Makes you wonder, are they really in the house and this is well-scripted and acted for the live feed?

12 out of 14 housemates have some sort of acting experience. There's a suspicious shortage of 'spare' footage - they just show bits of the h/l shows on Farcebook and YT. I do think they're in the house...but I don't think BB is the show it once was and I think most viewers would be shocked if they could see what was actually going on in there.

Ratings for BB still going down.
Big Brother: 1.4m

Big Brother's Bit On The Side: 146k Doing pretty badly too.

146K for BBBOTS? Surely that can't be right

Yeah, *5 is a different channel (like their equivalent of e4), but even so, that's exceptionally poor And proof that less and less people care, less than a week into this series.

5* is a C5 subsidiary channel. Sometimes BBOTS is on C5 and sometimes on 5*

The more I see of the show, the more I'm convinced it isnt real.

There isnt a live feed because there simply cannot be a live feed any more.

Those people are not behaving 'naturally' (naturaly behaviour never truly happens in the BB house, but this is different) , they are all playing parts.

Last nights highlights was just so false , it was more like a parody of BB housemates I was watching, rather than the real show.

The 'impromptu' naked conga as ratings slipped to a new low yesterday is all I needed to convince me, I even posted yesterday they would do something like that very soon.

Scripted? Probably not

Full of people given a BB sterotype to play up to by production? Almost certainly.

How have the ratings been for this in the past, I haven't paid much attention TBH as I've never watched it.

You wouldn't think so would you? Yet there are people out there <-----------saying the ratings are 'steady'! WTF are they on & who are they trying to convince?

When 1,4 million viewers is spun as a Good thing....
lets be frank BB needs 2 million CBB needed 3 milllion
those last few days of CBB the show was slipping badly the finale proved people gaveup.
six million tuned into the launch thats six million people took the time to watch channel 5 the job was to make as many of those people stick around and they failed.

They had a fantastic opportunity for it to succeed, people were hungry for a new start. They've stuffed up big time.

If it's true that 12 out of the 14 have some background in acting, then most probably view their time in the house as one giant audition, the production team wouldn't have needed to say a word, just entering the house and finding Pamela in there would have been enough to tell them whats expected of them

When a show has a feel of being Midseries and its only been on less than a week..
According to Tweets.All talk of live feed is 'dead'.
Nikki from Bigbrothersbitontheradio is doing BB on friday? and hes been told apparently no talk of the feed.

I can see why some people want to try and make the best of the situation but theres no way in the current state you can form Opinions about these people as for wasting money for voting in an Eviction..Fans are seeing what Channel 5 and Endemol want to share nothing else.

The Daily Express has gone strangely silent. Last week there were features on Jedward, reviews on the show etc. This week, apart from a glancing reference to Pamela, there is zilch...silence...not a mention. What is happening?

Glad I'm not the only one who thought that naked conga was a bit too convenient and contrived

This particular regular series is fast slipping away and 5 already resorting to desperate measures to maintain interest

Live feed is a 'dead subject' to them now and I think that may just have sealed their epitaph

If they see a Decline in numbers they normally drop a story.
LOL..How insane did it look the Daily express running stories on Hm's when most of the time that behaviour is berated on the front page.

have you seen the Daily star the last few days? all CBB related stories its like BB12 isnt even on.

Well, the live feed subject may be "dead" for them but it's still up to us to keep pushing it, I'm not giving up.

Who says it's dead? It's alive and kicking - far more so than the actual program is

channel 5 say the live feed subject is dead yet big brother 12 will end up dead as a dodo
their policy of total denial is ludicrous
it looks like even the daily star has given up on bb12 ,they are still running celebrity big brother stories
