Default Launch date extended to 100 minutes but what could this mean?
Channel 4 have confirmed Big Brother is to premiere with a 100 minute launch show on Thursday 5th June at 9pm!

this could mean more housemates but also a big huge twist/task for opening night!

So the house divide could be true and visible from the start or it could be a live task or eviction etc

what do you think?

or maybe its to improve the launch so things can go a bit slower and therefore better .. it was getting a bit rushed in the past few years

Well apparently 16 are going in so that would explain the extended launch night cos usually they send 10-12 in first night. Correct me if im wrong lol.

How long was last years?
It probably won't be much, maybe a twist of some sort.

Thanks, all I reckon is that there will be more than 10/11 housemates, and thats why they added on an extra ten because it takes around 5 minutes per housemate to go through their vt, procession into house etc....

Really? I thought it was shorter than 90 minutes, I thought it was I hour and 15 minutes for some reason.
