I'm not too surprised really. The producers have done their best to wreck it this year. It's amazing how they can cock up something that's so easy to make interesting.

Half the time I don't even realise that it's on. The time that I tend to find out is working nights and I start channel-hopping at around 3am. All I tend to find is them asleep. I don't remember them going to bed quite so early in the past.

If people want to take part and watch the program then I haven't a problem with it. What I have a MAJOR problem with is hype, like we are all supposed to care and the fact that you can't find decent programs on C4 and More 4 during BB season. Otherwise, I couldn't give a [LIFTED]

I'm afraid to hope this is true (especially as it comes from The Sun and Mail) :P

I still enjoy the show. Though I tend just to watch the catch up programme and the eviction.

Watching Bea being kicked out last week was fun.

:D

Yup, heard it on the radio this morning. Cheered me up no end.

Lets hope "I'm a sleb..." follows soon after.

Mr Cat, please don't try to turn this into a discussion of the present series.

Obviously, you're only one of the fewer than two million people who are tuning in regularly this time. Presumably the other one million nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine are too pissed to notice what they're watching...

Before you all start getting too exited...

The show is not expected to disappear from TV screens, with the prospect of makers Endemol securing a deal with another broadcaster.

I've watched it pretty much every year. Not the 24hr feeds of even every episode but I always kept up with what was going on. This year though when I saw the bunch of mutants they put in the house I switched off and didnt watch it again. I honestly did not know it was still on when I was an advert for voting the other night.

I've never understood why anybody would want to watch the live streaming. You can't tell what's going on and they turn the sound down half the time. The evening show is all I've ever bothered watching.

The latest news is that the television watchdog has decded to axe all television programmes apart from Coronation Street, Top Gear, QI, Match of the Day and The Cube. The statement said "generally, no one gives a [LIFTED] any more". They'll start by diluting the news, including hours of boring arguments with tired politicians, brain numbing celebrity news and headshots of young people who have died, then they'll axe it when there are fewer than 5 viewers, probably around lunch next thursday. The rest of television will be switched off a few days later with the exception of Dave.
