Big Brother live streaming on LCN 305 has ceased. FilmFour (LCN 31)
is now showing preview stuff.

Does that mean there is now no BB live most of the day on freeview? If that
is the case, its not very nice of C4 to interrupt a series that is already
running. Why didn't they launch Film 4 after BB had finished? Cant be far
off done now can it? Does anyone know when BB finishes? I dont actually
watch it, but to break off from live coverage part way through seems a bit
mean on the people who do watch it, and I think its quite an insult to the
BB viewers, if that is what they have done. I suppose the live coverage
will continue on Sky, but not everyone has Sky.

When does BB end?

If they have cut Big Brother live streaming on Freeview early, that must
suggest that they are stuck for bandwidth? Presumably that means Big
Brother wont be streamed live on freeview next year? Or do Channel 4 know
something we dont? Is this series of Big Brother the last one ever?

Sadly they will find something worse; Z-list celebrity paint watching,
Footballer's (master) Mind, FA University Challenge(d).

I was hoping an on-screen suicide or homicide might finish the franchise
off.

Today is day 61 out of 91. 4 weeks and 2 days to go.

E4 shows the live stream for about 14 hours a day, mainly when most
housemates and most normal humans are asleep.

The live stream can be viewed online by anyone with the right
computer and connection. This costs a small amount of money.

Yeah, thats what they all say.

but to break off from live coverage part way through seems a bit

Its for their own good.

and I think its quite an insult to the
BB viewers, if that is what they have done.


IIRC viewing figures for this year's BB are down big style anyway.

What do you care? You don't watch it.
