Richard Desmond triples Channel 5's pre-tax profits

[Sawyer]

Although not technically BB news, I'd just like to point this story out.

Before Desmond, Channel 5 lost something like £30m last year, this year they've profitted £30m. (I think I read that right)... Just see for yourself with all the facts and figures here: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/broadcasting/news/a324570/channel-5-owner-triples-pre-tax-profits.html


Worth pointing out that Desmond isn't stupid, and if he's capable of something as astounding as that, perhaps we should cut him some slack and see how BB on 5 turns out?

People should just cut C5 and the new BB some slack, cos no body has even seen the new BB yet, and we dont know much about it, im sure C5 will do a super job of it!
as they want the show unlike C4

doesn't change a thing about the quality of 5's programming

Early days yet. C5 will always be seen as low rent tat.
