And most fans say goodbye.

Kid you've just been reported for actually wishing death on somone....are you ok?

wishing death on a tv show, damn i'm a horrible person x

telling someone you’ve reported them after reporting them is also against the rules and RichardG wished death on a TV show not a human being so you’ve put your foot in it there

Is it? :unsure:

Honestly, if they have to start skimping on the quality, then they might as well axe it.

bye drone shots and £4k bath tub

I wonder if they'll still cram another Celebrity BB in this year .

Not paying so many bloody celebrities to do the show for no reason would also save money. 2017 had like 34 CBB housemates. That's A LOT of money to spend - especially when a lot of them probably contributed nothing. 10 celebs a series is fine and maybe one or two more a week into the series to add some excitement and freshness. But yeah, just signing for a January CBB and a summer civilian would save them a lot of money.

Or they could scrap the civilian version and just stick with 2 CBB 's every year :joker: .

Oh I just realised lol them cutting the price would only affect CBB23/BB20 ondwards wouldn’t it ah I misread and thought BB19 would have a price cut

:cheer2::cheer2:

I’m glad :hee:

I would be sad if they axed it, despite how much it’s changed I’d still rather have it than not.

Let’s add some up...

In 2015 they spent over £1.5 million on 3 CBB housemates in January, then added £50k to the bbuk prize for no reason, then put a ton more promo and effort into CBB UK vs USA. Then in 2016 paid £1m for 1 CBB housemate, built a whole new house and studio set (with the biggest wraparound LED screen in Europe) then in 2017 paid for many all star housemates at near £500k for some, and then spent thousands on the BBUK house and revamped CBB house. Now they’ve just spent god knows how much on a whole new creative direction, drone shots and £40k bath tubs.



Basically my point is that a huge budget cut probably won’t even be noticeable moving forward :laugh: less expensive unnecessary furniture, 14 housemates instead of 18-22 for CBB, and they won’t need to spend as much on stuff like the house and set as they’ve managed to do it all before budget cuts.

So...

• Only one CBB a year
• Cheaper furnishing
• Less celebs than normal for CBB
• Less housemates for civilian BB
• Shorter civi BB (if that's even possible:laugh:)
• Cancel BOTS / shorter episodes / 2 BOTS a week
• Kill task team again
• Cheapest z-listers from RTV for CBB
• Rigged/harder tasks to get housemates on basic budget
• Downsize the live shows even further (=more backdoors)
• Shorter highlight shows
• 6 HL shows per week (old school BB)
• Housemates growing their own food (chickens/veggies) - though it doesn't save much
• Saying goodbye to Emma and getting low-budget Rylan to host the show
• Smaller live shows' studio (not sure how it can help, when it's already the way it is)
• No music
• Less camera run guys
• Housemates building their house by themselves (i.e. the dutch Utopia)

What else can they do to save money? :laugh:

Them to have Emma prerecord all possible evictions during launch night and every housemate to leave via the diary room for their exclusive bots interview with Rylan on BOTS? :hehe:

The first 3 points would probably suffice tbh. The budget cuts won’t be that extreme :joker:

Housemates to reenact their best bits so editors don’t need paid to make them?

"Can't pay we'll take it away" to be filmed in the Big Brother house?
