RE: Babestation - General Chat & Discussion
the "girl caller" means they are no callers, i suspect. it usually happens late in the session when the supply of punters has dried up. it also seems to happen when the "babe" has a gap in her calls. has anyone been in a queue when a "girl caller" got in in front of them? it would be interesting to see how often that happens.
as for cellcast being a business, they most certainly are, and no business wants to admit is has no customers for fear of it putting the potential ones off. eg do you go into the empty pub or the one with customers? in the same way, the "babes" often pretend to talk to non-existant callers on all channels. on the bs channels you hardly ever see a "babe" touting for custom for minutes on end as you do on some others yet surely there would be times when there were no callers on bs as well.

RE: Babestation - General Chat & Discussion
I wonder with Cellcast recruiting new girls and what has gone on concerning another channel were girls are leaving and some may probably want to come back to BS if there is any chance of BS2 being brought back to freeview and put back on channel 99 , they should have no problem recruiting girls , producers and camera men that they would need in order to put out another channel , also i wonder how much longer 40+ wives will be shown on channel 99 with all that has gone on ? , so bringing back BS2 would be ideal to put on chan 99 if the 40+ show was terminated .

RE: Babestation - General Chat & Discussion
There are rumblings about 99 elsewhere. Not sure how much more I can say, but things might be different on the 21st.
CHEERS!

But once the ten minutes is up thats it; a once only experience........until they start the pointless countdown yet again.
Don't know if anyone else has noticed this little scam
They seem to be really overdoing the hard sell on the pictures at the moment. Stop it. This gets very annoying, especially having to constantly mute the voice over every two minutes. Not having a go at the girls as they are just doing what they are told by the shysters in charge.
The major thing that annoys me about this picture idea, and indeed Xtreme, is that far too many assumptions are made! Not everyone has, or wants, freeview. Not everybody has, or indeed wants, an all singing all dancing phone or Blackberry! Even if I could afford one I wouldn't have one, I'm clumsy and forgetful and you're only going to lose or break one of them once!
Sure, they have their uses, Daryl for one would hardly talk to us at all if she didn't have her Blackberry! But don't assume everyone has one, we're not all made of money you know! To assume makes an ass of u and me!
CHEERS!

I readily agree that the constant ads for Xtreme are annoying, and agree that the current plugging of 'exclusive' 'these pictures will self-destruct in 10 minutes' photos is over the top. Nevertheless, this is a business, and it's purpose is primarily to make money.
There's no money in people just watching, they need callers and subscribers and downloaders. You may not have a smartphone, but many viewers do and they are the ones they are trying to get to download the photos. I don't have a car, but when I watch TV I have to put up with a constant stream of ads for cars and car insurance!
As annoying as these things are, there wouldn't be any channels without them. We can bitch and moan in the hope they at least make them less obtrusive, but they are the life-blood of these channels, and will never fully go away.
