I aint fallin for it and I sneakily believe Marcus hasn't fallen for it.....sure they said the prize money has gone and they have chances to win it back,
By the end of the series mark my words BB will ensure all the money has been won back.

BB =

shazzyshaz · 27-08-2009, 08:04 PM

I would find it more funny that they dont make the money back and there is no prize money what a ending

mcka · 27-08-2009, 08:12 PM

I agree the money will be there at the end...

It's the only way BB can get the housemates to DO anything they just lie around and moan all day

the winning HM will make more then 100k in interviews and publicity after the show so it really doesn't matter.

is that the case?

I know that's true for the more photogenic ones (and more likely female) ..but surely David and Lisa wouldn't? (not that they will win)

lol you've just answered that question yourself.

MissKittyFantastico · 27-08-2009, 08:23 PM

I don't think they'll win all the money back at all.

Ch 4 are trying to save as much money as they can this year.

I can see the prize fund ending up being around 70k or something like that.

There isn't as much interest in the mags and newspapers this year and what with Katie Price, Peter Andre and Kerry Katona the space in the rags is pretty much being swallowed up by those three boring the readers to tears. (I would just like to open my newspapers to a KP,PA and KK freezone - no chance I suppose!)

NolasGirl · 27-08-2009, 08:24 PM

I agree completely with the OP. They wouldn't get away with doing that, it's part of the contract, and one of fundamental terms of the show. Marcus (based on the clips I've seen)..only sharp one in there.

trucker · 27-08-2009, 08:30 PM

It wont be long before we'll see if I'm right.

Marcus refused to cut the pony off....couple of days time they'll offer him another chance in another way, knowing they couldn't get to him with his hair.

Violetfairy · 27-08-2009, 08:38 PM

As someone else posted BB are just trying desperately to LIVEN the house up by setting these terrible tasks YAWN YAWN

to win the prize money back.

I really wish that they didn't get it all back, just to see those sad, pathetic faces

shazzyshaz · 27-08-2009, 08:42 PM

Does someone know for sure its written in this years contract there will def be prize money? For all we know they have left it out if they knew this was the last ever BB what a twist, plus it would be fun seeing who is desperate enough to win back the money rather than "I am only here for the experience of being on BB"

It would have to be in the contract, the prize money was a declaration by BB.

shazzyshaz · 27-08-2009, 08:54 PM

ok I will take your word for it, but either way it was fun seeing some of the housemates faces and see what they will do to win that money back

trucker · 27-08-2009, 08:56 PM

There is one thing I forgot to mention though...it could also state in the contract that BB have the right to withdraw the prize money if the HMs' break the contract...heheh.

Charlie was ******** himself lol.

Shasown · 27-08-2009, 09:02 PM

The year Nadia won it the prize money was taken away and she only won about 65 thousand. The prize money has to be there at the start however as its a game show the prize fund can be reduced or increased on the whims of BB. Consequently the contact only needs to state "win up to £100,000".

Incidentally its Endemol (technically Brighter Pictures- a subsidary of endemol), who runs BB not CH4, they only air it. so Channel 4 wont be saving anything by the prize money being taken away.

shazzyshaz · 27-08-2009, 09:09 PM

well something to look forward to then, we will see how much they do get for winning, previous shows they have made more by being evicted half way through because once BB is over so is all the magazine deals unless they are really popular with the public

DiamondDogTags · 27-08-2009, 09:11 PM

I hope that they don't get anything.

trucker · 27-08-2009, 09:40 PM

This is purely a ruse by BB to increase TV ratings, knowing BB fans will stay tuned to see how and if the HMs' will succeed.

BB you think your clever just like your Adverts...BUT i'VE SUSSED YOU!
