I found this quite interesting. It's an article regarding whether controversy boosts the ratings. The figures shown in the graph are the series averages of CBB throughout the 15 seasons.

There is also a poll asking whether people are enjoying it this year, and the result so far is:

Yes- 70%
No- 30%

There are also other poll questions which are a little out there but interesting!

Must note they mucked up the graph by saying "Carol says N word" with an arrow pointing to CBB11, when in reality it was CBB12.

Thanks for this. It makes interesting reading and I enjoyed it having watched all of the series

the graph of ratings is also interesting when you look at the drop from jade goody/shilpa shetty series to cbb 6 it shows the racism row really crushed the series

Thanks for this, could have been spared of that ghastly pic of Hopkins though

I wasn't offended by a single one of these so called scandals when they happened.
