I hope the word 'imminent' haunts Rylan forever.

I literally knew that this was coming the moment they removed it from the website. Utterly ridiculous - they've gone from saying "social media is the way forward" to now basically admitting defeat. Like, what was the point in even saying that if they knew it was destined to fail? It's just moronic that they haven't even tried live streaming - it would give them more benefits than the Twitter feed ever did.

They should focus on making the Website a lot better IMO if they're going to remove the social media ****, it'd be so much more popular/worth visiting if they had very frequent and lengthy Video updates, and not just stuff that we'll see later anyways on the Highlight show.

I mean, what's the reason to go on it really? Especially when you're on Forums/Twitter and the news is on all there anyways.

Who knew just how much technology would develop back in 2000, eh?

Back then we thought it was so unreal we could watch these people living in a house 24/7 on this thing called the internet.

Now, we can watch the show whilst taking pictures of ourselves with funny faces.

It's extremely popular with the teenagers, people at school are on it all time.

But then again not many look at accounts for TV shows and stuff.

But I'd be here for Snapchat, I'd look at all the time.

The show itself will be bloody snapchat soon.

Or Big Brother broadcast direct from Rylan's twitter feed.

Of course they could, they have so many options open to them for a live feed to be implemented. But, this is Channel 5, so of course they're not going to take any of them.

i mean there isn't really any excuses for removing the twitter feed, there's people monitoring the housemates all the time right? so posting the occasional tweet while watching them adds nothing to costs.

that being said i don't think i ever looked at that page so oh well

They just cba, that's all it comes down to

They couldn't be bothered when they actually manned it, posting sporadic, meaningless tweets and then signing off at midnight. The fact they've now ditched it completely just speaks volumes

I hate that the majority of TiBB could literally do a better job of producing Big Brother than the people in charge od the programme.

How are we going to find out if someone's been ejected now if we can't check the tweets of the day to see if they've been mentioned?!

Rylan will tell us that news is imminent and then three hours later he'll appear on This Morning to tell us he has an exclusive that a housemate has been ejected and that we'll be told 'everything' soon and then on the highlights show Marcus will scream 'TOMORROW!' and we'll have to wait another 24 hours before we find out who left

They'll probs just post updates on the main account. They cancelled the bots Twitter a few years ago and just tweeted along with the main account instead

Eh?

The BOTS account was running until they changed it for Rylan's show a couple of months ago and now they've made a new one.

It wasn't running. The last tweet was from about 2012 and it was put on private
