Yep. Pretty much all the shows enter Ch5 Top 10 of the week. Normally 6 out of 7. With only NCIS higher.

The ratings are unpredictable because most people dont have the time to watch the show every night for 10 weeks. Those times have gone. The ratings would be far higher if the number of HL shows per week were reduced to say 4 on set days.

What are they doing instead?

Those times have gone.

But now there are more time-shift and platform alternatives available to watch the HLs.

You have a tendency to get very overdramatic. This is not the last series, C5 has already signed a contract for 2 more. Clearly they were satisfied enough with BB12's "poor" ratings to want to order two more regular series after BB13. Given the fact that this year's ratings are significantly up (minus this week) from last year, I doubt they are considering canceling it.

Sunday did well!

Finally, someone who is thinking the same as me. If last years 1.6 million is enough for them, then this is going to be more than enough! Channel 5 are keeping the civilian series, they've ordered another two series. This years average will be 1.8/1.9 which is up, and Channel 5 will be happy. If they wanted to cancel normal BB, they would have done it last year.

FINALLY some sense! Desmond wanted 2 million vieers. This will average 1.9ish, so if 1.6 was good enough, why wouldn't 1.9? Besides, CBB gets higher ratings, but costs a hell of a lot to run.

Exactly! CBB costs millions to put on and is only justified because of the higher ratings, regular BB is much cheaper to put on, although it runs for longer, they probably make more money from regular BB.

Celebrity Big Brother is going to fail after this series, they've made the wrong decision. I hate Celebrity Big Brother. Honest. January is enough. I wanted a 13 week summer of Deana.

I can't see this CBB rating high.

[Jake.]

I reckon CBB will average 2 million, if its lucky.

1.1 for last night (excluding +1)

Expected though. Everything was down because of the weather last night. A lot of low rated shows this week because of that. Also BB was up against Eastenders which got just under 8m, Ab Fab which returned with almost 6m and Superstar (which has flopped though). Everything else was significantly down. Channel 4 only had 1 show over 1m. Eastenders was a live episode so I am sure that is like 7m down on last times live episode which got like 14m.

[Jarrod]

It was expected. This week is going to be a tough week for Big Brother, especially Friday. BTW Salv, I asked Channel 5 on my BB Twitter, and they've confirmed that they have changed the Friday Listings to

9pm - 10:30pm: Big Brother: Live Eviction
10:30-11pm: Live Feed
11:30- 12:15am: BBBBOTS

Ok i'm gonna say this for the final time.

Show me the article that states the regular series will 100% return because i have seen no proof, just forum members assuming that just because they renewed the contract for the format that Channel 5 have to run another 2 series of normal and CBB.

Yes they have renewed the contract but i have seen no written proof that they have to run both.

Can you please post me the article which you obviously saw with your own eyes and not just heard on a forum and then we can have this argument about me being over dramatic.

To the people saying this year will average 1.9 you are mistaken. The ratings over the last 2 weeks have put an end to that. Mondays only just scraped over a million and that was including +1.

A rating of under 1 million will not bring the whole average of the series down btw. Wait for the officials before you start jumping to conclusions. And Channel 5 have paid for the contract which gives them CBB for 2013 and 2014, and BB for 2013 and 2014. If BB12s ratings were a big enough incentive to order more regular series, why would BB13s higher ratings change their minds? Yes, its been a rough week or two, but BB13 is still rating higher than BB12.

Where are you getting these ratings from?

BB12 was the first BB on Channel 5 so obviously they would have another afterwards to really judge how it was performing.

People are not willing to accept the fact that the ratings the last couple of weeks have been the poorest in the history of the show.

If you honestly think that weeks of it just scraping a million wont bring down the overall average then you are mistaken.

With the olympics starting on Friday its only going to hinder ratings even more.

And yes i pooed the bed, screamed with delight then rolled around in it.

Can you please post the link that specifically says they have to run both the regular series and CBB? Ive asked a million times so people who arguing this can back up the claim but noone seems to have it. You are just assuming and going by what fm's are saying and do not have actual evidence of Channel 5 saying they have to run both series.

They have extended the contract yes but that may not mean they are obligated to run both.

So, link to your facts please

To people saying Channel 5 will be happy with the ratings i think you need to come down to earth a little. Since Friday without plus 1 BB was watched by under a million on Friday, Saturday and Monday. They will not be happy about that.

Post a link saying that CH5 can go back on their contract willy nilly. Its signed, BB14 and 15 is happening. And clearly 1.6 million for BB12 was enough for CH5 to get 3 more series, so a series with higher ratings will be fine in their books.

Why are you not understanding this?

POST A LINK STATING THAT CHANNEL 5 HAVE 100% CONFIRMED THEY WILL RUN THE REGULAR BB ASWELL AS CBB.

They have not confirmed they will run summer BB just that the format has been renewed so we could be seeing just CBB from now on.

How hard is that for you to understand.

You stated its fact that regular BB will return aswell so i want a link to where you read it, if not then you are purely going on word of mouth.

BB13 was, WAS, doing better than BB12 but has not been in the past 2 weeks. 3 sub 1 million episodes in 4 days will not bode well for Channel 5.

Get it?

Oh stop being rude and childish. You want a link, look it up for yourself. Who says endemol would allow two regular series to be transformed into two celebrity series just like that? Channel 5, (Im not saying this again) were happy with 1.6 to renew 3 new regular series. Even with the last week, this year is well above BB12. Get it?

No its not, the last week has been down on last years figures, what part of below 1 million viewers in 3 days dont you understand?

You dont know what you're talking about so you really shouldnt be having this discussion with me.

Who says Endemol will transorm 2 regular series to celeb one "just like that"?

They haven't even confirmed that the regular series is defo returning so thats why i asked for the link but obviously you haven't got or seen one confirming what you're saying is true.

Yes CBB is 100% confirmed for 2 more years but i haven't seen 1 official statement saying that normal BB will and neither have you.

[Jake.]

And you have no idea what you are on about either, funny how you keep on bringing up bad ratings but fail to mention high points, like Sundays 1.4 million. Up to week five, this series is officially averaging 1.92 million viewers. With week six and seven in mind, yes it may be brought down, but this series has been doing brilliant when it comes to officials. TV in general has lost viewers over the past few days due to the whether, thats a fact. Most shows have lost viewers, so stop over dramatising. And where on earth is there a document claiming that CBB but not BB is on for another two years? Yes, the past few days have been down on last years figures, but the first 5-6 weeks have been up. What part of that dont you understand?
