The amount of soundcuts on the livefeed has really spoiled IAC for me.

There's not been one decent conversation yet. They have a cheek to say at the beginning of the show that there might be strong language. 'Strong' - are they having a laugh, there's no language.

I'd complain only it wouldn't make a difference.

Anyone else finding that it's ruining the show for them?

Most of the time when they say its cut for legal reasons its a pile of bull.
They dont put the juicy stuff out cos they wanna save it for the ITV1 show just like when they come back from a trial or with the chest.

It's fecking sh*t!

Has Fran left?

I heard a brief clip of Joe and Janet saying how someone made them laugh but they had a lot to deal with?

I heard Sophie and Nancy saying how great it was that Sophie had her trial on Saturday as she was bound to be front of the NOTW, and how they both would spend the day washing each other in the pool for more headlines, then the picture and sound went off.

Bloody hell - 60 seconds of sound...cut....another 60 seconds.....cut.

And what about those crickets and jungle noises in-between, anyone else getting a headache?

Between that and Animal Instinct, I'm Fit texts and now bloody Boomerang.

Well if Fran HAS left thatll be the reason theyve cut the sound so much. So we dont get to find out before its announced officially.

They cut the sound for langauge at night so they can replay the feed during the day. This is lazy broadcasting by ITV IMO.

They also seem to cut the sound when they don't want anything to get out eg. Trial Results/any other news. Again pethetic, if we here the results of the trial ITV we aren't not going to watch the main ITV show, however if you keep cutting the interesting things no-one is going to watch the live feed which will lower the interest in the show.

Sort it out! Its embarrasing to watch at the minute.. why provide a live feed if all you are doing is cutting it? Don't bother in future if you can't do it properly - every other channel seems to manage at putting out a half-decent stream.

Bring in Endemol!

I am sick to death of them stopping the feed for hours this weekend to keep replaying the soaps they have already replayed twice before in the past 24 hours.

If they had to do this, why couldn't they have had the good sense to have the feed available via the red button. This sure makes BB etc look very advanced.

I virtually stopped watching the live feed - it's really becoming tedious. Isn't there a livestream somewhere on the internet? I have looked for it but couldn't find one - but I did find this forum though - hurrah!

Internet and Red buttons, now there's an idea. ITV do you read the forums? Please get a reality check, we are in the 21st bloody century.

At last the feed is back. Can't hear any drama queens in the background, nor can I see a body under a pile of blankets. Rats must have eaten her or she has sunk in the quicksand.

But for some reason, the emus are one of the things they seem determined not to show. Almost always, when someone goes to do things with the emus, we get the "legal reasons" screen.

It's very odd. In many cases, they're not even saving things for the ITV1 show.

They are catching eels or something again to eat, so I guess there are not many stars from this trial again.

Oooooh it sounds like she walked or someone else did. Sheila just said it's strange that cot being empty and there will be another one empty tomorrow.

the whole concepts of IAC and Big Brother, BB especially are really good fantastic stuff, but i keep saying the only people watching it are the editors and everyone behind the cameras. Imagine how great BB would be if they never cut stuff out, it would then be genuine reality TV. Hell even when someone talks about a film or something they cut it out on IAC for fear of libel etc..

i think at least BB live feed do seem to cut out with some sense, usually when they talk about other people, but IAC is a joke, i stopped watching live feeds for some time now. i don't care if the 9PM show is edited, at least i'm being entertained, so i'm sticking with just that. live feed is a gimmick, don't watch it if you're finding it boring, its like going through duff footage, if they dont use it on the main show, then it aint worth the time.
