I bet it will finish some day in May, and BB13 will begin a day later.

Thus - completely ruining the hype for the proper series once again, and sharing the same house as it etc

This is a joke.

C5 can actually **** off and die, they're doing this so they can say oh look CBB dominated in the ratings again, and BB flopped, it ****ing will do when it's not hyped.

Run out of celebs? did you watch CBB9 they had natasha giggs!...Haha

Exactly.
Do you know why BB12 failed? Because it followed CBB8 and people got use to the idea of celebrities and couldn't embrace the civilians, plus it was a matter of overkill.

BB12 would of done reasonably well had it of been a stand alone series.

And now they're not even giving BB13 a chance, to see if it can work by itself - because they're going to rely on the over rated Celebrity bollocks to pump up hype, when infact it'll destroy any chance Big Brother has of being a success.

Is it so much to ask, to have a few teasers, a new eye, dozens of house pictures to get us all wet, and rumours starting from May to June - to get us all excited and then start the new series on it's own launch night, with it's own identity, like we had back in the day?

Big Brother is becoming a spin off to Celebrity Big Brother.

BB12 failed because there was only one good housemate in the entire series

Cbb > bb

[Kizzy]

I dont even class them as similar, CBB and BB have a compleatly different dynamic. I much prefer BB to CBB, although on a sadistic level i enjoy the humiliation aspect of watching zelebs do anything for airtime ... hehehe

If this goes ahead then it's conclusive proof that C5 have absolutely no idea what they're doing. If they think people are stupid enough to forget that there was a CBB back in January and that as such they won't think it's overkill, then they're just idiotic.

This is one way to ensure that the regular Big Brother is definitely axed, and maybe that's their intention. Not only that though, but I'm not entirely sure another CBB four months after the last one will do that well either...could be disastrous for the entire brand.

Not a clue. Not a ****ing clue.

Have they just bought it for a limited time so they're trying to milk the most out of it in a short space?

[Scotty07]

This is awful news. I thought if there was going to be an extra CBB, it would be after BB not before? So CBB will get the brand new house again?

[Kizzy]

This is C5! your lucky the new 'house' isn't a room at the holiday inn

I assume you meant to say whet our appetite.

Personally I'm not assed about them pushing CBB over BB because it's all the same to me nowadays. I don't have the same passion for it.
My main problem is with so many series in such a short space of time. If this happens then by the time we get to August we'll have had 5 or so series of BB within 12 months.
If BB didn't die in 2010 it's most certainly dead this year.

[GypsyGoth]

I can't wait for Lindsay Lohan to be a rumoured housemate, that's one of my favourite parts of every CBB.

Never even thought of that possibility. Please don't let it be that same ****ing BB11 Kitchen to CBB9 Bathroom yet again.
