That people over the age of 39 exist? What's your issue with seeing people over 40 on TV?

The vast majority of auditionees will be under 40. I wouldn't want potentially good housemates excluded just to create an age spread.
Diversity in race and sexuality shouldn't be problem among those auditioning. |

I think 16 is too young, they're pretty much kids still then, I'd say 18 at the very least

There are a lot of laws around people under 18 on TV including not being allowed on TV past 10 and they would have to leave to continue education

I think it'll most likely be 18 but it would be better if it was 20+ honestly, teenagers are boring, I get enough teen drama from my 12 year old. |

Plenty of people out there who have great personalities and are easy on the eye but reality TV tend to not find both so please just put personality first! |

would be pretty funny if ITV were to come out with a statement and say none of this is true

BB OBSESSED
|
Obviously great news but no one has raised the issue of how BB would be up against I'm a Celeb as the article suggests an autumn slot?? Especially as they'd most likely return to the jungle by that point, even more of a reason that people would opt I'm a Celeb vs. BB. Even if they push back I'm a Celeb - this and Love Island with BB all back to back surely would create some kind of reality TV fatigue for the casual viewer?? (not me tho lol hate the wait)

I’d be surprised if ITV were to pit BB and IAC up against each other. It would be very counterproductive.
Ideally, I’d like to see a mid-April slot that will take us up to Love Island for the summer run. But if BB were to air towards the end of the year then maybe a September start date would do? Which would then finish in good time for IAC. Last edited by Babayaro.; 19-04-2022 at 10:43 PM. |

it's unreasonable to think that a revamped BB will be the same as it was 20+ years ago. It also needs fresh faces never previously associated with it to present. It needs to be new and interesting not same old same old. I don't think live feed will ever return. The cost of production vs viewrship just doesnt make it viable.
If people can remember far enough in the past. I'm a celeb used to have live feed and ITV canned it, so i think that says it all I think what we all want is realism. Not fake drama from wanabees. If they get that right, then the show will be a success |

Ultimately though I think ITV's main reason for the interest now is to protect Love Island - the prospect of C4 being privatised IMO raises the likelihood of them looking at Big Brother again, and I don't think it is any coincidence the news has broke now that ITV are looking to lock it in for themselves just weeks after privatisation of C4 was announced. Strategically this is as much about ITV protecting their own cash cow as it is about reviving BB itself.

I do think it's a strategic move but I actually think ITV2 will probably do a better job, especially with Kevin Lygo overseeing their content. Also think it has a chance of rating better there too, and it'll be under less pressure and scrutiny than it would be on C4 which I think will benefit it creatively.
What they need to absolutely do though is re-establish the core format and not panic the minute someone says it's boring. Big Brother should be about the long game - not short term ratings peaks with desperate twists. It's at it's best when it's a slow burner - and the pay off in the later weeks is usually far higher when that is the case than if producers try to manipulate things week in week out in their belief to keep the show entertaining they need to protect and overly showcase the most "entertaining" housemates.

Yes absolutely agree with your second paragraph, it already happens in most reality shows (the manipulation etc) so give us something different now
