You still can't get on it Billy?

Your not the only one hun, a few people over on the C4 BB forums can't get on it either.

UPDATE - It's a network issue, to quote Alan from digital spy:
Hi,

Yesterday (Saturday 19th January) we had reports that some people are having problems accessing the site. We have been told by our network supplier that one of the networks they peer with is having routing problems. This means that if you are also connected to that network that Digital Spy may not be as available as it should be.

As of Sunday 20th January, we are still doing all we can to resolve this issue. We apologise for any inconvenience this might cause and rest assured that our network team are trying to solve this as I type this.

Regards
DS Forum Support

Guys, if you want to access it while they're having network issues, try changing your IP by turning off and turning on your router, or try using a proxy.

I just hate the whole website tbh. They are always at eachothers throats, won't respect or take into account the opinions of others and are very personal towards eachother and to those appearing on TV shows (not just BB). The backlash towards Hope and Leon during X Factor was disgusting with Hope being called slags, sluts, *****s etc and the fans of Rhydian taking every opportunity to have a swipe at Leon. Fiona Phillips isn't the best of TV presenters but they take it to a whole new level in the showbiz forums, its always the same circle of people in that thread. They take slagging off Kerry Katona, Jodie Marsh, Katie & Peter, Carol Vorderman etc to the next level as well, and making it extremely personal which is uncalled for even if people (including me) don't particularly like any of them.

Its just a shame its the biggest media website otherwise it would have been closed down by now. It must generate a lot of income for the owners.

Ive got an AOL account on there, and it works fine

UPDATE - D.S. now works again on most ISPs and networks, it was fixed earlier on. Some people may still be unable to access it, but it should propagate properly over the next 2 to 3 hours.
