Channel 4 will bring back Celebrity Big Brother for one last series before it ditches the BB format for good, The Daily Star has claimed.
According to the paper, the broadcaster has taken the unexpected decision to have one final star-studded run, despite Friday’s lavish finale which marked the apparent end of their association with the show.
A ‘source’ was quoted as saying: “Channel 4 has been really pleased with the ratings and amount of coverage for this year’s Big Brother and Ultimate Big Brother, so they don’t want to let it go just yet.
“It will probably look a bit strange after everyone thought it was the last we’d see of it on Channel 4, but it will be worth it financially for them to have one final run.”
They added: “The celebrity version always comes up trumps in the ratings, and there’s always a lot more drama because they all have big egos.”
