At least it's a step in the right direction

It's still in JohnnyBB's post quoting you

[oathbreaker]

I have no idea what's going on had a reply from the chap 4 days ago asked me to keep its contents quiet until C5 informed the press and I know a few others had the same reply.

how this is going to work no idea because Jeff ford said last year one of the key issues with no overnight feed was the fact C5 was in contract with the Casino people and 5* was under lease with overnight adverts.5* was the channel mentioned in the email

[newsbb]

id love this tbh.

[oathbreaker]

5* is such an underused Channel I doubt a 24hr feed will ever return. But giving people enough to at least see the various sides of HM's not just from a selective h/l show or very short vids via the website will help restore a connection between HM's and supporters and should Generate a lot more debate on the forums about houselife and interactions.

oath can you show us the email? i dont think ben.frow@channel5.com is even a real email.

Try not to spam guys, he's a busy man, if we annoy him, he'll be less inclined to listen. happybbfan on DS emailed him a few days ago and I emailed him this afternoon, there's more chance of a reply if you leave it at a slow, steady stream of requests than if we forum lobby. Send any further e-mails to channel 5, not Ben.

I'm referring to the requests for Ben's email address since. TIBB has a habbit of not thinking these through and bombarding people till their fed up of hearing about it and in no mood to sympathise with us. Jeff Ford used to reply personally to our questions about it, people cottoned on here and within weeks we were all being forwarded to some C5 bod because of people here all jumping on the band wagon, we've given him our opinion, now let's wait and see what he says.

[Patrick]

Would the email be fact though? I mean why would anyone go to the effort of obtaining a Channel 5 styled email - just to take our complaints?

[Tregard]

What is this fellow's job anyway, is he head of all programming?

Agree totally.
only 1 email I sent off got the reply and wont trouble the guy again.
He does seem very nice and replied quickly.

I just wonder if the person who posted on DS had the same message about keeping quiet until they inform the press of the setup?

its the main reason I didn't publish his email on Twitter because he did ask not to publish the email or its content and I didn't want to piss him off.

[armand.kay]

Even the producers/endemol of bb want live feed so I'm sure if this change will cause them to push the idea.

"Keep it to yourself"

You've blown his cover man!

'but keep it to yourself for now!'

not sure if I believe this.

[oathbreaker]

that link is off my twitter page.Im totally confused why he said that because then others started to get emails and print what they had been told.

no, others just jumped on the bandwagon and fake emails from Frow.

[Vanessa]

Omg! Live feed!

Number of reasons
1. The dodgy legal ground around making public private communications without (proper) public interest
2. Wanting to have a press release out rather than leave everyone to speculate
3. He was telling those who cared enough to ask in confidence
