Sorry but did we establish whether ntl would be getting a separate feed on another EPG number or would we only be getting E4's coverage which eveyone (not ex-ITVd) gets anyway...

Please dont reply with a link to the information from digital spy because im sure that doesnt answer my Q

im an ntl home customer as well and i've been wondering the same question about the interactivity of e4 (although not about epg numbers!wtf?), i done a search on it in google and found this (i know its a link, but hey get over it) http://www.ntl.com/locales/gb/en/home/qas/ ... and done at the bottom it says that there will be interactive coverage.. whether that is just a dull page of news or round the clock action.. is anybodys guess......... but hey theres only about a day to go, and a day till we find out if ntl is any good!

cya.

by the way i said EPG number because i know that our TV software cant use streams of video in the interactive and i would only get replies saying "the present software doesnt allow use of video streams in interactive...."

aaaaaahhhhhhhh, i realise wot ur talking about now, although ntl updated it in my area about 1-2 weeks ago, now when u press the interactive button, a white screen appears and the channel is in a wee window about 2/3 the size.... insidentaly (sp, lol) if u goto e4 and press the red button now..... instead of saying thats there no link to the channels interactivity (blah, blah, blah)......... it appears with a yellow screen, which a suppose is a step in the right direction

yes i did notice the yellow screen earlier today. But CH4/E4/NTL could have had at least a 'coming soon' or 'starts tonight at nine' on the screen instead of a blank screen - and it seems this is the only way of getting BB interactive - there are no links in the interactive menu's.

Ntl really should have an index in A-Z somewhere in interactive

I jUst had this emailed to me. I'm not sure where its from,

"Big Brother 3 live webstream gets monthly tariff

The Big Brother website is to charge online fans for its live stream from the house.
Monthly packages will give subscribers access to live audio from the house, and a video archive from the series.
The package also includes access to unseen diary room footage.
Fans can register through the official Big Brother <http://www.channel4.com/entertainmen...s/B/bigbrother> website and pay nothing for the first two weeks, after which they can either pay £9.95 per month for the package, or opt to watch the free Big Brother news and diary room video clips.
All Big Brother 'news' clips go into the Big Brother archive after the first 24 hours, so that Big Brother subscribers can catch up on events in the house they may have missed or want to watch again."
