Hopefully it can stay rounded up to 1.6.

Hopefully as that would keep it with 12,13 and 15. BB15s was 1.55m exactly.

Hoping as the last week has been slightly up and around 1.1-1.2m it will mean a week average of around 1.6m.

Annihilation week should fare well too.

Well people online seem to be really disgusted with the fact we have no control and the fact we are not getting ANY updates on ANYTHING throught the day.

I'm not sure it will fare well, especially if the bigger characters go, as much as some people don't like the likes of Hughie, Jayne, Jason and Andy, them going will be awful, especially if we are left with Alex, Sam, Ryan, Lateysha etc...

Once again to compare Big Brother and Love Island's official ratings:

(Love Island rating is in brackets with the winner bolded)

Monday- 1.45m (1.66m)
Tuesday- 1.55m (1.66m)
Weds- 1.77m (1.54m)
Thurs- 1.55m (1.66m)
Friday- 1.34m (1.63m)
Saturday- 1.39m (N/A)
Sunday- 1.47m (1.60m)

Result: Love Island beats Big Brother every night except on Wednesday plus there is no Love Island episode on a Saturday.

[Rob!]

Ignoring Love Island, wow at that 1.77.

[Jake.]

C5 (exc. +1)
Big Brother: 1.08m (5.2%

[Rob!]

Love island final 1.2m excl +1. Channel 5 will be delighted it's out the way now.

[*mazedsalv**]

Big Brother: 1.2m

A climb for BB even against LI which got 1.34m with +1. It will be at around 1.3m tonight i reckon, but will drop and struggle if we lose faves.... i HATE this week.

I can really see myself not watching after this week if my favourites all go. Such a STUPID twist.

It's just incredible how C5 somehow manage to **** up three series in a row?

Yep. It's horrific. I knew your no fan of Hughie, but I think it's a shambles that he's likely to have been gone already.

Whoever goes this way, it's wrong. I honestly don't know what C5 were thinking, they must have been on crystal meth when they thought this up.

[Cal.]

I don't really think they've ****ed this series up. It's a good series and it's better shorter than too long.

I feel BB17 peaked way too soon imo. I loved the first 2-3 weeks, but after Natalie went I noticed a drop in quality and I'm not sure if it's because Natalie leaving or just the series in general hasn't been as good ever since.

I think maybe the two houses thing was actually good in hindsight and they should've kept it for the rest of the series? idk.

Or it's probably just my dying interest in BB in general that's making me view this series less favourably.

[TomC]

I don't think it's been bad since Natalie went, in fact I think it's been pretty good.

This week is just such a blight on what was a fantastic series. I don't even care if it was shortened to 7 weeks, but there were so many better ways to thin the numbers.

I'm still hoping will get to vote an annihilated HM back in on Friday.

C5 (exc. +1)
Big Brother: Annihilation: 1.24m (6.5%)

That's the highest excl +1 since the first highlight show. That could be around 1.4m incl +1. Love Island being gone seems to have helped BB a lot.

Since Friday it's done pretty well:

Saturday- 1.12m *highest in 3 years
Sunday- ~1m *against Euro Final
Monday- 1.2m
Tuesday- ~1.3-1.4m

[Samm]

..and its ending in less then two weeks

[armand.kay]

Lol why are they ending it so early.

[Jake.]

Good stuff

[Cal.]

It's annoying cos CBB18 will cost them more money and will only be getting 1.7/1.8 a night.

[*mazedsalv**]

Big Brother: 1.4m (7.2%) including +1

Marco's eviction got 1.35m so I'm guessing it beat that. Highest since the first HL show.

That 1.4m is higher than most episodes of BB12, the 2nd half of BB13, BB15 and BB16. 1.4m was the average for BB14.

[Samm]

Ironic that the ratings are at a peak when they're ending it soon

Last night was the first time that it didn't face LI or a Euro match in the 9pm slot. May be why.

Which is why they were stupid to shorten the series. I knew ratings would be up when those 2 shows ended.

[Will.]

1.3M excluding +1.

[*mazedsalv**]

C5 (exc. +1)
Big Brother: Annihilation: 1.28m (7.6%)

That's great for 10pm slot, it will surely be around 1.4m incl +1 (for 2nd time a in a row) and well over a 8% share which will be good. Excl +1 wise it was 40k up on the night before. But thing is +1 doesn't tend to add a lot at 11pm, but there was a lot of hype that maybe it got well over 100k on +1.
