Love it. I was getting so bored with this show. This will keep me watching for a while longer. Hopefully they'll bring some interesting characters.
Well some viewers may not like the twist BUT...

I think it'll ultimately be counter-productive, though. There's only so many times you can take the piss out of the viewers before they stop giving you the opportunity to.
FUBAR.”

Agree with the above,if they have such good characters in the wings why didn't they put them in already?? It's two weeks in...i dont think anyone can even seriously be called deadwood yet...there hasn't been enough time..Its confirmation that the selection process is that shaky there not even confident in thier own choices,deadwood if any, is the likes of Danny Chloe,maybe my fave Kieran even..but at least 2 of them will end up staying..
I won't be voting from now on..whats the point? At this point I won't watch much either...what am I watching for? So hms can avoid nomination and still be chucked out? Where's the game in that?
Eff the ratings,hope the show tanks now.

You have absolutely no proof that what you believe is true. We will never know the truth.
It's a game show without rules. Anything can happen. And no one is forced to watch.
I am enjoying it.

It does seem like that, though I think as soon as the they knew who were nominated they would've been thinking of a way to change things. Given Jack had already used one save on someone else I think it was always unlikely he'd use another.

Of course it does (seem like that) there was no point in Jack 'saving' anyone it seems,was that to be yet another part of the twist?...if so why give jack the heads up,? Wouldn't that have been a good twist,Jack in firing line? Oh soz,they want to keep him...notice its clearly them keeping people not the hms,not.The viewers...it's totally what the producers want now..all veils have been lifted.
I'm not a fan of the twist, I've really been enjoying watching these housemates gradually get to know each other, personalities slowly come out and it felt like an early series of BB. I think by getting rid of four they are jumping the shark a little, it makes BB look desperate which is never a good message to give out. I think the twist is going to get rid of some good characters and seems a bit pointless.
However as people have said it has got people talking and some people on the forum seem to love it. Maybe this is the final sign that BB is not the BB of old and is now a completely different show where people can leave without a public vote and nominations dont really count.
Its a shame as thats not the programme I love, but it seems like others do and maybe thats the best audience for them to target which means they lose some original fans.

Well put,..you're right it's not the show we love and probs hasn't been for some time,I stuck with it as I love this place,but even that has gone down the pan imo,seems to be a lot more vindictive insecure posters just out for the pretty girls blood from day one regardless of how they behave,terms like vibes and suspicions without any substance taking the place of good debate...while the male hms get away with anything as long as they are good to look at...it's got gradually worse to the point we are at today..people are openly asking 'what has such and such done wrong'..and the answers are completely laughable...'they wanted thier own eggs'..
Throw a load of beautiful girls in watch this forum rip em apart.. Pathetic.
