But it's silly because this "entertainment" show he's throwing out there is absolutely nothing without that live feed, it's just another show on television, and that's what is putting people off. If only he'd realise that and bring back the live feed, but then I genuinely don't believe any of them care about it or the fans, they just see it as another show as well. Shame really.

And I do agree with you, CBB8 and BB12 would've potentially been the best series ever had there been LF. Just goes to show how much it could improve the series if it was there.

Yeah I agree with you. He's seen the success of TOWIE etc. and he wants to make BB more like that and cater to the TOWIE audience but he needs to realise that the hardcore fans don't want that. We were happy with how BB was on Channel 4. It hasn't gained viewers on 5 either, the same people who watched it on 4 have followed it to Channel 5, he should be catering it to us not the TOWIE fans. No doubt some of the people from this CBB will get their own shows on 5 too like what happened with Amy Childs, Jedward and Kerry Katona. That's what I hate about CBB on Channel 5, it's like a platform to getting your own show and being in all of Desmond's magazines, it was never like that with Channel 4.

They just see it as another reality show, you're right. Not having live feed has damaged BBUK and there are lots of people who aren't watching it on 5 because it has no live feed. I'm not expecting the ratings to gain like a million if live feed is reinstated but I do think the ratings will go up, even if it's only slightly, it's still an improvement. The majority of BB fans want it back and they're not listening to us, it's sad. Like you said though I don't think any of them care about the fans or the show itself, they probably don't even watch it.

Yep it's such a pity we never had LF for them two. They were brilliant series' without it but with it they would have been even better. There's probably so much we've missed without LF which we'll never know about because they choose what goes into the 40 minute HL shows.

Stop judging us you monster.

I give the group the easiest task for this season, just to post, and half of the group haven't even tried despite being online for hours... It's a little disconcerting for myself and for those in the group that are putting in effort. (For those that have tried, well done).

We have so many mistakes. I only made one

When does the task end?

You're totally spot on there, couldn't agree more. He wants it to be a generic reality TV show instead of a special show the nation loved, Big Brother. He's making an absolutely wrong move, and a big mistake, but there's sadly little we can do

It's awful because there's so much we'll never get to see from CBB8/BB12 and even CBB9 now all because of no live feed, only those people working there with all the tapes and editing the highlights shows are fortunate enough to see any of it, but the fans never will.

Chuck where are you /inb4the4
