But a lot of the big ones - Strictly Come Dancing, The Apprentice and Doctor Who to name three - have kept their sites. BB is still one of C4's biggest shows so it deserves more than their plain, boring generic template.
And I agree, I was simply saying it should get a simplistic design and it COULD be an idea to give it that one.

ANYWAY..

Do you think it'll get a new home this year?
Is that not a wast of money?

They could have the sub-domain like they have (channel4.com/bb) but just make the site amazing on their.

Plus what TLDomain would they have? - thisisthegenuinebigbrothersite.com? :wink: - Most BB related domains has gone.

:spin2:
They can probably take legal action against a site if it uses the words big brother uk and it's owners refuse to hand it over. David Walliams threatened to sue davidwalliams.com for using his.
Not legally possible. Unless they claim to be the Official site.
Davidwalliams.com was almost taken down for using his name, so yes it is. It could be argued its' breaching a trademark.

Nobody owns a domain name apart from ICCAN. When you buy a domain for a year - 10 you are only 'renting' it and it always belonws to ICCAN.

I know full well how it works thanks (Though technically, ICCAN don't rent out domains, they assign them. They are the authority, not wholesaler) . I've been interested in web development and the tech industry for yonks.

I was referring to his NAME (David Walliams) not domain :rolleyes:.
