I am going to try my hardest to get into it, I want it to be fab...I wont hold me breath tho...

If it's on live through night I probably will, if there's no live feed at all, I wont.

I've never been one for the HL show so if that's all that's on offer then I'll find it very difficult to get into.

I never really bothered with 'Live' before, only with BB2 and 3 where it was more interactive. After them it didn't hold much interest for me.

Considering I found the last 2 BB's (8 and 9) uninteresting I will give this year's a go. If it's good I may even audition for next year....hey it's going to be the last one.

I will give it a go, but if it's just the highlights show, then I probably won't even be able to get in to it.

I don't like being told who and what to like. I prefer to make up my own mind, and to do that you need more than the h/l's.

I'm going to give it a go - after the shambles last year I think they may make more of an effort but then I think I've said that for the last 2

I'll watch bits of it, but I can't imagine I'll be as interested this year as in previous years.

It's a bad move by C4, in my opinion!

*keeps hands firmly down*

im giving it a miss this year. i cant be bothered

It's always worth a look. They might have a good set of contestants this year. Don't forget that for every Nadia or Cameron year there is a Kate or Pete year.

if there is no live feed of and type and just an hour long highlights show i don't think i will bother! how are we meant to decide who we like if the show is heavily edited and manipulated?

Will deffo watch the launch show, and probably have a sneaky peep through the rest of it. Not very interested if there's no live feed though. Powers that be have killed it.

O/T Barolo - signed.

You have to watch the launch show - just to see if for once they've chosen a "normal" bunch

I'm a LF daytime viewer..only ever watched the HL show to catch up on any late night stuff I missed....so due to family/work commitments... watching every evening is going to be nigh on impossible.

I didn't watch CBB this year due to the lack of LF and will probably give this one a miss too.

I like to make up my own mind about the HM's -if BB expects me to spend my pennies voting it needs to reinstate LF.

Hiya Watty
I'll see the launch night but I'm away on holiday for a week on the Saturday so I'll miss the 1st week.

Trouble is you get hooked! First night I find fascinating and after that who can resist just having a peek to see how they're getting on?

I always get sucked in

I'll probably give it a miss. Channel 4 have screwed themselves with not providing live feed and messing about with it. Big Brither has been their flagship programme and nearly everything else they broadcast are American imports repeated a million times. Is it any wonder they're facing bankruptcy?

Me too ...I still feel like Launch Night is Christmas

No way, no way. I'll be there every night watching the highlights. No question. The only time I miss an eppy is if I'm out of the country.

I love BB. I get sooooooooo excited on Launch night and sit there judging them all and deciding who will entertain/annoy/amuse/fascinate me. Of course my first impressions don't always last. The introduction video's of the HM's are such fun to watch because they all make prats of themselves.

Ooh the anticipation! Roll on. I hope it's a good mix of people who like a practical joke, a good laugh, a bit of naked jacuzziness, light hearted banter and loads more. My least favourite housemates are moaners, quitters and lazy sods who are content to sit around all day in their dressing gown (wangers) or nip back to bed during the day...

Least favourite of all has to be the "I want to go home" brigade. Please oh please turf them out at the first hint of wanting/pretending to want to go. Give the place up to someone else who would enjoy the challenge.

One more thing. Can we have the votes set up so the quiet ones go early on? I'm not too interested in a slow burner or your under the radar housemates who wait until the 11th hour to suddenly become animated.

Actually I'd love to work on that show. I think I'd do a fab big brother

Any-who... to answer your question OP I'll be watching with or without the live feed. I just love it x

I say it every year and I still watch it

One more thing, I would love an immunity challenge introduced this year.

Oh and any quitters should not receive ANY airtime on BBLB or any other spin off show. Straight back to plebdom if you please.

I'll watch the launch night.....then I'll be hooked as usual, no matter how bad/good it is.

People who go on about leaving, should be shown the door. None of this I am leaving malarky and then staying.

Me too Troll, but genuinely didn't like last years show, I thought it was utter rubbish. Hope this year is better, God could it be any worse.

If they would just use the money they saved from closing the forums, they could reinstate live feed, simples

i'll watch the launch night then quietly bow out until there is a live feed so i can actualy find out about the hm's rather than be told about the hm's by a show i know cant be trusted to provide reality, if that means waiting till sky takes over or the ratings sink so low that even the imbeciles at ch4 realise what idiots they were to remove the live feed and restore it.

I am still gonna watch but I am disappointed about the red button.

I'll give it a go...but no red button means it will be pointless to me

me
It's a relief, actually. No more being tied to the telly on Friday nights..

I can't wait till it starts!!

Maybe I really am a saddo

I like watching the fist night and realizing a week later how wrong I was about a particular hm. The only time I stuck by my original assessment was with Kat. I couldn't bear her and her cookie jar on sight. Don't know what that says about me, but I just could not take to the woman.

I haven't read the whole thread and no doubt this has been repeated ad nauseum but without live feed, I just can't get "obsessive" about it So not phone votes from this sucker this year

IF there is NO live feed and only the HL show then the whole thing will be pointless, for all we know they could be working from a script and be going home every night,
lets face it with all the rows and threats of violence and racist "scares" in the last few shows
ch4 are terrified, they want to control every aspect of the show, I feel a farce coming on,.....
I said FARCE,....but, come to mention it ...poop PAAARP, ooer,

You say that now but I wonder whether, like all the rest of us, once you really like someone and really can't bear another HM, things will change.

I know what you're saying. But in truth, this year's Celeb BB, some nights I didn't even watch the highlights. That is UNHEARD OF for me. I am obsessive about BB. It's like OHG said, we've all seen how editing can make an incident look completely different to what actualy happened on HLs. So I find it impossible to really care, when I don't trust what I'm seeing

yup the whole POINT of the concept was that we get to SEE how a bunch of peeps interact when locked in a confined space together for weeks, if we cant see em ALL the time....whats the point? might as well put a bunch of actors in with a script,
