As it's going to incorporate what Big Brother's Little Brother evolves into, I think you may be out of luck on that hope

I imagine they'll use the same studio yes. Or another studio at Elstree -but it doesn't sound like that grand a production. In-fact i get the impression Ch4 really don't give a toss about this show. It seems more of cheap 'Big Brother' add-onn designed to keep the viewers it'll no doubt bring for that little bit longer rather then a shot at finding a hit new breakfast show.

But from what I've read about the show in the papers those of us who actually have jobs won't be missing much. Jordan is apparently signed up as the shows agony aunt and one of the nobodies from Space Cadets (remember That?) also has his own feature. Inspiring Rolling Eyes

It's most likely to be Alex Zane from the Satellite Show in my opinion.

It was OK - a couple of OK features but just something wasn't right. Also seemed stupid them promoting Soapstar Superstar after talking Big Brother for half an hour.

Quite surprised it was a completly seperate set from BBLB - they must have 4 studios going in that area at the moment (MG, BBLB, BBBM and the eviction studio).

To be fair though it did look like a corner of the BBLB studio...

It was bland and not very Channel 4 - In fact IMO it looked like something from ITV Day. Paint by numbers TV to the very extreme - Start with a "comic"/celebrity doing a "humorous" paper review, end with a what's on TV tonight feature, throw in some light hearted crap in between and you've got another safe Ch4 breakfast show that would even have looked as stale & bland 10 years ago now. Rolling Eyes

It's about time Ch4 remembered what it's supposed to be and offered something a bit edgier. Some how I doubt a 5 minute feature on Cilia Black is going to pull in the 16-35 yr olds in their droves Rolling Eyes
