The planning permission for the house and the production contract are completely separate. Endemol renewed the lease on the house for three years in 2010 long before Channel 5 had signed the deal to acquire the rights to the show.

Well what's the point signing a contract to keep a house there if you have no plans to use it for like 3 years.

Matt are you not worried that the flag-ship show hasen't had the contract re newd allready i would be worried, and even if desmond dose sell up ita going to be hard times for bb as a whole?

Johnny, plz stop the contract isn't till April

I'm not worried there hasn't been a contract renewal yet, both the original contract and its first renewal were announced to the public in April so there's plenty of time.

But yes, I am a bit concerned about what a new owner would want to do with it.

Ppl overreacting the contract is always renewed in april

C5 have actually had some of the best bb and cbb series, although nothing will ever top c4's bb5 (nadia et al) or the greatest hm bb3 jade (love or hate she did actually become a cultual icon in media for so called chav class). But Aaron in c5's bb12 was best winner.

My name gripes with c5 are showmance obsession, lack of live feed, manipulation, bit on the side propaganda and bias, lack of punishment, unwanted return of vte and lack of diversity (too many models, samey white hms and under 30s), would love to see witty smart girls (pretty or not) and the sort of girls who don't pose in daily star in bikinis, more than 2 black/ asian hms (see bb10) and at least 3 over 35s in cbb this year the most entertaining were the oldies lionel, jim, linda and even liz had her moments... what did ollie and sam do? Also hate racial stereotyping eg arrgumentative white girl depicted as stong and feisty, argumentative (dark skinned) black girl depicted as rude, aggressive, scary and nasty

Who knows, maybe the new owner of C5 will take Big Brother back to how it used to be like on Channel 5.

C5 would be idiots not to renew the contract. Considering the latest CBB and BB14 were huge hits I would be highly surprised if they didn't renew!

cuda - i agree with you - from nikki grahm to glen - im cooking a egg for the very first time uhhhh hummmmmmmmmm and many more - ch4 was top dog.


i hope they do.

Please save big brother!

C5 better keep BB otherwise they should expect something like this outside the C5 HQ.

In other words, Millions of angry BB fans would protest outside the C5 HQ!!!

Phil Edgar Jones could take control over BB again if BSkyB win the rights to Channel 5.

:worship: :worship: :worship: :worship:

His Holyness :shocked:

Maybe there will not be a New Owner
due to him wanting a High Price.

I hope BB stays on Ch5 or goes back to Ch4 :)

I think people have it in their minds that Davina would return if it went back to BB, Deffo not gonna happen. I think she would only do it for its twentieth anniversary possibly only one night or somthing!

I posted that Yesterday on the Ch5 possible take over thread TV Chat
with a proper link
http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/foru...00#post6727800


Fact

They have not put money on the table
just talking about it
does not mean anything yet.

Fact
Ch4 has Dumped it for good
they Have Moved ON


Why do people not get that?

If you think that's the only proper link that's up to you but I like reading BB news from bbspy website and news websites.

All because I said I hope BB stays on Ch5 or goes back to Ch4 doesn't mean I'm saying it will go back to Ch4.

I was just saying how I would like BB to go back to Ch4 nothing wrong with that.

Unless you're a psychic you can't say that C4 will never take it back.
