Parroting? Never heard that one before, but I get the gist. Hope that this is true, I have previously said that they can swap the supercasino slot around, and also the teleshopping slot isn't even teleshopping, its just the 5* logo, all night.

emmetmcl · 23-04-2013, 06:56 PM

This hasn't even got a source folks, most people's TV guides still list teleshopping as being on 5*

swinearefine · 23-04-2013, 07:35 PM

Fiver doesn't exist, does it? It's just what 5* was known as before the rebranding.

No way, Ch5 has always said before it won't go down the LF route.

If you look at the style of the show LF just doesn't fit in anymore.

Channel 5 just recently fired their old executives and now there is a new head honcho, Ben Frow. He's apparently the one behind the firing of Brian, among other show changes, so it's very much plausible that he would also back the reinstatement of live feed as the people who were against no longer work there.

The thing is... Everyone goes on about this 'back to basics' type approach. But obviously the show itself dried up on channel 4 so they're going to need a really good angle. But the Ch5 attempt has been very experimental, both good and bad. So hopefully they all sit down and have a good talk about what works and what doesn't.

"dried up"? Ratings for the last C4 show rose to 3.0 million. C5's efforts have managed just 1.6 & 1.8 millions average.

Whatever C5 are doing it's scared off about 40% of the audience they inherited. The celeb version has taken a smaller dip but C5 have thrown loads of money at that.
