Glad it's ending sooner rather than later tbh, though it pisses me off that this series has been run into the ground so much that it's given me that opinion.

[T*]

YASS i go on holiday two days before :love: :love:

[T*]

wait it's on my mums bday :worry:

[LukeB]

two weeks tomorrow?

[Niamh.]

Why a Thursday? why not the weekend?

[Pete.]

Mess to the max

[Pete.]

Does this mean significant changes to the CBB house if they've been given a month between them? :think:

[Calderyon]

Sign of the end of Civilian BB?

Even as horrible as this has been, i still would have liked them to honor the 72 day margin and stick to their plans.

[Pete.]

Sign of the end of Civilian BB?
I wouldn't be surprised if putting all these ex-housemates in was because it was the final series

[Will.]

The day before I go holiday, brilliant, its not even that short compared to other CH5 series.

Channel 5 have officially confirmed that Big Brother will come to an end on Thursday 16th July at 9pm on Channel 5. This means that Big Brother will end on Day 66, making it the second shortest series to air on Channel 5, and the second shortest series ever – with Big Brother 1-4 and 12 all being the shortest overall at 64 days.

The final begins at 9pm on Channel 5 with a live show lasting an hour and 45 minutes, where the winner of Big Brother will be announced.

The final is then followed by the last edition of Big Brother’s Bit on the Side airing at 10:45 until 11:55pm. This series looks to have been cut back by a week – with the final of Big Brother being Episode 66, but 72 episodes scheduled overall.

Channel 5 are yet to confirm when the summer edition of Celebrity Big Brother will begin, as there is likely to be a larger gap between the two series.

Meanwhile, Big Brother continues tonight at 10pm with the latest highlights show.

The article I wrote in case anyone wants to read.

[Calderyon]

^ But still the shortest one. That tells you something.

Nope, the second shortest. BB1-4 and BB12 are the shortest at 64 days.

Another boring 6 way eviction finale then... :sleep:

[Calderyon]

I was wrong, BB12 was shorter at 64 days. And also series 1 to 4 were also the same length.

But still the fact that it´s cut length means that they have mostly or completely lost their faith in CIV BB.

[Pete.]

Another boring 6 way eviction finale then... :sleep:
With 6th and 5th place leaving and being evicted at the same time yawn

[Will.]

Another boring 6 way eviction finale then... :sleep:


could be 5 because theres 2 evictions left, and they normally do an extra surprise one and one is normally double.

[LukeB]

it's going to be strange it finishing in July.

[Lostie!]

6 is too many for a final anyway, I don't think they should ever have more than 4. :idc:

[Headie]

Welp not this series only being a week longer than Charley's entire stay during BB8

[Will.]

omg lol it is exactly 1 month shorter than BB15 which ended on the 15th August.

[Pete.]

omg lol it is exactly 1 month shorter than BB15 which ended on the 15th August.
It did start later though

[Pete.]

Welp not this series only being a week longer than Charley's entire stay during BB8
So technically Charley won BB8 :clap1:

[reece(:]

Messsss, glad its not being dragged out though

[arista]

Why a Thursday? why not the weekend?


Maybe as Celebrity Big Brother
starts right after it?

[Will.]

It did start later though

yeah obvs, kind of weird it will be over on the 15th

[Calderyon]

omg lol it is exactly 1 month shorter than BB15 which ended on the 15th August.

You mean it ends month before BB15 ended.

[Will.]

Maybe as Celebrity Big Brother
starts right after it?

doubt it would start straight after, early August is realistic.

[Will.]

You mean it ends month before BB15 ended.

yes.

[jackc1806]

They made the decision before the ratings started to improve... It'll be back in June next year, May launch flopped

[Pete.]

It starts in August I think

[Pete.]

They made the decision before the ratings started to improve... It'll be back in June next year, May launch flopped
Yep

[Jarrod]

No word on CBB yet, but I suspect it'll be the end of July or start of August.

[arista]

It starts in August I think

If you are sure

[Jason.]

That makes BB16 66 days long.

2 days longer than BB1-4, 12 and 2 days shorter than BB14.

[Ashley.]

Another boring 6 way eviction finale then... :sleep:

7-way if there's no double eviction. :joker:

[Will.]

Im guessing Thursday 6th August launch. (3 week gap)

with finale on Friday 4th September.

[Jason.]

Im guessing Wednesday 5th August launch. (3 week gap)

with finale on Friday 4th September.

I said this yesterday. :suspect:

[Will.]

I said this yesterday. :suspect:

did you?

[JamesBond]

How long before Aisleyne blows the entire Timebomb house?

Go on Ash have another drink.

[Pete.]

7-way if there's no double eviction. :joker:
Oh you can be sure that there will be

[Jason.]

did you?

I've said it many times. We've even had discussions about it?

:suspect:

[Ashley.]

Oh you can be sure that there will be

Depends who's up for eviction. They don't want to put their foot in it and lose their control. :hehe:

[Jason.]

I wonder if they'll ever do a May launch again.
I hope they do. But they did it too early this year. 12th May was way too early. That's the earliest launch we've ever had. I think two weeks later would've been better.

A May Launch should be after 20th May.
BB16 should've launched on 26th May, TBH.

[Pete.]

Depends who's up for eviction. They don't want to put their foot in it and lose their control. :hehe:
Like they lost Winston :fan:

[lewis111]

Ugh I'm missing the final, by one day. Can everyone just record it and watch it on the Friday for me so I still feel the atmosphere

[Babayaro.]

I really don't understand this. Surely they can just extend it by one day and make the final on a Friday. It just looks messy

[Will.]

I've said it many times. We've even had discussions about it?

:suspect:

yeah, couldn't remember what exacts date you said!

[Jason.]

I must say it's going to be weird to not have BB run through the summer holidays (After 20th July).

BB16 has got to be one of the messiest, if not the messiest series ever. Even BB15 was more organized than this shambles of a series.

[Chilltown]

Seems abnormally short.

[Denver]

Maybe CBB will get the extra days?

[MB.]

Seems abnormally short.

Well it's only two days shorter than BB14 and people seemed to think that was a good length

(personally, I'd usually prefer 70+ days but the sooner this series finishes, the better)

[Will.]

BBSPY have said that CBB is launching mid August.

[Jarrod]

BBSPY have said that CBB is launching mid August.

Just to say this hasn't been mentioned by C5 etc.
