Yeah, its hardly a bad thing to let people know about it.

Th earlier they advertise it, the more people who will know about it, thus the more people who will watch.

I think we should be seeing a change come next week, when it hits the month to go mark I'd expect there to be a big marketing campaign with the Presenters and house to be unveiled, lets also not forget they are making use of utilising Social networking media for alot of there publicity this time. I'd expect some Facebook updates will arrive very soon. :)

Happy if they're doing it on purpose, I like the secrecy. Remember it's still 5 weeks of launch though!

Agreed.

I've not been able to get on TiBB much this week so everytime I do come on i've been expecting to see some massive news instead the forums is like http://www.radswiki.net/main/images/2/2f/Tumbleweed.gif

Even if they just give us a aerial pic, it'll get people excited and in the mood for BB again :bored:

theres 3 weeks to go till august right?

I didn't say they didn't need to know, just that they don't need to more than a month in advance. A few weeks is more than enough time.

But BB starts next month and noone knows its coming back lol.

Its on a new Channel now so they NEED to start the promo asap.

They haven't even got the office space in place yet, so I wouldn't hold your breath - and to be honest based on previos years it is still a little bit early for any actual news. Usually by now we'd only have a fake eye and fake houseplan in the Daily Star.

Also worth considering that the reason there is so little news is because there is so little interest in the media.

Well if theres so little interest in the media then even more reason to promote, promote, promote!!!

How else is anyone gonna know.

Considering Desmond owns Ok and The Daily Star i thought there would have been alot more ACTUAL news instead of all the rehashed crap about sex crazed housemates and love dens.

Maybe it'll start coming through next week.

Hopefully anyway! Makes my job harder without news coming in! haha

Rumours from DS;

No LF or saturday show :(

FAKE Josie is a reporter on BBLB

Is it so inconceivable her roving reporter job will be on oktv instead of bblb?

Hope this is all true exept the LF & no saturday show.

just looked on DS, the person you are referring to has no source apart from a "person that has connections with the show"

heard that one before...

:( that sucks.

I assume saturday will be merged with sunday like in BB8.
And no live feed. :(

She will have job , all of three minutes I suppose, like her tweet job.:devil:

The thing i wish and hope is true is Emma being the presenter. but Josie is a roving reported for BBLB so thats fake, also its pointless not having a saturday show. ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i want news now!

Spiffing

Since when has Desmond, OK and the Daily Star ever been associated with ACTUAL news?

Clearly ill informed guess work. Firstly C5 don't show movies on Saturday nights, they show back to back US crime dramas and will need the slot even more with BB taking slots in the week. And secondly Fiver was replaced by 5* back in March.

As for the rest - actually a fixed 10pm slot with streaming straight after (rather than waiting for HMs to go to bed) would work quite nicely, and I've said all along they should forget the spin-offs and concentrate solely on the main show, so using OK! TV for snippets of info instead would be a wise move - as is axing the low rated Saturday show, which largely just recapped the eviction anyway, so BB fans aren't expected to commit to the show every single night for four months. (So considering they're all good moves, I'm guessing this "source" is bollocks!)

Finally no live feed is one thing, but no website at all is completely unbelieveable. Up until it's latter years the Big Brother website was the most popular entertainment site in the UK - so cutting off that potential revenue stream entirely - well even Channel 5 aren't that stupid.

Im talking about Big Brother news :rolleyes:

Well since he owns Channel 5 now you would think he would publisize BB in OK and The Daily Star alot more then he is.

Believe it or not millions of people buy the Daily Star every day.

Oh and i hate it when people say that the Saturday show "Largley recaps the eviction anyway" so no point in watching. Thats complete horse sh!t the actual eviction only takes up 10 minutes of the episode

This had better not be true.

What a load of ****e.

Advertising costs money.

There's no need to advertise yet. What is someone going to do with the information? You don't need 6 weeks advance notification to watch a TV show. You need a week or two at most.

Advertising now would just waste money. People will just forget what it airs by next month.
