Big Brother 9 has an offical transmission launch date of Sunday 1st June.
And will last just 12 weeks this year.
Finishing Sunday 24th August.
For the first time ever the weekly Evictions will take place on a Sunday and NOT a Friday.
The Highlight shows will also air at 10pm every night until 10:40
On Sundays the timings will remain the same. With just 10 minutes of highlights, Davina talking in studio to friends and family the announcement and eviction. A break. Then followed by slightly Longer Eviction Interview
1 New Spin off show will also accompany series 9 on e4 in the old 'Big Mouth Slot,' which is rumoured to be very much like 'Big Mouth' but with some new features, and a new regular host.
Little Brother however has been axed and will not be returning.
------------------------------------------
Very Big Brother Australia, if true. Sunday's for evictions and the launch. I can't really see that happening. I highly doubt BBLB will be axed. It's been with Big Brother for so long and everybody knows it. It's stupid if they do axe it, they can easily find a host just as good or even better than Dermot.
So, Sunday 1st June anyone? - I think, until any official announcement otherwise, NO!

Launch- The only thing I'd be almost certain about is the late launch. It seems to be moved further back each year. I don't think it'll get any earlier. A sunday laaunch though? They usually seem to pick a Wedensday or a Thursday. Dont think Sunday launches and Evictions would work. They're trying to boost ratings, not drag them down even further. I'd say expect a 28th/29th May launch date
Spin offs- Not much point axing a show just to bring it back with a new name and some slight changes. Why spend money on a whole new show? If any spin-off is to get the axe, it certainly wouldn't be BBLB.
Highlights- 10 mins of highlights that will usually fill an hours space? How are they going to fill that in. They usually show 10 mins on an eviction just covering the live news from the house! I don't see the point in wasting time interveiwing families when they could squeeze another 5 - 10 mins of highlights in with such short space in the scedule already. doubt they'd continually show highlights for 40 mins. Thats cutting 20 mins of highlights a week. I think the most they've ever cut of was 20 mins during BB6 for highlight shows. Not too sure though.
Time slot- I couldn't see a permenant 10pm time slot being used. Perhaps 9.30 at the latest. The 9pm time slots pulled in slightly more ratings than the 10pm time slots during BB8.
