Why am I up so late!!! Because I am one angry bananarama tonight: devil: The E4 coverage is a dogs dinner of a mess.

The almost constant showing of a "Hot topic" banner and text messages occupiying insanely a quarter of the screen. Add to that the E4 logo and the BB logo and the red dot. The whole thing is utterly distracting and the idea must have been thaught up by a mad dog with a double dose of rabies.

Has this rant made me feel better.....Nope it aint.

[James]

The logos and the red dot are ok but I agree about the banner. It takes up too much of the screen and you don't necessarily want to read those opinions while your watching anyway.

What's more it makes it more difficult for me to take screenshots!

[bananarama]

I had to do it. I have e-mailed BB to complain. The next thing is to organize a protest march to Downing St and raise the matter in parliament and if that fails the Queen will just have to be the next stage followed by the house of Lords and as a last resort a letter to Graham Norton.........:xyxwav e:

Quite right bananarama! I even spent 50p on two texts to see if they really work and not just a dupe to sway the public on who to vote out!!!

And surprise surprise, I waited and waited and waited and waited............. DRAW your own conclusions!!!!!

My friend text last night and her message has only just gone by on the screen!!!

[Maggie]

I see this as milking it for as much money as they can make as usual, if they put the topic and details on the same line as the text, as others do it would be much smaller, which would at least be a bit better, come E4 get your act together

I'm glad it's not just me who is finding this extremely irritating.

[Maggie]

The interactive feeds are at least better than last year, when we were shown highlights of thier choosing, but no where near as good as BB2, you can't even select and make full screen grrrrrrrrr

CAN WE PLEASE GO BACK TO THE BIG BROTHER 2 FORMAT, E4, WHY KEEP MESSING IT UP

[Mairi]

Maggie, I LOVE your new signature.

[Maggie]

Thanks Mairi, I love the Taurus Bull, could'nt resist it

The problem with this banner is that you can't stop yourself from reading all the messages. I was thinking about covering that part of the screen with a piece of card. It is so irratating and I was so looking forward to the E4 coverage.

Totally agree, last night i spent most of the night reading those messages and not even looking at what the housemates were doing I just want them to go

[Maggie]

MONEY, MONEY, MONEY is what it's all about

[bananarama]

It can't do any harm to e-mail Ch4 from their web page and complain bitterly. In another forum such a campaigne is underway......Joking apart please let's try and stop this screen contamination before it sets in for the whole 9 weeks.

The text stuff should surely be on E4 intaractive ond not the main channel converted to interactive. This is pure money making greed at the expence of the viewers enjoyment. It will do them no good in the long run me thinks I am almost tempted to stop watching. Yes. I am that angry.

[steve_o]

I agree the band with the text messages on is to big, it does cover half the screen. It does put me off watching e4 and the interactive is a mess as well, what happened to the separate screens, and this messing about with the sound pressing coloured buttons is rubbish. Why can't they leave things as they were like bb2, that was the best interactive yet. Hope they take notice and listen, we want to see the housemates NOT text messages, you greedy bunch of channel 4 money grabbers.

[steve_o]

Great it's gone now all they have to do is sort out the interactive.

[milly]

i agree with you all,it's absolutely awful

It only goes for a minute then reappears again

[bananarama]

Noooo it hasn't gone it's just hidingJust had a 20 min stint of it......Can't take much more....

[BusyBee]

When will they realise - the viewers dont want to be mucked around, they want to see the action and not have to put up with endless Money making ideas they come up with.

We will soon be hearing how much money they are making and they will be proud of it - they should be ashamed.

[kaphc]

They had something similar on IACGMOOH2 but smaller and less obtrusive. I didn't mind that but I think the one on E4 is horrible!

[sweetlittlesara]

It doesnt actually bother me that much and i find it interesting to read, wondering how much cencorship bb producers have put on them to portray different things..
