if 4 are evicted and also aaron has been evicted thats 5 out in 2 days. i think this is the most unfair thing ever to have happened on big brother in its history. 6 people not nominated go up for eviction. ok ...... but to evict 4 of them is stupid and has destroyed any sense of fairness in the show. i just wont watch any more as its totally wrong and i dont want to see a load of new housemates arrive to replace some of the ones i like who have been thrown out for no good reason / have left. its crazy and has ruined this years show.
thanks channel 5

They could of still led the nominated hm's to belive they were still up. But then put all the hm's up for the public vote and evict four. I think that would of kept people happier.

Agree. Jade's eviction wasn't worth losing Harriet, Sarah, Chloe and the Twins. The producers are literally idiots, how did they even get jobs?

You have hit the nail on the head there. Personally I don't really give a sh*t ... although I was very much enjoying this season .... till this. Now I care even less. If they bring four loud, airhead wannabes in now I will switch off.

But even assuming that the aim behind changing who faced the vote was to save Jade, rather than Eileen, there was no need to evict 4 HMs to do it, and so the there must be a different reason for evicting 4.

agree it's stupid, why can't they just evict 3 instead of 4 now that Aaron's gone, all this to save that idiot Jade

But it obviously ISN'T all to save Jade, since even assuming they wanted to save Jade, they could have done it without evicting 4 HMs.

Vote To Save is typically the best way of disposing of the dead wood, providing the housemates nominate in a way that allow us to do so.

So even with BB's interference, it's still Vote To Evict, so there's no guarantee that the dullards will go. Probably why they want 4 out.

Seems like a mess.

There's no guarantee that the 'dullards' will go with vote to save either.

Most polls I've seen suggested that idiot Eileen was more likely to be evicted than idiot Jade, so I don't share your conviction.

Well vote to save works on the premise that those with the largest fan bases stay, those with the smallest go. I'd say it would be quite rare that a housemate that is generally accepted as being dull/boring manages to accumulate a following big enough to save them against, say, an interesting or even divisive housemate. In fact the great thing about VTS is that divisive housemates (eg. Jade and Eileen) would not be in any obvious danger when nominated.

Vote to evict tends to favour quieter housemates unless they are up against a universally popular housemate. How often do you see the "Let's get nasty X out this week. Boring Y can wait."

Deadwood or not I can't see how they can carry out the eviction in "real time" on Friday.

I would expect disbelief, screams, gnashing of teeth and very, very upset housemates.

They have not packed, got dressed up, been prepared for the interview questions, or mentally organised themselves for the baying crowd.

Just "get out", now.

If they had time to get organised they should strike, or something.

It is not really fair, nor was Aaron's eviction

Messing with people for viewing figures. The pits.

I think that argument is weak.

First off, what deadwood is up ? It's not even been 20 days yet. Harriet and Sarah are definitely not deadwood, neither are the Twins. Keiran and Danny have a laugh and feature a fair bit in the HL's so they ain't deadwood either. The only one this argument can be used against is Chloe.

Second point. Even if there is deadwood, so what ? Housemates aren't required to be argumentative and over dramatic, they have entered a show and are attempting to win £150k, the show shouldn't be fixed just to get rid of them.

They weren't nominated and 4 of them are going to be evicted. How exactly is that fair and a good twist ? it's up there with the worst twists this show has ever done. The fans of those HM's are the ones i feel sorry for, they are going to lose their favourite just because BB doesn't want them anymore.”

If there is dead wood a vote to evict won't get rid of them. Harriet will no doubt go tomorrow she isn't dead wood. i don't like her but she is doing something even if it's just annoying me. I would say the least entertaining from what we have seen is Danny. He will probably stay.

I also hate new HMs and these look horrendous.

This twist isn't about saving Jade. It's beyond that. They have ensured that the ones making their stories will stay.
