its just fantastic!!!!!


cannot wait for the house advert!!!!!!!!

and the countdown adverts

[Joelston]

CBB2 had radio adverts, I remember.


And don't hold out for a house advert. They clearly arne't going down the usual advert route. I like how it's different and unpredictable.

well still my eyes are glued to E4

[KKBL]

im glad there heavaily promoting it.

[Loukas]

yeah it should be a good opening nigt with a lot of viewers

[Captain.Remy]

Yes that's what I thought too, they need viewers for the launch !

[Tom]

I think that one is the best advert, and its been on the Channel 4 website for quite a while.

With the heavy promotion on radio and on E4 itself, I think they could benefit a lot by advertising it on ITV1 which they do with some of their shows like Desperate Housewives.

[MR.K!]

i still think they should try putting the eye on a few billboards to raise some eyebrows like bb7 or advertise bbch on other netwoks like sky

[Rory]

Wasn't there a radio ad a few years back that just said "Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother Big Brother" etc.?

[Matt08]

Does anyone have any audio clips of these BB:Ch radio adverts. I think all of this advertising could pay off and prove to be a bigger hit than Celebrity Big Brother is, although i'd like to see BB:CH broadcast on C4 rather than E4.

[Xander]

I never even knew way before they used to advertise on the radio, i dont listen to radio that much so i probably wont hear it

BB:CH will not be as popular as CBB for the simple fact it is on E4. It could be a hit by E4's standards though.

With the Digital Switchover not far away, many people could have got a Freeview, Sky or Virgin Media box this Christmas or have recently bought one so this could mean an increase in viewers. Also, BB fans may have switched to digital especially to watch BB:CH.

80% of UK homes recieve digital telivision so E4 could get some big ratings from BBCH

[Captain.Remy]

E4 will get a great success with BB CH for sure !

Only in theory. Don't hold your breath for ratings to go above 1.5m although for BBCH to get 600,000+ is still a big achievement for E4. In theory, BBCH should get 80% of the ratings that Channel 4 gets, and for this purpose lets say BB on C4 averages at 4m. That means that BBCH should average at 3.2m, but that is highly unlikely.

As many people that watch Big Brother on C4 just don't watch E4 whether 80% of homes have E4 or not. Its the same as BBC1 and BBC2. BBC1 is the most watched channel in the UK but BBC2 is only marginally more popular than C4, and neither channel are *that* popular. Some people only watch network main channels- BBC1, ITV1, C4, five, Sky One etc and there is no reason to why it is.

It would be ironic if E4 beat C4 when BBCH is on.

On another note, not everyone who has Sky has E4 because it is part of a subscription package on Sky and is not free. Some people (like me) only have Sky for sports or films or whatever.

I'd have thought that Sky would make E4 free now that Freeview can offer it for free. Sky's useless really, they rip off their customers and provide a poor service. They wanted £65 for a callout charge last week and my parents have payed for Sky for about 10 years! Shame there's no Virgin Media in my area. :cloud:

"Freesat from Sky offers a larger number of channels than Freeview, but some channels broadcast on Freeview are subscription-only on Sky, most notably Channel 4 offshoots E4 and More4. This appears to be due to a contract which does not expire until 2008 and which has caused much confusion and resentment amongst viewers [1]. However, Channel 4 appears to be committed to eventually making all of its channels free-to-air with Film4 being available on Freeview since July 2006 [2]."

Its just not free because of a contract but will be free from next year.
