I thought they would put some LF on the website :/

[Jack_]

Not some of y'all shading the best reality TV spin-off show that is BOTS

[Creggle]

Not had a chance to fall asleep while watching Ashleigh yet, why no live feed.

[Cal.]

I thought everybody was talking about 10 hours per week?

[zakman440]

they really should increase the live feed, especially if viewers are supposed to make a judgement to influence the show.

[Jamesy]

They need BOTS but I think they need to freshen it up a bit and possibly change the name of the show. It's mostly pointless these days. They summarise the days events.. at the end of the day, usually repeating what 90% of viewers will have seen on Facebook/Twitter/YouTube prior to the episode. Why not show stuff that hasn't been put online all day?! Then you get a knock off Big Mouth with the same audience members we've seen for 3 years.

I don't mind BOTS but it is getting rather stale now. I know C5 don't splash out the cash as much but just one year of extra money to revamp the spin off show would work off very well.

Regarding live feed, they can easily get an online feed (didn't they do it last year and it was a massive hit?!). Even 2-5 hours a night would be amazing at this moment in time.

[Gstar]

can you edit the thread title please

So the only BB in the world to not have live feed.

The whole draw of the show is isolation and being watched 24/7 are they on crack?

BBUK has gone from ground breaking to just another tv show.

This was the perfect time to bring back live feed it ties in with the whole theme, it could have been relaunched but 10 hours over 2 months?

In 2 months i'll probably spend more time taking a dump than having access to live feed.

I don't think BB Australia has had live feed since it returned in 2012.

yea AU doesnt have it either since they been back. i watch UK, AU, US & CA and only US & CA have it. so for me thats 2 out of 5 counting the CBBUK version as well. idk about the other ones that are around.

[Marsh.]

How long do you spend ****ting?

[Sophiee]

at least it's better than nothing...

[Alf]

I miss those bird noises.

[Gillian-73]

At least they could have done it online again like last year for a few hours a night! I really thought they would have too.

[Beso]

they have only done live feed when they have a twist anyway, plus we don't want live feed until we get more "normal" housemates or id be smashing about 4 telly's a series.

It’s official Live feed has officially bit the bullet and will not be returning for the rest of this year, It was promised that live feed would be back if only a small amount.

Live feed has become a thorn in the side of Channel 5 since it Moved from the good old day’s on Channel 4, but it’s clear to see that C5 wanted a new direction away from Big Brother.

Richard Desmond had always been the driving force with bringing Big Brother to Channel 5 and now that he’s left it’s clear to see Big Brother’s future has become the Titanic of programs.

At the beginning of this year director of programmes Ben Frow promised 10 hours in total we have had only 1 hour the entire series.

Pftttt They only want us seeing what they want us to see

[Samm]

After BOTS ends on C5, they should have live feed from 0:00 AM - 6:00 AM that's at least the amount I would want

[Rob!]

They've cancelled it?! Didn't it get over a million?!

[Sophiee]

I stopped caring about live feed long ago this series anyway, it hasn't been good enough to warrant it.

[Jamesy]

This was near enough confirmed anyway. The fact we're on week 6 with nothing since week one that pretty much already gives away they had no plans for live feed.

I still think for BB16 (if it happens) they need to bring back an online live feed that people can pay for a season pass to view. It works for other Big Brothers and even worked for the UK show on C4 so they have no excuse to try that out really. Or get a nightly live feed on 5*.

[Ramsay]

Isn't it the only Big Brother in the whole world that doesn't do live feed?
They are trying to make it a TOWIE/ Geordie Shore hybrid and without live feed they can edit it as much as they want.

[billy123]

I would never even consider voting without livefeed, I want to make my own mind up about housemates not have some cheap crappy narrative forced upon me by their amateurish production team.

You realize the majority of the production team are the same people who were on the Channel 4 series... they just followed it over and do what they're told to do by Endemol.

They really aren't just about all of them have moved on to better things. They dont even employ most of the production team anymore they just use freelance staff for the duration of the run.
Even the head director producer Alex Scott is freelance they hire him from MercianMedia Most of the others are pretty much kids just finding their feet in the industry.

Your notion that its the same team is pretty cute but im afraid its not true.
