Default Launch Date Confusion
I thought it started on Thursday 18th, why are some people saying that it launches on Wed 17th?

Could someone just confirm that it is infact the Thursday?

It was the 17th but then Channel 4 were bitter little petty bastards - so they're showing Twilight on the 17th to rival BB's launch so Channel 5 were all 'k then, 2 can play that game!'


So the launch was moved to the 18th as a big middle finger to Channel 4.

lol because C4 are showing Twilight they moved it back a night..its shocking.
think someone needs to tell C5 a little show like Xfactor will be also starting soon theres no point moving the show around trying to avoid clashes.the other stations got really hurt when BB was in its prime and want payback.

Channel 5 are actual legends for being so aware about moving it at the last minute to say '**** you' to channel 4 who clearly regret cancelling it and ruining it because of Jade and Shilpa in the first place.

Perfect time for Freeview users to re-tune
