Just been on Sky Digital EPG and noticed BB is on at 10:30pm next Monday and it is on for 55 minutes hope it isn't going to be on at 10:30pm every night. I think they will loose some viewers. Not me Though of course!
I wonder if it is because it's a bank holiday. Friday Saturday and Sunday it is on at Nine which is normal for those 3 shows. Anyone shed any light

What do others think???

It's just a one off (I hope)

ER is on at 9.30pm due to an hour and a half programme called Real George VI (I think) on at 8pm.

Not much to worry about.

I hope they keep it at a set time tho like 10pm as it gets annoying having to keep checking the listings to see what time a show is on.

It's on at 10 again on tuesday, but 9 on wednesday due to desperate housewives, back to 10 on thursday, then 9 & 10 on friday

Hopefully it sticks to 10 from the second week...

I'm not sure 50 - 60 minutes of BB highlights is a good thing. It was alright last year, when some days needed it as so much happened, but what if the first weeks a bit slow and we're left with "Simon, Sarah and David are asleep...".

The first week's schedule is a bit of a mess but it should settle down from week 2.

Yeah 55 - 60 minutes is great if there is loads happening like BB5.
But sometimes week 1 can be slow everyone being over nice to each other etc. Keep it to around 35 minutes and more if needed. The geezer who narrates for BB (the voice over) starts to cheese me off after a while Fred and Sarah have been awake for 23 minutes and 6 seconds they are now lying on the sofa...........Yes BB we can see that please don't patronise us or give un meaningless annonying audio descriptions, I actually prefer less of it and just when it is needed or funny, or how about 2 or 3 different voiceover people.

BB please take note!

But.....the things he comes out with are so annoying and pointlesss sometimes.......it's 3am everyone is in bed except Joe who is making a cup of tea????
I guess I noticed it more in BB4 when it was dull. There did seem to be less voiceover in BB5 as so much happened and the picture just spoke for there self.

I did feel last year 50 minutes a day was a bit much - half an hour worked well.

I also felt at 50 minutes the show was long enough to deal with any unexpected events without the need to extend it - but C4 extended it to 65 minutes at the drop of a hat, when really it wasn't neccessary.

What I'd most like is for the shows to be more up to date, covering the later part of yesterday and earlier today - then ending on an event such as the nominations being announced, task concluded etc, just a few hours after it happened in the house!

Hopefully we'll get proper eviction shows this year - not just highlights with phone numbers and the eviction result tagged on.

It's always great to see friends and family pleading for you to keep their housemate in when in reality they know they haven't got a chance of staying - and it's an aspect of the show that shouldn't be relegated to BBLB!

Yeah I fell the eviction shows are very rushed particually the 2nd show where the housemate gets evicted there never seems enough time for the interview, it seems to be left for the last 10 minutes of the show all that wait and it's over just like that the eviction interview can quite often be the best part of BB get them out just after 10pm tthen there's longer for the interview.
I also think 1 show instead of 2 would be better on a Friday, I hate waiting half an hour for the next show to start, but I don't think that'll change because the longer they draw it out the more votes and of course the more cash they get.
