From Wikipedia. Don't think it has any pages about the German edition in the English language, but it was on the generic Big Brother page.
thanks!
You're welcome.

Seems a bit weird to run it for 365 days consecutively.
hope they dont get the idear of doing that in the british big brothers to come!

lol OK

i think 13 weeks is a perfect length, 14 at a stretch to make it exactly 100 days.

What is it with people using that bloody site as confim. That site just goes and writes stories which people put on DSBB.

Sorry to go off on one, just getting sick of seeing that site linked everywhere.

big brother must have a big twist up there sleve to expect the viewers to stay tuned as they would do in the first few weeks - as there ratings towards the end last year dropped

It is.

They need to be careful with twists this year. Whilst I love a good twist, I quickly grew tired of the HND. And we need more secret missions.

15 weeks was already rumoured for BB6, so it won't happen. Besides, 13 weeks in BB7 was too much for me, so sorry. Even though lots happened, you would eventually forget what happened in each week and each housemate.

Hey, BBUK Sit says 43 days now, so they think it will start on Wednesday 16th May. I hope not.

The only reason BB7 started on a Thursday not a Friday was not because of CBB4. but because of the ratings, and wanting to see whether it would do better with a highlights show on Friday, which got 5.7 million viewers.

If it starts on 25th, and lasts for 10 weeks, it will end on 3rd August.
