ITV and Channel 4 may be getting some of the television licence money in future - on the news today!

Yes a Chunk from that Bloated BBC Tax
for news and local news.
Not for Endemol Productions

Was there a pay-to-view subscription for BB's 8 and 9 like there was for BB7 online? I know I paid for BB7 as I didn't have access to red button, but I didn't follow it up for 8 and 9.

If the powers-that-be are saying there's no money for live feed they could at least given that option, especially after saying the reason for cutting the live feed was because of people watching online anyway... but watch what, it's all clips!!!

Surely they know die-hard fans would've paid...

[arista]

Yes Pay to View is the way to go.
Big Brother Endemol need to move to another Channel , though.

Its just no good without LF.... we get LF between 1am and 6am.... everyones in bed by 2.30am .... so whats the point.
The forums boring cos all we can discuss is whats shown on the HL's.It was great to be able to come in from work log in and read the forum to find out whats been going on on LF... or simply having it on and chatting on line and seeing what REALLY happens.
Channel 4 cant be doing yourself any favours cos you are slowly losing your audience BIG TIME!!

c4 gave bad ideas to others countries
BB will start in France in 3 days but there will be no live feed
BB had good ratings here, there was no need to cut live feed
They will kill the show with this stupid decision.

[vesavius]

LF kept BB (more) honest. Without it they are having a field day editing to present their own agenda. It's pathetic.

Even if you didnt watch it 24/7 it was a valuable resource for the community through live updaters and unofficial clips. It fed the fans and made BB seem more like an 'experience' rather then just a crap scripted soap opera that you feel you have missed 3 episodes of every time you turn it on because so much has happened that isnt shown.

Add to this the nazi like menatallity of the official site in their deleting posts that they don't like and the 'reality' of BB is non-existant. C4 have truly lost sight of what made BB great and despite the actual HMs being brilliant this year the show is dying.

Can you imagine how good this years would have been with full open honest support by C4?

I am also definitly NOT seeing where the resources have been 're-directed' to... unless you call paying pointless nobodies from shows past to edit the main site (just to promote themselves) and having irrelevant celebraties, who obviously have no idea about the UK BB, like BoyzIIMen on BBLB that?

Yes.

The C4 Top Brass don't want this show and havent for years. C4 also have been talking about how to get rid of it and replace the money it makes for years. They don't want BB, no matter how much you do, and because of that they are willing to kill the show.

Read this from 2007;

Quote; "You have got to go some to replace that, but we will do it at some point, of course we will. We are in a long period of transition, but we will do it." Lord Puttnam acknowledged that time had eroded what he termed Channel 4's "sense of purpose.

But he went on: "We shall renew that sense of commitment and sense of purpose and get that 'DNA' back in another context."



Some elements within C4 used to be able to defend it due to the massive revenue it earnt.

It no longer earns this revenue, so noone can any longer defend it's existance.

C4 are now misrepresenting it's viewing figures, cutting it's funding, and generally running BB into the ground in order to justify it's termination.

They have simply given up on BB and are just going through the motions to fulfil contractural obligations.

Fans be damned. They have made their money off you now. Screw you.

i really think they need 2 put 2 or 3 newbies in there, stir it up abit!! n defo fetch the live feed back!!!!!

[sbtak70]

I always considered Ch4 to be a decent channel!!! Fair enough if they don't want Big Brother anymore but that's no reason to murder it. Why didn't they make the most of going out on a high for the 10th series??? And then leave it to another channel to take up the reins.

Glad I'm not the only one. I am bored stiff during the day (I have my reasons) and that was the time I watched live feed the most. I think their reasons for not doing it this year were not real and they are just trying to save money.

i cant laugh no more,live feed always begins after midnight when h.m.s have gone to bed so what you people watching i`d like to know.is there a big brother fantasy pill out there for sale that you lot are taking because when i flik over i see snoring hms and you lot according to what you have been saying are watching live feed is it a secret channel that you are privy too.and please leave tom alone he`s the only one who speaks sense.enjoy your live feed!!!

[Jackie]

To be honest i've lost intrest in BB this year due to no red button its not the same without it.

[*mazedsalv**]

Im still furious about this because they are purposly doing this, we know that LF will create a big buzz on the forums/websites/newspapers/magazines= More interest= Higher ratings

How hard is it to understand?
