I’m seeing the BB logo starting to be advertised on ITV so the launch can’t be too far away now. 👀 I’ve seen one article suggest a September 28/29 start date but that’s only based on last year’s launch. Hoping for a slightly longer series this time as the drama of last year could’ve easily continued for a couple more weeks.

Anyway very excited to see what they have planned for this year! Last year’s series was fantastic!!

Would be great to mark the occasion that they do classic tasks for the series

I would love to see the secret house and fake eviction brought back. They were iconic!

That as well as the box task that would be good to see again.

Hopefully this series is better than the last.

If its still a short season, hopefully less HMs as you just don't need 16 for such a short series - there was so much dead wood last year

If its short like previous years they need less in the final few days as it always feels far to rushed.

If the logos around now it’ll likely be the start of sept, which is all good with me as they usually have it before IAC starts so maybe is going to be 2 months!!

They confirmed a while ago that it's been extended by a week (taking it to 7 weeks) to celebrate the 25th anniversary!

I saw the trailer on TikTok and I'm excited for it to be back now for sure!

Another week will make a difference in a good way but ideally it would be 2 weeks longer.

I wonder if they’ll shift its run forward two weeks to accommodate (1) the extra week and (2) avoiding the final clashing with Children In Need like last year.

Really hoping that the house has had a shake up, and that the series can gain a bit of momentum this year.

Hyped to get stuck into the new series of this and Strictly over the Autumn/Winter months *.*

I was watching these earlier and to be fair most of them came across the same in the house as they did in these clips.
