Unless anyone knows better, I don't think there is a live stream this
year behind the red button, is there? Well, there isn't on Sky. Maybe
it's because VirginMedia sponsor the show.

Hi Ron
Thanks for this. I wasn't sure whether perhaps if I was on E4 for
instance, if I pressed the red button, BB live would start playing no
matter what was on. It's definitely a shame you can't use it though. I
live alone so before I sign up for it, I just want to ensure that it's
at least usable for what I want.
