Default Head of 'Five': "We are interested in CBB"
May not be the end after all!

http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-rad...r-channel-four

Five would be the perfect home. It couldn't work in the mainstream of ITV, and it couldn't work in the obscurity of Sky.

All the Live From Studio Five coverage makes sense.

But they're not interested in the main series, he thinks that has to go away for a while. But if they ran a 3 week CBB for a few years and then brought BB back in about 2015, it could work.

I'd rather them take on Big Brother too, but hey, this is understandable, and I guess one is better than nothing.

Always thought CBB had a good chance of survival over the normal BB. It's shorter length i'm sure makes it a lot more appealing. Really hope Five pick it up.

It's way better than nothing. But I would still prefer it if they opted for the main series instead.

Great news anyway. It will be nice to see Big Brother away from the claws of Channel 4.

I wouldn't be surprised if Five do pick CBB up, they have always been the most likely broadcaster to pick it up, especially with Richard as controller.
I would prefer the summer series to be saved over the celebrity version but i'm sure if Five do pick CBB up then the summer series would return after a few years rest

CBB is more attractive to broadcasters because if it all goes wrong on launch night then in theory they can put it right by signing up a big name and get it allover the papers then it should fix itself. But if BB goes wrong on launch night (and it did in BB8 and 10) then thats it, theres no saving it and it will be 3 months of bad ratings and a wasted investment.

I hope CBB returns, the summer one needs a rest but after that then whoever decides to snap it up if that happens can get the show back to what made it great in the first place.

Endemol will still be producing the show, it will be exactly the same show (unless Endemol change it) just on C5

Hopefully they do pick it up, I prefer the celebrity series' to be honest. The summer ones drag on forever and it can get boring quickly!
