Housemates decided who will be evicted.......so the public just wasted their money. Well done Channel 5, another cock up.

Winston was obviously staying if the votes were kept then.

Nothing's changed then. Channel 5 are a terrible company. They might aswell just change the voting system to the USA style voting.

So let's just say Winston has the more votes than Nancy........how is it fair for him to be evicted ? We weren't even told, how is that right ?

They need to reveal the voting figures, for sure.

If 3 people are up in a vote to save, the public are voting to save 2 people.

at a guess they will get away with it as it was a vote to save. by saying Kristina is safe they are saying that is who the public vote chose to save. That was the decision you were voting for - which one would be saved. they have delivered what most voted for.

just playing devils advocate

Technically, they never said the person with the least amount of votes to save will be evicted. Just that the HM with the most votes will be saved which is true.

Still pretty deceiving though but I don't think they'll get into trouble thanks to "vote to save"

This isn't a double though lol. If the person with the least votes by the public ended staying then voters have wasted money. Channel 5 could have at least made it clear when voting opened.

Winston got more votes to save than Nancy obviously. However, after the wine incident and that awful mob of LATE 20 somethings (they're not as young as they are made out to be, I'm near the same age without the ignorance, entitlement and conceit), it might be closer than originally thought.

For the record, I think Nancy is fabulous. Everyone likes her. Even gay men like her!

They should have told us this is what is going to happen yesterday not once the voting line has finished.

Nacey will probably go since she just argued with the young group

I agree but remember "Who goes you decide" left the building years ago.Like you I was a BB purist but I had to let it go for my sanity I have now acceped this scripted reality as the new and not improved CH5 answer to BB .

Surely they can't keep getting away with this though. They have basically just come up with a plan B incase Winston didn't get evicted without telling the audience.......again. I don't see how having a public vote can be legal for this version of BB anymore, people are being robbed.

BB has been a joke for years. It's only loyalty to what was a great show what keeps me watching. The production team just do what they like these days to get the result(s) they want.

If 3 people are up in a vote to save, the public are voting to save 2 people.
And many people will have voted for 2 people to stay, in order to evict the one they want to leave. That means they've spent twice as much as they needed to, as, in this case, they should have only voted to save one person.

Was that when they changed it to "Who goes, the producers decide"?

It would be a farce if the one evicted got most public votes but I guess that BB want him to be rejected by the public and the HMs

My question is " Which HMs , if any, will vote to keep him in"

I would imagine Winston wants to go, his place in the house is untenable now.
