To summarise:
-16-34s are down a lot
-Their reality stuff post-BB has flopped (e.g. The Bachelor UK rated even less than BB19 ffs)
-The RealityOn5 accounts haven't been updated in months
-Their so-called "Original Content" isn't really original (countless re-runs of Friends, Train documentaries, Jane McDonald shows, Secret World of... shows, Britain's Favourite... shows etc.)
-The channel is only watched by people aged 40+ (can't see any youngsters watching any of the shows mentioned above)
With all that being said, If I was the director of programmes of C5, I would have kept BB on and not wasted money on a load of reality junk that nobody is going to watch like Make or Break, The Bachelor UK and Undercover Girlfriends.

None of this makes BB relevant.
None of this makes the cost of BB a good business decision.
Considering your extensive knowledge of the state of their line up, they haven't lost you as a viewer.
They've never called re-runs of Friends "original content". The original content is stuff they've never done before, which is their own drama series such as the one that starred Catherine Tyldsley.
