THE show was in meltdown last night after production staff threatened to walk out.Staff and producers were locked in talks after two senior backroom staff announced they were quitting makers Endemol.
And, sources claimed, others will follow them. Senior executives held urgent meetings in a bid to try to stop the mutinying crew from leaving the troubled Channel 4 show.
One source claimed: “Morale amongst the team is at rock bottom – they feel strangled and handcuffed by Channel 4.
“They have started to panic over some of the things going on in the BB house.
“Added to this, some of those in the house have been a complete nightmare to deal with.”
BB10 has already been rocked by a series of walk-outs by housemates and the lowest ratings in the show’s history.
And there has been controversy about the treatment of contestants after evicted Sree Dasari, 25, was admitted to hospital after cutting his wrists while watching the show.
Sree was well enough to attend filming of Big Brother’s Big Mouth, but our source said: “This incident is more serious than Channel 4 is passing it off as.”
