Have you been living under a rock or are you just like 8 years old!

Its your own fault youve only heard of Rylan!

Expose yourself to celebrity culture and you may not be so disapointed in future

seriously

I've heard of Steps, not Claire. I've heard of EastEnders, not Kathy. And I'm 17, but saying that...I've known most of the other celebs in previous series, so...

Can't say I did to be honest. I liked the twist but it was executed terribly. Bring two housemates onto the stage, go through 5 minutes of pointless chatter, sit through an ad break then repeat again for the next two hours. It was awful.

I would have preferred it if they either brought all the housemates in as normal then at the end of the show ask Rylan and Frankie to send 6 housemates to the basement or just saved this basement twist for tomorrow or later in the series.

It was good, but a bit poorly carried out

[Cherie]

It was fine,it is live TV and they have to time slot, looking forward to the series.

[SSL2012]

It dragged for 30mins too long. But I think the twist is great, super casting by production and I reckon it will be a fab series. Will hopefully have a higher launch then the last series giving it a higher series average.

Yeah I liked it. At least we didn't get any camp dancing at the start, thank ***** for that, let's hope they ditch it for the summer too.

[Me. I Am Salman]

The reason why there was dancing last time was because it was a Vegas themed house.

[Jake.]

I'm more excited for what is to come, I reckon the personalities this year could be epic

[Munchkins]

I didn't watch it :/

Best Launch Night In Years!

[Brother Leon]

Good twist idea. Poorly executed and dragged too far. Very Sub par housemates. Only one or two possible stars.

Did we not have dancing on CBB9's launch?

Oh okay, fair enough. Was still cringey regardless of the theme though. I like camp but that was a step too far.

[Rob!]

The twist was good I thought. It'll set some of them off in the right directions, Speidi in particular are clearly not happy.
We'll see how it goes. There is sadly signs of a showmance starting but hopefully there will be enough going on elsewhere so that it doesn't take too much away from the series.

[Josiah.]

Did anybody notice that Claire is the second person from Steps to enter the CBB house?

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

I really enjoyed the launch show

[thesheriff443]

held together with blue tack thats how it looked,to many breaks,
p*ss poor line up.

[AnnieK]

Thought the launch was too dragged out....could have been done in much less time but I am always a little disappointed with the launch......good twist though

Very poorly executed.

And Brian Dowling is still awful and always will be.

[HBB1508]

Went on so long I fell asleep!!

[starry]

And why have a couple in as one contestant, stupid..always is.

[Mac Hiavellian]

The basement twist was better than having another hidden mic twist like all the other Channel 5 CBBs. Line-up has some good characters, coulda done with just 1 or 2 more recogniseable faces like some of the names we've all read about

[Lostie!]

It was decent, but a little anti-climatic. I like the cast, but the constant ads ruined the atmosphere, it got ridiculous.
