Could they extend this series?

Earlier this year they extended CBB by nearly a week because it was getting good ratings.

Could they do the same with this series?

Hope not, it's not been that enjoyable. Just like the regular series it is far too negative.

I guess you could say they have! This one was scheduled for 4 weeks as opposed to the usual 3 anyway

God I hope not. I think I'm BB'd out for this year. Both BB and CBB have been very waring this year.

When it finishes two weeks tomorrow it will be barely 15 weeks till the next one

Agreed! I honestly can't say I have been entertained overall by either series. There have been one or two moments but blink & you miss them. If BB is to continue beyond the current contract I want it OFF Channel 5 & hopefully another Channel can repair the damage that they have caused by their insistence on excessive manipulating & depressing obsessiveness with bitching! It's very tedious to watch!

Agree and the showmances are a pain. I personally do not want to see sex on my telly. Back to basics would be good. BB this year felt like 20 weeks rather than 10. I'm seriously considering getting a life next year

admittingly I hope they don't and that's coming from a MASSIVE BB fan. Not that im not enjoying CBB because I am, its just that im at that point, and every year I always get to this point no matter how great a series its been, where I am sort of looking forward to not having the 'commitment' of watching BB everynight. its hard to explain because obviously no one is forcing me to watch it and don't get me wrong I have enjoyed this year's civilian and celebrity BB but in order to follow BB it is sort of a 'commitment' if you know what I mean to watch every night or catchup if you miss it.

So, no I wanna just enjoy the last week or so left, let it end and in only about 4 months it'll be back again and i'll be more excited after few months break

I hope they don't extend it. I'm rapidly losing interest in the lot of them.

I know this is for the last series but I didn't see any point in creating a new thread.

This series has a lot of buzz around it and seems to be the longest already, is there a chance it might be extended?

Earlier this year? We're only in January & this one has been going for half of it!

This series already feels as though it's been longer than a typical summer series....PLEASSSSE NO, DO NOT WISH THAT ON US!!

EDITED: Sorry, didn't realize the FM before me posted an a post more than 6 months old! I stand by the second part of my response though.

I think it could get away with being extended by half a week or so but I don't think the celebs would be best pleased with thaf. It does feel like it's not quite ready to be finished yet... It's felt more like the pace of normal BB than CBB with only one eviction per week for the first two weeks.

I will say yes as I am out next Friday

For anyone needing a Big Brother fix before it starts again I'd strongly suggest watching Big Brother Canada - Starting in March. It quite fabulous!

I won't be watching our normal series as it's terrible on Channel 5 so I only stick to the celebrity versions. However the Canadian version was great last year and also had something called a Live Feed which our version doesn't have.

As soon as it starts I'll post links on here. Its moved channels this year so not 100% sure.. But it really is great, once you get used to the format change (no public vote and head of house)
