In preliminary schedules, every episode (including Friday) of week 5 is on at 10pm for an hour. For the next two weeks we have Thursday evictions but Channel 5 confirmed they were the only 2, but then there's no sign of one at all the following week

My guess is that it's a week of backdoor evictions. But surely we still need a live show on the Friday for interviews?

yeh, backdoor evictions probably. Thats annoying.

They'll just do it on BBOTS.

Maybe the cost of producing a live show just isnt worth it anymore?

Got that one penciled in for Hannah and Deborah's evictions

I ~think~ Emma is only contracted to 8 live shows a series (7 evictions including the final and then the launch) so because this series is going to be a week longer than BB17 and a few weeks longer than CBB18/CBB19 - they're going to have to give her a week off.

Yeah, she's done exactly 8 live shows for the past 3 series... This is possible. But also weird.
