I know online polls are only reliable to a point but there does seem to be an even bigger difference this year.

If you go by online polls it's a two horse race between Jim and Luisa and maybe Ollie with the likes of Sam faeirs nowhere in polls.

Bbspy has Luisa on 32percent and 14 clear of everyone Sam with barely 7percent

However when it comes to the vote Sam is hugely popular and Luisa struggling to get through each vote.

Even tellymix is not that reliable this year

Because not every phone voter votes on polls, and not every poll voter phone votes.

Are ratings up this series?

Maybe the new viewers are looking for something different.

Well Celebrity Big Brothers polls have always been quite out of sync with the actually voting results.

The civilian big brother tends to give more of a reliable indication.

I think that is fair. See Paddy winning.
