Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

I wonder are they picking out the Celebs now. They would really want to as a lot of the time they will only do the show for a certain figure or they might not be able to do it at the time it will be aired. I hope they pick good Celebs as well and ones who have a sense of humor

---------- Post added at 18:07 ---------- Previous post was at 18:06 ----------

Oh and also I hope they give us the live feed as well even if you have to pay for it online I dont care as long as we get it.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

A Comic relief one would be good as they know it's for a good cause. Remember the first one :)

Live feed is a must... plus I hear the show will be in HD!!!! :)

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

I missed the first one :( Didn't even know it was on. Dont have HD but I dont care. As long as It's big brother then I'm fine with that and have live feed as well https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2011/01/1.gif When does comic relief start?

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

18th of march :)

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Are they going to air it that soon? https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2011/01/1.gif

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

big brother big brother big brother

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

If they haven't signed deal or anything that seems like a short time scale to get things going?

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

its going to be bk in the summer and they planning on signing the bill which is great news im so happy

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

I wouldn't be surprised if they had already got Celebes lined up espically as it would be for comic relief as well but who knows. Also if the Celebs want there profile back and the price is good to appear then they should have no problem. Well I hope not :(

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

It wasn't just Telewest. I was/am with VM (former NTL area - not Telewest) and had red button live service for one or two seasons with VM. I was really interested in it in the beginning. Couldn't be bothered with a few seasons in the middle, but have watched the last 3 or 4. Always watch the launch with a view to not watching the series, but get hooked anyway.

I did think it was getting past its sell by date, and was quite happy that they were ending it.

The Channel 5 thing though isn't new news - it was announced halfway through the series that C5 were buying it. Obviously talks have taken longer than planned, but it's not a surprise. Rumours were high that it was going to completely revamp the format.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Talks broke down and Richard Desmond walked away from the table and wouldn't give a deal but they have come back now and it looks like they both agreed to whatever and sorted there differences

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Ah, thanks for that. I had just assumed it was pretty much a done deal last year. It will be interesting to see what C5 do with it, but I'm not overly bothered either way. (and no that's not a slam on BB fans - I was hooked last year on the JJJ thing :shocked: so was on the receiving end of the nasties LOL)

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Your more than welcome :D:D

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

It will be a dark dark day if this goes ahead.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Why? :erm:

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Because its a sad excuse for a tv programme, and about as entertaining as watching grass grow. A bunch of sad weirdos, apparently chosen just to aggravate each other. C4 gave the mercy killing it required.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Ok I understand you dont like it and I respect you for that and thats ok. But a lot of people like it so I really dont see what the big deal is. Each to there own and its not like you have one station and are stuck in watching it. I avoid programmes I dont like

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Not on this forum - over on DS. They thought those of us who believed JJJ was real were living in cloud cookoo land and weren't very nice about it. same kind of nastiness that goes on between the 'I love BB and I hate BB' factions.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Ah right. I didn't like John James but other people did and I think he got away with an awful lot. I loved Ben. He was cute

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

I for one am very glad it will be back.
My only worry is will they be able to equal if not better what they achived in the final BB?

As to those who do not like it, do what I do when Football comes on, turn over!

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

I bet they will do a better job than Channel four as they will want to attract back the fans and if they dont interfer with the format of the nominations and are strict when rules are broken and also have it a vote to save insted of evict they will do well and also have good tasks

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal

Richard Desmond is understood to be on the verge of signing a deal with Endemol to bring Big Brother to Channel 5.

It is understood that the commercial terms have been agreed leaving just the official final sign-off by both parties, which is expected within days barring any 11th hour hiccups, to seal the deal. Big Brother came to an end after 10 years on Channel 4 in September.

This looks like very good news https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/02/51.gif

Wonder why all of a sudden they have gone so quiet when two weeks ago we were getting drip feed news. It dont add up really. Thought there was supposed to be an announcement yesterday but nothing. They would want to tell us soon one way or another whats happening https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/02/36.gif

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Channel 5 were supposed to have gone back to the table to do a deal after talks broke down and are/were supposed to tell us that they were going to air bb but after all the drip feeding now Its gone very quiet again :(

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

I'm half afraid to get excited anymore in case they do the same thing again and walk away from the table without making a deal. http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/a...ley-emotic.gif we want big brother back :(

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

Let hope Davina comes back, it will never be the same without her saying "Big brother house, this is Davina. You are live on channel X, please do not swear"

Somebody else would sound oh so wrong.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

She said last week she wont be doing it as she has moved on and also has four projects now. She said she would love to see Emma Willis do it as she is a big fan of the show http://www.officialdavina.com/blog

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

ive still got hope and ill never give up. it may not be back this year but it will be back some day

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

TBH, I doubt it will be back this year. Even if the deal was agreed tomorrow, they would still need to advertise, vet the applicants then audition them. They would also need to find presenters for the assorted shows, and either refurbish the old house, or possibly build a new one. Either could need planning permission.

Traditionally, bb starts in June, which gives them about 3 months to do all that.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

They could take the outcasts that Channel 4 had left over and also the house have planning permission until 2013 and it wouldn't take long to get the house in order but in saying that if they said that it was coming back and it would be next year then I would still be happy as at least we would know what was hapening

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

me 2 i don't think it be back this year. but it be back one day

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 

yeah, I think that was the plan if the deal goes through.
