Would prefer this to 5 weeks tbh, but it will inevitably be extended

[Firewire]

24 days is ideal

[Morgan.]

I feel it will go really quickly, and if they're doing an all stars I'd like it a little longer.

[Epic.]

Here for Bear getting evicted 1st on Day 4 because of this length

[reece(:]

24 days of Frenchy, Big Mac and Tiff :love:

I laughed at a couple of points in that:

- Viewed as the original and best reality show (vs competitors) with loyal followers who tune in year after year.

- Even after all these years, Big Brother is still fresh

Anyway, I'm not too fussed as to how long it runs for. I'm still not sure if I'll watch if it's 'Gold Stars vs New Stars' - it depends entirely on the cast.

Wait is all stars in January? I though it was in the summer to mark la 20th series

[Jake.]

Good. 30+ is far too long, keep it short

January is meant to be half all stars and half new celebs and then the summer one is meant to be a full blown all stars.

[Maru]

No less than 30 is ideal for me, but not sure it matters these days.

[Maxxie.]

January seems to be full on all stats by the looks of things like the reports that came out today.

So the Jan one will have all of the crappy annoying ones and Summer will have some decent people I guess. Bear will obviously be in one but I'd rather Jan as it'd be shorter.

[Glenn-C]

If anyone from the January series gets into the Summer one too I'll riot. Put the likes of Bear (if they really have to), Katie H and Austin in the January one, and save the big names (Tiff, Frenchy, Luisa) for Summer

It has been revealed that the January series of Celebrity Big Brother will be one week shorter than usual, lasting 24 days instead of the previous 30.

The information comes from a Sky Media guide, posted by Channel 5's sales department offering sponsorship deals: https://www.skymedia.co.uk/opportunities/celebrity-big-brother/

I'm glad they've gone back to 3 weeks if this is true.

[LukeB]

Is there a chance they could add on days if they it's a ratings success?

[Jason.]

27 days max like CBB13 if it is ^

30+ is too much imo. But no I hope they don't, especially given they cut BB17 short despite being successful (compared to BB15/16 anyway).

[Maru]

I liked a flat month tbf for classic CBB... but if they produce anything close to what they did last season, then 24 is more than ample.
