Big Brother fans have slammed the show’s live feed after over half of the three-hour stream was muted with bird sounds.

The iconic show has become known for using the noise when housemates swear or are involved in a contentious situation, but fans complained bosses have been hiding hours of chats, rendering the stream ‘pointless.’

Big Brother fans have been getting their live feed fix on ITVX between 11pm and 2am each evening, sharing a glimpse of moments that could fail to make the final edit.

But Tuesday’s latest instalment left many viewers irate, with one writing on X: ‘I’ve never been more jealous of people’s ability to lip read tan I am during the Big Brother live stream.’

Another added: ‘I will gladly set up a 24 hour live feed feature for you so I don’t have to listen to these stupid bird noises and cut feeds when necessary please I am sick of these silly birds.’

Annoying: Big Brother fans slammed the Big Brother live feed on Tuesday night after over half of the three-hour stream was muted with bird sounds

One angry viewer shared: ‘2 hours of live stream and so far we’ve had 1hr 30 minutes worth of bird noises.’

‘There’s literally no point in the live stream if it’s gonna be muted 24/7 it’s so s**t. Everyone matches this live stream, expecting it to be good and to listen to the housemates lives. But the Big Brother producers have to be Karens so they mute it for no reason,’ a fan added.

Showing their frustration, one fan posted: ‘We can all report this live stream of Big Brother to Ofcom for having longer time hearing bird noises instead of hearing the coversations that has been going on.’

Another added: ‘Every night the Big Brother live stream seems to be filled with more and more birdsong like there’s no point even watching it now. Get about 30 seconds every 10 minutes.’

It comes after Monday’s feed sparked outrage from viewers, when housemate Kerry used a ‘derogatory’ gay slur during a tantrum, with Big Brother reportedly ‘reviewing’ the incident.

Split into two teams, throughout the day, housemates competed in various tasks, giving them the chance to become VIP Glampers and win a more luxurious camping experience.

Kerry secured her spot in the VIP area during the shopping task, but her fellow contestants decided to hide her mattress. 

Joking Olivia and Jenkin told Kerry that fans at home had voted for one housemate to lose their luxury bed. 

Seriously? Viewers complained that Tuesday’s feed had hours of chats muted, rendering the stream ‘pointless’

Raging: Fans took to Twitter to share their frustration with the live feed, with one even threatening to complain to Ofcom

Expressing her anger at the situation, she complained to her co-stars and exclaimed: ‘Well, this is gay.’ 

ITV told The Daily Star that they are ‘reviewing’ the situation following viewer’s  complaints. 

MailOnline has contacted Big Brother representatives for comment. 

Sharing their thoughts on X, one viewer said: ‘Oh of course #Kerry uses gay as a derogatory word, she won’t have to worry about being in the highest tax bracket when she gets out, because the NHS will have to sack her.’

Another added: ‘I genuinely haven’t heard someone use that expression in about 10 years. Shockingly awful and outdated. Actually even surprised Kerry would say it on TV.’ 

A third wrote: ‘There is nothing wrong with the word gay itself but the problem is the context in which Kerry used it.’

It comes after Kerry came under fire for making ‘tone deaf’ remarks about her salary during Sunday’s episode. 

The NHS Manager shocked viewers during a conversation with model Zak, 28, food writer Henry, 25, and barman Jenkin, 25, as they discussed the average salaries of MPs compared to the UK population. 

While sharing their thoughts on the politics, Kerry – who revealed that she had voted Conservative all her life  – said that MPs ‘don’t get paid that much’, while complaining that she begrudges paying the ‘higher tax bracket.’

Kerry narrowly avoided being booted from the Big Brother house on Friday after facing the first public vote alongside make-up artist Farida – who was the first evictee.
