They could put live feed on the apps and website uncensored

[JohnnyBB]

But channel 5 refuse to do this for us, they dont want us to watch the live feed, we know full well that there all set up and internet ready to put a live feed on the apps and website, the live feed still gets moniterd 24 hours a day, they have a full legal team they just dont want to let us watch it. :nono:

You think they'd put a few hours on the website to get us hooked so we all **ck the football off but they still refuse too, well when they've only got 950k veiwers watching tonights show while the footballs on let it be on channel 5 and the producers heads that they sunk there own show.

[Jarrod]

We've answered this every single series. They don't want to give us Live Feed because they "want to focus on social media and the highlights show"

Other than that, I can't think of any reason other than it's just not financially viable for them to run a 24 hour live feed.

[Marsh.]

Because they want it to be a Towie like show. They don't care for what Big Brother is supposed to be.

[Josy]

They cant even get the ratings for the main show or bots right now, I want LF as much as anyone but there's no way at all to justify forking out even more money to give is LF when viewers aren't even turning in for the main show, it's just not going to happen right now.

[Marsh.]

No doubt if they could just make it a twice a week scripted show, they would.

[Marsh.]

How much would it set them back to provide a feed though? They are presumably filming them 24/7 anyway.

I dont know how much dose it cost for somone on minimum wage to click a button to activate the live stream :shrug:

It'll cost them with hosting fees etc. I don't think it's viable for them at the moment with the way the ratings are.

I get everyone wants live feed back but do we really need threads daily on it?

This.

Yes, Johnny, fire a PM off to the other members before starting a thread next time. :hmph:

Yeah but the OP is talking about them incorporating it into apps and online. That cost moneys to stream.

The more people who want it back the better. Big Brother NEEDS live feed.

[Jake.]

What I don't get is, last year Ben Frow said that the 2hr nightly feed wasn't 'going anywhere' given how well it was doing, yet before BB15 had began they had made their minds up anyway

[Marsh.]

Yes, that's what I meant. :laugh:

They are already filming them so how much would it cost them to broadcast on the website?

I'd be happy with those 2-3 hours in the evening like last year. Surely that would bring in decent enough ratings for 5*. I can't imagine it's a very popular channel as it is.

The petitions never seem to do that well though.

Well that escalated quickly http://i.imgur.com/ib4oDmX.png

Are they really filming them 24/7 though? Without Live Feed they're probably just setting up situations at certain times and only filming at those times.

There's no way to tell without live feed is there?

They moan about not being able to afford to provide live feed yet they pay Rylan thousands to act like BOTS is the Rylan Show each night.

[Marsh.]

You better know yourself if you're talking about me little girl.

[Josy]

Oh the conspiracies have started.

*Leaves thread*

[Marsh.]

Has an actual petition ever been sent? How many supporters did it get? Just the population of DS and TiBB? :laugh:

[Alf]

They would rather spend money on arguably the worst TV show that as ever existed giving a wage to a guy who is incompetent at hosting a TV show, and appearance fees to Z list celebrities.

Around 200 or something if that. Someone was started one a few years ago though. But it was one of those crappy petition sites lol

I'm getting bored with these Live feeds threads

[Me. I Am Salman]

there are third world countries with no access to clean water who have a BB that comes with live feed but still not us

I find them more interesting then Big Brother at the moment

Exactly. We raise this issue basically every series. We WON'T get Live Feed, no matter what we do. Live Feed is gone, and Channel 5 are doing fine without it, in their eyes.

Personally, I don't mind the live feed not being here. I didn't watch the two hours in the night last year really. Live Feed would be mostly bird noise with what they censor for the highlights show to "make drama".

Reading the start of that post, I didn't expect it to end the way it did

[Me. I Am Salman]

i just mean if even they can be able to afford it why can't the UK version :/

[Marsh.]

i just mean if even they can be able to afford it why not the UK version :/

Because getting 2 viewers out of the 4 who own TVs is a ratings smash.

Exactly. I'd be happy if they simply replaced that mess with one hour of feeds or some extra highlights.

Jeff Ford admitted a few years ago that money was never the problem. I think it has to be about control, and with a live feed people get an alternative source of information rather than just being fed twitter updates or edited shows.
