New Series on C5 v Repeats on E4
 
Hypothetically, if C5 do relaunch the series and C4 opted to fight fire with fire by re-airing the series from the beginning in exactly the same slot on E4 for example, what would you watch?

(Obviously your Sky+/PVR is broke and your net connection down too, so recording or on-demand is not an option!)

Smithy 30-01-2011 04:51 PM

No.

New series >

Niall 30-01-2011 04:52 PM

New series.

Why can't C4 get off their backsides and release a boxset of BB already. :bored:

Brekkie 30-01-2011 04:53 PM

Because it would be a massive box. That said, I got all 11 series (so over 200 episodes) of Frasier for £59 the other day! Bargain!

Braden 30-01-2011 04:55 PM

I'd probably be sick of wasting my life watching repeats of a show that i've already watched. I'm over the old, so let's see what the new has to bring.

New series >>>>> Repeats.

But if there is not going to be a new series this year, they should repeat series 1-11. Preferably the early series first.

Yeah, but if you took 11 series of BB, with an average of 80 days and 4 episodes to a disk, thats still 220 disks

Thats not including celeb series etc

This.

They're literally rubbish at thinking these things out, they're bankrupt and I don't think they've understood just how much money they'd make from releasing Big Brother on DVD.

I would buy every single series.

Other people would buy BB5 and BB7 alot too.
They're thick as ******.
Yet they're very quick on suspending people like me on YouTube for uploading Big Brother clips, at least I'm doing something for fans.

Wankers.

That's a tough question, but I'll go with a new series.

C4 should just ****ing release box-sets of Big Brother, uncensored too hot for TV. :D

I know the box would be massive but they could like have each season available for like £20 each? It would still be a huge box but it wouldn't be so bad. :)

C4 can't repeat previous series. But new series.

Princess 30-01-2011 06:30 PM

Repeats definitely. I don't even have C5 on normal channels,just 'extra channels'

Jordan. 31-01-2011 12:15 AM

New series. I can watch repeats on the internet.

BigBrotherfan4ever 31-01-2011 09:52 PM

Can i be greedy & say both:blush:

flamingGalah! 31-01-2011 10:44 PM

New series of course, I don't understand why people would want to watch old series that you have already seen??

InOne 31-01-2011 10:46 PM

Or maybe they're not rubbish at thinking things out.
The cost of manufacturing these boxsets, getting the rights for all sorts of things like music used etc. Cramming like 90 highlights shows onto dozens of discs when only the very major fans would buy them. It's not worth the effort or the money and materials.
The DVDs they do release like the BB7 game and things are either free or very cheap in the book shops. They just won't sell enough.

Although I do agree about Youtube. They could upload all the episodes from every series there for the fans to watch. Even if you have to pay a small fee.

New series, it loses some of it's appeal when it isnt happening right now and you're not really able to discuss events as they unfold.
