Dear Follz,
Thank you for your e-mail regarding the lack of red button streaming on this
years' Celebrity Big Brother.
Last summer we found that rather than watching live streaming on red button,
viewers much preferred watching more bite-size video clips from that day's
action. During the series, there were almost 19 million clips viewed, a 58%
increase. As this proved such a huge hit with fans, we've listened and
responded to how viewers now consume Big Brother and so have decided to go
this route this year.
However, streaming will still be available on Channel 4 throughout the night
and also late night and in the afternoon on E4. We will also be showing all
the other great shows that make up the Celebrity Big Brother experience,
including seven nights of Celebrity Big Brother house action, Celebrity Big
Brother's Little Brother, Celebrity Big Brother's Big Mouth and Diary Room
Uncut.
Nevertheless your comments regarding live streaming have been logged for the
attention of those who commission and make this programme.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact us.
Regards,
Lorna Dane
