Channel 5 has released more Celebrity Big Brother scheduling details, with the first confirmed eviction set to take place on Friday 26th August.

Unlike recent series on Channel 4, there will only be one eviction show, airing for an hour at 9.00pm. It will see host Brian Dowling announce the results of the public vote, before he interviews the first person to leave.

Highlights shows – also an hour long – keep a relatively solid schedule, starting at 10.00pm nightly between the Sunday 21st and Thursday 25th. The Saturday 20th episode goes out at 9.15pm.

Spin-off show Bit On The Side airs at 11.00pm each night (except Saturday, when it begins at 10.15pm). However, it changes channels, airing on Channel 5 on the 22nd, 25th and 26th, and on 5* all other nights.

Meanwhile, it appears even more likely that the live feed has been axed, as there are still no live feed slots on either Channel 5 or 5*. The broadcaster remains tight-lipped on the situation.

The series kicks off with a ninety-minute launch show on Thursday 18th at 9.00pm. Another live show – likely to feature a twist – follows the next day at 9.00pm.

At least it's airing after watershed

But Bots is so late

[ram513]

The eviction show is only an hour, so that's the highlights and the eviction, how on earth can they fit both into one show!?! :|

BBBOTS on 5*

The short highlights on that day will be a bit **** considering we have no LF I bet **** will go down on Thursdays as well and we get to see barely any on Friday night.

This. Also, I shocked that BBOTS is on everyday, it might be a bit late for lots of people though which could cause a dent in the ratings :/

omg im getting that excited feeling now

[Doogle]

Highlights @ 9 and Bots @ 10 makes more sense to me

[CharlieO]

At least it means its not aiming it at children.

So glad there is no break in the evictions.

This will mean its LIVE again!

I'm sure i saw in a tv magazine that highlights was 9pm and BOTS was 11pm :/ maybe im thinking wrong but that seems better timings to me

[Callum]

10pm is great, always thought 9pm was too early for the highlights shows.

They could have some more highlights in that BB bit on the side the night before to help

Happy with that. Hopefully the evictions will be live this time and the housemates not leaving the house like half an hour before the eviction was aired on C4, they had us fooled.

no live feed

Ah well, no 5* in Ireland so will have to watch BBBOTS the next day on Demand5.

Good to see its on C5 on launch night though.
