It was a lesser of two evils....neither played the game well and neither deserved it.

oh I like twists but they only work if theres acctually a game to play and with UK big brother there is no game due to the fact they can't discuss nominations. If theres no story establishing and no strategy and tactics then no twist, no matter how well executed, will work as theres nothing for it to destroy. Like survivor Thailand, they had the two tribes, they got to the point where they normally merged, put the teams on the same beach and so they becan stratagising and working out tactics and trying to get folk from one tribe to join the other....then it turned out that they wern't merged, they were still two tribes but just living in the same camp and it totally messed the game coz folk had already screwed their own team and switched alliances and things....introduction of things in US big brother like the nomination VETO and putting people back in the house has no effect in the UK as theres no game play element to the game. They have to leave the game as it was in BB1 with no frills for at least a few weeks with the sole exception of being allowed to discuss nominations, that way no matter who the housemates are your guaranteed stratagising, scheming and bitching allong with plans going wrong and fights over lying to fellow housemates....
