All you have given me are assumptions like everyone else in here.

Noone here knows if regular bb will return next year or if we will just be getting longer stints of Winter and Summer BB which for Channel 5 would guarantee ratings.

Yes the officials as reported 2 weeks ago where higher than BB12 but **** me these last 2 weeks have been terrible and are loosing out to last years overnights at the same point.

Again look up the word "fact".

You're assuming and second guessing Channel 5. not actually providing me with factual evidence. That quote from the Channel 5 statement was to vague for you to even judge what they are planning to do with our beloved summer BB.

My original post about this was coz i feared for the regular summer series returning looking at the ratings dipping below 1 million even on weeknights now.

Please see DS aswell coz people there seem to actually understand what im talking about there.

What i'm saying is, C5 signed a contract that gave them the rights to air Big Brother for 2 more years. That can be clearly seen in link the jarroddaniel1 posted. Clearly, they wouldn't have signed the contract if they weren't satisfied with BB12's ratings and they intended to air two more years of Big Brother (notice how they say Big Brother, and not Celebrity Big Brother). Given this information, it's pretty clear that Big Brother is in no danger of being axed, which is the main point I was trying to make. You said Big Brother was in danger of being axed, and I said it wasn't. I have backed it up with factual evidence why I think that, what more do you want? The press release is as close to confirmation that BB will be on for 2 more years as you can get. C5 would not have signed the contract if they did not intend to air 2 more years of Big Brother. Period. End of. They claimed the rights to airing it so no other channel could, because they WANT to air it.

And again, i'm re-iterating the fact that BB13's ratings average is STILL higher than BB12's.
