'Brian Belo' has been trending on Facebook as quite a few newspapers have been reporting it, so I think the officials should definitely raise the ratings by a few hundred thousand. Unfortunately I'm not sure whether him leaving will actually cause the ratings to suffer in the long term.

with Brian trending first on Twitter and all of it I think it will at least get 1.2 for tonights

1.25 (7.9%)

Wow :joker:

That's excl +1! Will be 1.3 without it. Wow.

1.35 inc +1, highest since the launch

lmao producers must be laughing, everyone slagging the show off but the rating are improving.


People who say they won't watch because of Helen are clearly lying lmao

legends clearly aren't going anywhere

I thought people saying wow were taking the piss although I keep forgetting just how low this series ratings have been :laugh:

They will definitely keep in the legends for another week then!

Christ almighty.

What has become of the show when we're all excited by 1.35 :laugh:

They'd better not keep Helen another week, that would just lower the tone of the show even further but if they absolutely insist they'd better not keep Marc immune again. :nono:

I know right.
That rating for BB14/BB15, and we'd all be saying "R.I.P BB."

Watch in 2017, when we're all excited by 800k, compared to the 600k episode the night before.

:joker:

I thought people were being sarcastic there.

That's a good rating?!

yes for a highlight show anything above 1.3 is good.

celebrity Big Brother is fine, it is just the normal BB that is in jeopardy.

tonights will probably have a huge +1 being on at 9pm

So as an official were probably likely to see 1.5 or even 1.6 which is nice, I'm hoping Ashylene will also give ratings an increase or keep them on par however it seems bizarre she's entering without a live show, perhaps she's literally there until Friday like the other two legends?

With the ratings boost I could see the producers trying to stretch Helen/Nikki to stay in longer.

yeah everyones complaining about it saying there not going to watch but its getting good ratings.

should do well tonight

comprising of BB16 week 2 to this week (huge improvement), didnt realise it was so bad!

Week 2 of BB16:

Sunday - 900k
Monday - 800k
Tuesday - 999k
Wednesday - 970k
Thursday - 1.09 M
Friday - start of 4 in 4 out

Week 7 (this week)

Sunday - 1.2M
Monday - 1.15M
Tuesday - 1.2M
Wednesday - 1.35M

This week is currently averaging 1.23M

This week should average 1.55 in officials as thats what BB15 averaged with a 1.2 overnight average week

What they really need to do is remove Helen they would kind of redeem themselves for the win and the free pass.

Make a task to cause drama so when she goes to far they can remove her that will bring in the ratings then for a twist give the housemates the choice of if they want to keep Nikki as a main housemate and be eligible to win the show.

Cant believe I voted for Helen to win last year she needs putting in her place.

C'mon BB grow some balls and throw her out on her arse.

Nikki has been legendary again without even really doing anything lol shes just great to watch.

lol, I think this is the third time I've agreed with you today. But yeah, the ratings keep going up because of the nonstop drama and the controversy that the legends are bringing. And yet, people on the forums keep complaining about them and want them to leave. Its quite hilarious really. The legends have been the only good thing about this series.

I think there amazing in there, it's so entertaining!

BB16 is basically now The Nikki, Aisleyne, and Helen show featuring Marc.

Not every member of the viewing public posts on here. Tonight was my last night - I'll pop on & off to read comments in TIBB, that's about it. I stopped watching BBOTS last series - can't stand Rylan & Emma or the rowdy rent-a-crowd.
