Two spin offs, isn't it? OKTV I thought were generally doing the BB thing for the duration.

But the live stream isn't going to come back on Channel 5, as Des can make more money with casino telly.


From what I saw OKTV was basically BBLB for the duration of the run with less cool presenters, and Bit on the Side is basically an extended Big Mouth with added BBLB elements. That's an extra hour and a half of Big Brother on the main channel compared to Channel 4 (excluding the overnight live feed).

I just don't understand why people just want to watch people sleep, not a clue why the overnight live stream was introduced in the first place.

OKTV yesterday was a mix of BB and X-Factor news.

What about that Twitter thing? Who wants to read what Stephen Fry had for breakfast?

He presumably had a 'Stephen fry up'.

Pete Burns dropped the 'C' Bomb on tonight's Celebrity Big Brother's Bit on the Side while talking to the pissing dog. When the dog started pissing he whacked him on the head and broke his little neck.

Bet Channel 5 are glad this happened on 5* at 5 to midnight when no one is watching rather than Channel 5 at 11pm.

EDIT : Apparently the show overran too, so Freeview viewers missed the end.

Do you think it will be edited out on 5*+1 when it comes round to 12.55am?

There is only one way to find out. You are going to have to stay up for an extra hour with your capture card warmed up.

Channel 4 sometimes edited Big Brother programmes on their +1 showing, I don't know if Channel 5 have the same ability to do that. I wonder if they would bother anyway, it will be just before 1am on a little watched digital time shift channel and the CA warned that it may contain strong language anyway. If you can't swear under those circumstances, when can you swear?

Yeah very true, but I think the 'C' bomb is a bit harsh even for swearing to be allowed!

Well, Pete Burns just dropped the 'C' Bomb again on 5*+1, an hour after he did it the first time. I'm off to bed.

And it hasn't been edited out on YouTube Demand 5 either:

WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE (obviously)
