I love the way Furst has been misquoted to suit a poster's agenda. He never said anything about scripting because that would be nonsensical and Furst is a clever man.
The whole being able to watch 24 hours thing was novel at first, then most people stopped bothering with it and it made sense to concentrate resources elsewhere. The main show is the core part of the product and if you're not interested in that I don't see any reason at all why C5 would be interested in bending over backwards to accommodate you.
Anyway, 2.33 million viewers last night. That's a terrific rating up against Sherlock and the movie premiere of Bad Teacher amongst other big competition. Plenty of people are enjoying what C5 are offering. Some people just can't let go of the past, that's the problem. But if anything I find CBB has been more enjoyable on Five than it was on Four.
The return of live feed would be welcome for the civilian series. But I'm not massively bothered if they don't, I'll still tune in to the highlights as I would if it was there anyway.
