The contract was last renewed after BB7, BB7 wasn't 13 weeks because of any contract but because channel 4 requested the extension at the last minute (hence all the silly twists that BB7 had).

Really? I'm sure Davina said on BB7 launch night that it was going to be 13 weeks.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

If its too long people will lose interest. I wont but other people will.

BB7 had some good twists, apart from bringing Nikki back. That was just desperation IMO

nope the contract before this one ended after bb6 and they renewed it for BB7 to BB11
I am right as usual :p

Last minute meaning after the series was planned, not after launch.

well thats obviously wrong because that would only take it up to series 10

No it wouldn't. The current (and final) contract started with BBCH not CBB5 ;).

make it up as you go along why dont you ;)

Nope, just got a good memory.

There have been two contracts since BB6 the first covered CBB4, BB7, CBB5 and BB8 and the second covered BBCH, BB9, CBB6, BB10, CBB7 and BB11.

(Really must grow up :D)

so we are going off your brain, ok then, thats hardly a source

Dude, give up yeah?

no never, just because you say you remember it like that, it doesnt mean your right

*Sigh* remember what?

you said you had a good memory, and thats how you know
obviously not if you cant remember a few posts ago

I mean what part do you want me to back up?

(Not that I need to)

tbh i dont care because this is just boring now
but if you want to, back it all up

so there have been two contracts since bb7, so my orginal statement is still correct minus the one contract part

You mean the part that was your main point, the part that you later posted an article about trying to be clever, the part we've just been debating about? And yep two contracts, starting and ending with the same series I remembered them starting and ending with and signed at the same times I recalled they were signed, talk about epic fail.

no the main part of my ordinal statement was that the contact states that all the series are 13 weeks long.
which you disagreed with, and which you are still yet to prove.

Sid is right. The last contract C4 signed was for BB9-BB11 and the celeb ones in between.

They signed the contract after BB7 aired.

lost for words?
yeah thought so
uber fail
