If this series is promoted well it should do well.

The cast will definitely draw in the viewers if the rumours are accurate.

[crazycolaist]

1.8mil if the advertising is terrible.
2.6m if they put up billboards around. Depending on the celebrities really,

[Jason.]

Thought I'd give this a bump as we now have a launch date, and the series starts in under two weeks.

[Cal.]

I'm guessing 1.8-2.3 people x

[MB.]

Not .3 of a person

(but it's nice to know Verne Troyer'll still be tuning in)

Some statistics if anyone is interested...

[Oaker]

I say 2.7-2.8M on Launch since they are actually promoting it (from what I have heard)

[mrmattybeck1]

2m I reckon

[mrmattybeck1]

Live feed is back partly so hopefully that should be good

[Babayaro.]

2.2 million i'm going with

[mrmattybeck1]

Let's hope we don't get another ratings crisis like bbuk

There was no crisis. If there was a "crisis", the show would have been pulled altogether. The show did badly due to the early start and pointless twists.

[Jake.]

exactly, it only lost 150k, averaging 1.37 overall but thats not the official average, Channel 5 haven't released it.


Theres been good promo on TV for the new series, seen quite adverts.

[Jason.]

Launch = 2.6m
Series Average = 1.9m

[Will.]

Im guessing

2.9 official launch
and 2.2 offical average

[Jason.]

I haven't seen much promo for this series, but then again. I haven't watched much TV in the last week soo

yeah, whilst watching some shows on MTV theres been a lot, at least every 30 mins. Not sure about magazine/radio as haven't looked/listened recently.

[Jason.]

The reason why I said 1.9m is because I noticed a pattern in the all the summer CBB's with the exception of CBB8, that the summer CBB usually rates 0.4m-0.6m higher than the civilian series it follows. With BB16 averaging around 1.4m and presuming the same pattern occurs, CBB16 should average around 1.9m/2.0m.

Not to mention, the fact that it's going to be on throughout roughly the whole of September may hinder the ratings as school and work may get in the way. And the late start.
