We are looking at a pre recorded show, everyone knows that but these constant updates, live exclusives and leaked info seem to do more harm than good. The main reason why I cant like BB anymore is because I would rather they filmed during the day, didn't release anything and show highlights at night. That would be more fun as its like xmas when someone tells you what your present is, its less exciting to open it and watching tonights show knowing half of whats going on is deflating.
Ive tried to not read updates but they are all over the forums and ch5 website so its inevitable that the only way to do it right is only to watch the main show and forget the forums and Bots.

The tweets barely give anything away though.
Here's a few from yesterday..
11.26pm: Simon is flapping his arms and looking at himself in the mirror. That's showbiz! #BBUKLive
11.13pm: Chloe is doing a seal impression. Not a bad effort, actually #BBUKLive
8.47pm: In the bedroom zone, Jade is barking orders at Simon. Can they get the keys to this room tonight? #BBUKLive
7.21pm: Marc is telling his naff Joke of the Day. It's about someone making sweet love to a tree. Lukewarm response #BBUKLive
5.38pm: Marc is giving the housemates another science lesson. Today's topic of conversation - mutations. #BBUKLive

The worst thing about the updates is that they're awful, vacuous and ultimately pointless. Not having live feed is bad enough but to have that replaced with tweets that tell us nothing and ones that tease us telling us to watch BOTS or the main show to see what happens is just a disgraceful way to treat viewers. I shouldn't have to wait hours on end to find out what's happening, I should know now.

Actually it should just be the show as it happens online, No pointless Twitter updates.
