If there is no live feed I'm not watching, roll on June if there isn't.

I'm not expecting live feeds tbh.. feeds would be something they would want to advertise as it makes them money and hypes the show. Like Channel 5, no live feeds and remaining tight lipped.

A lot of countries don't geo-block their live feeds; guess we'll have to wait and see before experimenting with vpns, "unofficial" streams etc.

Free

FREE?

What the fruit?



Though due to it being free I expect lots of video advertising, I personally would prefer to pay a small amount and not see them.

Oh my. I may end up quite addicted to this if we are getting free live feeds! It's all sounding too good to be true at the minute. It's basically a back to basics Big Brother USA, except with Canadians. Plus, they can't have returning housemates!

I took from the press release that there's going to be "Glass House" style interactive stuff, which won't please the BB purists but I don't mind trying new things.

I have a feeling it'll just be like the BBUSA fan voting stuff. Like picking have-not foods and lame stuff like that. They may do more stuff in the line of the old school America's Choice thing from BB2/BB3.

As long as whatever interaction they're talking about has no impact on the game i'm not fussed.

Yes it is free live feed. Shocking in this day an age for a commercial broadcaster to be so generous, it sounds too good to be true.. but somehow, it is.

I strongly dislike this part.

Big Brother Canada promises Canadians the opportunity to vote for major decisions throughout the season. What if Canadians are given the chance to determine houseguests’ rewards and punishments? Imagine they have the opportunity to influence the food in the house? And who will fans choose if given the power to save a life or the final say in an eviction? Canadians will have their say, but as to how much will be revealed as the series unfolds.

It will probably be geoblocked, but you can get a VPN for about £5 to get past that.

Confirmation that the live streaming will be geo-blocked ("geo-gated" - that's a new one on me!)

Might be worth trying ibVPN, at least initially, they are cheap and that ibDNS thing sounds interesting.

I think it would be great if someone made a thread or even just a post in here detailing the best VPNs and how they work for us uninitiated.
