Talks to bring Big Brother to Channel 5 are at "an advanced stage", industry insiders have claimed.

Broadcast reports that negotiations between the reality show's production company Endemol and Richard Desmond, the owner of Channel 5, have re-opened in recent months and a final deal could be just a few weeks away.

The publication claims that the agreement could tie Big Brother to the broadcaster for as long as five years, though this could be reduced if performance targets are missed.

Desmond is also believed to be interested in relaunching Celebrity Big Brother and extending the main programme's run past the traditional 13-week mark.

Desmond had identified Big Brother as an ideal format for the rebranded Channel 5 following his £103.5 million takeover in July 2010. However, talks broke down in September, allegedly over Desmond's determination to pay less than the estimated £70 million price tag attached to Channel 4's three-year contract for the programme in 2006.

Big Brother concluded its 11th and final series on Channel 4 on August 24, 2010. The show's 'last' episode, which saw series two champion Brian Dowling win an Ultimate competition, aired 17 days later and ended with the message "Big Brother will get back to you."

BB10 showed how good it can be and that was only 1 year ago (from BB11 anyway)

so this BB can be just as good BB10 is probably my 2nd fave series after BB6

BB10 had a special aura. It was bloody amazing, alright. On reflection it's probably my favourite series ever. It felt like this rundown house full of a dozen or so genuinly unknown nutters that only six or seven people were watching.

I hated the 11 tasks too ... actually I hated everything about it. I'm a purist when it comes to the production of the show and music on Big Brother ... video montages on Big Brother ... it was sickening. I didn't like a single housemate ... the house that looked so amazing in the pics just looked daft on TV ... and I can't even remember a single task.

BB10's tasks were rubbish too. The task team basically had a map of the world and uh ... yeah.

Patrick's got it right when he said it was all about the housemates. Virtually nothing Channel 4 did helped the show and the entire thing was down to the housemates being fantastic.

This is very true.

On launch and stuff the house just looked ridiculous, the glass walls made it look awkward and everything just looked really weird.

In the pictures it looked ten times better that may of been down to the fact they were of the unfinished house before Bob Righter and that went in, or down to the fact the house just wasn't made for TV.

Couldn't of said it better myself.

BB11 felt more like an 'Event' and was talked about alot more than BB10 was.

So when watching that it felt like everyone was and it didn't feel like that in '09 because we were all aware of how badly BB10 was doing.

I was watching a random episode of it on Thursday Morning there, I was bored, and it basically reminded me of how it went downhill when it became all about Noirin.

But before that when it was about Marcus and Sree constantly fighting and stuff like that, was brilliant.

The only down points [like i said about the producers earlier] was the house was a disgrace and the tasks were dull and recycled.

The housemates literally ran the show, I don't mean that in the sense the producers were doing jack all.. well that too, but I mean there were times when Siavash and Marcus could just walk all over the producers, Marcus especially.

BB10 was rubbish most of the time.

It showed how good it can be if they pick a good bunch of Housemates, because let's face it Marcus Akin was Big Brother in 2009.

And Charlie, What a legend and I'll never forget Bea and Halfwit when Bea was told to go to Jail and Halfwit bounced up to lock her in but Roddy got it first and she was like:


'Ahhh, Darn!'
'Oh sorry Freddy, Can't make it everytime..'
'Yeah what can you do eh? Haha!'
'Hehe.. Little ******er!'

And Roddy just goes 'Oooh.. How Rude Bea!'



But the production of BB10 was a ******ing disgrace.
They need to do what they did in BB5, BB6, BB7 and BB9.
Get the producers working their dicks off to make it amazing and have outstanding housemates.

hell yes i wanna be a housemate

I would pass the tests, I know I'm not mentally stable but I'd do a good job to hide it until I got in.

If Shabaz, Lea, Nikki, Pete and the rest of the BB7 Cast could fake being normal then so can I!

, yeah, but it was BB7 which triggered the tests to be put in place, or at least stricter measures
