Disappointing but can't really blame Channel 5. They arent in this business to lose money. The live feed was getting about a 5th (being generous) of the viewership it needed to make sense for Channel 5. With such miniscule numbers, its very doubtful any amount of promotion or any time slot would have made much difference. They tried. The viewers did not respond. Unfortunately the BB hardcore enthusiasts who frequent this board do not represent the population as a whole, which in the end decides these things. Frankly, looking at the programme numbers for the main show, I'm more conerned whether BB itself will survive beyond next summer than I am about minimally viewed live feeds at this point.
