Ben Frow has said, if it is to return next year, it won’t be returning in it’s current form. They won’t be spending the money thay they are now on it. Who knows what that means...
I’m 99% sure this will be the last year though and honestly... I’m not as bothered as I thought I’d be oops |

I really don't think they could put any less effort in than they already are, the show would be basically unrecognisable
 The only thing I could see is maybe another channel gets it and does a pre-recorded short version of the US format or something? I can't see channel 5 doing that because they'd be making less off of it without voting. If they're gonna totally butcher it and make it like TOWIE then I'd rather it just went.

Yeh, the only way it could survive this year (that I’d want to see) is doing the US/Canada format.
The easy way to save money though is to axe the Summer CBB, they spend millions on housemates only for a small uplift in audience

Yeah they really don't need both CBBs... The last summer was essential was the Charlotte series which is coming up for 5 years ago! It would improve the January series as they could put some of the budget into that, and then obviously the rest into civilian. I'd much rather they put more into civilian, even if the series wasn't extended, than have a lacklustre extra celeb series each year. All they really need to do is just keep it back to basics a bit, we don't need or even want it stripped right back to BB1, that'd be too drastic, but they got it right mostly last year even. We just need more great characters and real genuine people like Isabelle, Deborah and Raph, and less reality TV wannabes and similar fame whores, less twists, just so it feels more like classic Big Brother. It's not that hard and it's not gonna require tonnes more money being spent on it, but we've said this for years upon years and they just never get it totally right and hit their stride again with civilian.
It might be best for say Netflix or something similar to just grab it and do the US format, it would be a shame to miss the live aspects of it, as in the fanbase and stuff on Twitter I feel it engages me much more when we all tweet along live, or come on here straight after and dissect the episode. I'd miss that, but if it's a choice between that and Ben Frow making it into basically a TOWIE/Geordie Shore clone, which I think is what they're probably hinting at when they say "not in its current state", then I'd much rather have a Netflix US format show. I can't see that happening though, I think if another channel gets it, it'll be relegated to like W or something and end up even worse with even less effort Or that'll just be it for BB.

I will truly miss the show over the summer, it was always a summer show association for me.

They really hate civ BB don't they?
Maybe CBB in August with it ending September? Then a really short (and probably final) civ BB starting a week or so later? I dunno. C5 are the pits. EDIT: Yeah.. QUOTE According to the latest reports, Celebrity Big Brother will instead begin the season in 'mid-August', followed by Big Brother in the autumn. “We delayed everything until Love Island is out of the way," a source told the Daily Star newspaper. "Then fans will be ready for us. We'd usually start with a regular series but we're launching with all guns blazing with celebrities." This post has been edited by Jαsє: Jun 17 2018, 12:17 AM |

Putting civilian after celeb definitely makes it seem like a goodbye series
I get them leaving it until after Love Island but it's f***ing stupid how much they seem to hate BB, even though figures have dropped a hell of a lot it's still getting better views than most things C5 would show surely? I guess it costs more than Can't Pay Jane McDonald'll Take It Away and Jane McDonald On Benefits, but still. If they put a bit of effort in the payback would be greater, they'll probably fart out a final series that's as long as a celeb one and be done with it.
