Get down off ya high horse, people are allowed there own opinions, just like your having your own opinion now!!.. I love Big Brother and there is alot of things about this series that i like but in MY OPINION channel 5 have spoilt it.. i dont believe we are gettin to know the people on it, when Tara came out of the house she was shocked to be asked aload of stuff because most of it didnt happen the way channel 5 had edited it to make us think it had.
Most of the people who had met Pamela seemed to find her annoying and have a problem with it, i dont think this came across to us at all in the highlights show, i didnt find Pamela at all annoying, infact i liked her and couldnt understand everyones problem.
We have enough reality programmes like that.. TOWIE, Geordie Shore, Jersery Shore etc. Big brother was different, we got to know the real people, but because of channel 5 we have just gained another show like TOWIE and the rest.

Things move on - embrace the change, as they say!

If C5/Endemol thought LF would add to their coffers, they would have had it like a shot. But they decided it wouldn't - so they didn't. Simple as that really.

They have an opportunity to reinstate LF for BB12, if they feel it will benefit them in some way. But they probably won't.

If C5/Endemol feel that, for every critic, there are two or more people who like (or don't mind) the changes then you are "pissing against the wind" as the saying goes!

maybe you need to watch this clip from J Ford head of entertainment at C5.he states it was C5 decision to axe the live feed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXADO7EgPto
C5 have the rights to Show BB how they want and edit how they want
its up to Endomol to say what can legally be shown in highlights but 100% down to C5 editing
So yes C5 are 100% to blame for no live feed and the way in which the main show is going out.
Endomol only
Where you get the idea that Endomol are responsible for no live feed i have no idea as it is soley down to c5 to put the show out how they choose
This clip will explain that

J Ford said the axing of live feed was not about money at all

Interesting but not altogether surprising we've lost LF if this is the case.

I've always assumed LF must add quite a bit to the costs. Someone's got to be there 24/7, monitoring what is going on, applying birdsong/aircraft noise whenever anything of the slightest interest is being talked about!

Endemol is in a bad financial position and C5 is a small channel, so luxuries like LF presumably had to be dispensed with.

Yes Once Desmond set the Strict Money budget on this.


But he could still do overnight and afternoon for tasks
in my view.

Stupid thread is stupid.

I'm sorry, but you are just wrong. the network has a HUGE influence on the show.
