I think what Perez said may have just killed BB forever for hardcore fans
Across the years of BB, we have always had the ideas that some things were tweaked on BB... eg. tasks to create conflict, etc... but I think what Perez said on BOTS has killed BB for all those people who have watched for years (before Ch5).
Rylan must feel a little embarrassed for saying "go on then" to Perez' "Do you want to know the actual truth?". Looking on Twitter, I can see a bunch of BB fan websites have closed down due to what was revealed, and a lot of people are not happy. Oh dear! I knew Perez would have been convinced to stay, but never knew that it would actually be confirmed. Also, here's a question... when Perez said this, we heard a lot of boos from people. Was it just me or have a feeling that some of them didn't come from the audience, I have a feeling that came from behind the scenes? There will be a lot of people in trouble tonight. |

Now we know the truth. Out of the mouths of babes and all that. They milked a traumatised Perez for the last drop.

I don't know... I think because it came from Perez too many people will rationalise it as him lying or attention seeking.
Had it come from someone a bit more reliable, then I think it would have a bigger effect. |

((APPLAUSE)) For Salv.
Absolutely right. Disappointing for the BB purists Its a bit like a guy who wears M&S enhancement Y Fronts, leaving the woman very excited with anticipation. then the pants come off..... Maybe Perez might be sued by BB production for revealing that HMs are just BB puppets in a muppet show |

At first I thought it was possible that he might have been making it up....but then he said the producer guy told him that it had been the most watched Big Brother in years.
Which is information he could have only got from outside. I have absolutely no idea what he was booed for saying what he did. Was it because people were angry that he destroyed the illusion they want to believe so much in? |

They milked the guy to stay because they knew his antics were boosting the ratings, and tonight they threw him to the mob. Disgusting behaviour from the show's producers.

I don't see the problem.
He wanted to walk - they talked him into staying - surely it's happened countless times before. Are we really that naïve? |

I didn't see BBOTS so forgive me for asking but does this mean or possibly suggest that the producers might have also had a hand in convincing or arranging for Alex to leave in order to make sure Perez didn't go?

![]() HM comes in crying, moaning and threatening to leave. BB say they're great, people love 'em and please stay, and they do. The only extra thing is that Perez talked about BB saying that he has made the show, and got the ratings. That ain't great, but the first scenario I think is very common in all BBs. |

I have loved this show since i was 10 years old, it has been in my life longer than i have been without it. But i don't think i can support it in the same way anymore. We as viewers are being messed about with too much now, i refuse to be made to look like a mug anymore. I think i will just try and watch it casually now and not get so attached to it.
I had hoped that that survey they did meant that they were finally willing to listen to the fans, but i am seeing nothing different with the show at all. The show has been butchered since the move to channel 5. |

Most BB fans know the show is fake and scripted. The ones that have already accepted this will probably continue to watch.
Lets be honest here, anyone that thinks this is a 'real' show (even before what perez said) probably don't have too many brain cells and will watch anything anyway. And will continue to vote on a fake show. |

Even if you dislike Perez, I think anyone not believing what he said would be foolish. It was obvious at the time, but like I said, I'm surprised we actually found out the truth.

He said that the producers persuaded him to stay. They always try to persuade housemates who want to leave to sleep on it and come back to discuss it the next morning. Perez has history on embellishing actual facts so I doubt he was treated any differently to any other housemates. He said the producers told him he had to stay as it was "the Perez show" - I don't really believe they said that.

Had it come from someone a bit more reliable, then I think it would have a bigger effect. when they messed up and production were in the house numerous times they laughed it off. "oh it was this and that", Rarely it would happen in the C4 days only when something major had occurred. The entire concept as we saw yesterday flooding the house with outside information its basically mutated the format into Reality Soap. this entire series has been about conflict they saw the ratings provide Channel 5 with some of its best numbers they wanted more and they wanted it sustained. A lot of us were talking on Twitter few weeks ago and I suspect get ready for all the information Perez wont care he will be back in the USA. And no doubt they will dismiss everything again. It become clear few weeks ago the Cost issue was never the real reason the feed didn't return (that came directly from the boss of the show), The level of control they have over everything is just unreal. but again we saw tonight Emma being stumped when an Evicted HM asked had they seen the footage after the event she hadn't and that entire line of Questioning died on the spot. I hope actually Emma drops this show and gets a better Gig because until the producers realise this isn't reality soap this setup is just going to keep exposing the current farce of the format which only they (endemol) can change by Telling Channel 5 enough is enough. the summer series will be filled with the same people as last year and it will drag itself to a crap winner again who producers will deem "amazing" like they did about last years winner. |

It is par for the course, you're right, but I do think producers possibly telling him he's had an impact on ratings is a step too far (but then again, it's not surprising these days!) |
