Agreed! I think if the series continues to be good people will slowly discover it again, get hooked and make it a habit. Also some controversy in the press ala Roxanne wouldnt hurt and is likely to eventually occur and hopefully bring viewers on board.

I personally felt the launch show was very slow due to the inordinate time spent with Emma interviewing the housemates families. The choice of housemates and mix were very good though, which bodes for more interesting highlight shows than the relatively slow paced launch which i believe may have switched viewers off.
