Email from Channel 4

Hi All,

I decided to email channel 4 yesterday and see if they would release any forthcoming info about BB11, they of course didn't but didn't shoot down that it could launch in May so who knows.

Doesn't BGT end a week later this year? Can't see them launching second week of June if the promotional shoots are already in the can.

agreed, a may launch is very likely i believe, should see the eye next week is that is the case!

"Heavily advertise" I dont think they have ever said that before, but lets not expect anything big. It is C4 after all.

that's what i thought, i've had ones saying to keep an eye on the site but not that, maybe they are planning something big?

Yes, they can't just keep pushing back their own schedules because of Cowell (and X Factor is waiting at the other end of summer).

blimey i didn't realise that then yes may launch would be more likely they gonna have tough year this year ratings wise then what with Britain's got talent, the apprentice. think as a previous poster said they gonna have to advertise heavily and promote it really well.:)
