Cable may mean Telewest, although I'm a believer in Paul's thread. I'll keep the faith

lol, you cant blame anyone for being cynical about NTL CS giving their history!

But well done Paul, you stayed faithful and it seems NTl have come through

The lovely Debbie at NTL Customer Services just told me that it's listed from tonight... I shall wait with the proverbial fishhook in my gob.

Hmm, so thats two people from NTL CS who have confirmed it, maybe it is true - but it's NTL, so I'll wait and see.

But, fingers crossed.

Well I have not heard anything to say NTL will have a live feed this year. There will be red button stuff but that will more than likely just be games and voting.

I could have sworn I read a statement that confirmed it was only Sky that will have full streaming video again this year!!

Why does Freeview now have it. There is a stream where if you press red it brings you to channel 705 the stream. Now it got the test card saying CH4 LONDON but when e4 goes to breaks the breaks are then shown on this channel. Telewest now have it. And finally we are going to have it.

NTL Broadband + have 24/7 streaming for £3.99 but there is nothing on their website about the Digital Cable TV service having it.

Sky has a direct feed from the Big Brother house if you were quick and tuned it in! - it's currently broadcasting a E4 Test card saying "Big Brother Live follows shortly" with the Big Brother Eye.

NTL are only carrying the crappy games, although they flash up the BB eye when you change channels. I'm not optimistic.

Yes, I hope Paul gets the CS people fired if they are telling fibs.
Altho I doubt they will as TPTB probably sanctioned the lies.

You won't know for sure till 9 or 10pm.
The interactive stream isn't added to any platform till 10ish I don't think, so there's still time yet, although I don't know why they just don't give us a channel in the 900's on it like they did with the BBC a few years back.

I’m still not convinced – anymore updates??

Of course NTL will be having a live feed. It's called E4!
No joke, that has been said in past years by NTL Customer Service. I won't be surprised if that is the case again, NTL Interactive is non-existant.

I'm just waiting until Tuesday to get it through NTL Broadband Plus

Yeah I remember that. I mean I know they take us for granted but come on do they really thing that giving us the E4 feed will fool us into thinking we have the live feed?

What they did for the Olympics was great, even the golf and tennis had better than we have for BB,.

Well no streaming so far. I think you can get that CS bloke fired.

Just to mention Telewest have got it, press red and the screen comes up, first item Big Brother Live...watch BB Live 24/7....press that you get the warning message about content then it goes to the stream, at the moment the same as E4 but will be there when E4 shows their usual stuff.

Give it a while to see, maybe they are adding it. If not, see what the Freeview people get, then maybe get a box for that.

Yep that's the stupid thing about freeview, if they'd made it ok to work with out having to spend over 100 quid getting a new aerial they might have had more takers.

Well I phoned up CS earlier today and the man said there WON'T BE any 24 hour feed - that bloke lied to me yesterday. I said why does everyone else get to have a feed and not NTL... he said 'uh, I dunno'. Helpful!
