They were quite good last year until the insider was stopped and The Sun couldn't get the information.

i think its the price that ch4 are paying to keep the sun from publicising the live feed debate, because lets face it, whether we like the scum or not, a lot of people read it and if they did get behind the live feed protest / boycott it would badly damage ch4. i wouldnt put it past someone from the scum to have gone to ch4 saying that if they didnt have something to put in the paper about bb then they would have to go with the lf debate.

I was thinking the same...for some odd reason I can't vote on the Sun LF poll..it keeps telling me to allow cookies...which I do and reboot and re check my settings but still can't vote.

I could vote on the Heatworld and DS polls fine.

I don't understand why BB are publishing the noms results. I have read they are on the C4 website too....why do this? People watch BB to see the results - now they have no reason to watch tonights HL show at all!

Why are C4 purposely giving BB declining ratings....none of this makes sense. Have Endemol and C4 had a big falling out or something and C4 are dishing out some payback??

Tbh I don't want to believe C4 are trying to kill BB completely, but the longer this goes on the more it looks as if this is indeed their agenda.

The Sun seems to be the only paper featuring BB with any kind of significance and I think part of that is that C4 has to give them first chance at any news.

In fairness to the Sun , they have reported the live feed thing and davina's support for re-instating it.

The words 'fairness' and 'The Sun' should never been seen together in the same sentence!

The Sun should be renamed 'The Scum'!

That's all!

they also reported the supposed "death threat" emails, now try to find the story on their website, oddly it got pulled, maybe their open attack on the lf protesters (following ch4's line)had a little something to do with it, i seem to remember a number of years ago the same shitsheet blaming fans for something they hadnt done too, seems its a habbit.

a) We don't.
b) It was! Several years ago in fact.

we SHOULD complain to the peole who are sponsoring the show, lucozade, wonder if THEY are aware that they are paying for adverts that no one watches?
if they only look at channel fours own BULLSHIT fourms all they will see are the happy clappy posts that channel 4 allow, they will then think everyone loves the show,
maybe if THEY get flooded with emails complaining about the live feed issue and the drop in viewing figures that this has caused, THEY might put presure on ch4 to re start live feed,...just a thought

Dear BBBS, (name edited)

Thank you for your recent email regarding our Lucozade product and our sponsorship with the channel 4 television show Big Brother.

As always we at Lucozade Energy are sad to hear of any customer disappointment. However, in this instance we are unfortunately unable to influence Channel 4 on its programming structure, and therefore are unable to alter either the make-up of the Big brother show or how Channel 4 chooses to share its content with viewers.

Thank you for taking the time and trouble in contacting us.

Regards

Lucy

Consumer Relations

oh well, thanks for that....saved me an email
