The "Winston Cheer Effect" has made eviction nights exciting again.

Winston Cheer Effect: When the nominated housemate with the loudest cheer/girly screams ends up being the one evicted.
Winston, then David.
Also works in reverse - the person with the loudest boos is no longer an eviction cert.
I love it that the eviction crowd are so out of touch with what is really going on
Or are the viewers finally rewarding the bringers of the drama rather than the housemate who appears the most saintly?

Yes, it was first very noticable with Aaron so I gather (I dropped out of that series just after Harry was evicted so didn't see the final at all).
Yes...and Sam before her?
I could see Helen winning because I think the "Chris/Ashleigh/ Christopher" alliance didn't exist outside the forum and she didnpick up votes from other evicted finalist - and also that Helen was the 'anyone but Ashleigh' vote. So I could see that her winning was an outside possibility - but a possibility nonetheless.
Sam's support seem to come from nowhere. I can't speak for everyone - but I love, love, LOVE shock eviction and win results.
It does make it harder to make a little money on the betting for the flutters though.
this generally only happens with vote to save though. and has been happening for years since channel 5 took over.
remember spiedi getting booed every week, aaron getting booed every week the list goes on.
i simply adore the crowd having no influence on the result
the problem is, it encourages the thicko's on facebook to scream FIX . ''but the crowd booed him/her how did they survive eviction, its a FIX''.
the stupidity of some people is hilarious and worrying all at the same time
There is also the other opinion !
I think they were more in sink when it was a vote to evict. But its not always the case...sometimes that crowd just seem to boo people for the sake of it?
Well I would normally agree up until the worryingly overwhelming evidence this year. I don't think many of my "favourites", if any have won Big Brother as I tend to be very different to the demographic that watch/vote for Big Brother HMs. It has happened twice and I tend to get runners up or finalists. I have never cried Fix as it is just how it is. But I do have to question this summer as the background to the entry of our winner is suspect. I am not an idiot or a thicko, far from it. My alarm bells started to ring when a woman I had thought familiar from an article I had read about an up and coming chat show as Desmond's new project was awarded a pass to the final. Maybe it wasn't her....just a look a like that had a story to tell about a kiss and tell and needed PR......or a coincidence
I've watched every single series - civilian, celebrity, Hijack and teen and only voted once. That was the final in 2001 when I voted for Brian to win.
I'm the same, only voted once or twice on reality series:) If it was a free vote and everyone who watched voted, I think the results could be very different.
Helen destroyed big brother.
