If they used the old house this year, it would mean they would have to go and find a new house for Big Brother 15 [if it made it to that] as Endemol's Borehamwood House is being demolished in 2013.

Not necessarily. It was supposed to be pulled down last september, but they asked for permission to be extended. So they could easily just do that again. Don't forget that they've renewed the permission before this, last time was pre-bb9.

this bad news no live feed over night :bawling:

We don't know that. After bb10, i'm sure endemol know was no live feed results in. We should get it again, even if it's paid for like last time. But nothing is confirmed yet, so anything could happen.

Ahh that's good. Well if BB was going to come back this year they would have to use the same house. If they want a new house BB won't be back until next year or even a few years down the line.. :(

This. I wouldn't mind even paying. I got a free pass last year but if they charged like 15 quid to watch the whole of live feed for the duration of the series I would pay it!

i ment on tv fiver shuts 0000 fiveusa shuts 0100 and ch5 has a contract with supercasio

In the BB golden days C4 used to close e4 and devote it to live stream and BB spin offs. I'm sure they'd do the same or not close one of the channels over night.

Can still watch Big Brother online? If they do what happened last year.

the over night hours for fiver and fiveusa go th ch191,192 woohoo

I hope they dont us the same house. If it comes back it needs a complete reboot. It has to be a whole new Big Brother and it would just be depressing having the old house back.

The same house can still look different. They can change the stairs on the outside and make it completely different inside.......

God... Take me out with them "Freederm" adverts. I expect for BB to be straight on after :(

Um.. It doesn't take that long to find a big house...

Ikr? Same.
The Freederm Ads are better now though! They've remixed the tune.

:D

I don't think I care really, it'll bomb.

:rolleyes:

Channel 5 - which is now owned by Richard Desmond - originally expressed interest in buying the rights last summer but negotiations fell through.

"Desmond bought Channel 5 midway through last year hoping to turn it around," an insider told the paper.

"Things have not gone as well for him as he would have liked, and so he needs Big Brother to prop up his summer schedules.

"But he is turning to a formula that Channel 4 decided to axe because it just wasn't bringing in enough viewers.

"Nothing is signed yet but there have been fresh discussions with Endemol after earlier negotiations broke down."

The previous talks reportedly collapsed after Endemol asked for too much money, but the paper now reports they are set to sell it for a reduced fee.

"For their part, Channel 5 feel pleased with the price now," a source added. "But whether anyone will actually watch it to give them a return for their cash is anybody's guess."

More stories :love: Basically saying what we knew but still :love:

I wish people would stop being so negative and give C5 a chance for god's sake 'Whether any one will watch it..'

Big Brother 11 and CBB7 were fairly good in ratings, maybe not ALL of BB11 but still.
I'm sure if BB12 even gets like 2 Million per night that will be be good for Desmond as C5 as we all know struggles with ratings.

Big Brother usually gets 3 Million as Stu said the other day, that isn't bad but because it was such a big show, it should of been getting more.

Well it isn't a big show anymore so if it went to 5 and got it's usual 3 Million, that's quite good.

It all depends on Desmond's 'standards'.

I'm so happy! I hope it officially gets confirmed soon.

But unfortunetly I doubt we would get anything this summer. Maybe a Celeb BB next winter though.

Even ratings of 1m would be decent for C5, although they'd hope to get more obviously

I dont see how Channel 5 could resist having a show that pulls in around 3 million a night. Im not sure but im guessing even Channel 5's biggest shows ie: CSI only pull in a million? BB has a loyal hardcore fanbase and they will watch it whatever channel it goes on.

But to find a new big house and put up the cameras and sh!t in it and that.. if this happens there will not be a BB this year unless they used the same house.

Big Brother will be the best thing for Channel 5. What exactly is the highest rating show on Channel 5 at the moment? I did read in the paper when Aladdin was on last week it raked in over 2 million viewers. Was that the highest rating show? Who knows?

Desmond would be silly not to take the show on. Also I hope there is another housemate swap from another BB house this summer. I love when other BB houses are involved. The show is massive worldwide and an institution and should have more interaction with BB houses across the globe and the public too!

They'll be wanting HD so they'd have to do that anyway.

Before you lot get excited remember this is the guy that wants the x factor & corronation street aswell.. :puzzled:
