I mean that Carphone Warehouse have withdrawn sponsorship and that viewer numbers has gone down 8.8% in two days.
I haven't watched any this year, but for those who have been, will you boycott it too?

Just heard on the radio now that the Shilpa Shetty is now favourite to win and that the London Academy of Televisual and Radio Arts is boycotting the show.

I think everyone should boycott... not exactly for the reasons that everyone is on about now, but simply because Big Brother has had its day and they've dragged it out for too many years now... they try and pretend it is different each year but it really isn't... time to put it to bed I think and actually start creating interesting and intellectually challenging programmes

I do not watch the show and do not know any of the people inside well enough to care about them but all these type of shows put different people together who will not get on to make 'good' telly and strife and conflict is the name of the game.
However this show has gone down down a road that the organisers did not forsee and it is now causing strife and conflict for them which the polls and talking heads did not think about.

Audiences falling? What better way to 'up' the ratings by causing a controversy? works on the gullible every time.
B.B. a rubbish show, filled with a bunch of posing, no hope'rs showing off! Big Brother! Little brother would be a more apt title!

The media once again is making a meal out of nothing.It is pity the public will never stop joining their band-wag-on
What was said in BB is what me,my friends,and loads of people use as a joke in our everyday lives - what a shame!!!!!

My entire office has boycotted CBB as we feel that C4 and the production company are benefitting too much from the publicity and failing to act to protect someone from abuse. Why not join us?
Doesn't really affect me though as I have not watched it either. Like that we have the power to vote with our remotes though.
(Also now boycotting questions on answers)

Its a shame we can't have a 'fly on the wall' camera in the channel 4 boardoom or 'The Goody entourage's office' so we can watch their reactions as it all falls apart around them.

I never watch Big Brother.
I find it utterly objectionable on so many levels.
I am not in the least surprised that it has come to this.
What does surprise me is that one of the housemates
is alleged to have said that Jade Goody "was masterminding
the abuse". Instigator, or possibly ringleader I could accept,
but MASTERMIND?!! I ask you!

I don't think they will boycott it, it has so many fans. The point it comes down to is how much money it's making. It all comes down to money...
