Latest Facebook Rumour stating that BB Bosses are allowing Housemates to Phone Home.
 
Not sure whether this is true or not.

But it's going about Facebook that the bosses have confirmed to one of the housemates in the Diary Room that they will be able to contact their family via telephone in the morning.

Hence no live streaming.

I don't know whether to believe it or not, I mean it seems like the whole CBB6 'Ulrika was paid to win and La Toya stayed in a hotel' conspiracy again.

But I mean who knows?

Do you think Endemol would really allow this? I mean none of the celebrities really seem really 'high maintaince' surely if they could handle John McCririck, Ulrika Johnson, Vinnie Jones etc in the house then these bunch should be fine?

King Gizzard 19-08-2011 02:58 AM

Alot of rumours will arise now there's no live feed. Face it, C5/Endemol can do whatever the hell they like.

CharlieO 19-08-2011 03:03 AM

Well this is the thing, Channel 5/Endemol can do whatever they like to get the housemates to do what bosses want now as no one is watching. The whole show is a foregone conclusion in the production offices now. BB is no more and the reality is dead. Now all it is is pure entertainment which is a load of crap. No doubt they will get the ratings though, so they will be happy and it doesn't really matter what we think.

King Gizzard 19-08-2011 03:10 AM

Wouldnt put it past them telling housemates what to say/do/who to be friends with/who to have relationships with either as well

AJ. 19-08-2011 03:12 AM

24/7 livefeed & no contact, that's all I want.

But didn't Tara get married like a couple of days ago? Understandable if so, just hope they don't allow anything like this for the main series.

JohnnyBB 19-08-2011 03:12 AM

outrages we should be disscusing the housemates om the live feed thread here we are not kmowing what the ****s going on with our beloverd bb everythings gone tits up i didint want it to return like this its nit the way everything should be om the biggest brother ever :(

SimBrotherNetwork 19-08-2011 03:14 AM

Well C5 and Endemol can do what they want now, i can see them doing this if someone says they want to leave, they can just put in a free phone call to keep them in

slow&steady 19-08-2011 03:16 AM

If that's true, its worse than i thought. just married or not - no contact! this really is class a BS without the live feed.

Kerry 19-08-2011 03:16 AM

Can see why there are rumours. Two of the HM's were seen doing the 'phone' gesture' to their friends as they walked in

Exactly man, tonight's launch was the best one since BB9 - and it's like, we came from such hype and stuff all day right up to launch - so much excitement and then...gone.


It feels as if it hasn't even happened, like they aren't even in there.

Usually we have our Live Feed Discussion Thread open by now, and we're all talking and laughing and sh*tting ourselves every 15 Minutes when the theme tune goes on when LF went on a break out of the blue.

It's horrible. :(

Tony1111 19-08-2011 03:18 AM

We knew this already months ago when the series was first announced. They are getting rid of the option come the new "proper" series. :)

Still I wish we had Livefeed. :(

CharlieO 19-08-2011 03:18 AM

Channel 5 want ratings and entertainment. They don't give a monkeys about sticking to the original concepts. Which in my book is truly sad. Back to basics is what BB needed.
I don't think we have ever been this far away from the original concept and I for one am not happy with it what so ever.

No Contact & Live Feed is the foundations which hold Big Brother together and with out them its not really the same programme. I wish channel 5 had just done a show prettty much exactly the same but not used the Big Brother name in vain. Ruining the whole idea of it for me.

Yeah it is! bring it back FFS!

SimBrotherNetwork 19-08-2011 03:23 AM

You know guys, the backlash on youtube, facebook, twitter is shocking! I can really see C5 bringing back live feed for when the normal BB kicks off

Zippy 19-08-2011 03:24 AM

I don't care about the celeb version breaking rules because it doesnt have anything to do with the original concept of BB. It wasn't a celebrity experiment. It was about normal everyday people confined with no contact.

The celeb version is just a novelty spin on it.

slow&steady 19-08-2011 03:26 AM

"Usually we have our Live Feed Discussion Thread open by now, and we're all talking and laughing and sh*tting ourselves every 15 Minutes when the theme tune goes on when LF went on a break out of the blue"
Are we really gonna be on this late in a few nights time? discussing what? what a drag.

Hopefully.

We just have to keep it up - I bet they think they can just butter us up with more clips and tasks and stuff and little twists and we'll forget about it, when in Reality it'll make us more mad that we can't watch more!

Wildcat! 19-08-2011 03:28 AM

Yeah, I ve been saying all week, how I dont really care, its OK, no LF, so I can sleep in instead of watching it ALL NIGHT, but I am awake anyways, no LF, and it sucsk to be honest! LOL!

Even if those rumors arent true, Ch5 cant really deny them, since no one can watch! Oh well!

:(

Ramsay 19-08-2011 03:30 AM

I never cared about LF at all till tonight
Its so weird not having it on in the background :(
But yeah with all the backlash i would be surprised if they didnt bring it back for the normal series

All there video's on youtube have got 20 dislikes and maybe 7 or 5 likes, every single comment on facebook is pretty much 2 do with live feed, i can really see them bringing it back for the normal big brother

RichardG 19-08-2011 03:34 AM

Now that we have no live feed the rumours will be going crazy. No doubt angry fans will be making stuff up just to try and ruin the new series as they're annoyed, people will be claiming things that their "sources" have told them and people will spread these rumours everywhere to get back at C5. We have a choice to either believe them or just ignore them and pass them off as false. Personally, i'm going to choose the second choice. Unless I ever see any hard evidence to suggest otherwise then i'm going to pass it off as BS. While some rumours may be very very true, there's likely to be far more which are false and so i'm not going to ruin this series for myself by worrying about everything which may or may not be going on and deciding weather it's fake or not. Honestly, it's not worth the trouble. Enjoy the series for what it is and take your time following it. For all we know it could be cancelled yet again after BB12 so I know personally I don't want to ruin the chance to watch what could possibly be the last series EVER (because, face it, if it's been cancelled twice then no other channel will touch it - it will be dead completely!).

There will be a BB13 Dude.

Even if there is, that still means we might only have two main series left and two Celebrity series left. It sounds a lot now but you can guarantee it will go quickly. I know personally i'm just not going to get involved in all these silly rumours which pop up around facebook and twitter. Maybe i'm just being ignorant to the whole thing but, honestly, to me, i'm not bothered. I'd much rather be a happy Big Brother viewer than an angry Big Brother viewer. :thumbs:

Patrick 19-08-2011 03:45 AM

LOL

Darren Cult

So apperantley Social Networking Media is suppose to be at the 'heart' of Big Brother this year eh Channel 5?
It's just a shame everyone that likes this page is just commenting two important little words!
