We present BV CCD photometry of the variable star V9 in the globular cluster 47 Tuc. V, B, and (B – V) light curves are given. A colour-magnitude diagram based on four V and four B frames is given. V9's location on the diagram is considerably brighter and bluer than the edge of the red horizontal branch. Its radial velocity indicates that V9 is a member of the cluster.
