100%, its literally love island in reverse. The first series (2015) actually had bb style live shows but the producers quickly decided it worked better without them so they only had a love final from series 2 onwards. The circle is doing the exact opposite

I think the concept of live shows is actually quite dated now, particularly when it comes to new formats. Its a small niche listening to what z listers have to say, bb didn’t even have that but emma just talking about boring **** reminded me about the worst parts of bb in its final years (cbb21 launch particularly), its quite interesting them finding out who’s who but last years format beats this by a mile.

Less is more, especially in the netflix era
