So then why not promote the damn show more?! Of course there's no way another two million people are going to tune in but there's definitely room to make some respectable improvements instead of just leaving the show to wither away.

BB14 and BB13 to an extent show that if you promote the show well, you will get the results. I honestly don't understand why you keep making excuses for the lack of promotion? I mean Christ I thought I didn't care much about BBUK anymore but do you not care if it's axed at all? That's a genuine question, don't blame you if you don't...but I'm just curious as to why you care so little about the promotion of the show

Well actually they do, because as I keep saying it's well documented C5 never wanted the civilian version of the show and Endemol told them CBB comes as a package deal, so they had no choice but to take it on. Until the ratings are free-falling and there's literally no legitimate reason why they should keep the civilian series on air anymore, they're going to have a hard time telling Endemol they don't want to pay for a ten week programme anymore

So yes they will have to look for a justifiable excuse, and that seems ever closer to me

They've promoted the show fine in my opinion. They're running adverts, have done stuff on youtube and snapchat I don't know why you expect them to do so much. No channel goes all out and promotes a show to such extent you expect for Big Brother every single year.

Obviously I'd rather not have the show axed but after 17 years I realise the show has ran for an amazing amount of time and if it comes to an end so be it.

You do keep saying that and I still haven't seen anything to proof of it being "well documented" that endemol are forcing C5 to keep normal BB.
