So important that Channel 5 thought is wasn't needed.

Live feed is the most important part of the show. It stops the producers being able to edit anywhere near the same way they do with the main programme. Without live feed, Big Brother is no different than any of those scripted reality shows because no-one knows what the hell is going on outside of the one hour of (selected & edited) highlights each night. The appeal that kick started BB in 2000 has been completely stripped away. Channel 5 obviously can't see that it is an important element to the show and are more interested in attracting uber-tards like Amy Childs and Katy Price.

But that's what I'm trying to say. The Live Feed was important to BB.
But the show needs to be reintroduced to a new audience. An audience who haven't got time to sit around for hours on end watching the feed getting to know housemates. This new generation is constantly on the move, and the show has to move with it.
BB's appeal has been slowly stripped away for years now.
The world communicates differently now.

Well some of us ******ing do like to watch the Live Streaming, so they shouldn't be so ignorant to the hardcore fans just because their new little fan base have such busy schedules.

Also it's alright then fair enough to axe Live Feed because this 'new generation' is on the move and all that bollocks - but to actually OPENLY STATE that you're aiming to drive the show into a Soap Opera direction and would like to create storylines in the house by interfering with the housemates, is just a farce - it's a travesty and a kick in the balls to all of us.

They never actually said anything of the sort. Marcus Bentley tweeted yesterday, to say it was a load of crap and whoever started the rumour was a gob****e.

And the some of you that watch the live feed was the reason it was axed. The number was pitiful.

Hardcore fans? You mean the few of you that watched live feed? So that'll be school kids and the unemployed. How come you think people who don't have time to watch live feed (becasuse of work and sleep and life) are not hardcore fans?

Why don't you let the show actually start before you get your knickers in a knot.
