[Nicky91]

bad move i think, first step into axing BB for good :(

[Amy Jade]

Only day I would miss it is the day of evictions. Otherwise it can go.

[Nicky91]

oh well one less eviction interview, which we don't need, i don't care about the hm's anymore, i want more drama, more live feed :fist:

[Jay28jay2]

Bye

[MrBB]

Also if Little Brother returns, that would mean it would be pre main show somewhere in the afternoon, which could attract more viewers to the evening show

[Cal.]

Where are Nicola and Pricey gonna appear now? :(

[Nicky91]

Where are Nicola and Pricey gonna appear now? :(

nowhere, their moment of fame is over now ;)

[Strictly Jake]

Oh good I never watched it. There should just be an episode on Sunday morning that's similar to little brother that talks about the week gone by, has guests including past housemates from channel 4 series too that would be nice, a bit of news and exclusives, a bit of live feed, plus an eviction interview with the evicted Housemate finding out what they have done since leaving etc

[Calderyon]

This does not make sense.

[Morgan.]

At least they understand we don't want tacky **** and games anymore and want a broker programme. Rylan can do proper as well, it's just BOTS tells him not to be.

[BBUK-Fan]

I hope BBLB has the discussion of BOTS with a panel and the audience.
I hope they have the BOTS cam back.

[Morgan.]

:umm2: Didnt they literally use it for 5 seconds every Show and make a joke that it wasn't showing any action because they positioned it in a room that was closed or not being used.

I want the money to use it properly because I think it’s cool that the sideshow can have it’s own camera in the house

[Wizard.]

Yeah they should have done this like 5 years ago

[Cal.]

They deliberately positioned the BOTS camera so we couldn’t see anything as a joke it was annoying

[Lostie!]

You're (8 years) too late!

[Morgan.]

It does give me hope.

[Calderyon]

This is good news.

[Tony Montana]

Lol, I didn’t mind it when Alice, Jamie and Emma hosted during BB12 and BB13 actually.

[Calderyon]

BOTS was always biased towards certain housemates. Plus the audience and the panelists were always very annoying.

Not to mention the terrible and unfunny sketches and segments they had.

Good riddance.

[Eddie.]

Never really cared for Sister shows so l couldn’t be bothered to say the least...

[LaLaLand]

I'm here for it honestly. It was the SAME THING over and over, same guests, same infuriating, annoying audience, same discussions.

[Ant.]

BOTS was only cute on Launch/Finale night! It was okay for some evictions and whenever they had a special guest on but that's it

[*mazedsalv**]

Good,

That's a lot of money saved then.

[T*]

They’re really that slow that they haven’t clocked onto the fact they should of kept BBLB since day 1 omg
it’s insulting that they’ve only listened to the fact people liked how it used to be and the improvements that could be made now we’re at the end

[Jason.]

I'd rather they just had Rylan do short interviews with the housemates after evictions and the final like Jeff does for BBUS.

Having a sideshow every day of the week with the same old guests and gimmicks is redundant.

[Jodie.]

I mean...
988014477760237568

That sounds to me like Endemol don’t really want BB on C5 anymore

[Rob!]

I mean, if they’re going to cut costs, I’d rather they did it like this than to the main show.

[Jason.]

If they're cutting costs then can summer CBB piss off as well?

[*mazedsalv**]

I mean...
988014477760237568

Why is this surprising? We have known since last year that's what they were trying to do. Why else would they have pulled off CBB-lite in January with positive cheering crowds? (to make the show look positive and less-trashy to the other broadcasters)

[Rob!]

I doubt it’ll end up being that different anyway. It’ll be less crude obviously but I reckon they’ll just keep the same sort of format. It’ll be BBLB in name but they have a format that works for the audience that watched it every night

[Calderyon]

I'm here for it honestly. It was the SAME THING over and over, same guests, same infuriating, annoying audience, same discussions.

Not to mention Rylan essentially making the more and more about himself and his so called "singing talent".

[Matthew.]

bots is really bad anyway, i dont like rylan on it but i like him on everything else

[Rob!]

Plus, I can’t imagine anywhere in the schedule where it’ll rate especially well. Early evening during the week it’ll be against the soaps

[Greg!]

They should have never got rid of BBLB in the first place but this is a step in the right direction

[Cal.]

If they're cutting costs then can summer CBB piss off as well?

Can HA!

[Withano]

If Rylan is presenting it then idc, if hes not, then excellent move.

[Rob!]

I'm here for it honestly. It was the SAME THING over and over, same guests, same infuriating, annoying audience, same discussions.

It'll be the same guests, but they just won't be allowed to swear.

[Shaun]

I'm saying nothing because I know the second I say "no more Rylan :cheer:" he'll be confirmed as the presenter of a new spin-off or the main show itsbloodyself

[zakman440]

Right move IMO. Have thought for a while now that BOTS has been going down the drain - it basically became a show with no format and no direction. Would still like to see a panel show of some form (perhaps weekly), but it’s not a necessity when the show isn’t as popular anymore.

[Glenn.]

Is it even confirmed or is it just a bit of Daily Star drivel? When the source of the story is ‘a mole’ it doesn’t add any credibility.

[montblanc]

oop

[supertv247]

The person who says bblb is coming back in favour of bots says Rylan will definitely still be host

[hijaxers]

Not to mention Rylan essentially making the more and more about himself and his so called "singing talent".

Yes i had to watch on catch up in the morning so i could fast forward all the Rylan bits (which was mostly the whole show).

[Headie]

The person who says bblb is coming back in favour of bots says Rylan will definitely still be host

So Rylan's Supersized Celebrity Sunday is back featuring Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday too?

[Marsh.]

I'd rather they just had Rylan do short interviews with the housemates after evictions and the final like Jeff does for BBUS.

Having a sideshow every day of the week with the same old guests and gimmicks is redundant.

Yeah. Really they should just have it on Mondays and Fridays. Before and after evictions when there's things to discuss. We can all live without the Rylan Show that takes up the rest of the week.

[montblanc]

the casuals are shaking

[NotARylanFan]

Only thing I think I'll miss will be Luke Kemper's impressions... Otherwise good riddance.

[reece(:]

It's what she deserves

[Maru]

Ok.

Oh for **** sake

Oh for **** sake

:joker::joker: Don't think that's quite the reaction he's presumed!

[hijaxers]

What so its coming back ! Oh no please do not inflict us with this show please please please.

[Marsh.]

Just bloody axe Rylan.

[Marsh.]

Sick sick sick of him!!!!

[arista]

I'm saying nothing because I know the second I say "no more Rylan :cheer:" he'll be confirmed as the presenter of a new spin-off or the main show itsbloodyself

Yes its his fault.

[arista]

988092486638850048

welp :skull:


Yes he would take another pay cut
to keep his show

[arista]

Only thing I think I'll miss will be Luke Kemper's impressions... Otherwise good riddance.



Yes he is Good

[T*]

It'll be the same guests, but they just won't be allowed to swear.

Between BOTS, Rebekah Shelton and Robbie Turner's Uber driver, I'm starting to get pretty sick of dead things coming back to life

[Calderyon]

Well it was fun while it lasted. (BBBOTS being axed)

[Barry.]

Didn’t really watch it but it’s a loss.

[Maru]

I used to leave BOTS on on another screen when I was playing Minecraft or something... it was OK. I did feel like it had gotten worse over the years... Rylan I didn't mind either. I didn't understand the point to the audience aside from making noise. I've seen much more interesting commentary here on TiBB...

exactly this although i would be playing the sims or something :joker:

The Sims :love:

[BBDodge]

Just bloody axe Rylan.

Well the BOTS panel are all Rylan's mates
The BOTS audience are all Rylan's mates
The guest singers are all Rylan's mates

If he goes the whole lot goes.

[andybigbro]

I hope BBLB is the same format that it was in he last. They better NOT tarnish its name.

[Marsh.]

You say this as though it's a bad thing?

Not to mention they're only "mates" via this show. They'd all still be begging for their five minutes.

[Pete.]

I'm defo here for a BBLB revival but I hope they keep an after show for the live shows though like they did on the last few years on Ch4

[Rob!]

This is coming from the guy who fervently denied he was presenting BOTS before he started so

[Morgan.]

He said the tweet could mean 9 different things right now so hopes not lost

[BigBrotherGuy100]

Me.^ :hehe:

[BBUKfan88]

I'm glad little brother is back as bbbots was too cheesy and ott for me personally. I'm a bit disappointed Rylan will be presenting still though.

[Eddie.]

^^
Rylan has the potential to do good interviews, but C5/BB won’t let
him...

[Marsh.]

Whether it's called BOTS or Little Brother, Rylan will make it all about him.

But if the actual segments/items on the show go back to Little Brother style. More exclusive and behind the scenes stuff then at least it's a step in the right direction.

[T*]

Is the BOTS studio where BBLB used to be based or is it something different? I hope it not them just slapping another name on it

[Marsh.]

Is the BOTS studio where BBLB used to be based or is it something different? I hope it not them just slapping another name on itNo. BBLB was in the George Lucas stage which channel 5 have never used.

I think the Voice is in there now.

The eviction interviews were done in there too which is why the interviews started being done inside the stage outside.

[T*]

No. BBLB was in the George Lucas stage which channel 5 have never used.

I think the Voice is in there now.

The eviction interviews were done in there too which is why the interviews started being done inside the stage outside.

oh okay, I wonder if house control was based there too then bc they always had that in the background

[Jack_]

Big Mouth was there too wasn't it? I always remember Dermot walking through the BBLB set to talk to Davina at the interview set and then again around the corner to Russell

They had the gallery there too so they really utilised the space

[BBUKfan88]

Ffs so it's coming back? Does anyone really watch it?

[Marsh.]

Big Mouth was there too wasn't it? I always remember Dermot walking through the BBLB set to talk to Davina at the interview set and then again around the corner to Russell

They had the gallery there too so they really utilised the spaceYeah. It was huge.

Like back in the days before Big Mouth it used to look like a massive warehouse around the BB3 and 4 days. All open space with the gallery through the glass behind them.

[Marsh.]

oh okay, I wonder if house control was based there too then bc they always had that in the backgroundYeah I think everything was inside there. It's a massive studio.

Then in 2011 they built a load of portacabins and called it the "production village" as everything had to be done in those as they lost George Lucas stage to other shows.
