The final CBB is almost upon us

Kick off time is January 3rd as confirmed by Davina on Paul O'Grady show

Rumored to be going in so far but take these with a pinch of salt until confirmed:

If you dont like spoilers this is going to be a very boring post.

Don't like the sound of those you'd think they would have found better being the last one

Well this is going to be the last one, so it's needs to be good!

It would be nice if they actually managed to find some actual celebrities this year.

Mr. C of The Shamen, Keisha Buchanan of Sugababes fame and Sven Goran Eriksson would be good!

Remember the ones I mentioned are only rumoured, we have not been told officially who is going in just yet

Hopefully they will surprise us on launch night with a really good cast for the final CBB

On a side note audition dates for the final summer series have been confirmed

My mate Jamie is a cameraman for BB and is working on CBB this year too... he has been working at the studios until gone 2am all this week and last... must be dummy running it with people like they do on the real BB.

Boy George prohibited from going on CBB, due to some legal technicalities

Shame, think he would have been a good coup for the final series

Definitely!

Hope we're all ready for what will hopefully be a great send-off...it's a first for CBB; the first time the logo has completely been redesigned (whereas normally the previous summer series' logo was kept and the star added in the middle of it).

Simon Whitlock is doing a LOT better than I imagined he would against Phil Taylor in the World Championship Final, so I think I'm gonna have to catch the launch on 4OD...sowwy!

I quickly tune in and see SisQo perfoming Thong Song as he walks in?!?!?! Wow!

Sisqo is God.

Baldwin just got *beep* rumbled, hahahahahahahaha.

That was really funny!

Great line-up...but the best bit, as DCB stated, was when Heidi Fleiss entered, and said to Steven Baldwin "I've seen you before!"

Well here we go then, my opinions on what is actually a really good lineup for once (well they are looking to finish on a high!):

Stephen could easily find himself the Daddy of the House...will be interesting to watch for me

Nicola will be kept in there literally for the men to goggle at...any guesses what the "T" stands for in her name?

Alex, let's face it - he's going to not last long in there, regardless of how well he does. Very unpopular for obvious reasons, his only ticket to staying for a while is proving he has no beef with fellow housemate Dane. Still, I can see past the media hype; he could yet be a good housemate...

Stephanie won't be as popular as some of the others due to her age...but if she's seen as Mummy of the house then you never know, she could still be there in four weeks time at the Final!

Lady Sovereign will easily be the one to watch for me! Will surely be one of the more active housemates, and also one of the more outspoken too. Her only weakness will be just how many fans she actually has outside the House. Hope she stays for a while!

SisQo should win this on his entry performance alone! But in all seriousness, he'll still fare well I reckon. Remembering the biggest gameplan to work in Big Brother is forming allies in the House, if he manages to do that he could easily still be there for the Final...

Dane was the first housemate we knew would be going in...so in the whole Dane v Alex media fight, he'll have THAT advantage at the very least. The rest is up to him though - he seems a decent bloke at very worst!

Heidi won't last long. Another unpopular housemate, she's my pick to be the first evictee; while she could very easily get on well with others in the House, she last night didn't really come across as someone who was going to be largely interesting. Up to her to prove us wrong!

Jonas will have a lot of fans. Simple as. His behaviour in the House will therefore determine how long he stays for. I myself could see him go far...but totally dependent on the relationships he makes with his fellow housemates. Will be very interesting to watch for sure...

Katia could be the show's dark horse. Didn't really come across as a popular character from the crowd reaction but don't forget she's a young attractive 21 year-old, and could nab a fair few male fans at least! I would be foolish to predict she'd go early...but I wouldn't be surprised either!

Vinnie was immediately installed as bookies' favourite to win the show...but don't forget that's only because of how famous he is. We've seen a lot of celebs enter that cursed House and have the public turn on them! So let's see how he fares in there first before I make any sort of judgement on his chances!

Ooh thanks for that Davey...very interesting

A few things with what you have said there Divvy... you havent made one single prediction whatsoever even though you seemed to have good intentions to do so.. "So let's see how he fares in there first before I make any sort of judgement" "I would be foolish to predict she'd go early...but I wouldn't be surprised either!" and so on... (ignoring Heidi and Sisqo).

Also that really is another rubbish line up... barring Vinnie and Beacham (and I wouldnt have known her if she wasnt in Corrie) I had previously not heard of any of them. (Yeah Alex and Dane, they are both utter prats who make it annoying to walk into a newsagents but they shouldnt be counted as celebrities just because they are going out with Price. Same goes with Ronnie Woods girl as well.)

Vinnie to win and also to have a good go at putting these so called Celebs into their place.

God I really do sound like KB!

I'll make a better bash at predictions later on...after the first highlights show

Well I wasnt going to go that far but I shall see if you can redeem yourself later on!

I do think there should be a law which defines when someone goes from becoming a person too a celebrity so we can actually get some good line ups for these shows. I'll even be the judge if thats what Gordon Brown wants.
