When in fact the harder they tried to make us believe this would happen by selecting desperate idiots who would prostitute themselves for a page in some desperate magazine, the more the show failed, and the viewers, the original viewers, started turning of in their droves because of the way it was force fed to us!


The producers should never work in television again as instead of trying to recapture the viewers that they lost decided it would be a better idea to get as much column inches in those said desperate magazines with the faux romance stories that most ex viewers find nausiating.

Every programme peaks and falls, that's life. Things have changed from the earlier series because they had to. You could never get the type of show it was back then, back because it was more innocent back then because it was new and people didn't know what would come of it.

It was the type of people applying as well that helped in it's demise, trying to re create popular past HMs etc. and its pure luck picking the right contestants, I think, as most of them lie through their teeth when applying as we can see from their VTs at the start.

Last year they got lucky with their choices of HMs they were all very interesting characters (besides Sophies who won :/) I just think they have a really sh1t bunch this year tbh.
