I wouldn't want the crowd to disappear though tbh - they just need to stop encouraging negative crowd reactions (i.e booing/chanting), stop letting the regulars in that start the chants/booing, tell the crowd to be quiet during interviews and start doing the eviction announcements in the studio. Lager audiences have always been a part of Big Brother and I don't want that to disappear.

I honestly think VTE plays a large part in making the show more hateful too. The last civilian series where there wasn't a "Get ____ Out" chant every single week was BB13, and that may be partly because you were rooting for people to stay in on eviction nights rather than wanting someone to go (e.g. people wanted Arron/Conor gone in the ABCD eviction, but were more bothered about Deana staying - and she ended up topping the vote, getting cheers etc.)

I know I look like I'm reaching but I do feel that VTE brings more negativity to the show
