Seriously though, Desmond has got what he wanted - this thread had (finally) died off, because there was nothing new to speculate about. Now it's all a-buzz again. There's still nothing new to speculate about, but the story has just had some major coverage in a national newspaper, and that gives it some currency and legitimacy.
Forums all over the interwebs are full of this once more, and Desmond can go to Endemol tomorrow morning and say, "are you sure you lot really want to keep hanging on for [whatever it is they're still insisting on putting in the contract that Desmond doesn't like]? Look at all the chatter, people are desperate for Big Brother! The sooner you sign the contract the sooner you can start making money! Come on! Do it! Do it now!"
Or words to that effect, anyway.  |
At least it shows that there are fans who still want it and lots and lots and lots of fans
. It didn't die a death yet and with the live feed the numbers will be big again. Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
