It should always be vote to evict imo. Voting to save means the more lesser known or less popular housemates are always at risk of leaving.

I suppose thats why they do it though, to get rid of the deadwood.

Vote to Save.

Look at it like this, we vote for the Winner in the final week, so we should be voting the same, positive, fashion every week.

If this series were vote to evict we'd have lost Perez and Katie Hopkins (no matter what you think of them, they've pulled in ratings) early on, and be left with Kavana.

VTE. It punishes nastiness, where VTS rewards it.

As for the "VTS keeps the entertaining characters" argument, that doesn't always happen. Plus, having the louder ones go gives us a chance to see more from the others who could very well be entertaining given the chance.

Regardless of pros and cons for us, it has to stay vote to save as that option is much harder for betting scam rings to manipulate.

yes there is that, and the fact its common sense. no idea why anybody believe vote to evict is a good idea?
CBB would not have lasted this long on channel 5 if it had been VTE. people forget the show actually needs to sustain viewers to survive !!
whats the point in all the controversy being sucked out of the house within a couple of weeks which means less headlines, dull shows, less viewers. no show.
thank god C5 had the common sense to change it when they took over from 4.

however i just wish they would use save for the civilian show aswell.

Vote to evict, the way it was intended.

You should be able to get rid of people who are unpopular instead of them being rewarded with winning.

A lot of people who have won over the last few years, wouldn't have lasted 5 Mins in a house with the original format.

Both as bad as each other.

Voters should be given the option to either save (+vote) or evict (-vote) with the HM receiving the lowest net total going.

I wonder how many people who loved Perez are voting for vote to evict. He would have gone straight away if that was the case.

What to save works best. It gets rid of the housemates that are not doing anything worth watching, who wouldnt leave if it was a vote to evict as no one has opinions of them.

Which is why I said what I said.

Big Brother UK started out with vote to evict.

The Housemates choose who they want to evict.

We should be able to choose who to evict.

Overall I would say vote to save. As much as I dislike him we would have lost perez too early on. Kudos to the poster from day 1 who predicted he would be evicted just before the final though! Can't remember who it was
