I'm tempted to watch it now to see what the fuss was about.

Well at least it be better entertainment. Give me cats over wannabes.

I'm not surprised it wasn't a big ratings hit cause simply BB isn't a big show anymore. Simple as, it had it's day and is now the z list of reality shows. Sad after it was the A-list of reality shows for many years.

Actually from August BARB( uk ratings board) will be taking into consideration on demand figures

The low rating are down to lack of advertising.

Proves that Celebrity Big Brother is all that people are interested in when it comes to channel 5, hopefully they learn from this and make the new series less tacky during its run time will tell if they go back to basics and fix the editing word of mouth could spread.

They had the perfect Celebrity series with Julie Goodyear! I much prefer the normal series but I can't deny when it's moved to Channel 5 their celebrity series are decent but the main show verges on tedious at times.

CBB is amazing. i love it! I wouldn't mind if there were three of those a year instead of normal BB.

I prefer CBB to normal BB. I always have. It's just more fun.

No.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

3 CBB's a year?

That would suck.

If worst comes to worse and they ditch regular BB then they need to do one 10 week long CBB imo.

[Vanessa]

They need to advertise normal BB more. It pisses me off that they don't.

Yes, they could make two longer CBB a year.

There's no celebrity that would sign up for 10 weeks though, I think the longest C4 one was just one day longer than 4 weeks (most of them were 4 weeks towards the end). They could probably make it 5, 6 would be pushing it though to get them to agree to it.

I'd like January's CBB to be 4 weeks again but I shan't hope for it cause if they dare extend CBB this summer and cut BB back I'll cut someone.

[Tony1111]

The last CBB I disliked because of the cast but the ones before it were pretty good I personally think the year Julie was in provided the best entertainment in a CBB series ever. She was fantastic we still quote her around the house. "Ya should t'felt t'impact of that pie on ma face' nearly knocked me two front teeth out" "DON'T TALK ****E!"

Hopefully this years cast is good enough to provide those comedy gold moments and I can forgive the pesky edits. If any of them have the potentially to be as entertaining than the previous dullards then I am all for it.

Ouch for BB!! All I can say as a big fan. It will go sub 2m for sure tonight, but (less likely), could it build like BB1? Doubtful. Only positive is that it was highest rating of Ch5 since CBB final... but that says nothing.

That rating though is really embarrassingly bad. The only thing that will help is if it builds tonight, or if it stays around 2m, that it will not drop below 1.6m in the series, but it will.

[Videostar]

Not surprised, the opening show was low key, and the HM's are the worst ever.

It has the potential if the media still keep reporting on it as much as they are at the moment.

Luckily there are no articles in the sun, mirror, star etc about the disastrous ratings last night so fingers crossed they haven't cottoned on lol.

Plus Emma is amazing and im sorry her series should not be rating lower than Brians.

Agreed about the build. I hope a lot of people just didn't know or couldn't watch and it could build tonight. But when has that ever happened?

[*mazedsalv**]

Imagine if it timeshifts 1m when BARB officials come out.... we can hope and dream. I doubt it very much though.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Tonights not going to rate well.

Theres no buzz and even to me it doesn't feel like launch.

They messed up putting it over 2 nights.
