If ratings are lower than expected then the only other way to keep BB on air is for it to make a profit from the "fans" actually voting.
BB has a hardcore fan base of around 1.5 million who will allways watch yet only a handful vote.
Lets just do the math on if an X amount of fans actually picked up the phone once/twice a week
Weekly profit
500,000 vote once a week: £175,000
500,000 vote twice a week: £350,000
1,000,000 vote once a week: £350,000
1,000,000 vote twice a week: £700,000
Full series potential: £7,000,000
Instead im sure the whole of last years series received less than 1 million votes?
Please correct my math if im wrong as im awfull at it lol.
7 million though how could Channel 5 even consider cancelling a show that makes that much profit.
In BBs heyday they used to get around 22 million a series I believe.
