this is great, just as long as three things dont happen:

1) Luisa get's evicted (which leads me on to)
2) They keep on focusing on the ****ing love triangle
3) It doesn't shorten civilian Big Brother.

Agreed that the final should be on a Friday, much better.

4 more days!

I'd have loved it to run for another week but I'll settle for 4 days something is better than nothing

Great news.

[cheeky_monkey]

Great news.

Just hope the entertaining housemates are at the final otherwise it's 4 extra boring episodes. lol

It's great news either way.

I'm personally hoping summer CBB gets axed tbh and the main civilian series is extended by a week or two.

I'm really hoping the summer CBB gets cancelled, too & the civilian series gets extended, I much prefer the civilian BB to CBB if I'm honest.

The only problem is i'm sure we're going to be left with Ollie and Sam...that's going to drag so much. Then probably Dappy and Jim??

This, it will only be worthwhile if Luisa is still in

I agree I want Luisa to get to the final she's so entertaining and yesterday's episode was funny. lol

It'll be something that has been planned in advance and discussed thoroughly with the celebs beforehand, they wouldn't risk half of the celebs leaving because they have other jobs lined up after the original end date.

I'd assume their contracts either sate that the producers can change the finale date at their own discretion - or it states that they must leave +/- 7 days of the penned in finale date as broadcasting may change.

Someone like Janice Dickinson would be perfect.

If they have got another celeb in the line them they need to put the new celeb in either tonight or Friday. Otherwise an additional housemate is pointless.

Is this confirmed yet?
