I'm massively late to the party, but what has actually been done? By a bit of skim reading am I correct that Ashleigh is not safe but the other power alliance members are?
Exclusive- Ch5 refuse to comment on twist

Sounds good...I mean it's no Monkey Tennis, but I'd watch.

How can you say this? It's nothing to do with 'favourites' and everything to do with out and out lying to the public.
BB are treading on very thin ice indeed with this latest ploy. The public voted Ashleigh to be PHM and she was given immunity. It was stated again that the PHMs had immunity.
Then they pull this.
If anyone condones this, there's something wrong with their moral outlook.

Yes but they might not have been! The Nominated HM's had to choose one PHM instead of one Nominated HM. They chose to save Ash between them & to replace with Ashleigh but they could have picked any PHM.

The Queen and David Cameron are having a emergency meeting over it Barack Obama and The Pope are also reported to be flying in
A new day
Channel 5 f**k up again and drive another nail into the coffin of BB and treat views like shit.
Expect the same tomorrow and forever as they just don't do anything else.

That's sounds like a suitably proportionate response.
I also expect daily COBRA meetings and an emergency vote of the UN.

If thy spread it out so that it was not always the same ones thy pick on then people might be more accepting but every time that girl has turned round bb has dropped her in it even when she has said things to them when she has been upset has been repeated to the other hm even Chris commented on this nothing Helen or ash have said has been told to the house I for one do not like unfairness and before you say oh it's her fav it's not it will be Chris I will vote for in the final I just feel thy are treating her badly

It's all too easy for us to feel like that ^ but I don't care about Ashleigh one way or another and I'm still angry with this latest so-called twist. They've all been crap this series but we were told all 3 PHMs would be immune.... and suddenly, on an apparent whim, one of them isn't.
The production team has lied and cheated all the way through and this is the last straw afaic. It's just pathetic.

Well this is truth.
Regardless of what will or won't happen, if you think Ashleigh has been wronged to the extent that you'd contact channel 5 about it, you must also stand by the fact that Helen definitely ought to keep her pass to the final until she makes it there. And if Helen's pass were taken away you should be contacting channel 5 just as fervently. If you don't feel this way about both scenarios then it's about something other than what you feel is right or wrong on the part of channel 5.”

The difference is. We the public were told it was going to happen this year bb has refused the public the chance to vote twice we have lost two hm this way now thy are saying one thing to the public then after we have voted a hm To be the power thy go against use and take it away from her if thy can do this then thy can take Helens free pass away prove thy are being treated equally

Good man. I have the SAS on standby just in case they are needed tonight. Also a fleet of green vans with men in white coats ready for when the forum goes apoplectic after tonight's HL show.
They clearly don't give a shit.
If we weren't so far into this series and I hadn't invested as much time watching it, I'd be switching off.

Exactly! There are no rules to BB & it's not like they lied to the public. Anyone wanting or expecting a statement really do take this show way too seriously!

I'm fairly certain Helens pass will be removed the week before the final .............I seem to remember lots of people begging for that. Why is it OK for others but not for Ashleigh?”

I think you will find there was! It's just that Ashleigh is way more popular than Toya, so the uproar is magnified.

If all the hms were being screwed over at some point I could live with it but the targeting of anyone who isn't one of Helen's groupies is all wrong.
I'm beginning to think Helen may have some 'dirt' on one (or more!) of the producers as she continues to retain her pass to the final, nothing about her seedy past has been exposed and now her no 1 boy has been saved at Ashleigh's expense.
They are a joke and laughing stock. They cant comment because it is yet another screw up by them.
I've hardly watched the shambles for the last couple of weeks. They have lost me now as a viewer.

I don't like Ashleigh but if this was a one off in an otherwise fair series I'd be annoyed too. However there has been so much manipulation this year this latest twist doesn't even register TBH.
Last Friday BB interfered to save Ashleigh and get rid of Danielle by ensuring Biannca was out of the house before the new HMs made their decision.
If it wasn't for BB's fixing Ashleigh wouldn't even be in the house, so fair is fair.

I couldn't agree more.
I like Ashleigh, but she is not my favourite. But I can guarantee if Helen had the power, and was put up, everybody would be saying it was a good move by C5.
I dislike people on here who complain, like there is no tomorrow just because a twist did not go their way, or a person who they like is in danger.
Like I said, I don't mind Ashleigh. But I'm not in the least way gutted that she is up, as she's safe.
Steven's a dead cert to go anyway, if he doesn't Pav will go.
Ashleigh's probably the safest.
The only thing that annoys me is why the producers have the need to keep piling on twist after twist after twist, they did it during Armageddon, and we lost two decent housemates.
