[Patrick]

Would of prefered ITV tbh

[Noel]

No source?
+ the spelling mistakes are horrendous.
:/

[Braden]

i think watch is a reasonable channel to put it on,

[Matt]

Blatantly false. If the spelling and grammar errors didn't make it obvious enough, a Google search for the first line of the article brings up only this page.

[Patrick]

what is channel watch pmsl?

They use to do alot of movies lol

On Sky its Channel 109

[Braden]

what is channel watch pmsl?

it has shows like total wipeout u.s, outtake tv, doctor who,
so it mainly steals shows from the bbc because they have nothing else to premiere, so if this rumor is true it has a good chance of of being bought by the channel

[Stephanie]

ohh right

[Patrick]

I hope its true, because I just love the sound of it...
Big Brother 12.
BB12 UK
BB12!

lol

[ILoveTRW]

NO

id rather big brother was stopped altogether than put on a channel where it gets 100k viewers and the producers are only given a million pounds to play with.

i want good memories of big brother not shitty ones

Obvious bollocks.
We have to accept it's over.

It could more to another channel.
Infact it will, but I cant see it happening too soon unless BB11 does really well.

BB UK is by far the best, so if the other **** versions get to stay then so do we.

It`ll probley be on Five in a few years, FIVE Is such a **** channel so they`ll be begging for it no matter what they say, plus they wanted BB1 in the first place but thankfully lost out and C4 got it.

[Tom4784]

It probably won't realistically, The ratings this year will be the same or lower then last year and it'll just dissapear and be replaced next year by other programming and that'll be it. Thousands of shows have been axed before and very few have ever been brought back and I doubt very much BB is going to break that trend. The best you can hope for is a crappy ressurection a few years down the line.

Of all the New Channels Watch needs it
they started with Richard and Judy with their not so good Daughter
and when thay Failed it cost them a big amount of money.

Watch is on Virgin and Sky
and is trying to get a slot onto Freeview and Freesat.


If they went onto Freeview
as well as Sky and Virgin
the they could get 10millions viewers
which means they make bigger money
from adverts.


They have a Year to set it up.

[arista]

Obvious bollocks.
We have to accept it's over.


No as 'Watch'
could charge for 24/7 Online viewers
and they are trying to get onto Freeview
which soon will be the only other way of getting a signal,
apart from Sky and Virgin.


And Watch
is better than Nothing at all.

And Watch

True.
