Big Brother: Launch Night Bets

Well, Big Brother is finally here. Live from the house at 9pm on Channel 4 tonight, we’ll finally get introduced to this year’s housemates.

As usual, Big Brother is expected to be a highlight for bookies as millions of us place a bet on anything from who’s going to win, to who has the first kiss. We have taken a look at lots of these betting opportunities in these previous posts:

Big Brother 9 Betting Odds Released

With most of the betting opportunities you will need to wait a while to yield any return on your bet, most in fact may onlyfinish after the final of Big Brother. So I thought as it’s launch night, that I’d look at those things you could place a bet on which are specific to tonight’s Big Brother.

By the end of the launch night of Big Brother, you will know whether you have some returns from the bets you placed.

I guess the best place to start is with Davina, as she will be the first thing we see on Big Brother show. This year there isn’t a bet on the colour of her dress, but for you Davina fans, there is a bet available from Paddy Power on what will be the first thing she will say. The best odds are as follows:

I love it - 3/1
Now then - 4/1
The wait is over - 6/1
Ladies and Gentlemen - 8/1
We’re back - 8/1
Are you ready? - 10/1
I’m so excited - 10-1
The time as come - 10/1
Let’s get started - 14/1
You decide - 16/1
Bigger and Better - 20/1
Where to begin? - 20/1
Controversy - 25/1
Cancel your holidays - 33/1
Game plan - 33/1
Hold on to your hats - 40/1
I’m not pregnant - 50/1

If you think you know which of these statements she will say first in tonights show, then you can place a bet. First check the latest Big Brother Odds from the table below; then click on the statement, and you’ll be taken to the betting slip. Easy!

You can also place a bet on the gender of the 1st housemate to enter the house. Paddy Power are offering 8/11 on them being female, evens on being male there’s also 50/1 on the first entrant being an animal!

One of the most important things for the production company at Big Brother is the ratings, how many viewers they have watching the show. Paddy Power are offering odds on this too. Take a look at the table at the bottom of the page to see the best odds for this special Big Brother bet.
