Its been so much easier talking to Ben frow than jeff ford..I swear that man he would only reply when a letter went to Richard desmond
I just hope it comes off because we all know the 7/9pm TV slot was never going to work.

BB started online with luck if this works C5 will realise this core element needs to come back. it hasn't been the same since they axed the feed

Really hope that this is true, I have a lot of respect for this guy

he's by far the most down to earth person
With luck if we can show them online is getting a good reception next series
will have 24hr feed. I'm not even counting that 7/9pm farce because it didn't stand a chance against the super soaps.

You can record streaming video, but remember your download bandwidth charges.
I'll have a look round to see if I can find a FREE streaming recorder for you.

maybe more people will watch live feed because 7 - 9 is when all of the soaps or on

I'm not being funny - but I can't see it getting any more viewers than the television streaming.

It'll only be genuine hardcore fans watching it - if they're expecting a million viewers, then no.

I hope they've took into consideration that most people don't really care enough to go onto the website and watch it, like we do - so I just hope they're not holding out for two million odd hits.

Their web traffic must be pretty shoddy, they plug the website at every opportunity. I would guess that they just want to increase traffic- if that happens they are happy. You never know though with this lot...

[JohnnyBB]

if they can get 50k online that would be good! there all set for online streaming bastards should be giving us 24/7

I should think that they will give it the same amount of publicity that they gave to Live Feed on 5* namely: ZILCH.

Not like it'd cost extra - also, unless they plug it at every given chance on BOTS and the main show; it will inevitably fail.



Are you serious?

****ing hell, I love living in Ireland.

Unfortunately yes. Got to endure another dull few weeks of school where we don't do anything because no one gives a **** anymore and we're all just waiting for the summer hols to begin.

I'm so jealous of you right now

Noticed on DS someone mentioned C4 making a loss.

http://livefeeduk.blogspot.co.uk/
I put together all the stuff that's been gathered and most of this was sent to Jeff ford/and Ben frow.

On the C4 loss Unlike Channel 5 which basically runs on private money/money from adverts Channel 4 gets a certain amount of public money which makes it a target for papers like the Daily Mail.
If you notice the recent "scandals" on Channel 5 don't even make an impact apart from the Daily Star.

Channel 4 after the phone votes scandal the board that run the station decided ALL premium rate services had to be axed and phone votes like Bigbrother only could cover the costs NO profit to be made. So when it came to the feed that's why they only charged the insanely low price of 7.99 when most other BB's cost at least 24.99 pounds.

There is money to be made from this

Sorry this is NOT good enough. Some of us have to get up for work etc. Watching HM's sleep probably.

totally agree
I just hope if online does happen it works and finally some myths can be laid to rest. What he did say before if the 7/9pm worked he would add more hours we knew from the start it was a disaster if they see online proves okay
with luck next series they will do a proper feed like BBUSA and really try and make some money out of it.
