Well after this year, the format arguably does need to be reworked a bit - at various points (building the second house after the show had started etc) the production team seemed to be running pretty low on ideas. I'm not sure what sort of effect a move to ITV would have - the only thing I watch on ITV is Footballers Wives, so I dare say I've got a slightly skewed idea of it's output, but if it would be possible to transplant some of the FW spirit into the Big Brother house, that might at least make for an interesting experiment. Presumably there'd be more money on the table at ITV, so maybe we could watch the housemates crack up slightly in the lap of absurd luxury for a change.
I don't know how 'family friendly' ITV's supposed to be these days, but if that's still part of it's remit, I suppose something else they could do is introduce some older housemates to the mix, for example someone of the calibre of Aisleyne's Dad. Ok Susie didn't really work out this year, but they do seem to need to widen the contestant gene pool a bit, and that would be one way of doing it. The odd glamorous granny or rock and roll grandad might well be a disaster, but not necessarily a dull one, especially if the grey vote got behind them. |
