if i remeber summer house plans are only signed off during the january big brother's, infact plans for the summer show only start a few months before it starts so channel5 have had alot of time to think about things.

Yea but you are forgetting they have a lot more to organise. They needed to figure out timing slots, live feed decisions, presenter/s, celebs and non-celebs in one go. All of them were a given for channel 4 every summer where as channel 5 need to start from scratch and also get to know all endemol staff involved.

Late auditions, building a new house, and 30 porta cabins, thats the only extra pressure that been put onto channel5, you forgot most of the endemol minions will still be there from channel4 just a few new staff like task producers an digital producers still the same team just a change of those at the top really..
