Bad news people!!! Celebrity Big Brother is to make a comeback in January 2009.

You may have though that the antics of Jade Goody and Co would have spelled the end for the reality TV show, but Channel 4 aren’t going to let it go that easily.

‘We never said that Celebrity Big Brother would be gone forever,’ said a Channel 4 source to The Sun.­

‘We wanted to give it a ‘time out’ –

a resting period after all the friction and chaos of the Shilpa and Jade saga.’

A spokeswoman for Channel 4 said ‘no final decision’ has been made.

The ‘normal’ version of the show kicks off on June the 5th, for all the up to date gossip on the new series click here!
