No live feed for the third Friday either [Update: Now fourth Friday as well?]

'Confirmed: No ‪#BBUK‬ live feed on Friday 22nd June - although that night's main show is currently billed as just 'Big Brother''

https://twitter.com/bbspy/status/210372780066209794

Absolutely ****ing appalling.

UPDATE:

'Schedule has yet to be officially confirmed by Channel 5, but it appears there will be no ‪#BBUK‬ live feed on Friday 29th June'

[Ramsay]

****ing *****

[InOne]

****

[Ramsay]

they are actually so ****ing retarded

[Jack_]

They really are taking the piss. And they lied. One hundred percent categorically lied as they promised us live feed after every eviction.

This kind of 'we'll give you live feed when we feel like it' attitude is a complete joke.

[Roy Mars III]

:bored:

[*mazedsalv**]

Are they ****ing stupid?

[Black Dagger]

They are absolute ****ing twats.

[MTVN]

Going to wait until MrMarky confirms this I think

[Ramsay]

i dont get what they have to lose from ONE HOUR a week of live feed..ONE ****ING HOUR and they wont even give that to us..what a load of *****

[Jordan.]

Don't know why we still support this show sometimes.

[Jack_]

This really is one of the most incompetent and shoddy productions of a TV show that I've ever seen.

If a ****ing torch being paraded around the country can get a live feed, why can't a TV show which requires it as its fundamental element?

[iRyan]

They are ****ing *****

Especially since they ****ing said there would be an hour feed

[Me. I Am Salman]

This year's housemates are so promising as well :rolleyes:

[HBB1508]

I am sorry to say that with no live feed I am fast losing interest in BB on C5.

[Black Dagger]

This year's housemates are so promising as well :rolleyes:

I know... I bet Scott would have had a 100+ page quote thread like Ben Duncan as well, it's just stupid. :bored:

I'm pretty sure they can sort out a cheap free live-feed even if it was online, it's just moronic :idc:

[iRyan]

Watch them claim the 1 hr feed was only meant for CBB in August, of course

[bbfan1991]

Taking the piss:bored:.

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Absolutely agree with you Jack, it's madding that they won't give us LF.:devil:

[Jack_]

Watch them claim the 1 hr feed was only meant for CBB in August, of course

Oh they will. They absolutely will.

And then you watch them roll out more streaming for CBB than we're getting now. Won't be a coincidence at all... :whistle:

[Ramsay]

daaaaamn you CBB!!!!

[alex_front2]

I was furious at lack of live feed for BB10, BB12 and now. It's galling. However, lack of live feed C5 and Endemol's production favour. The less we see the more they can obviously manipulate shows and why would they change that?

What other 'poo in freezer' 'Tom leaves house' BB cover up will lack of live feed facilitate this year??! What narratives can they present to smear and discredit unfavoured HMs and boost their chosen favs?

[Maia]

:joker: Just told us they were bringing it back to shut us up and never had any intentions of bringing it back again.

I have no words.

[Locke.]

Think it's about time they scrapped live feed altogether to be honest :pipe:

[MTVN]

How do they actually know we're not getting it, by the sounds of it they haven't really sorted out their schedule for that night

[alex_front2]

:joker: Just told us they were bringing it back to shut us up and never had any intentions of bringing it back again.

I have no words.

This is what I find unacceptable. If they were ignorant of viewer demands then I'd be less irriated. But they are listening to demands, pretending to take on board, paying lipservice that they will change but actually ignoring and doing nothing.

Jamie East banging on about diversity and age range. When there's only 1 over 40.

Claiming to hate walkers but treating often better than evictees.

I am dreading the show tonight onwards as I suspect


Marcus Bently will revert to his newstyle bias commentary
We will be treated to loads of pointless 'Previously....' recaps - I remember a Previously recap lasted a whole episode.

[Jack_]

How do they actually know we're not getting it, by the sounds of it they haven't really sorted out their schedule for that night

As far as I understand, schedules for the following two weeks (up to the Friday) are confirmed on the Wednesday two weeks previous.

Which is today.

[armand.kay]

****ing imbeciles. Why cant they just do 24hr streaming online, via red button or on that **** channel '5*' THAT NOBODY ****ING WATCHES!!! The fact we were willing to settle for the 1hr A WEEK they PROMISED us is bad enough but for them to break that promise is just ****ing moronic. Words cannot describe the hate I have for every single bastard responsible for the ludicrous idea to scrap live feed. I have watched 13series of big brother and 8 series of cbb and never in my life have i wanted to switch of but because of the obvious disrespect they have for us hard core I may not even get to the 4th eviction before I switch off never to look back on BB again especially not the ****ty cbb.

[Ramsay]

everytime i come on this thread i just get angrier and angrier

[Jack_]

This means there'll now be no live feed until at least a month in. That's almost half way through the series.

Dear C5...

[armand.kay]

When I switched on the launch and saw the ****ing Vegas dances I should of known all hope for BB had been lost in there tackiness . :bored:. Ever since BB moved to c5 I have been defending c5 and telling people the show is still good but now I loath everything they have turned my once beloved show into.

[MTVN]

Hmm fair enough, just seemed from the "although that night's main show is currently billed as just 'Big Brother''" that they might no have finalised their schedule for that night yet

[Jack_]

Maybe, I could be wrong but I'm sure someone explained that's how it works on here once.

[Matt]

How do they actually know we're not getting it, by the sounds of it they haven't really sorted out their schedule for that night

Channel 5 has released the final schedules, but where Friday shows are normally billed as 'Big Brother: Live Eviction', Friday 22nd's is just billed as 'Big Brother' - although I would be highly surprised if it was not an eviction night

Also should be pointed out that the Friday 22nd show is at 9pm, with Bit On The Side at 10pm - so if it is an eviction there's no excuse for them not putting BOTS on at 11pm and seperating the two shows with live feed

[DigitalSid]

Either something's changed and they can't do it now, or they lied to us. I hope it's not the latter because that's lower than Channel 4.

[Patrick]

Don't know why we still support this show sometimes.

Thinking the same. I really am.

[iRyan]

It really doesn't make sense because Brian specifically said there would be an hour of live feed.

Is there some other way it could be shown? Like a red button or something? Or after BOTS? It just doesn't make sense why they would lie.

Nope. Channel 5 use their red button for dodgy casino and gambling games, far too important to them than to be decent people and provide us with Live Stream.

And after BOTS, is everyone's favourite - Super Casino.

[Ramsay]

they just dont want to give in to us they want to be channel 5 big brother they want to completely disregard everything that happened before it moved to channel 5 its so obvious..bunch of twats they are though

[Jack_]

They just want it to be a reality soap, that's all. They think providing us with one hour live feed as and when they feel like it will keep the hardcore fans happy.

Well I've got news for the incompetent wankers - no it ****ing won't.

[Jack_]

UPDATE:

Looks like it's going to be the same on the fourth Friday...

I have no words anymore to be honest. Just have run out of angry words to call them.

[Black Dagger]

I hope they drown in a river, useless wankers :bored:

[MTVN]

:laugh:

[Jack_]

There really isn't enough adjectives in existence to describe just how truly appalling their production and treatment of the fans is.

If this is true, there won't be any live feed until the fifth week at least - that's half way through the series. What a joke.

[armand.kay]

Its going to be for CBB :idc:

[Me. I Am Salman]

We should have had life feed today :rolleyes:

[Maia]

And Channel 5's operation to completely tar & feather Big Brother UK continues

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Stop pissing and moaning on here and email Channel 5, get on twitter, get on ds and facebook.

[Black Dagger]

Yes, because it'll work really effectively, all through BB12 every single video that C5 put up on Facebook was spammed with 'LIVE FEED'

[Ramsay]

they're saving it for CBB lol

[JohnnyBB]

House Dierector told Me That EPG's Can Change Last Minute Also He Said Its Coming So Dont Rule Anything For Tonight Out ;)

Takes about 1 minute of your life to post something you're passionate about.

Cant be a bad thing.

[Ramsay]

everytime i make a live feed comment it gets deleted..meh i just did one there see how long it lasts haha

[Black Dagger]

I'm not saying it isn't, but I have posted on Facebook and Twitter, on here, on DS... they've not taken anything into account, otherwise we'd have had some form of live-feed by now or been told we'll be getting some.

[Jack_]

I honestly think even though we've all spammed them before, here and DS, and any other support we can drum up on Twitter/Facebook should all go batsh*t at them either through some sort of petition, spamming emails/contact forms etc.

Like we should go all out in one massive campaign. I have been thinking actually, you know how Endemol are having a big meeting worldwide about The Voice in all the different countries, is it not possible we could contact someone at the head of Endemol and complain? Because surely if every other country in the world has live feed for their Big Brother, C5 are breaching the premise of the show? Surely we must have some sort of ground to stand on? Like even slightly?

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I'm glad you agree

This needs to happen. Don't think people are trying hard enough and Channel 5 are just getting away with it.

[Patrick]

What do you think we did in 2011?

-We had people on their Facebook CONSTANTLY during CBB8, I mean every minute of the day - attacking them over Live Feed.

-We even had Freederm having to write a public apology of some sort on their official Facebook because people were starting on them too.

-Then we had people calling in throughout CBB9 - so that obviously got their attention too.

-We had petitions, sign boards at evictions, Twitter campaigns, hundreds of complaints sent etc

They are ignorant bastards who don't listen to a word we say. They want the show to be their own version of TOWIE, and that's that - no matter what we want, they think their way is best.

The fact they've actually went and LIED to us, and now they'll turn it around and give us Live Feed for CBB10 and be like:

'Well we didn't lie LOL *trollface* we said there'd be Live Feed, your getting it for CBB. Because we did Live Feed for an hour on CBB in January and that was a success, so it's only right it returns for this CBB. Never mind BB.'

That is how they'll try and get out of it.

I've said time and time again, the most effective way - would be to get the eviction crowd to start a chant. But they never ******ing bother.

[Black Dagger]

Yeah, instead of saying 'Get .... out' for no ****ing reason, that is what they should be doing.

[Macie Lightfoot]

I know... I bet Scott would have had a 100+ page quote thread like Ben Duncan as well, it's just stupid. :bored:

I'm pretty sure they can sort out a cheap free live-feed even if it was online, it's just moronic :idc:

I highly doubt Scott would've been as epic as Ben, but we'll see in time I guess.

[Ramsay]

i remember when BOTS has the call in and one of the topics was live feed..of course they knew they were trolling us and every call was about live feed and jamie would just treat them like ****

[Joe.]

If it's not on the fourth friday then I don't suspect at all?

[Shanna]

I have watched every single Big Brother. I'm an avid fan. And I am sick to the back teeth of the lack of live feed issue.

It's pointless now for us fans. The hardcore fans anyway. I understand that there are viewers now that are happy with highlights only. IF I wanted highlights of a crap show then I'd tune into TOWIE and such like.

Thank you C5 for not listening to your viewers, and long time fans of the show. I am THIS close to switching off...as I no longer see the point of this program. I can't get a decent read on housemates, everything is fixed and edited to show us what you want us to see. Your allowance of nominations is a farce, infact...the whole show is a farce. So Thank You! again, for ruining my enjoyment of one of my favourite tv shows this past decade.

Sick of it.
