Although I knew that she was ultimately going to "win" immunity, I really didn't believe that the BB production team would be quite so blatant in ensuring that she went through. Do they really believe that viewers are going to continue to waste money voting when the winner is a mere formality.
Was that the final nail in the BB coffin?

The writing's been on the wall for a few years now but...yes they've stooped to a new low of insulting viewer intelligence imo.
Ya gotta laugh, really.

everything this
It definitely pushed the show a step closer to being the sole preserve of the lowest common denominator.

Yes this is true
And now we have Emma towing the line and saying it wasn't a fix stop trying to fool the public losing any respect for her.

Yeah they do! Just like they think that when Emma tells viewers there is only 1% difference between the bottom 3 will lead to a voting frenzy. How improbable is that considering the lines have been open for 3 days? I should imagine hugely unlikely!!

Lol it happens every series. BB's had more nails than B&Q
She was in the top 3 tonight, so going to the effort of fixing it would seem needlessly protective.
Everyone loves this aspect of the show now, second guessing Big Brother. Threads like this are born every minute.

I'm still mad at Nikki being voted back in. Perhaps the first 'final nail in the coffin'.
To be fair though, BB7 was the last series all my friends watched. I've had to suffer on my own all these years.

I'm probably not the only one who only watches it to see how low they will actually sink with this show. There is a thread somewhere that questions the IQ's of people who call fix on this show.....I simply question the IQ of anyone that actually VOTES on this show! To actually think their votes are making a difference is amusing to say the least. The money raised from each weeks voting probably goes behind the bar for the production team on live nights!! 
Nah that'll be when an argument enginered by the producers leads to an accidental death. I can see this happening before 2018.

Can't laugh really as just done with BB now. I have not really watched CBB for number of years and this year was first time got into it for a while, sad as fed up with the manipulations now.

To be fair Emma looked liked she hated having to lie like that .. I felt sorry for her

I dunno about the last nail but for my mental health i'm not watching till tuesday. Just the thought of watching that blob kicking back, lolling about on the sofas while the others battle for immunity through one humiliating game after another is making my blood pressure rise.

Emma is doing well but this show could ruin her.

Emma is doing well but this show could ruin her. I have watched BB from the start and the no outside contact a joke now. Where is the fun as tasks meant to cause friction. I seriously now have had enough
I love BB
I've watched every series.
I've moaned, complained, laughed and cheered but I have always stuck with it.
But now I've getting to the point where, I wonder why I bother.
When Gemma Collins, can do what she wants, when she wants....lay in bed all day, refuses to do tasks, gets things sent into the house for her, is friends with one of the producers.............and gets away scot free.........and then is saved in the top 3........well............I've lost all my enthusiasm for the show

BB7 was the last truly relevant series. Post Shilpa-gate, it never fully recovered.
I thought BB had learned a lesson re giving immunity after the Helen Wood fiasco. Mind you, I have a horrible feeling that her Essex fans would have kept her in the show anyway.
