-After the lowest ratings ever at the time for BB16, 1.4m, BB17 was made the shortest series ever at 50 days
-However after an improvement in that series with it rating 1.6m again, BB18 was increased to 54 days
But because BB18 is now the lowest rated series ever were probably looking at about 42 days lol

It got increased to 54 days so that it would not confilict with the Love Island finale, which was Day 50 in the Big Brother house, I read somewhere.
I also read somewhere that BB18 could have lasted less than 50 days.
