The sooner the better in my opinion.

However, as others have said, and something I never even thought of; the election.
Surely that pretty much rules that week out, and possibly even the beginning of the following week, as David or Ed will have to go cap in hand to Nicola Sturgeon :P

Anyway, "early-May" to me is the first half of the month; so I could see it being Thursday 14th May, as they'll probably do another split-launch

I've heard it's starting later than the 6th, as there is construction delay issues at the house. So I think the third week of May sounds plausible.
Plus, I've always thought the 6th May Launch was a bad idea. Not only will it be competing with BGT, but the general election will tamper the ratings of the first highlights show.
So, the first few days of the show won't rate very well.
6th sounds very very early too, I know they want a month break between CBB, but even a 2 or 3 week break would do, in between both series. Plus, if it launches on 6th, that means it will finish on 17th July.

I think it'll launch on 13-15th May. I have a feeling this year will be a Wednesday launch, like BB8 or CBB15.

So it could work out like this:

BB16 LAUNCH - WEDNESDAY 13TH MAY 2015
BB16 FINAL - FRIDAY 24TH JULY 2015
DURATION = 73 DAYS

3 WEEK BREAK

CBB16 LAUNCH - THURSDAY 13TH AUGUST 2015
CBB16 FINAL - FRIDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER 2015
DURATION = 30 DAYS

CBB16 FINAL - FRIDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER 2015

Agree with this. Those are the most realistic dates, especially the start date of BB16, since 13th-15th May would not clash with the elections or BGT's live shows week.

BB13 launching on a Tuesday.

Anything before Wednesday is too early in the week, and gives them time for an eviction on the Friday of the same week, which is too early. BB13 made that mistake when they had that Day 3 eviction.

Irrelevant.
But, I really liked CBB7's Sunday launch, so I wouldn't mind CBB17 launching on Sunday 3rd January 2016, as the dates are the same.

CBB17 launching on a Sunday would be great for the ratings.

Yes. And it's winter too, so more people would likely stay at home. Also, more likely people don't go back to work the following week, and people won't have school, so staying up late isn't an issue.

They could promote over Christmas season.

This is either very much unrelated or very much related.
