Theirs nothing different or new they could do which would make alot of difference. However Channel 5 have a 5 year contract with the show, and I sense that they may stick with it!

Isnt it a 2 year contract?

It is believed Channel 5 signed a five-year deal with Endemol for the rights to Big Brother earlier this year.

To be honest they have ruined this show so that will make people tune out of all of channel 5 shows in protest, CSI I can watch on Sky Living

I'm really enjoying this series, much against my expectations, and despite my feelings toward much of the cast. Maybe next year they will consider putting lf in.

All that is left really is a bit of eye candy, even from the start there was nobody I was going to relate too, I think that is the same for a great many 'potential' viewers. That bunch are only going to apeal to a tiny minority. CBB was worth watching, its the only reason I've gave this year a chance but I'm bored with these kids already.

I echo your sentiments Raven. You have summed up very nicely how many of us BB fans feel. If there is to be a BB series next year I take it over 30's need not apply to audition.

It is a 2 year contract but remember C5 runs on revenue, if BB pulls in 1 million and Kangaroos Wrestling In Mud 2 million then they bump BB to 4am on Wednesday. WHO IS YOUR FAVOURITE KANGAROO?

The Daily Mail, probably the worst paper around other than the Sun. Also the main competitor with The Daily Express, The Mail is hardly going to give any positve view on BB anyway.

Having said that, it has by doing this alloted a portion of its paper to BB thereby publicising it so that may spur some people to check BB out again.

Shame its actually a great series. Far superior than the horrid BB11.
