If Channel 5 aren't going to bring Live Feed back, which I wish they would.

Couldn't they just have a sort of extended live highlights show.

It would basically be the HL show but with more stuff in it.

Even if it was only online or was on in the middle of the night?

It would mean they wouldn't have to stump up for a live feed but the fans would still get to see more or the housemates.

Whats everyone's thoughts on this?

no
an hour is more than enough

fingers · 20-08-2011, 11:51 PM

The way they edit an hour is too long!

But you're not even getting an hour! You're getting around 42 minutes if you take into account the ads and editing/music, etc

Would prefer having CBB on for an hour and half and BOTS for 30 minutes.

emmetmcl · 20-08-2011, 11:52 PM

I think 1 hr 30 mins (without breaks, so it would work out as around 2hrs long would be good) and there would be no need for the "fancy" effects as it would only be the hardcore fans watching really.

It's quite ridiculous a spin off that has crap jokes and spunking dog is the same length as the HL show.

If they edited it well - yes.

If they would edit it like they are now - no thank you.

Yeah, this. I actually like Bit on the Side but I'd sacrifice 30 minutes of that for extended highlights.

If they were to do it, they could keep the normal show in this package but have more stuff in between without the **** editing and effects.

It would be easier to produce too.

Just dump the BOTS and show a bit of LIVE stuff.

Even if it's pre-recorded!

joeysteele · 20-08-2011, 11:57 PM

I think they could do 2 shows, one in the afternoon and one in the evening,repeated throughout the week as well, that would help a lot and give more footage.

You would get people saying a 2 hour show would be too long but then they also would likely want live feed to watch for hours on end.

It's hard to please everyone,I think Channel 5 have done really well but more footage is needed daily,they need to capitalise more on the housemates they have.

emmetmcl · 21-08-2011, 12:01 AM

Yeah, even if it isn't live, they need something.

I think an extended show could be good.

Or even just a second highlights show, showing the stuff that wasnt in the main show. Have it an hour long (probably 1.15 with ads), no crappy effects (making it easier to produce) and put it online only and maybe repeat the next day.

It would keep the casual viewers happy as well as giving the hardcore viewer something more, albeit not LF.

Yeah but you would still have the standard HL show to watch, and then could watch the extended one online later if you wished.

Nothing would be taken away from the main show.

Grimnir · 21-08-2011, 12:07 AM

i have said before that if no LF they should have 3 hours HLs show from 9pm to midnight and NO sideshow

Patrick · 21-08-2011, 12:12 AM

What Jordan said.

BOTS is horrible - this is the first series EVER that when watching a HL show I'm not tired by the end or I'm not waiting for it to be over so I can flick back to Live Feed as there is none, or go on TiBB and talk about it, because you're all negative bastards nowadays and put me to sleep anyway.

So I mean I would love to just watch more, the breaks - and there's ALOT of breaks, they come more frequently in this series - cut the show down to like 40 Minutes.

I'd like an hour and a half show - or even have a new show on 5* or via Red Button that we can press at the end of the credits of the HL show.

You could call it 'Big Brother's Little Bit More' and that could be like an extra 40 minutes of Highlights.

Do you have any idea how ******ing dull that would be to the majority of the viewers?

The ratings would drop to about 3 people - literally.

Yeah, they have to keep the main 1 hr HL show but have something more, whether it be on 5* or online.

Who would be the other two, apart from you of course?

why would 3x as much footage be dull? i thought you were a fan of BB?

people watch 4 or 5 hours live feed so why would they not watch 3 hours HLs?

you make no ****in sense at all
