Endemol Shine announce new Big Brother creative team

An odd move but confirms that Paul Osborne is back on the show:

Quote:

Initial Productions have today confirmed the appointment of Paul Osborne as the new Creative Director of Big Brother.

Paul, a Scottish native, joins following a decade living and working as an Executive Producer in LA, where he has worked on a huge number of network and cable hits including Secret Millionaire, Breaking Pointe and Celebrity Wife Swap. Most recently he spent 3 years as Executive Producer with Lime Pictures USA.

Having worked on multiple series of Big Brother prior to his time in the States, from taskmaster of the very first series in 2000 to Executive Producer of fan-favourite, Big Brother 7 where Nikki Grahame was introduced to the reality TV world, Paul has a close relationship with the show.

The latest series of Celebrity Big Brother launches on Channel 5 in August and will be themed ‘The Eye of the Storm’ with all housemates having been caught up in their own media controversies. This will be followed by a new series of civilian Big Brother.

Speaking on his return, he says: “Big Brother is part of my DNA, so returning to my roots was a no-brainer. This year all the celebrity housemates have a unique shared experience, they’ve all weathered their own media storms. Under Big Brother’s eye their stories will be once again firmly in the spotlight and in the national conversation. This summer’s Celebrity Big Brother, like the new eye, is set to be electric.”

Tamsin Dodgson will also return as Executive Editor after her first stint on Celebrity Big Brother: Year of the Woman in January. Tamsin has worked on some of the biggest entertainment formats in the country including, I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, The X Factor, The Only Way is Essex and Celebs Go Dating. Paul and Tamsin have worked closely together before on the US version of I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here for NBC.

Executive Producers are Anna Meadows (Blind Date, Strictly Come Dancing, Dancing on Ice, The Voice, Big Brother’s Little Brother) and Jess Thomas (Big Brother, Celebrity Big Brother, I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, Made in Chelsea, One Night With My Ex) with Lucy Crofts, Matt Green and Cally Haycox serving as Series Editors.

Great creative team!!!

Not Paul being the producer when our Nikki and Aisleyne were on the show

I’m quietly optimistic. In all honesty, I think whatever happens now will be too late to make any real difference in the show’s future so I’m just hoping that the next two series are amazing ones.

So from their past credits it sounds like it's going to be celebrity love house.

I mean Blind Date, Strictly Come Dancing, Dancing on Ice, The Voice, Big Brother’s Little Brother, Big Brother, Celebrity Big Brother, I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, Made in Chelsea,... They've been going on for years so hunders have been a producer or worked on these kind of shows... Am I right?

Also are paul Osborne and Dan Osborne related as they have the same last name

So I’ve just seen that BBCAN competition genius Trevor Boris is over in the UK for 4 months and has been retweeting some BBUK content recently...

OMG I BEG THEM :fc:

The tasks are a laughing stock, what a rejuvenation he'd provide to the show

He'd have to lead the team though, when he worked on BBUS nothing changed

100% agreed. Would love for the tasks to have some creativity in them again, or even for BBUK to finally have some big build tasks (and maybe finally make proper use of the “task house” that they wasted millions on). Trevor leading the team could very likely make this possible (well, maybe not the big builds given the shows slim budget, but one can dream :flutter:)

just what the show needs tbh
