Surely, this is a disasterous rating? Absolutely terrible.

Is it likely that Channel 4 now will not renew the contract and end with BB11, or even try and force Endemol to end it after BB10 by paying compensation.
Judging by last nights selection of housemates and so called twist I think all sensible people should be wishing that CH 4 do the right thing and kill off the series now not waiting for BB11.

BBBM was a disgrace and a complete load of vulgarity rubbish suitable only for those of a mentality of a moron.......Could not stand watching it and switched off well before the end of BBBM........Almost did the same thing with regard to the so called launch night.......

I will give tonights highlights a look at but have a feeling I will switch that off too........

It's not the housemates that are not real housemates it's the producers that are not really sane......

I'm getting pi$$ed off with your insults, have a look round other fan sites and see how many people are asking 'why no live feed' :mad::mad:

Who said that was my issue? My issue was your, quiet frank, utterly ballsed up, retarded understanding of the situation.

Major television networks do not hold back an entire advertising campaign as a conspiracy to prevent a fraction of their audience, most of whom already know, from finding out that the live feed is not back 24/7, you moron.

Fom 05-06-2009 02:54 PM

It will never be cancelled I dunno about everyone else but BB was the main center of conversation in college today. The eyebrow twist really got people talking, nice fun task for the audience...

Same here. I was surprised at the amount of texts I got saying 'you watchin BB?' last night. Again, that does not happen with Come Dine With Me.

Stu Stu Stu you silly little person you havn't got a clue how these things work. Leave it for a few weeks and we will see whos the moron:xyxwave:

Spike 05-06-2009 03:02 PM

Anything over 5million was a success for last night imo
Its a good rating with a good rating in the demographic with a good balance of housemates which may turn BB's fortunes around

bettiepage 05-06-2009 03:04 PM

I was expecting a lot less than that.

So your saying Channel 4, with intention, decided to advertise Big Brother like shit so the sixth of the audience who did watch live feed on a regular basis and who already knew of it's cancellation would be kept in the dark? And this makes ANY sort of business sense HOW?

Right. Just so I know we are on the same page. Nice argument, by the way. The men in white coats should be coming soon enough.

Jayson 05-06-2009 03:28 PM

why on earth would they cancel theyre best show?, theres so much shit on C4 these days, why not just cancel that and let BB take its place?

President 06-06-2009 10:37 AM

2.7 million last night. That is really bad!

Damaris 06-06-2009 10:38 AM

2.7!!! Oh god.

JOSHUAH! 06-06-2009 10:42 AM

I'm sick of everybody saying its going to be cancelled.
They won't cancel it half way through a series, and BB11 is CONFIRMED.

Also, the ratings aren't that bad - the launch show BEAT every other terrestrial channel, which isn't the norm for Channel 4 - they usually come third or fourth in the ratings list.

Totally with you there.
Just stop fretting. Just watch it enjoy it and have a positive mental attitude :)

Spike 06-06-2009 10:45 AM

Simple answer. NO
I can't be bothered to state the reason because its obvious why

Yes Ch4 needs to let Endemol move Channel.

Tom4784 06-06-2009 10:54 AM

As long as it stays around 2 Million - 3 million viewers for highlights it won't be cancelled. It can't be cancelled until after next year's has finished anyway.

Miss-red 06-06-2009 11:04 AM

it'll not be cancelled the ratings would have to drop dramatically for that to be even considered plus we've 14 weeks ahead of us the ratings could fly up over that time xx

aliacid 06-06-2009 02:17 PM

I remember reading before BB10 started that we are guaranteed BB11, can somebody confirm this for me please ?
