C4 have also confirmed they won't be reconsidering their decision - rather foolish if you ask me. Yes, they shouldn't make any rash decision until BB11 airs, and probably shouldn't air a main series next year, but they should at least be open to the possibility and probably invite Endemol to pitch to them their ideas for a 2011 Celeb series along with other ideas for replacements.

I agree I think they are extremely foolish to close the door completely on BB.......Any company that axes a show while it is still making good ratings and advertising revenue has to have mad management at it's heart.......
What can they put on for 13 weeks and draw in the viewers and be cheaper to produce.........Certainly not quality drama covering 13 weeks every day of the week would cost a good deal more than BB does......Most likely thay will dish up some tacky American series with the drama appeal of a snail on a day trip.....
