Oh for goodness sake! How has this thread escalated to this?!?!

The programme has to abide by strict legal guidelines. Entertainment attorneys are working round the clock for channel 5 ensuring licensing rules never get breached. When a dodgy or incorrect statement is presented in a broad sheet, its not the journalist who gets raked over the coals, its the publisher and that newspaper is thrown into disrepute. Its the same with television; whilst CBB would get a bad reputation, Channel 5 would be heavily fined and their licensing would come into question.

I'm sure there were some discrepancies but nothing illegal happened here.

Personally I've enjoyed this series and I stopped watching CBB a while back because it was tedious. I like what they are doing and believe CBB and BB needed to evolve if it was going to remain popular viewing. Clearly its worked.
