gave max. 10p to charity.

The best thing they could do is scrap the public vote and go to BBUS style and get the housemates to nominate and to evict each other
Short term risk = long term sucess.

Plug the voting for all its worth , bring back text voting and interactive voting , scrap the charity [its nice and all] and toy with the idea of making the votes free. Their are other ways to make more money with the show.

All this , of course , requires a show that viewers will feel compelled to want to vote on.
I don't think they should make voting free. All them teeny-boppers would be voting non-stop 24/7 and it would make the show worse.

One vote per one household.
No , Why should we be resticted to how many votes we can make

Because you just said in your own argument 'people would vote vote vote vote vote vote vote and vote' .

Besides , one vote per person is COMPLETELY fair. Most things are done that way. Its called democracy .

Yes they would vote vote vote if its was FREE!

but if it has a cost to the votes then it would limit to how much people can vote

After i voted Brian a lot of times my phone dial tone cut out and after the final it worked again

You can make the votes free , but restrict it to one vote per household , to get everyone voting , hence the point of this discussion im having with you.

Did you not read my argument?

Hows that fair? If someone wants person A. to win he votes once , but a person who wants person B. to win votes a hundred times - its really not an accurate representation of what people think.

You are joking. That is not fair it is down right corrupt. The richest voters get to win.

Imagine multiple voting was allowed at a General election...What would result. Chaos......

The only fair and proper representation of popularity is one vote per household.....Never will happen but unless it does no winner of any TV competion show can be sure they are genuine winners......

There's no fix, but a lot of favouritism on the spin-off shows.

I'm referring particularly to BBLB *coughDermotO'LearyandhisloveforBrianandhisrefusal toallowanyoneontheshowwhohadanopinionagainstBriana ndhisattemptstoforceanyguestwhodidn'tlikeBriantosa ytheywantedhimtowinanywaycough*

I just hope a certain incompetant presenter will try doing a decent job at his show next year and actually be fair to all housemates now that he's got his own way for one series.

i admit not just because im a Twins fan but it did seem weird that Brian won after the Twins being favourite to win and slightly more popular and then when Brian won with 60% of the vote but he has won now whether it was fair or not
the Twins will go far anyway so let invesigations be done but they wont find anything which changes results
