If there was no prize money, how many HMs would stay in there all summer?

I guess it would really show the wannabes, because they wouldn`t be able to deny that they were in there for the fame.

I would imagine had this have happened they would have had to earn back the prize money somehow.

It certainly wouldn't have been the end of the matter. It's Timebomb so they would have had the opportunity to "rewind."

If I were in and the prize money went I would walk.

I admit the one and only reason I would enter would be the prize money.

Saying that I would't walk that moment as I would think they will put it back so I would give it a week or two before I walked.

I'm glad you started this thread. What was the plan if the prize money went? Did they have one? Was it such a no-brainer that they didn't need one?

Ridiculous attempt at a twist.

I've often thought that a great first night twist would be revealing to the housemates that there is no prize fund and that the must earn every penny of it throughout the summer.

I've a vague sense they did something like that before!

Also, in Kitten's year - when she wouldn't leave they let the money run down until she left and the rest of them were practically pushing her out the door

ha ha .. thanks for reminding me of that night, what a cow Kitten was Started off saying if she didn't leave the house as instructed to by BB they would make "television history", well they sure did that, but not in the way Kitten expected

Back on point the OP asked us who would stay in the house if there were no prize money. I would say:

Joel, Jack and Nick. The others I guess would think they have bigger fish to fry as their three days in the house had turned them into international superstars and stretch limos were waiting for them outside

that was so funny - one minute they were all supporting her, the next, as you say, they were practically pushing her out

i've never seen a load of ppl change tack in so short a time, it made me think of a shoal of fish with a shark coming at them - whoosh

Yes, as they did in BB10. Through various tasks they got it back up to sixty-something thousand.

This is an excellent idea.

It was a rubbish twist. As a viewer, I don't find anything funny or entertaining about taking away the prize money or playing around with it. It's just stupid. Even if they entered the house with no prize and had to work for it, I still think it's just silly.

I remember that.

That was when BB was BB

I think they were looking for a way to get rid of the prize money, after blowing the budget on Pwicey, sitting on her boring arse in january.

If I had been in there with that bunch of idiots I would have taken the car and gone

The final adds so much to the game! What you are saying is like how much do you value friendship without games... aka the love of life, another war. Did the gal who won last year, divvy up the prize?

If u say no prize, they'll know the kids working there (Big Brother police) are on to something. U have to .. .be abit cruel to watch it happen. To want more, ya lost

If Jack had taken the car, Emma would have been telling us that the housemates THOUGHT there was no prize money but there would be a massive, shocking, game-changing twist....
