I'm glad CBB is more than two weeks, I didn't feel like that would've been enough. At least it won't be off our screens before BB12 launches.

Already a thread: http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/foru....php?p=4465168

First post updated with the show times.

Sorry just read it on DS & i thought the news had just came out today. If one of the mods wants to delete this thread, that would great.

Here's the bad news - the first half hours of both the final and the launch will clash with ITV's new Simon Cowell gameshow Red Or Black?

Good news:):D.

Seriously? That sucks! Red Or Black? will get about 12m. Hopefully all the viewers will tune in at 10pm for the rest of the show.
