Re: Big Brother returns on Channel 5

Fair enough but was just giving the point of the what you get with live feed and what you get with the highlights and how much ends up on the cutting floor

I think it was much the same for BB2, although there may also have been some live coverage on e4 as well that year. When they began doing 24-hour live feeds it was available to purchase through Real Player.

It's an interesting question though - I can't remember if that was BB 1, 2 or 3 when live internet feeding began. I don't think it was BB1, but on the other hand the news about Nasty Nick was all over the place very quickly the day it happened.

I think the live feed is what slowly choked the format though, more so than anything else. After everyone realised that, for most of the time, there was nothing worth seeing, it became more and more imperative to ramp up the conflict and the antics in the house to try to ensure there was normally something going on.
Series 2 had the red button on E4 and 24 hour feed, with different cameras to choose from. Also most of the daytime was a live feed to the house on E4... It was great.

She wouldn't host it regardless but C5 are doing the upmost minimum for the show (saving the money for more US imports, clever) so whatever it was, it'll be gone.

Thanks the bombers will be able to pinpoint it more easily.

I think from what I have heard you will all be wanting to watch reruns of the old C4 shows.
