Just my quick rant!!!

If the only reason Ch 4 have axed the live feed is because of money....I for one would be glad to pay extra to Ch4...via Virgin ..( or Sky) for the service! ( This does not mean that I think we should have to..we pay enough for a TV license!! Then pay again for our Virgin and Sky)

I look forward to Big Brother all year , I used to have live feed on all day, (whilst doing other things too), not just because I am an avid fan, but can't work or go out much due to agoraphobia and panic attacks....BB is for 3 months of the year a bit of a lifline I suppose. ( May sound sad to some I know but we all have our little quirks don't we??)

Thank you Ch4 for spoiing my much looked forward to summer!!!

Rant over!!!! :blush2:

I used to say it was because of money but then Stu(a member on here)said something about cameras and designing the house and paying people so it changed my mind.

But surely all this has to go on anyway PJ? I know everyone is getting sick of hearing about live feed at the monment, but its only day 2, they are losing viewers, and most certainly losing VOTING viewers..there must be a compromise they could come to! Even if it was 11pm to 11 am or vice versa!

Channel 4 gets very little from the TV license and very little from cable. Their money comes from adverts.

I agree Fom...BUT..as I said...I would be willing to pay for live feed as an extra..so would many people I suspect! PLUS...can you even imagine how much money they get every tme an advert is shown????? (not trying to be awkward or arguamentative..just making a point!):xyxwave:
