They do, it's just Desmond doesn't and won't pay for it

Ben Frow wants it, Endemol want it, Desmond doesn't. May change when Viacom come in, there are rumours they'll increase LF later this series but don't hold your breath

No matter what people say about Live Feed it being dropped definitely were the cause of the ratings flop of BB10.

It went from averaging 3.8 million in BB9 then Channel 4 dropped 24 hour live feed and BB10 dropped to 2.5 million viewers.

Live feed made the viewer feel in charge and the fact it was taken away after producers had manipulated things so much in BB7,8,9 was the last straw, the viewers didn't feel like they were in control and could no longer control/manipulate the housemates anymore but instead were the ones being controlled/manipulated. FACT.

BB was the publics show and we controlled it but when that went away the viewers slipped, live feed is the only way to get that back.

Channel 5 live feed had over a million viewers some nights! And that's for a civilian series but they cant seem to put a pin in it and officially run it for a series. Live feed on Channel 5 allways feels last minute and thrown together last minute.

They should teach this to media students on what not to do when you have a popular show.

The live feed needs to be there.

I would happily pay a sub for some live feed

We need more. I was gutted when live feed ended last night.

The lack of live feed really kills the show for me - I still feel I have to watch but it's certainly not the same :(

ahh yes the live feed BB 1-3 (I call those my lost years) as I never slept was so addicted to the live feed back then brilliant viewing.. BB will never be the same without the live feed.. without it it's just like watching corrie/eastysuspenders and being very dissapointed with the plot..
