But, the 2nd series in 2006, got lower ratings, and BB7 beat it.

Honestly, with BB averaging 0.9m, I can see LI beating them in ratings. Especially as it is the revamp of the show that once got over 3m.

But, I can see the revamp getting lower ratings than the old Love Island, as it is on ITV2, instead of ITV1. Not to mention it's with ordinary people, instead of Celebrities. So people may not be interested.

I'm predicting around 1.5m for LI.

TOWIE gets about about 400-500k overnight.

ruiphillips · 02-06-2015, 01:18 PM

I'll check it out.

Will. · 02-06-2015, 01:19 PM

yeah I'll watch it, but its going to probably be rubbish just by looking at the contestants, there all good looking but probably have the personality of a dead dog.

Im going to have look at the original show on youtube, i was like 4 when it was on.

It was car crash TV.

I've found some clips from the 2nd series, from 2006. I can't find anything from the 1st series. But I didn't watch that one.

Sophie Anderton was mental.

Exactly, I now appreciate BB's casting more, The BB16 cast is so much more diverse compared to love island.

It's quite disgusting that ITV2 have only got people with nice bodies, as for their faces thats a different story.

Look at the diversity

Daniel-X · 02-06-2015, 05:04 PM

Sorry but it looks dreadful I was never interested in it back in its original run when it was celebrities never mind these boring looking wannabees :vom:

Liam- · 02-06-2015, 05:05 PM

Josh is beautiful though, but not enough to make me watch.

Jason. · 02-06-2015, 05:16 PM

I'm cackling at Will making a big deal over the cast not being diverse. The show isn't for you.

It's LI, not BB. It's supposed to be like that. I can't imagine a 50 year old spending five weeks in Fiji (or wherever the Island is), trying to find love with a bunch of twenty-somethings.

Again, with the nice bodies. Who'd watch Love Island if it was filled with Jack's?
Plus, since when did ugly people make a cast diverse?

A cast is diverse based on differing personalities, and differing cultures. Not if someone has a six pack or not.

Jamesy · 02-06-2015, 05:18 PM

That cast looks incredibly bland.

Still going to tune in though and see if I can get into it.

Jason. · 02-06-2015, 05:19 PM

Come to think of it.
I wish they would mix celebrities and members of the ordinary public. Instead of just having civilians.

That would've been better.
