Of course they have something to do with it. They most certainly have something to do with live feed being cancelled too

Yes Desmond set a Strict Budget Deal
Endemol sacked the Live feed team


Its that simple.


Desmond could have paid the bit more for Live Feed
but his Strict Budget Deal meant Endemol had to sack 30 or more staff.

No
Desmond sets a Strict budget
he never will back down.


Endemol told him that live feed was not needed
they did that in order to sack staff
all for their own future.

Surely Channel 5 commission the show from Endemol. Channel 5 would commission something that would be suitable for their channel, they would never leave the final decisions to a production company.

But Endemol are the one's that make and produce the show, That's how TV normally works, the TV Channels buy contracts to air shows on there channel, and then the owners of the shows produce and make the shows for the Channel

What do you mean "that's how TV normally works"? You clearly don't really know how TV normally works.

Thats true but its the TV channel that allocate timing slots etc, therefore the decision to have live feed or not is down to the transmitting station.

Also they do sit down during negotations and decide what sort of things would be suitable for the particular target audience/time slot.

TV stations arent in the habit of sitting down and saying we need a one/two hour show for transmission every day , heres the money go fill your boots. They dont give carte blanche to production companies.

And like I just said...

... you don't really know how it works, do you.

Channel 5 would commission a show from a production company. They have input. They have to air it on their channel, so it would have to be suitable. They don't leave all the decisions to the production company.

Urg, yes they have input, But how the show is edited, made, etc is Endemol. As the user just said i am right. so it is you that don't understand TV
