I will add - the fact they're still actively running the Voting promo and allowing votes to filter in, despite Ed almost definitely being evicted, really is a reflection on how they view their own show. They absolutely deserve for this - and every other BS thing they've done this season - to bite them in the ass eventually.To be honest, I don’t think they’ll care. Technically the voting doesn’t matter because it’s free, so they’ll likely just invalidate any votes for whoever got evicted.
Is it immoral? Probably. But thereotetically they don’t need to be concerned - plus, their disclaimer covers them either way. The save votes are used as a guide to give them an idea for how Australia is liking the HMs, but ultimately the end result can be fixed at their discretion if they want it to be.
Whichever way you look at it, for the most part this revival truly has been quite the flop, lacking a lot of sincerity and credence since day one. It's no wonder the viewers are losing faith in them.
