I really hope that BB9 launches around the same time that BB7 did, early-mid may!

I think this may be a possibility for 4 reasons!

1. BB8 Launch sucked, maybe producers think it was too late in the summer!

2. FNP launches early this year, BB runs normally at the same time. Not the exact same time, but BB is normally on at some stage while FNP is on

3. Wikipedia state an "early summer launch". Early summer is May, June is mid summer.

4. BB9 USA is 11 weeks long- bringing us up to the last week of April. Perfect timing IMO to launch a new UK series!!!

The only thing thats making me think otherwise is Matts comment a few weeks ago saying that housemates must be 18+ on or after June 1st!

Techincally, the start of summer is the start of June and I don't think the time of year has anything to do with a crap launch night lol

I'd actually prefer a June launch this year Up to Aug 30th

wikipedia says 'Big Brother returns for a 9th series, most likely in June 2008'

I want a June launch because the excitement for it will be huge

[Sam!]

Whatever, May or June I'll miss the launch.....again. Sky Plus time.....again. Damn holiday lol. Happened in BB6, BB8 and now BB9. Was on my birthday last year (June 1st) yey lol. Then again for like two/three weeks I'll miss more in August. Allwell, can't be helped, would rather go on holiday obviously.

but if it starts earlier it finishes erlier the we have to wait longer for cbb or whatever it will b next year

[Sam!]

Good point! But I would like a Mid May launch and then finishes around 5-6th August.So that would be about 11 weeks then.
I think im going on holiday on August 8th or something, thats why Lol

Last years May 30th launch was a little too late, it should be around the 24th. I'd like them to go back to Thursday launches, I didn't like the Wednesday launch for CBB5 and BB9.

Last years launch was quite late. I always imagine BB as a spring/summer thing so I think a late April/early May launch would be ideal.

[Captain.Remy]

Late may before my exams, I will be revising in a better state of mind lool

I'd like them to bring back Friday launches.

I know it was great having it launch on a Friday because most people didn't have school/work the next day and there was always a big spread on it in the weekend papers. I always used to watch live feed until like 3 in the morning.

[Tom]

CBB4 launched on a Thursday because I remember I was sat in English on the Friday morning bitching about how Michael Barrymore wouldn't move off the red carpet. With a Friday launch you don't really get the opportunity to talk about it like that and thats how Channel 4 see it.
