So will he get bleeped a lot in case he mentions any potential cases?

Its on Channel 5, so the answer is most likely 'no'.

I barely watched it when it was on Channel 4. It being on Channel 5 makes no difference to me. Though I suspect that there are plenty who will watch it on 5. _________________Do concentrate, 007...

Channel 4 dropped it because the viewing figures tanked. Channel 5 picked it up because their idea of a good audience is lower than 4's (i.e. a poor audience for Channel 4 is a good audience for Channel 5). It's simply not the phenomenon it once was, as much as certain showbiz media claim it to still be. The fact is the only channel talking about is channel 5 and the only paper talking about it is the Daily Star which is coincidentally owned by the man who owns Channel 5. It used to be bread and circuses to keep the peasants occupied. Now even the peasants ignore it in the main. It's an irrelevance, even more than it ever was such.

I truly detest BB, as I do all reality shows, and was quite pleased when I heard Channel 4 were dropping it. So I was fairly miffed when I heard it was coming back, although the fact that it was Channel 5 deciding flog the dead horse reduced that to a mild irritation - I've only ever watched Channel 5 when they aired some football internationals a few years ago.
It's quite a surprise that 5 is still going, given how few people seem to watch anything on it.

The only thing I liked on Channel 5 was the US dramas like CSI, but I have seen all of them I think. So the only thing I watch on it now is the Gadget Show. _________________Do concentrate, 007...

If you watch britain's got talent, the X factor, I'm a celebrity get me out of here, the apprentice, dancing on ice, strictly come dancing, the voice, etc, you have no right to say anything against big brother. I think they're all [LIFTED], but I can never hold it against someone as I like big brother.

The only good thing about Big Brother is Emma Willis https://www.google.com/search?q=emma+wi ... 72#imgrc=_I don't watch any of the reality shows, I've got a low cringe threshold. _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

Same here. It is because they are remarkably cheap to make explains why they are made. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21
