It's just occurred to me, do you think Channel 4 will bring forward the launch of Big Brother 9 due to the US Writers Strike? They're bound to run out of imports sooner or later...

[Arneldo]

It may effect it slighly, but the chnaces are it might just return to it's old late-May time-slot.

[Jack]

I doubt it. But you never know.

[Matt]

Hmm... nevermind. It was just one of my random thoughts.

[Captain.Remy]

That's not so stupid actually because BBUSA will start in february and maybe BB Australia will start earlier too so I won't be surprised if BBUK starts a little bit earlier, just like 1 or 2 weeks before.

[Redmond]

Maybe but not too much earlier, I still reckon it will launch in May but maybe early May instead.

[natjake2504]

I think they will wait to see how this one goes!!!!!
Am i right in saying the auditions have been done earlier this time - you may be onto something matt

[MarkWaldorf]

I thought about that. But most of C4's schedule is British programming so it probably wouldn't affect it that much. I hope so though!

[Spike]

I don't think C4 really relies too much on American imports, so I can’t see it affecting the start date of BB9.

i dont think it will change it much maby a week or 2

[Ruth*Star]

I don't see it changing much, maybe by a week or so.
