Not worth having it.

This is supposed to be Celebrity Big Brother 8 not a little blip before the main show starts.

Hardly worth having.

Why pay all that money for celebs when we have no chance to get to know them.

I wouldn't look into it too much. We all know how unreliable BBXtra is.

CBB2 wasn't for comic relief and lasted 10 days.

It should be 3 weeks IMO, a shorter series should get them some better name celebs.

Yeah and thats way to short.

What are you doing?.. This is not a contest on who can state the most CBB facts lol you even just said it should be 3 weeks.

I agree it should be longer anything less than 3 weeks is pointless.

I know was just saying. Personally I'm not interested in CBB this year so the length doesn't bother me, but the best length for CBB is 3 weeks.

They're only doing CBB first because it's quicker to organise and because they've paid loads for the rights.

Wasn't there a rumour that channel 5 were keeping the length flexible (possibly by two weeks) depending on it's success?? That would explain the 2/4 week difference of opinions.

Personally, I think 3 weeks is best. Short enough to get good celebs, long enough to get to know them.

It does. CBB is shorter, gets higher ratings and doesn't take as long to organise as BB so rather than wait till September and start with BB they're doing a quick CBB.

To me it just seems pointless, to only have a 2 week CBB series, we won't get to know people properly, ideally it should be a 3 week series....IMO

Any less than 3 weeks and the money spent on 'celebs' would be wasted.

CBB shouldn't happen this year, two 4 week length series next year should be done instead like this:

All of Jan: CBB
All of May/June/July: BB
All of October: CBB

Then reverting back to the regular schedule.

Thats overkill

There should not be 3 series in one year its just gonna kill it off before its even begun.

Big Brother needs to be an EVENT that people wait all year for.

Keeps it fresh and exciting.
