It is obviously a con because Summer is during July & August and Trick or Treat is related to Halloween which is in October. Also I have seen that eye before and I know it is fake.


Is that a joke?

I'll presume it's not for the purposes of saying that is it is the second series of the non-halloween related Derren Brown show which ran at the same time last year

The image is stored on imageshack and not on Channel 4's website. Thus I'd take it as being just another mock for now.

I do think though, that there's only so much you can do with it. They've insisted it be based on the same template each time, so that kinda limits what they can do.

Anyway.

The whole programme is rubbish and I shan't be watching. Just thought I'd reiterate that as we come into Garbage TV Season again.

That doesn't mean it's fake. Maybe whoever's been spreading it around didn't want to suck up all of C4's bandwidth.

Tickets are now available on Applause Store for Thursday 5th June - we have our launch date!

After weeks of speculation, we can now say near-certainly that BB9 will be beginning in June, just as the tabloids reported.

The site has updated its June listings to include Big Brother, and here’s what it says:

''It’s summer - which can mean only one thing. Big Brother is back for a ninth series. After Davina McCall announces the arrival of the new residents, and the doors close, Big Brother takes control 24/7, cutting all contact from the outside world in the most famous reality show.

The new housemates will not only be at Big Brother’s mercy, but each other’s, as they complete tasks, bitch, backstab and try to get on, winning friends and enemies along the way.

But the power to decide who stays and who goes sits firmly with those at home. While the unexpected becomes the norm, there’s one factor that remains the same and that is eviction night. Who stays and who goes is down to the viewer.

E4 will continue to be the home to Big Brother’s Little Brother, Big Brother’s Big Mouth and Diary Room Uncut as well as being the place to catch the live streaming and all the day-to-day drama. While online, fans can keep up-to-date with breaking news and sneaky peeks at the latest footage from inside the house.''

So from this we know several things: firstly, the format will not change - it’ll be the same, classic viewer-oriented show; secondly, it will launch in June, as various insiders and tabloids have suggested; and thirdly, BBLB and BBBM will both be on E4 this year

Looking at this in more detail, the fact that BBBM will be on E4 does suggest a more fixed 10pm weeknight slot will feature this series, which should please most fans. BBBM is likely to take less of a prominent role with the lack of a household name, airing at around 11pm after the highlights. Guest presenters, which are most likely, didn’t really set the world alight in BB8, so this makes sense.

Also, BBLB is staying on E4. Again, this was inevitable, due to the Channel 4 daytime schedule not really having much space for the show. Many fans enjoyed it at 6pm nightly on Channel 4, but its 7.30pm slot has been its most common home so it’s no surprise to predict it retaining this slot for BB9.

Finally, it’s expected the exact start date (either the first Thursday or Friday in June) will be announced midway through this month, coinciding with a press release and (hopefully) the long-awaited eye!

Hopefully at this time we will learn the answers to some questions like those surrounding the future of text voting on the show after it was axed for BB8 following the fraud scams, as well as the annual red button live streaming queries and also the future of other things such as Big Brother’s Big Brain and Big Brother: On The Couch (yeah, remember them?)

11:53 UPDATE: Channel 4 updated their press site yesterday, confirming the long-reported June start for the upcoming season.
