1. If the ratings are good then the producers will be putting in more effort to keep those ratings from falling, lets say the ratings were like 1 Million then the producers wouldn't bother doing any big twists and stuff because no one is watching this is what I feel happened with BB10.

2. If the ratings are very good for BB11 well then more channels will show an intrest in the show to purchase it after BB11 Ends this is proven by what happen with CBB7 in January and that only got 3 Million and yet channels said they would buy it.


So basically the ratings do matter for this series, people may think because BB is axed that they don't matter but thats not how other brodcasters will look at it when they consider buying Big Brother.

I'm sorry but you have a totally inflated opinion of BB. The truth is nobody gives a **** about BB anymore, regardless of it being the last series. It's gotten **** all press attention even though the launch is days away, it's a totally irrelevant show. It will very much struggle to get it's usual 6 million.

Seriously, enjoy this series but don't put your hopes up for anything for a few years at least. You'll only set yourself up for disapointment because it WON'T get picked up by another channel. It makes no sense, the ratings are down the public are generally apathetic and it takes up a lot of valuable airtime to do. Nobody with a sane business mind will pick it up.

Viewing figures aren't going to change what the producers do. And to say the producers didn't introduce any twist in BB10 because there was fewer viewers is laughable.

2. BB wont get picked up by another channel. Every serious candidate (ITV, Five, Sky) have ruled themselves out.

So basically ratings don't really matter. The only thing they will determine is how C4 will schedule the show.

People need to stop comparing the ratings to ears ago. Just coz the ratings are down doesnt mean they are s h i t!

A show that attracts millions of viewers is gonna appeal to any channel especially someone like channel5 or a sky channell who never even gets close to say the 6 million cbb7 got!

FACT!

Yes they have
The controller of FIVE said in an interview that he wouldn't go for Big Brother because its not the route that FIVE are going down at the moment. And even if FIVE wanted the show they wouldn't be able to afford it.
