Well it seems us Cable subscribers are going to get a decent shake this time around, especially me being on Telewest and getting two live video feeds. Feel sorry for NTL subscribers only getting one. Just hope this is the first of many decent interactive applications on Cable.

I wouldnt expect anything less from NTL, nice to see us embarassingly tucked away at the bottom with just the one feed

I must admit (sadly), this is one of the main reasons I'll probably be sticking with Sky for the foreseeable future, using NTL for Broadband.

I emailed ntl:home about this years Big Brother and asked whether it would be interactive and this was their reply;

ntl are looking to upgrade all of its services with this new price increase
- This covers interactive/speed, more channels, more interactive content and
radio/music channels. We will be covering the World Cup 2002 and Wimbledon
on our interactive services. I am not entirely sure whether we will be
launching any coverage of Big Brother 3 but all announcements of interactive
will be showing on Channel NTL on your digital service.ntl are looking to upgrade all of its services with this new price increase

ive got ntl:home digital with e4, when it says that they'll be only one feed? does that mean, the same as last year with bb only getting shown when e4 programs aren't on? or hopefully, (though not likely) be a choice of either the bb hosue or e4 programming?

I think it will be the second option. having the E4 and interactive feeds different.

does anybody know about the 24 hour BB coverage through interactive. I saw on a web site a few weeks back that BB3 will be 24 hours on E4 you will be able to access the interactive camera angles of the house any time even when BB programmes are not on.

I agree - if the beeb can have 3 other EPG channels for their extended World Cup coverage why cant E4 have one
