So the next series of BB is starting on 05 June 2012
This means this series will clash with the Olympics, which are taking place here in the UK. Would it not have made more sense to delay the start until after the Paralympics? If I recall, last years Big Brother series started later in the year.

BB3 clashed with the world cup but was the most succesful series ever.

If it was on in the Autumn again it would clash with Xfactor, strictly, and ratings would suffer. Now is the best time... Well mid-May was best but we've gone past that now.

It needs to avoid clashes with reality shows like The Apprentice & I'm a Celebrity.
Big Sports events are always a feature of summer. |

Are people honestly gonna sit and watch the olympics 24/7? BB is an hour out of the day.

I seem to recall BB3 starting off not as strong as people think, I think it started with around the high 4m and then ended up hitting the 6.5m+ (that may be because I think the WC was finished at that time). |

So will ratings dive as people watch the Olympics, killing off BB?

Most people couldn't give a ****** about The Olympics - other than London, and other cities that are up London's arse and trying to cash in on it.
Load of bollocks.

I'm going to watch the Olympics and Big Brother. The Olympics are a once in a lifetime event in the UK, not likely we'll see them again here. But I can't wait for BB, anyway, BB is on at 10pm, not like they will clash apart from the Ceremonies.

Some people have experienced the Olympics in London before, so not strictly a once-in-a-lifetime event. In fairness though, the way people are on here you'd think they expect people to be watching the Olympics 24/7. And IMO the vast majority of people outside London couldn't give a shít about the Olympics, the Euros yes, but not the Olympics. |

What a silly question. How are we meant to answer this? Will the ratings likely suffer from the Olympics? Likely but like I said before most people will dip in and out of the Olympics coverage, not dedicate a whole day to it. I don't get where you're going with this thread.

They should definitely have tried to launch it in May so it would be finished before the olympics, at least it's had a bit of a break now though after having 3 series in 4 1/2 months.

Not just the Olympics but Euro '12. Maybe they are trying to kill it off?

It might be. But they have timed the program for mostly 10pm slots? Maybe that will help.
