Legendary host's of Big Brother shows past and present Davina and Dermot O'Leary will also provide their own personal take on their years living with Big Brother.

BIG BROTHER 11 LONGEST EVER
Dailystar

If that's true, then I think it is silly to make it longer. It was getting too long anyway. It needs making shorter how it used to be, otherwise people lose interest.

They never learn. One reason why the show is ending I guess. It's been too long for probably 3 years or so now yet they still decide to add a bit more on each time!

Is there going to be an e-mail going out to all bbfans members encouraging them to join us for one last hurrah nearer the time?

Yeh they're not wise making it longer, I don't reckon.

I'll see what I can do.

and having it on a Wednesday will seriously hamper the
BB party for those having to go to work the next day (not me )

Wouldn't have been so bad if it was this wednesday as it's half term

I am going to have to get my finger out and get one of these digital tellies (or whatever it is we need nowadays) before next Wed!

BB11: The first twist - NOTW

80-90 potential HMs
12-14 going in

Creative director Phil Edgar-Jones said there might be some "familiar faces" in the house on launch night

But since he added that no ex-HMs will be going in, it could be a cryptic remark about the faces of ex HMs being hidden in the wallpaper.
