1. Can we this forum be opened for 24hrs?
2. Why do they not include all the housemates in the Highlight show? Letoya, calista, nathan and John seem to be missing some times.
3. Also can the show air in CH4 instead most of us dont have digital telly.

Apart from all that the show is really good Thumbs Up

Why no internet streaming? Frown

I dunno if that is anything to do with the C4CE but thought I'd ask anyway...

There are more than 3 or 4 people in that house


Why not give them all equal airtime.. in the HL's and Live streaming as well?

that way you may actually be able to transmit something other than tweeting birds.. and it gives a balanced view of all HM's not just the shows chosen ones... and it can't be because only those 3 or 4 have something more interesting to say than the others.. most of the time they are ALL talking drivel Big Grin


and when the sleb Hijacker is in the house why can't we see them in a box in the corner of the screen when they are interacting with the HM's during the live streaming... you do it for the HL show.. it would add to what is going on if we can see their facial expressions. so we are 'in' on things as well.. and would be more interesting viewing than just hearing a faceless voice..


that's all

for now.. Razz

BRING BACK INTERNET STREAMING AND BRING IT BACK NOW!!!!

Yup your decision to can internet streaming for better internet features failed.

You should be catering for all.

What happened to the online voting which mysteriously disappeared after the nominations were announced.

'No contact with the outside world' is one of the fundemental rules of Big Brother - why did Victor get told what his mum said?

Also why create drama (Victor & Jade) when it wasn't needed?

Thanks


No Internet Live Stream = Viewer Lost

Yes.

I think you should put some more drama into the house. Make it harder on them, they are getting an easy ride at the moment.

The thing with Victor and Jade was good, but not as good as it could have been.

Also - why not put everyone up for eviction one week?

The storyline at the moment in the house is great. Heres hoping Victor isn't voted out - as the house could be become very boring if he is.

russel brand was brilliant but I fear some of the other hijackers lack any imagination or spontenaity in either coming up with tasks or conversing with HM's. If it is true they will have someone from Hollyoaks I find that very disappointing. Alan Cumming was a real low point and too well meaning, bb is not about being well meaning. Shame Russell should have had the whole gig.

Agree with those who are a bit suspicious of the editing. If the Aratas, Jade, Amy and Jeremy were removed from the highlights we would be looking at a blank screen. If the others are doing so little of interest, maybe they need stirring up a bit?

Good choice of celebrities so far. (Though not a Peaches Geldof fan. Mad)

Shame about today's eviction though really - it is between three interesting, high-profile HM's. There is a real danger that another one will be evicted next, and we will end up with a residue of Susie's and no Makosi's.

yes I think that there should be less manipulation of interesting hm's over the dull ones. VIctor is sure to go after Jade seeing what he says about her. But what he said is what many of us believe yet she will come out smelling sweet and he will be booed tonight.

A couple of points

1/ Why are all the so called celebs the same old faces..Matt Lucas etc..they are totally overexposed in the media

2/ Anyone over 30 has zero interest in this year's BB because most of the contestents are young enough to be their kids, is that going to work well with the sponsor of this show

3/ Why once again is there no people from either Ireland or Wales taking part, with the usual suspects from London and the South East

4/ Get someone who actually knows about running a Bully Board to run this forums, when it takes up to 15 minutes to post something, most people will not bother a second time...

This is supposed to be the 21st century? right?

Hi Guys,

Thanks so much for taking the time to contribute to the forum and for watching the show. I hope you are enjoying it! It has been a busy first week but I think our Celebrity Hijackers have done a great job in taking over the weird and wonderful world of Big Brother and making it their own.

I’m sorry to hear that some of you have missed being able to watch events in the house online. Unfortunately, when we came to redesign the Big Brother website we weren’t able technically to incorporate live streaming into our lovely new video player. Hopefully this is something we can remedy in the future.

Many of you have also have lots of thoughts and opinions on the celebrities who have taken their turn hijacking the house. We have noted your thoughts and I hope that by the time the series comes to an end (and we have crowned our winner) some of your favourite famous faces have taken their turn.

A number of you have also been wondering why some of the housemates don’t always feature in some of the nightly shows. The Big Brother producers have a tough job squeezing 24 hours into a one hour show each day – especially when our Hijackers are on board. We always make sure that each show contains the main events of the day – all the most important stuff. So, if one of the housemates has a quiet day, it might be the case that you don’t see as much of them as some of the others.

Off now for the first live eviction night – please keep the posts coming and I will be back here next week

David

Hi David thanks for your answers

However you didn't answer my questions in part

1/ Why do the so called Celebs once again have a London and the South East Basis

2/ Are you seriously telling me that no one from Ireland or Wales with talent and the age group you were looking for didn't apply for this series?

Just a thought

The celeb hijackers must read this forum because they are picking on the ones we are talking about the most now if they picked on the ones that are not talked about maybe it would get more interesting Big Grin

That's probably true and they probably also have the secret handshake which allows them to access the forum straight away, when us mere mortals can take up to 10 minutes to get on here!

Well David, why ask for questions or comments if you obviously never read them. Only one poster mentioned actually liking the show this season and your words answered nothing. Your inability to understand your audience explains the viewing figure and forum number drop.

I agree bakagain

Methinks David's comments came from the PR department

After last year's bad news headlines it seems that Channel 4 are playing it safe

Hence terrible audience figures and basically zero media interest....
