Ford echoes the sentiment. "We have really taken it away from the shackles of social experimentation," he says. "People are enjoying it a lot more, it is more honest."

I personally wish it was back to the old Channel 4 days where it DID mean something...i think this series while fun has been a bit too tacky for my liking.

I think the person that said that needs a reality check tbh, how can they say it's more honest when they can edit it whatever way they like due to lack of live feed and most of the people I know who use to love it are turning off.
