It's obvious there is no get out clause because they would have used it if their was.

It won't happen now, but the only way I could have seen out of it is if C4 still agreed to pay Endemol £60m for content that wasn't Big Brother, which actually could have benefited Endemol too.

Personally I think Endemol might have been wise to try and renegotiate the contract so rather than £60m for one series and one celeb series, C4 paid £60m over two years for just two regular summer series, cut down to around 10-11 weeks each - with Endemol committed to revamping the show.

That would bring in BB cheaper for C4, and could have worked out for Endemol too by giving the show a fighting chance of finding it's feet again, which I'm sure with MAJOR - and I mean MAJOR - change it could have done.
