BIG Brother chiefs are set to do a U-turn over the show’s live telly feed.

Channel 4 has decided that it will “review” its decision to cut the live streaming after a huge backlash from fans.

Viewers threatened to boycott Big Brother 10 after the 24/7 feed on E4 was slashed to a few hours overnight.

As a result ratings have taken a dive. Average viewing figures for the series are 2.4million – almost a million down on last year.

Last night the Daily Star confronted Channel 4 over the ratings and the live feed issue.

We asked if bosses would now reconsider their decision about the streaming.

And they admitted the matter will be looked into again for next year.

A show spokesman said: “We review plans and programming every year after each series.

“So yes we will also review streaming too.

“The proportion of fans who have been in touch with Big Brother regarding the live feed is small and wouldn’t account for a drop in viewership.”

Cash-strapped C4 claimed the feed was too costly and that only a few thousand people watched it.

However fans argued that hundreds of thousands tune in.

But the spokesman said: “Our official figures show that on average 38,000 people watched the late night streaming between midnight and 3am last year.”

C4 has invited fans to join a debate programme called The TV Show on Thursday, July 2, where BB10 and the loss of the streaming will be raised.

Last night freaky boxer Angel McKenzie, 36, and posh Freddie Fisher, 24, were facing eviction from the BB house.

I fear next year will be to late for many fans, I don't accept the 'cost' arguement, they wont get viewers back unless they make an effort, and they are far from bankrupt!

Next year?
Well, it's better than never getting it back I guess. At least they're trying.
