ITS OFFICIAL!!!, keep in mind the owner of Channel 5 is the same owner of The Daily Star, why would he lie in his own paper.

It's not official. The contracts have not been signed. What you have there is an outline of what Channel 5 will do if the contracts are signed.

Dirty Desmond is not above using his papers to try to favour his own side as the negotiations draw to a close. He will be trying to get viewers excited and most probably making the case to Endemol for the show to be done in the way he wants it done.

It probably will happen, but there's no ink on the contracts yet, so don't start planning your opening night party. ;)

Damn, i was printing flyers out for a launch party haha.

You are right, this could turn out to be a publicity stunt to get more viewers on the channel, who knows.

It's amazing how seeing something in print can make you think it's true ... even if you know that it's not. The people at Endemol will be reading all about this today, and getting texts, phone calls and Tweets from people who know they're involved, congratulating them, telling them how exciting it is, etc etc etc. All of which will serve to make them think themselves that it really must be exciting, they really have done something clever, etc. As a result, whatever the final sticking point is, the one thing that stopped the contracts being signed weeks ago, might now just seem not important enough to keep holding out on. They may just go back into work on Monday morning and give Desmond whatever it is he has been demanding.

Never underestimate the power of a PR campaign, especially when you own the newspaper that's doing the PR. ;)

I dont think he would be that stupid to go to the trouble of advertising it if he wasn't going to show it.

On the contrary, he is clever enough to know the value of saying he's going to show it, even though he doesn't yet have the contract to show it. ;)

Sorry dude, but Wikipedia is not an authoritative source, especially not on pages that can be edited by just anyone, and especially on a topic that is loaded with fanboys who so desperately want something to be true that they will latch onto anything that gives them hope - even if the essence of the story is that nobody has signed any contracts yet, and there is no date set when they will be signed.

I'm not saying it isn't going to happen, I'm just appealing for people to be a bit less hysterical and to see Dirty Desmond's PR campaign for what it is.

I think you'll find the Wikipedia entry is a little more accurate now.

So now we have got BB Mk2 back, the questions is now:

Who will be the host? Some mighty fine high heels to fill ;)
Will there be a BBLB?
Will there be a BBBM?

I know we have heard about Miss Cole but that is not the best presenter. Eye candy yes but presenting... no.
Has to be someone well known, funny and at ease with live tv

Emma Willis for BBLB for sure.
