What are you expecting from the 2 launch nights?
Im excited forcthe thursday and froday launches simply cos I can see record viewing figures for five.

I also expect 12 to go in Thursday and then another 12 connected to them all the next night.

[DigitalSid]

They won't break any records, maybe for normal BB on C5 (not that that should be hard), but not for C5 in general or the show, CBB8 got 5.1 million in the overnights.

2 million

[*mazedsalv**]

It won't beat the record, CBB8 launch which got 5.1m. But it can certainly break a BB on Ch5 record, as I think the highest was BB13 launch (2.7m).

Wait what? why is there 2 launches?

[ruiphillips]

I'm confused about this. Does splitting the launch night in two parts mean the house will be filled with half of the housemates on Thursday and then the rest moving in on Friday?

no idea

[Tom4784]

My guess is that the second night will be devoted to a twist, I doubt they'd split up the HMs' introduction over two nights.

[ruiphillips]

This could end up being messy or quite entertaining.

Yeah my first thought there was males 1 night then females or vice versa but then I remembered the 'secret' so maybe a secret house or something

[Marsh.]

Yeah, fingers crossed it's just one night to introduce all of the housemates and then the second night to introduce all the "Secrets and Lies" stuff.

Unless of course the twist is 2 houses or another split of some kind.

[Roy Mars III]

2.7 million

[Samm]

I am going to go with 3.3 million maybe more

[g17m]

Yeah! 1 hour 30 mins Thursday 13th and 1 hour 30 mins Friday 14th plus BOTS and live from the house. No idea why or what may happen but it'll be interesting to see with the Secrets and Lies aspect to be revealed to us.

yep

Thursday + friday
but we don't know why

[Petershaw1984]

It could be simply a certain amount enter and then the next day tgeir secrets etc enter.

Bb have kinda done this before remember with the whole female launch noght in bb8 I think it was the blokes entered at a later date

[ThisIsNickkk]

As I mentioned in one of the other threads, I highly doubt they will stuff half the housemates in one night and the other half in the next. That would just be a pain in the ass for everyone involved having two pointless shows like that, so there must be a big twist to warrant two live shows...

Maybe there'll be two houses, maybe the second launch may be twist night - who knows, but they're clearly planning something.

I would hope so!

Given the title of the show it has to involve a secret and a lie. They will want the themes of the series to be introduced right at the beginning in the highest rated episode so viewers can be intrigued and stick with it.

[Mickster2009]

I think there will be two houses but the two houses will be linked. For example one of the males in house one will be the ex of a female in house two. I know that sounds simple but you get what I mean. Then the houses play tricks etc (she leaves her pants in house two but he cant say anything cause then his secret is then revealed) or perhaps tasks one on one for money for prize funds (assuming they are individual prize funds).

Then at a later date the houses join at a later date and they have to keep their secrets secret.

Hope yous understand what I mean lol

[thesheriff443]

lets hope its a different twist.
we have had
all female house on opening night 8
house mates that are not actually housemates 10
another house 7
housemates leaving and coming back 5/7
