It is really getting on my nerves now. I watched the live coverage today and saw the nominations going on so I was well keen to watch the hour long show tonight on C4 to see who had stabbed who in the back.

An hour later and after watching lots of second hand news I was dead dissapointed to be left none the wiser. It is astonishing that the nominations are not broadcast live to C4 but then to delay the whole thing, well it is all typical of the farty way they have produced the show up to now.

Dont get me wrong, I am loving the show but I really dont feel that I am part of it at all. I am convinced that the producers have got it all wrong and have no idea of what the public want. Or is it their intention to annoy and produce pissy little shows that mean nothing?

The programmes on Channel 4 have always been a day behind. this was the same as last year, with weekend coverage on a Monday night. This is because Ch4 show edited highlights, and it takes time to do this - even for a half hour programme.

Nominations were made on a Monday, with the result being announced to the housemate Tuesday lunchtime. This is also when viewers found out.

Matters are complicated this year by the live E4 feed, and also stuff on Little Brother.

Anything seen on E4 today will not appear on Ch4 until tomorrow. The only exception for this in Friday night's eviction shows.

Don't forget that not everyone can watch E4, so the stuff on Ch4 tonight will be new to them.
