You'd be surprised just how much that wee slot makes channel 4. After all that's what BB is all about now, it's nothing to do with the fans or providing good entertainment it's about capturing an audience on a false premise and generating revenue thereafter.

...yes. I don't watch the show but I get what you mean. It's weird, and I want to sleep as well, when I did watch it. Also I'd want to watch something at 12 or 11 or 10.

If you watched the series last year you would realise they did exactly the same then.

My husband and I are always commenting on that its ridiculous and the 10 o'clock show always starts about 3 mins past - we really are so sad that we notice things like this.

I'm not 'having a go at you', I'm just assuming you didn't watch last year (which was a better series) and it looks like I was right.

ITV do a similar thing from time to time, they'll run a film for over an hour without ad breaks, then throw in 3 in the following 30 minutes.
