Totally agree with you FatRatSneez, im so peed off about not having Livefeed:devil:

um..no live feed...no big brother at all

I doubt that many people watch the live feed all the time anyway, I certainly know I have better things to do than watch people talk and stuff for hours on end.

I do think that BB will lose its "indentify" if it gets rid of LiveFeed. Hense thats the whole point.

Well that IS what Big Brother is! About watching people! And you do the same by watching the highlights :laugh:

And I don't watch the live feed, but I know people do watch a lot of it and they are probably BB's most loyal audience...I don't see why their core fans should be alienated...I'm actually looking forward to seeing BB go down the pan now! haha

I am aware of that you know, no need to be patronising. But if you have enough time to watch the live feed for hours on end then its time to get a job or get a life. Theres more to life than the BB live feed which hardly anyone watches.

haha why are people saying that those who watch the live feed have no life?

Are you not just as bad for tuning in EVERY NIGHT for 13 weeks to watch?

Who said we tune in every night? I certainly don't, I've got better things to do than plan my life around a TV show which clearly a lot of people do on here. its quite scary actually.

i loved the live feed!! cos i can tell you, that when i did watch the feed there was good parts that they didnt even put in the highlights show!!!

I know, I'm not daft. I've seen the live feed before but I can take it or leave it. But of course some things wont end up in the highlights, I mean it can't be easy to condense 24 hours into 1.

I'm not too fussed tbh. We're still getting brief installments of LF, say in 2 hour segments a few times a day, which is good enough for me!

P.S: What about the secret channel? Will that just be blank then? :S

Nobody watches it all the time (I hope not anyway), but the ability to be able to dip in and out of it ads so much to the show - and at one point E4 got more viewers for people sleeping than they did with regular programming at that point.

It won't be so bad if it's just for CBB, maybe it will be unpopular and they will bring it back for BB10. :puzzled:

So that is the point of the live feed, so we can see the stuff not in the HL and see the full picture.

It doesn't mean people watch the live feed 24/7. But people are always reporting on it, recording it etc so have it there if anything interesting is happening and we can go back and check.

To say its sad is just a poor argument, you are posting about it on a BB fansite afterall. :tongue:

What sets BB apart from all other reality shows is the fact you can watch 24/7 and know what is happening every moment. It is why the name Big Brother was used.

They already have the streaming up (the test card is on the secret channel) plus they'll have it running for those sorting out clips for the site. So it wouldn't cost them anymore to make it available on the red button.

It is just another excuse to take more control of the show.

All the complaining that has gone on over the last few years, to Ofcom, the press, Channel 4 etc, is probably the main reason they've axed the 24 hour live feed. C4 just can't be bothered with the flack they get about Big Brother anymore. The irony is that it is the biggest fans of the show who complain about it the most.

Might be 24hr live feed with BB10.

I cant see it as a major loss tbh

I'd rather watch the housemates talking and doing stuff over watching a zoomed in shot of one of the light fittings while a track of birds singing plays :whistle:

So yeah... massive loss for E4... ...

C4 have already indicated they don't plan to bring it back.

But you don't know what happens every moment and thats the point. The live feed is still heavily edited no matter how you look at it. They control what room we see and what camera we see it from (if at all and it isn't pre recorded clips of the rooms), they control what we hear (sound dips in mid conversation etc) and they can cut the live feed off at any point (e.g. Fight Night 2).

BB is no longer about watching 24/7 and it hasn't been for some time. That concept was lost years ago, because its no longer new. They now want us to watch the highlights show.

Does anyone have the email add for C4 because i want to write & complain, about not having the livefeed, i know it wont make much difference, but i will feel better if i write & tell them how angry im feeling as avid of the show, & not been giving the opoion of watching the LF
