This in todays Metro newspapers' TV choices...

"Has a programme ever shown such scant respect for its fan base than the current run of Big Brother, which we sincerely hope is the last?
We're picking it as our Must See in the hope that the fans on live eviction duly chant "producers out" in protest at the blatant fixing that has turned the show into a farce and even made presenter Emma Willis look shamefaced.
It should be smarmy Steven to go but don't rule out last minute shenanigans aimed at keeping him in."

I read it and thought - spot on!

Ha ha Spot on about the fixing. However it's not just this week they've been doing it to get the selection of housemates they want in or out.

That chant would be amazing......."Get the producers out"

Absolutely, it's probably a bit late but this is what needs to happen imo.

Loving that on so many levels... and should that happen poor old Steven will not even get a chance to mention that tonight is "all about him ... "

I think we should change the chant to "Get Producers Out". Facebook was originally named "the Facebook" but went from strength to strength when they dropped out the word "the", Get Producers out rolls off the tongue better too I'm already practising, I will be at home but I chant every week from the settee ..

Was there a 'load of shit' option?

Yes you're right. Drop the 'the' Producers out definitely rolls off the tongue so much better

As a brief as it was, that was a delight to read and so very, very apt.

I think a far more effective way to get a point across would be to urge everybody planning to attend the live eviction to just, not go.

Well said metro,they seem to be showing more concern for us than the helen/ash/steven/winston arse licking producers.

OMG so true, anyone can see if. The producers should be ashamed

I would never do Big Brother, the producers do an X Factor job and decide who stays and who goes

I even think "Get BB OUT!" would be a better chant since it focuses our disgust better!

Glad to see the sentiment is being echoed in other places. Proves that it's not just fans kicking up a stink.
This series has been handled so badly that it's practically laughable, I'm surprised they had the nerve.

Yes but she doesn't handle it very well. When asked about it last night by glasses man ( Paul on BOTS ) she done her usual " I don't get told anything " with her squealy giggle

I've enjoyed this BB more than loads of others precisely because they've mucked it up so much. I've only watched one series of US BB but isn't that left to HM to evict? I cant remember.

It makes no difference to me that they've taken out the public input. I cant understand anyone paying exorbitant phone call charges. I think the only time I've ever voted was the first Pop Idol and Fame Academy. (I was a lot naiver about Reality TV then)

If you don't like the way it's going then don't watch and certainly don't waste your money on voting. It's probably totally rigged. Winning BB (yes you get £100k) isn't a set up for life and nor do most come out of it with their dignity intact. Long term careers on the back of it are not going to happen so why would making a prat of yourself be worth doing?

I have no idea, but after 5 years of not watching, I'm enjoying this lot immensely.
