Channel 5 to revive Survivor UK?
 

A new twitter account has been created:

I really hope so, it might get me into the US version :love:

I really hope so but i'm worried it won't be the same format as US?

Hmm here for it

a) this probably isn't real
b) if it was, I'd be in two minds about it... I'd love another UK Survivor, but on any channel but Channel 5 (I'm sure I've listed before all the reasons why Survivor wouldn't work over here in this day and age, but yeah, that too)

oh
my
god

if this got out, they will be more rumours about BB being axed

Big Brother axed for Survivor etc

but NOT C5, they shouldn't be allowed another format ever

C4 is the natural home for a revival of Survivor UK

sorry not buying it until c5 confirms.

Personally I reckon it'd be suited to BBC One if they ever decide to axe The Apprentice, given that Channel 4 already have approximately twenty variations on the whole 'reality show in which people are stuck on a desert island' thing going

this seems a bit trollish tbh

I guess the BBC did have Castaway but idk, I'd be concerned about the censorship

Yeah, you'd think that they'd actually announce the show before making "coming soon" ads, hashtags etc... even if they are using the Australian Survivor logo to do so

Hopefully it will revitalise the franchise as the newer US seasons have not been as strong imo.

But then for me nothing will top Pearl Islands, China, and Panama.

I want The Amazing Race UK.

I don't really see what you'd miss if it was censored (as it is in the US)... gross, sandy, saggy naked bodies? The odd bleeped-out/muted swear word?

Yas.

I oppose censorship full stop out of principle (the US' regulations drive me crazy) and I can't imagine the BBC being as lax with the f word (let alone the c) as much as C4/5 :laugh:

There'd probably be a bigger audience on the BBC mind you

It's a show i really really really want to do.

This seems fake af but I would be soooo here for it

I don't get why they don't turn Bear Grylls: The Island into Survivor.

Channel 5? Legends, never dissed!

C5 to see the success if Survivor and implement a game format like BBUS into BBUK :fc:

no thanks

:cheer2:

tbh though if anything I could see C5 filming this as-live and having public influence

Also why do I think they'd get Rylan to host?

Rumour has it sue was unable to replace Kayleigh in the house has Survivor filming had already begun.

why are people so desperate for a bbus format you literally have bbcan and bbus to choose from. BBUK is fine this series is fab. Imagine chanelle's funny bits being cut out to make room in the edit for lotan and tom talking about their alliance.

here for it! then i would apply

Loool BB is axed if this is true. They'll want an entertainment reality show but don't want to pay for BB. Bet you anything they'll have a celeb version as well lmao

Gemma Collins to be the mastermind?

The Jennifer Ellison/Sinitta/Coleen Nolan alliance we've all been waiting for

That profile is so clearly fake

Hmm Megan, Genna and steph's secret alliance will end them.

Not anymore we don't, and as I've said before this argument never makes sense because if someone likes a particular format more than another, why would they not want it implemented in other countries? I enjoy BBUK, I'd enjoy it more if they adopted the US format

Oh yes Steph and Baby Davis being crowned the winner on Day 39 as John Partridge scowls in the audience <3

Why make them all the same format though? I enjoy both formats for different reasons and I would be incredibly disappointed if the uk format was scrapped.

The US format would kill the UK version for good. Your typical British BB viewer is not going to be interested in the gameplay that the US version has to offer. They frown upon it enough during our own series.

Can't wait for Rylan's first tribal council as host

"The tribe has spoken, here's your Rylan's Farewell Fangs!"
