What's that got to do with anything?

He's in negotiations with endemol for the rights to Big Brother.
What's that gotta do with a single comment he made about Corrie and X Factor?
No matter how deluded that comment was.

Bout 2 I think.

Didn't they struggle to find a suitable, clearable location for bb3, hence settling on building on a studio water tank.

They put cameras in the Borehamwood house aswell every year in new rooms..?

It'd be impossible for them to demolish the interior and rebuild it with thousands of pounds worth of cameras sitting about.

I don't think it'd take that long, they usually begin working on the house in April if I remember correctly so they would need to sort something out soon if they decide to do it.

Desmond would be silly not to take the show on. Also I hope there is another housemate swap from another BB house this summer. I love when other BB houses are involved. The show is massive worldwide and an institution and should have more interaction with BB houses across the globe and the public too!

Ew no I don't want other countries getting involved in our show.

Maybe BB USA or BB AUS [if that came back] as then they can speak English but not like Germany.

Also there's the risk of them sending one of our favourites or big characters to America.

Although I mean for example last year, if they were to send Steve Gill to America and give us Britney from BB12 USA then It'd be cool.

Anyways, I agree Desmond is going to brick it when he turns this down and in a few months his channel flops and he's wasted tons of money.

I haven't watched Channel 5 since 2005.

Neighbours gets about 3m I think

But unfortunetly I doubt we would get anything this summer. Maybe a Celeb BB next winter though.

This.
But that may be a little odd, having the 'comeback' as CBB8.

Although it may be the best thing for it, because it seems more people enjoy CBB

I'm a Summer Fan though so I'd rather them, if we don't have one in Summer this year, then not have one in January either.

Ideally I want them to start with BB12 then CBB8.

Really? It's on twice a day. 1:45 and 5:30pm. I am guessing the 3m ratings would be for both shows together?? Didn't think it did that well.

'Parrently Matthew Wright just mentioned the story on FIVE's "The Wright Stuff".
