its go to be back in some shape or form.
from fords comments earlier its clear the revenue needs to be raised.
that's the most crazy thing if they just have faith in the format and maybe more importantly faith in the fans it will work good for them.

remember just before bb11 ? they gave away those free passes the blooming website crashed with people trying to get one.

If its being offered free I think the best we will get is either some late night feed or few hours dotted through the day and some in the night.

I remember just missing short on one of those BB11 free passes. :bawling:

aye they went in like 3 mins flat..

Was late getting online, while I was and am more than willing to pay, I was gutted. I gave up hope a month or two too early to be one of the dirty LF thirty.

Desperate for more news!

Me too, I'm getting really excited now about the new series.

The feeling of getting a free BB11 Live Pass :lovedup: Kicked off Summer 2010 in style.

I really do have a slightly more positive feeling about the Live Feed this year.

will let hope
*touch wood*
that we do

So these emails confirm LF? If they're not false?

I don't understand the emails, i'm a little suspicious with these alleged "confirmation" of live feed on email. WHY would Ben, (who has been with Channel 5 in his new job as head of programming less than 2 or 3 months) potentially risk his job in telling a viewer about a decision that hasn't made to press yet?! Obviously there's customer/audience service, but to tell someone to keep it quiet is just plain stupid...That's almost like ITV head of programming saying "yes its true, X factor is getting the axe after this year, but keep it quiet" when obviously it'll be all over twitter in 5 minutes , it's totally unprofessional. Usually in media, nothing is official until it's confirmed in a press release etc, so don't take the word of it coming back just yet people.

all I can say it was 100% off Ben frow
im confused to be honest as I told people on twitter I didn't want to share the email as he did say keep it quiet then when others started posting I thought maybe the situation had changed.

I saw one reply that was the same contact numbers as I saw so assumed it must be legit.I think as happyfan said on Twitter its just best to hangfire now until C5 want to confirm.

I do know some others have had replies and different again on some details but saying the same thing.So that might suggest there's a very fluid situation going on at the moment.

cut a very long story short I sent C5 a huge folder at the end of last year even though I left Digital spy I keep just poking C5 about a livefeed coming back.Jeff ford wrote me a letter about some of the issues I raised in that and some of the guys at DS wrote stuff which I printed off and sent back to him.

when I got in touch with Ben Frow I asked him did he still have the Folder etc and it went from there basically.

bit pissed off really if some people on another site thought it was funny trying to suggest they had emails I assumed that meant it was okay to show but when someone here pointed out its more than likely false emails I removed it asap.

Well one thing its done is get people talking and posting and just as confused as the first year C5 took it over...lol

I hope there is some truth in it Oathy :)

aye it just hasn't been the same without it.

loved getting the free pass for bb11 feeds <3

I just hope any coverage that comes back shocks them with the numbers it creates, and with luck make them realise like the show a feed is far from dead.
Think not having one for the last 2 years has made a lot of people realise how good it was.

Yeah surely by looking at the 5* and Ch5 ratings will make them realize how many people are willing to watch. Throughout some CBB series, the 1 hr of LF has almost got exactly the same ratings as the actual show.

why don't you just screenshot the email for **** sake

I did was under the impression others had replies back meaning all was okay.
but there's doubt those posts on DS were legit when they failed to show the screenshots even though they posted copy/paste with his contact numbers at the bottom.

the last thing I want to do is piss him off so I deleted to be on the safe side.
with luck C5 are going to confirm shortly because the email does seem vague on detail apart from the fact its going to be 5* showing.
