Is launch night going to be proper live?
 

Or a delay like bb11. i miss the "LIVE" Icon when the hm entred the house .

It will be on delay. All live shows are.

Im sure Brian said in an interview that it was going to be 100% live and he was ****ting it?

When they say that they mean it'll be about 5 minutes delayed.

I hope on eviction nights we don't get the usual, people coming on here spoiling it before it's actually shown on TV

Oh yeah thats not to bad.

Didnt last years fail of a final have a a 45 minute delay?

Pathetic.

Hopefully, I remember some saying on here who knew someone at the launch last year that it was like a 50 minute delay , pathetic :bored:

i thought bb7 was 100% live and someone swore on final night (Nikki i think) before 9 pm ?

Yeah, and I remember in Ultimate Big Brother (I think, possibly BB11, can't remember) they evicted two housemates at 9pm and we only saw it at 11:10pm. On BBLB they told us to 'tune in to the LIVE eviction tonight at 11:10pm!' :joker:

And theres allways annoying ****wits on here who will post a thread with whos been evicted in the title because of the ****ty delay.

Exactly, it was the same for CBB7. We had pictures all over the forum of Nicole T evicted like an hour before it was even shown :bored:

Anything more than 30 minutes is just ridiculous. As long as it's less than that then I don't mind - 5 or 10 minutes isn't too bad.

No, nothing will be properly live again for as long as the BB house is based at Elstree. After 2006, people complained about the crowd noise because its a residential area. The council enforced loads of stupid rules, basically limiting the amount of shows that require crowds on a friday, and only two non-friday 'live' crowd requiring shows a year. The delay means they can still have a crowd, and be out before a certain time which is also enforced by Herts council. That's why the evictions and live shows were so much better pre-bb8. It was live and they had very few limitations. When the house was in bow, there were no limitations and was basically a weekly televised rave. Grab a glo-stick!

So pre bb8 it was 100% live with no delays then ?

it wont be live my ticket says show kicks off at 18.45

The last properly live series was Big Brother 7 in 2006.

Awww gotcha cheers :)

Well Ed from the Daily Star replied to me with this when I asked;

It was Lea calling the audience c you next tuesdays, for booing her when she arrived wasnt it?

No, it wasn't that.

BB6 and BB7 were both 110% live on all occasions - hence the 'Live' graphic bar at the top of the screen.

But during the course of BB7 the housemates started getting a little cocky and began shouting and swearing when Davina told them not to.

Which obviously resulted in the discontinuation of Live Shows.

Kind of ironic though, how the only series with a tourettes housemate is the one that is guilty of swearing the most.

It'd be kind of awesome if they just decided to be rebels and go ahead with a live show and kept the crowd there for ages and then all of a sudden the police pull up.

Just imagine Davina about to announce the evictee and then we just hear Sirens and stuff. :laugh:

I really miss the live stig! I think it might have been live during BB8 because I remember a live tag during BB8.
