It was because Celebrity X Factor and Love Island started near enough the same time as BB7. Big Brother didn't want to loose it's viewers to them basically.

BB6 began on 27th May
BB7 started on 18th May

I thought the rumoured start date on this forum was Friday 25th May.
There is a countdown thread here, and we are also speculating on this...

BB8= 11th May 2007

[xPrInCeSs-MaYx]

[*M*a*TT*H*ew*]

I hope BB8 starts on Friday 25th May, so that I can have 1 week without school to get my first impressions of the housemates.

I know. BB always changes the week it starts per year. If you exclude BB1, BB2, BB3 and BB4 all started on the penultimate week (25th, 24th and 23rd respectively). People thought BB5 would start on 21st (not 22nd because 2004 was a leap year), but it started in the last week of May, and so did BB6 (28th and 27th respectively).
But now, it has gone back to the penultimate week, and a Thursday.

If it's 12 weeks it'll start on 18 May, 11 weeks means a 25 May start. 12 is the most likely, I think.

It better not effing start on 18th May, thats my prom!

[BigSister]

that happened with BB4 for me Chris but it was "night" before BB4 started hehe

www.uknova.com It's a torrent site. Every episode of Big Brother is posted there while the series is on air (plus occasional reposts, such as the recent complete run of eFourum from 2004). Membership is always full but if you try now and again, you will eventually get in. I rarely watch BB as it happens. I prefer to d/l episodes and watch them later. Which probably how I ended up with all this *points to big pile of BB DVDs*

I keep all of mine on an external hard drive. Only about 100 bucks (Uh...50 quid?) for 250 GB, I save all of my videos to it and watch it from there.

Anway, I think it really depends on how long the span of the series is planned to be.

It says on Teletext that Dermot will be hosting BBLB 'from June'....................
