There’s been ‘no decision’ over how much live feed Big Brother 2014 will see.


The constant live stream from the house was ditched when Channel 5 took over the format back in 2011, much to the outrage of pretty much everyone who loves the show.

Petitions were signed and complaints were made but bosses refused to budge, with producers previously blaming the decision on the cost.

The more recent series however have seen more live streaming on eviction nights and after Bit On The Side which has attracted audiences of up to a million viewers.

As it stands, a representative for Channel 5 has commented that there is as yet no decision about the this year’s final format, including live streaming.

At least, no decision that’s been made public.



Big Brother narrator Marcus Bentley last year suggested that there would be more live feed on offer after impressive ratings.

He said: “Last year Channel 5 broadcast streaming after evictions these gained phenomenal viewing figures and I would imagine Channel 5 would like to build on that success.”

Unfortunately the decision to cut back on the live feed may also be down to the editing that would be needed.

TV watchdog Ofcom gave Channel 5 another slap on the wrist just this week for failing to appropriately edit just the one hour highlights for day time viewing.

5 people wrote to complain over discussions of a sexual nature and innuendos that had aired at 11AM on a Sunday.

Big Brother 2014 is expected to start on Channel 5 next month.
