was testing on Sky yesterday, just thought i'd say

was testing on sky, this early - are you sure?. what were the test frequencies

Yeah i'm sure.

Frequencies, i haven't got a clue

It used the Beatles names as the housemates names , had full screen options, and info pages that wern't accessable yet, i have spoken to other people that saw it also

COOL, sadly I'm missin the first week of BB,

Because of hiloday?

They were testing on E4 Interactive, and like Boozer said they were using the names of Beatles members for the housemates.

The interface was grey, and there were options such as 'Vote Ringo'.

I'm getting excited already!

Are they testing on C4 ( i got a FTV card ha ha ha ha ha ha) or on E4 Eire

Thanks

I stil have a FTV card ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha


Ok i think i will stop now

ha

sorry

Unsure, You'll know if they're testing because it will say 'TESTC4' (or 'C4TEST', I can't remember) on E4 Interactive. I didn't see anything on C4 though.

Telewest will have BB interactive via C4 so i don't see why Sky won't

Anyone know if ntl will have interactive on e4/ch4....?

As BB is live on E4 for around 20 hours a day, is there any point in having interactive as well ?

Unless you're desperate to play Big Brother Bingo I can't see the point.............

Different cameras are in different rooms, you can switch between them to ensure you don't miss anything. Also they have highlights of bits you might have missed, and allow you to vote with your remote.

Not so pointless, eh?

HAving only had digital for less than a year i'll enjoy being able to watch when i want to!

Was the interactive stuff last year as poor as some people say?

It wasn't too good last year, the layout was dreadful and you couldn't go full screen on the different feeds.

I hope it's improved this year!

Get ready to kiss your life goodbye for nine weeks - unless BB5 is like BB4, in that case carry on as usual!!!

I know last year i had to watch it on crappy analogue which didn't start till 4pm, and don't get me started on 4braodband, what a waste of a fiver that was!

I wasn't too fussed about missing any of BB4 as you all know why, but when BB3 was on it was hell

What do you think the chances are of the Offical Big Brother site having FREE feeds this time?

When they charged for them it was a fiasco, so I hope they've reconsidered.

I cant see them being free

The interactive menu on E4 says "BB5 Competition" now, and when I press select, it asked a question about housemates I never heard of

That'll be them testing, maybe they're preparing early so that we can vote housemates in?

I hope not.

I hope not too

screen shots please

how many days are they left

56 days. Can't wait!
