After the ads were shown the announcer said "We were supposed to be going live to the house but there seems to be a small fault, our technitions are fixing it and we hope to have an update at 11:30pm.

Now the announcer said - ''sorry we should have been live to big brother but there is problems with the uplink from the house, while our enginers try to fix it watch 'donna in need' - there will be a update at 11:30''

I read on the official bb2 forum that it wasn't until tommorow when Big Brother's Little Brother started.

what is that black and white clock anyway? ive occasionally seen it on other channels before, but not very often. is it something we (the viewers) arent really supposed to see? if so, how come we occasionally do?

The whole E4 live feed an interactive facility has been badly thought out, someone needs to be sacked. They've had months to test the technology.

That "clock" is a countdown before the programme. It is on every programme tape. its there so people at TV companies know when to switch from ident to programme.

thanks james, it all makes sense now!

So for this error to occur, surely the programme tape must have been separate from the btcellnet/big bro intro?
