We can access the show on Channel 5 - that's it. No 5*; we can see the website but not the clips. The only way to see the other stuff is if some kind soul uploads it on Youtube. And no voting - I don't vote anyway, so that's grand.

They block the video content on the website as they don't have the rights to broadcast Big Brother in Ireland, but you can get Channel 5 on Freeview and Freesat/Sky other channels over here.

They are Channel 5.
Only those subscribed to Sky or have Freeview can get C5 and because I don't have Sky I can't watch so I use a website that carries it.
Due to licencing restrictions C5 do not allow anyone from outside the UK view videos or the live feed.

Ahh right I get - its about the money or the absence of the same.

For some reason I had interpreted the they as Irish authorities rather than Channel 5

Patsy, I've a link for the live feed that I use each night in Cork, if you want me to send it to you?

She is a disgrace and has let the side down, and I mean for women rather than the good folks of Ireland. Actually if I was her family I would want her out and home ASAP. Whenever she goes it will be rough but on finals night the bigger audience can be savage.

I watch on youtube but yeah even if I could vote I wouldn't bother.
Of the Irish who can vote or live in the UK I don't imagine there will be a block vote

since my blunder has brought up Helen,..
Contrast how Hazel has been vilified in comparison to the way Helen's infidelity with Paul was glossed over or Preston and Chantelle's romance was cooed over.

But then Channel 5 are running more of a low rent pantomime joke shop operation and I should stop taking these things seriously. It would please me immensely if Gina left before Hazel, that's all.

I'm Irish also like the other posters and Hazel is hated, for many reasons I might add......for stalking Daley.....for coming across as cold and hard.....for lying to the house about what happened with Daley.....for lying about the cucumber in the eye episode.
That will do for now.

Hi, can I have it too. I have a link for the Live Feed but sometimes it's the following morning before it shows up.

Helen! Classic!

So memorable the op doesn't have a clue who he is talking about, just that she's Irish.

Good grief. Any more? Its like a scene from Spartacus (or Life of Brian). Suddenly everyone is Irish.

I don't think she's any worse than the rest of them really
She is not a guiding light of morality perhaps but not that monstrous either

Her exit will be a bit unpleasant for sure but after that I think it'll die down and she'll get plenty of positive press coverage.

Worst case scenario she doesn't have to live in the UK and she can continue her fairly successful career in Ireland

Oh dear Looks like you don't have C5 either and just believe what you read here because none of what you posted is true. Just a very biased opinion that popped into your little head.

I can get 5* on my freeview (saor view) box. Also available on Sky! But no, we can't vote, can't see the website or even view the clips on facebook! We used to until this year!

Yes. The terms and conditions of the forum allow you to hold and express such an opinion, and I respect that, as I'm required to.

Does seem a bit silly to base it entirely on fantasy though?
