Why everything changes in 10 Days time...

I think that May 30th is the start date; in fact, it's nearly the only day plausable, for these reasons:

Reason One) Someone found out that up to May 25th, there isn't an available time slot or something along those lines.

Reason Two) "Heat" printed a story claiming that it is 13 weeks and 2 days long. This means that if the final is to be a friday (August 31st from some sources), then the start will be on a Wednesday.

Reason Three) The lack of information at this point indicates a later start date-definately late May at best.

If we can firmly believe that Big Brother 8 will be begin May 30th 2007, then we can also believe that it will start 12 days later than last year's launch of May 18th.

Last year, information started coming in on the 2nd of may-16 days before the launch on the 18th. If history is to repeat itself, then we should get information 16 days (give or take a couple of days) before the launch, believed to be on the 30th.

Should this be true, the information regarding the eye, press pack, and even confirmation on the start date should reach us on the 14th of May.

This is in ten days time. Start counting down now...

Schedules can change you know. Just because programmes are listed like that now doesn't mean some shuffling around can't take place.

[Scarlett.]

they had kept them free for BB so obviously now its not begining on those days

[Scarlett.]

okay I will, but I wont get excited

[philmyer92]

so we are now counting down to the countdown to bb?

[Matt]

Good post dupin, I always thought May 30th was the most likely date.

[Redmond]

Thursday 24th May, from 8:30pm-12:00am it says TBC!
Same for Friday 25th from 9pm-12am.

Looks promising, they could fit a 90 minute launch show in there with still left over space for other programming.

[Scarlett.]

I hope so! those arent out of the window yet

[GiRTh]

Pure speculation,but I do think you're close. We usually get the eye placed subliminally in between ads for at least a week and a half before we even get the proper adverts. SO a start date of very late May does seem likely.

[Matt]

The fact there has been no official news so far makes me inclined to think that way.

[Redmond]

Plus isn't that awful show The Friday Night Project suppose to be returning on the 25th May? That would fit in with a BB Launch night quite nicely.

[Matt]

FNP isn't awful! And yes, I believe it's back on the 25th.

[Scarlett.]

:O I love the FNP
It may be shown to come in line with that but it is announced when the HMs are picked and house is coming close to being finished

[andybigbro]

i am soo excited

[Redmond]

May 24th and 25th between 9pm and 12am have still "To Be Confirmed" on the Channel 4 listings site. So you can't rule those dates off just yet.

[Kevin]

Sorry, i got my dates mixed up xD!

[dupin]

Ah-so the truth may be that it's WITHIN 10 days. I don't think it'll be any later either way.

[Matt]

There had better be something within the next 10 days or I will go bonkers.

[Redmond]

Also check out E4's listings on Thursday 24th May. Between 10pm-12am it is To Be Confirmed. Big Brother related programmes maybe before the launch on Friday. Didn't someone mention a new "Where Are They Now?" was being filmed?

That was me :P

I would of thought that would be on 2/3 days before the launch?

[Redmond]

Well I'm just trying piece things together really. There's also a TBC on Friday 25th May on E4 after 10pm, space for Big Brothers Big Mouth surely?

[DropsOfRainbow]
