I've only voted for Luke A too, I would be absolutely delighted if he won on Monday. I wouldn't mind if Adam won either.

its the other way around coz its a vote to win not to evict so with 4 insiders in the final it would be a split vote for them and all the people who dont like the insiders would vote for Luke. Not one of them would stand a chance against him in the final imo
I think with the 3 outsiders in the final, the vote would split also, so I honestly think it is better if Deana or Adam go tonight, preferably Deana.

From a tactical point of view, you are correct.

Yes, you are right but if Luke was alone he wouldn't be happy and for that reason, I have given Deana and Adam some votes. His happiness is more important and I think the others would be goading him all the time if he was left on his own. I don't think it will happen though - I am sure Ash and Scott will be leaving tonight. After that, all my money (and WD's ) will be going on Luke to win.

...
It has been a pleasure to see the outsiders overcome the much larger insiders group and all that remains is to witness them snatching the top three places in the final. That would be the perfect ending.
That's a bit of a myth, really. The insiders were a much larger group only if you count outsiders very narrowly and insiders very broadly. For example, Caroline and Conor had almost no nomination choices in common, yet they'd both be counted as "insiders".

...
I was unhappy that BB let the Insiders rig the vote so that it was a straight Lauren v Luke eviction and barely tuned in for that week. ...
It's questionable that the insiders rigged the vote. Becky's revelation about what Lauren said in the DR was bound to get Lauren lots of nominations, but it wasn't vote-rigging as that's normally understood; and if the nominations for Luke A were rigged, why didn't Conor or Ashleigh nominate him?

...

I think it all makes more sense if we don't see the "insiders" as a large, unified group. Instead, there was a group of guys (Conor, Arron, Luke S). They chiefly targeted Deana and seemed to have some effect on Ashleigh's nominations.

Caroline always nominated "outsiders" (if we count Chris as one) and seemed influential some weeks but not others; but she never nominated Deana, not even after the "B and D" talk, or Lydia.

Everyone else has nomination choices that aren't so easily categorised, though Becky seemed especially good at seeing which way the wind was blowing. (She nominated the evicted HM every week before the almost-all-up week when Caroline went.)

I think the fundamental division is that the main "outsiders" were all more "mature" in some way. That wasn't the only factor at work, but I think it was the most important.

And so ... it was almost inevitable, if Luke A was still there at this point, that he'd find himself in a group much like the one he's in.

Thanks, you've made some good points. I'm surprised that Caroline refrained from nominating Deana when she knew Conor was obviously nominating her every week.

She must be saying why she thinks he should win . I think BBBOTS is in the garden tonight, I'm not sure how that is going work. Did anyone watch it last year?

Technically, you may be right but I'd bet if you were to ask Luke if he wants Deana and Adam to survive tonight the answer would be a resounding yes. I think he'd be gutted if either of them went and it might also give the remaining housemates time to make life difficult for him this weekend and ruin his chances of winning.
That's true, it would nice for them all to be in the top three.

I did,and remember being horrified when Aaron's supposed 'friend' said something negative about him. Hope nothing like that happens tonight for Luke A, but if it's his wife talking I doubt that will happen.

The HMs all stood watching behind the glass if I remember rightly while the show went on outside but they could hear what was being said.

Aww, not really. He did not have a big fanbase. Ash will be out next.

Thank you That sounds strange, I didn't watch last year. There seems to be a lot of exposure to the outside world this year. I'm not sure whether I like it like this, I think it's better when they have no idea of how they are being perceived.

Right, this is it now people. The hard work starts to get Luke A to the final. We need to start keeping him on the mf, and vote like crazy when lines open.

We can do this.
