Can't wait.


The twist for the Big Brother 11 launch night has been confirmed by Channel 4.

Earlier today, DS revealed that the reality show would be returning for its final summer run on Wednesday, June 8 at 9pm.


In a press release further information has been revealed about the opening episode of the series, which backs up a report in the Daily Star claiming that 100 contestants will compete on the launch night for the right to become an official housemate.

"In a twist to the usual format there will be more hopefuls than the house can hold," reads the press release.


"In front of the cameras and the baying crowd each of the hopefuls will find out their fate. Will Big Brother select them to spend a summer in front of the cameras or will they have to head home with their bag still packed?"


It concludes: "The new Housemates will be selected one by one and allowed into the Big Brother house to begin what could be the most exciting and unpredictable few weeks of their lives. Watch those first awkward moments unfold as they get to know each other and await the start of Big Brother's games."

Ooooo, i wonder if the public get a chance to select, or will they just select the usual oddballs they want in?

The OH is DREADING it.....ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Mine too DiDs ... still, apparently there is the odd football game on over the summer that he'll want to watch - so he will get his own back on me

Finally we have a date

Yayyyyyy..... Can't wait

Wednesday's the 9th    

I'm not feeling it at all yet.

Do we have the end date yet?.......booked holiday and dont want to get too excited if I will be away for the final......

Yay, I'm looking forward to it.

WOT-THE-HECK ???!!!
Why did i think it was thurs 3rd June??? I took holidays on that date too

Actually, the Star didn't get it fully correct. They said that the 100 contestants would take part in a task to gain entry. In fact, it appears that all that's going to happen is that the final selection announcements will be made live.

From the Guardian:

"The wannabe housemates will find out live, in front of the launch night crowd outside the Big Brother studio in Elstree, north west London, from presenter Davina McCall whether they have been selected to take part in the final series. Those not selected will be sent home, according to Channel 4."

Yipee cant wait at last its been a long time waiting

So they'll still pick the freaks and weirdos they want rather than letting the public chose who we'd like in....

I refuse to let it take over my summer....
