Hello Members of TiBB,

I know I haven't posted on here in almost a month and this isn't really me returning either by the way guys, But I did hear some relatively big news regarding Big Brother and want to share it with you all as it appears not many people know about it, and why would they?
Most people have given up listening for news on Big Brother's future.

Anyway,

Channel 5 are going to be announcing their final decision as to whether or not they are going to be taking on Big Brother 12 very, very soon.

What I'm trying to say is, we will find out if Big Brother UK is ever coming back in January 2011.

2010 is so close to it's ending, so obviously January is just around the corner everyone.
This is going to be a big month because we as Big Brother fans are going to find out if our beloved show is ever returning even if it is to Channel 5, or if Endemol haven't found a buyer.

My Source?

There's a person I talk to on FaceBook well actually, I don't really talk to her.
She spoke to me a few times in the Summer about Big Brother but that was the last I heard of her until the other day when she spoke to me again on FaceBook chat regarding Big Brother UK.

She said that we'll find out in January if Channel 5 are taking it on, What makes her so special?

She's the same girl that told me just under a week before it was announced, that Endemol and Channel 5 have 'stalled' in talks regarding BB12 and then of course she was proved right when other articles surfaced about that in September.


And it's also been mentioned on Wikipedia aswell, I know what you're thinking!
'Wiki, Anyone can edit that!'

It's actually wrote on the top of the page, where you cannot edit anything unless you work for Wikipedia.

See Here.


What do you all think of that?
I'm rather nervous.

But anyway, How have you all been?
Like I said I haven't been on in a while, I just needed to sort myself out abit and had to attend some different counsellors and therapy, and stuff like that.

Although as I mentioned, I'm not sure if I'm coming back to this place but I just had a quick glance before posting this.. TiBB has been pretty dead!

I'm afraid if I leave it too long before coming back, You'll all be away!
Did you all have a good Christmas by the way?

Welcome back Patrick...even if you're not staying! It's been quiet without you

And on topic...will be interesting to see what the results are.

[lard]

Well i lost 2 of my annual favorite shows of the last 10 years, one was lost the was BB. My god i hope they take it on. But it won't be anything like how we know it if it does come back i would imagine.

[Jordan.]

Welcome back Patrick, you should stay!

Hopefully it is going to be good news but I just cant see it happening now tbh.

[Brekkie]

So there basically won't be an announcement then, as the deal fizzled out months ago. And thank god, BB needs a break - and C5 would just kill it off completely.

It will be back one day - whether in a couple of years or a couple of decades, but for now it needs to rest.

[Tom4784]

I reckon if they're waiting to announce the results then it must be leaning towards C5 acquiring it, otherwise they would just say it's not happening. Then again it's Wikipedia so I wouldn't take it seriously at all.

[Jack_]

I'm torn on the idea of it coming back to be honest. Part of me is dreading the thought of no Big Brother during the summer, but part of me doesn't want it to come back and be completely different to how I love and remember it. That'd ruin the whole thing for me. I only want it back if all the important elements remain the same, and to be honest that does include Davina...which I can't see happening. So I don't know.

[Locke.]

We need you to come back Patrick

And I cba reading the replies to this thread so dunno if its already been posted, but saw a article on DS earlier on about Davina saying she won't be presenting it if it does come back

Old news - there's been word of a January C5 programming announcement for months.

It appears Channel 5 is going to become even more cheap and sleazy than it's ever been so I'm not sure I'd like to see BB on 5 now. I mean, just look at their new logo:



...but then, what did you expect from Richard Desmond?

[Maia]

Yay! Great to see a post from you again Patrick

I hope Big Brother comes back, but if not I'd like to see The Golden Cage idea in action.

[lard]

Channel 5 has slowly improved over the years and become more at home with the other 4 channels. But not quite got that something. Aquiring neighbours was a good move and BB would be a likewise comparison. Although a bit like a secondhand hand me downs. But that don't worry me. But there is going to be big dissapointment on the horizon me thinks.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

maybe they asked davina and thats why the article popped up on DS

[MTVN]

Yeah, it's been known that Channel 5 are releasing their schedule in January for a while now but I didnt know that bit about Mediatel hinting it may still be possible and with Davina having to state that she wont come back it could hint that BB may be returning after all

[Beastie]

It needs to come back THIS summer on channel 5. It needs a new presenter. (Yes I know, no one could compare to Davina but it needs a change). Series 12 should last no longer than 8 weeks. (2 months). It ALWAYS should be a vote to save. A simple little change like that could work wonders. The format should stay the same. They need to give the housemates plenty of booze, parties and a hot tub! woo!

[Beastie]

Also I would love Celeb BB to come back. However if that happened looks like it won't be until January 2012. (Hoping Boy George gets on!)

Please dear God can it come back! I'm scared of the revelation...

[Sticks]

Channel 5 are the last people you want running it.

Anyone remember Back to Reality?

No Ch5
is under a new Control
Richard has bigger connections.

[Brekkie]

Yes - to porn and the Daily Star. And they did enough damage without actually running the show.


Have patience people - if it comes back now on C5 or Sky it would last one year, two at most. Wait a few years and it'll probably last a good 5-6 years at least.

[JamesWBB]

Yeah, I heard rumours about Channel 5 considering to run Big Brother. I really hope Channel 5 pick up on Big Brother, All i have thought about is Celebrity Big Brother for January. We can't lose Big Brother too. Let's just hope for good news.
