I haven't found anything official either, but the articles written over the past few days have been quite optimistic.
From Metro:
Currently the channel - who bought the format from Channel 4 after their final series in 2010 - has a deal in place with Endemol to keep the show, and its celebrity counterpart, on air until 2013.
However it has proven such a hit in its new small screen home that they are
currently negotiating a new deal - which is said to include two celebrity versions of the show a year as well as the regular show in the summer.
Big Brother boss Gavin Henderson told the Daily Star the contract was 'being re-negotiated as we speak'.
He added: 'It's an open secret that Channel Five have been very pleased with its success as have we.
'When we moved from Channel 4 to Channel Five it enabled us to make changes that we couldn't in the past.
'We've been a lot more confident this time in how
we drive the stories forward and make entertaining shows.'
LONG LIVE BIG BROTHER
