The way Channel 5 have treated this show is absolutely laughable. What exactly is the point?

Their reluctance to have Friday finals meaning it ends on Day 36?

I hope it changes, even if it's not a great series of C5 are choosing to air BB they owe it to the fans to make it a decent length, even if it was slightly longer than Bb17 id be ok that didn't feel massively short

Probably yeah, after all the backlash they got for cutting last series short, wether they planned on having it 50 days all along or not

They've slowly increased the duration of CBB over the past two years whilst decreasing the civilian, C5 aren't even hiding it anymore lmfao

Apparently it's to cover their back if ratings flop they won't get harassed for 'shortening' the series (as it's already short)
But it means there's more chance of it being extended if it does ok

This is ridiculous. Is it only to make us feel good with ourselves when they "do us a favour" and "extend" it to its real length of 50 days?
I'm not buying it. Endemol should prevent this stupid idea.
