Is 'Live Broadcast' really live ?

Update:

I understand a some delay may be in the broadcasters interest. Editing/censuring/adverts and such. Is it the case ?

    Is anything ever really live. Even if you are standing talking to someone it can't really be live because it has taken a fraction of a nanosecond for the sound and light to get to you.

    There might be a few seconds delay for technical reasons, but Live really does mean live!

    Think back to The Princes Concert a few months ago. Would Ricky Gervais have made such an *** of himself if it hadn't been live??

    It's meant to be but they do experience a lot of problems with live broadcasts. Some programmes say that it is when you know that it's not.

  • say that to BB8 transmission only live on eviction night the rest 30min delay.
