Why is BB final NOT Live?

[Cristina]

well i live close to BB studious and i ve heard the fireworks 10 minutes before Sophie was announced the winner on Live TV. I know its like this all the time (previous finals as well).

But WHY, anyone know the reason there is a 10-15 min delay?

yeah, all the eviction nights as well for some reason

Convenience is the real reason I guess.

If say it takes slightly longer to set up for the interview at the end, or say it takes a while for someone to leave the house, etc.

They've got a time limit they have to stick to, so a slight delay gives time to edit out stuff that's dragging.

Also if anything ****s up they can cover it up too. Almost every live show on television has a minor delay.
