Default 24/7 Big Brother

Does anyone know if we are going to get a 24/7 house feed on Sky, Cable or Freeview this year?

Is the red button returning for this years show or do we have to buy into the feed on the channel 4 web site?

I do hope so... being a person that tends not to use Microsoft Windows I can't get the live feed on the computer without dusting down an old PC and watching it crash every couple of hours.

Thanks Mike

Good I didn't fancy paying for it when the calls have gone up to 50p. It just uses up the phone budget for the show! And it's something to watch during the day when I'm not at work.

Well we are both well know red button users Mike, as well as late night Big Brother watchers.

I'm getting excited now... not long to go.

Note for people with freeview

You will need to retune your set top box so you can get channel 305. Then the red button will work!

Just retuned my box and there it was... the big brother eye on channel 305

Same here, but I am so glad it's gonna be back for the main show. Hurrah.

Does anyone get the internet live feed does it still take breaks when the ads go on or is it total coverage?

And is anyone planning on going to sleep tonight? lol We're not I'm going to be about as much use as a chocolate fireguard in work tomorrow lol

I watched the BB5 on the internet and that didn't have breaks... so I guess BB6 and this years show will be the same.

They still have the times when they cut the sound on the internet feed just like the TV feed.

The best Big Brother to watch on the internet is the US version of the show. They have four cameras you can chose from unlike the one on the UK show your stuck with.

You will have to find the instruction book for your set top box to retune it. It's different from machine to machine. The option to retune will be in the set up menu.

I am actually very tempted to get the internet feed.

Remember Big Bro1 & 2 the red button interactive had two camera options for you to choose from. Iw onder why that changed.

You just watch E4 and press the red button on freeview for the live feed.
