Well as long as Top Gear and QI are still on.

The rest of television will be switched off a few days later with the exception of Dave.

Oh crap. Sounds like there'll be one more series next year before it finally dies.

Re: Big Brother to be axed?

This is actually bad news for the other commercial channels, because it now means that they'll have to spend more money on their summer schedules, which will have the knock-on effect that their schedules for the rest of the year will be that much weaker as a result.

Oh, what a shame. Still, at least we can avoid that final series and be safe the knowledge that after that, we are free from it forever.

What’s Davina going to do? Peddling hair colour and anti-ageing tat can only last for so long before they tire of her too.

Re: Big Brother to be axed?

Don't really understand why everyone's so anti Big Brother. There are plenty of programmes I can't stand, so I don't watch 'em.
