I think that is just the repeat. It will be on E4 straight after the main C4 show i think.

I thought last years launch was slightly rushed, but if they try and get 16 housemates into the house in such a tight show then I won't be happy.

I'm glad it's on a Thursday, but I'm hoping they stagger the housemates entrances over to the Friday too - maybe 8 in on Thursday and 8 in on Friday with a little twist too. Please C4, do not try and put 16 housemates into the house in that amount of time.”


Even allowing for the introduction and tour of 15 minutes........

HMs individual videos and entering the house - 3 minutes so...........16 x 3 = 48 minutes plus 15 minutes....still only 1hr and 3 minutes. Plenty of time.

And I really don`t think that the intro and tour will be as long as 15 minutes.

16 housemates, all single, attractive and up for it!

Some of you will be reaching for the bucket.”

God I hope not.

It was looking touch and go for a while there but at least its launching rather than not launching at all.

Who says each Housemates will go in one by one? They could easily do it like BB3, introduce the Housemates with videos in blocks, and then send them in as the boys and then the girls, or groups of four etc... They can do it however they want, they might try something new.

It takes ALOT longer than 3 minutes to show the HM video and then for them to enter. More around 5 minutes if not more.

We don't know for sure that there are 16 HMs - its rumour at the moment

I still think it will be a bit rushed though.

Looks to me like there will be two lots, one going in on Thursday and one on Friday.

That'd certainly be the most sensible approach, and probably one we'd all prefer.

Nawwwwwwwwwww..........nowhere near that long. It just seems longer than it actually is.

Anyway - we`ll soon find out.

I wouldn`t prefer it. I want them all in together for the opening night. I like watching the inter-actions. A second set going in the next night would be a total anti-climax IMHO.

There will be at least four advert breaks of 4 minutes each which cuts it even finer, plus delays when HMs faff around outside (aka Anthony and Barrymore). Its definitely cutting it fine but doable - just.

You believe they'll be 18 housemates?

Actually, I wouldn`t be surprised if it turned out to be less than 16 HMs.

Yeh, I think its important to remember that we dont know its 16. They did last year's in 1 hr 15 mins, so assuming nothing has changed (we have not been told anything has) then that is right.

OHHHHHHHH! I`ve only just noticed that the CBB HMs photos have disappeared from the top of the board. I`m getting really slow.

Unless they just sent one gender in on the first night. That might be interesting watching them speculate as to why there are no girls/boys.

Ha, not as slow as me. I thought "There's something missing at the top" but didn't twig until you said.

No I have no idea how mamy there will be - there might only be ten on the first night with others to enter later in the series. There may be 25, there may be 4. Its all speculation at the moment.

Hmmmmmmmmmm...............not really convinced. I`d still prefer them all to go in together. Watching it live would be a bit boring on the first night if we couldn`t speculate on who fancies who etc etc.
