The Bachelor to return to Channel 5

Quote:

ITV2's Love Island could be about to meet its match as Channel 5 is revamping The Bachelor.

This year's villa-set show remained as popular as ever, with the final episode pulling in the biggest ITV2 viewing figures of all time as Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham claimed the top prize, but it looks like Channel 5 are hoping to challenge that.

Channel 5 previously aired two series of The Bachelor UK in 2011 and 2012 and now Deadline reports that the series will be making a comeback as a new 10-part series will start filming in South Africa this autumn.

The original Bachelor series in the UK aired between 2003 and 2005 on BBC Three, before being snatched by Channel 5 and turned into a celebrity vehicle starring Made in Chelsea's Spencer Matthews and rugby player Gavin Henson.

In the US, the format – which sees a single eligible bachelor and a pool of romantic interests date and get to know each other as the bachelor searches for The One – has proven much more popular, running for 22 seasons and launching several spin-offs, including The Bachelorette.

The revamp wouldn't be the first time broadcasters have tried to emulate the success of Love Island in recent years, as recent reality efforts include ITV2's Survival of the Fittest and MTV's True Love or True Lies? for starters.

Elsewhere in the reality star universe, Jack Fincham has revealed what happened when he finally met his girlfriend's famous dad, Danny Dyer.

"It went well! We went and had an Indian," he said. "We just chilled out at (Dani's) for (her) birthday, went and picked up the takeaway with Danny Senior."

We wonder if they shared a naan bread together?

Only 330k?? Even the lowest-rating episode of BB19 got a lot more than that!! To say that its embarrassing is an understatement!!

:laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

KARMA for getting rid of Big Brother!! Hopefully that'll wipe off the smug look on Ben Frow's face!!

I knew it would flop before it even started anyway and I was right.
