This television special does not pass the general notability guideline and is not deserving of its own article. There is already some information at List of Big Brother (UK) shows. KingOfTheMedia (talk) 14:56, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep It is a long established standard that any television programme that airs on a national network like Channel 4 is de-facto notable. MickMacNee (talk) 16:11, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * This is a television special episode of the 2010 series of Big Brother. It is not a stand-alone TV programme. KingOfTheMedia (talk) 16:38, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, as you've Afd'd it a day after it aired, all I can offer you right now as evidence of its independent notability is that it was considered notable enough in of itself to be recommended viewing by The Times and The Guardian, and that on the overnights it was watched by 1.342 million people. I presume you aren't expecting a full page special in Newsweek, but I really don't know what you would consider GNG type coverage for a television special.

 * In which case, the article should be deleted. KingOfTheMedia (talk) 18:04, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Rubbish. At worst, your argument is a case for merging. Deleting, i.e. effectively pretending that the programme never even existed, is just nonsense. MickMacNee (talk) 19:22, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * There is already enough information at List of Big Brother (UK) shows; there is nothing in this article that is worth merging. KingOfTheMedia (talk) 19:42, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Hardly. What little it does contain is misleading tosh frankly. Pretending the show had never happened would actualy be preferrable than directing people to that dubious list article. MickMacNee (talk) 19:59, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Then fix it. KingOfTheMedia (talk) 23:45, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Merge to Big Brother (UK) or List of Big Brother (UK) shows or maybe Big Brother 2010 (UK). I think there should be some mention of it though maybe not as detailed as it is here. Anemone  Projectors  18:12, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. This documentary isn't worth its own page, it is just very mundane TV. Anything worth keeping can be taken to the relevant BB page. Szzuk (talk) 19:52, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I was going to say keep, till I realized it was the UK version. Here in the US, we can usually rustle up two sources for a TV episode, but after a (very) small amount of checking, I couldn't find two for this show.  So, redirect. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 03:18, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
