That they don't want it mentioned is to be expected, really.

The Voice... bleh. I'll give it ONE more go this year (because Jessie J is gone and, as bad as the show has been, she was the worst of it) but if it's not much better in the first few weeks I'll be tuning out (or, rather, removing the series link... no one tunes into stuff any more do they?)

The format has so much potential, but they never end up with anyone decent past the second round?? Look at the two winners. Jesus effing christ. They make Sam Bailey look half decent.

Do you mean BB ended with only 1 million viewers on Channel 4?

Its a shame channel 4 killed it off and want it dead and buried. I still dont understand what their real motive was for killing it off it was getting 3 million solid viewers as of bb11 which is brilliant ratings for even channel 4.

It gets more viewers than Alan Carrs show which usually only just hits about 1 million viewers.

Summer BB alone doubles that rating on some nights.

Obviously BB has more interest.

Winter CBB episodes average 2 million more.

You really need to quote a post by an actual forum member if you are.

Salman its better than not contributing anything and constantly posting a simple 1 sentence about another member.

Why is Amy Childs on this?

Hardly a massive collection of celebs for a New Years special is it?

[Samm]

C4 probably does not want any promo, C4 are just jealous that it is doing better then there channels, and she was trying to speak about Big brother but they cut her off

[Raph]

Big Brother > The Voice all day, every day.

[Gypsy]

Oh my god

Alan Carr: 'It's Lauren from Big Brother'

[Pete.]

Alan: You don't do Big Brother anymore?
Emma: Yeah i do
Abbey: Yeah she does
Emma: I still do Big Brother
Alan: I thought you were going to talk about the Hub on This Morning!

[Niamh.]

I like the Voice

[smeagol]

alan carr is a irritation to human kind .used to like him but he is fake and not very funny
they need to axe chatty man its a really bad show

[Cherie]

I watched Graham Norton instead so I have not been concerned by Alan's non interest in BB.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Alan Carr is hilarious imo.

I was watching the big fat quiz of the year yesterday, and they had a tv segment. There was a clip montage of as Jimmy said "the most popular tv 2013 had to offer" and BB wasn't mentioned in it once, even though it was the most googled tv show. Also, have you noticed that BB has never been featured on goggle box?

[Jamesy]

Channel 4 want to pretend the show doesn't exist. The only day they will mention it in a big way will be when Channel 5 decides to axe it.
