Im asking mainly the die hard-core BB fans whom have watched show since BB1

So, way back when, IF the HMs exited, at their own accord, they would be out. Labelled a walker, no ifs no buts.

Today, it seems to happen every series. What do you prefer? How would you have felt if any of the ones this series cracking that fire-exit lock, were now gone gone gone? Because yup, they sure would be if Davina and ch4 had anything to do with it.

It seems the HMs are told to fake exits, to beef the story line. I believe Lisa (Mario's Girl) was the first to experience revolving door syndrome back in 2008. (she broke fire exit lock and walked -- it caused a great ooohaaa at the time.

Do you mind that the HMs walk straight back in, as if nothing had happened?

I have watched since series 1 and I'm trying to remember how many breakouts there were in the early days. One that sticks in my mind was Sandy BB3. He may not have been the first though....

It certainly seems to happen more now and probably due to the fact that they are allowed to return if they want to. So create a bit of drama get some airtime but don't lose your place.

In answer to your question, I think that anyone that breaks out should automatically lose their place!

I think they should lose their place too - no eviction interview, no place on the final night show either.

They are mostly such die-hard wannabees, if they really believed that they would lose their place, the wouldn't walk in the first place. It;s just tedious now.

I know. Big Brother soon takes them to the Diary Room to issue them with warnings for the slightest indiscretion yet as soon as they think they're going to lose one of their ratings winners, they're sitting them down with a cup of tea and convincing them to stay.

There should be one firm rule - you break out and you're gone.

Yes, if they leave then good riddance.

BB is a parody of itself now, with more and more overtly desperate slobs who would sell their babies and their gran if it got them any of column inches, a free boob job or a slot on Jeremy Kyle

But we all know what it has become and it is still quite fun to watch

Have to agree with everyone who is saying out is out.
No return.
No interview.
No spin off shows.
Like Sandy disappearing over the roof never to be seen again.....*careful Sandy*

Was Sandy the one that peed in the kitchen bin as a parting gift?

She'd been ejected, and she refused to leave and they joined in her rebellion

Then BB started reducing the prize money and they couldn't get her out quickly enough

That's right although I think it was more she refused to come inside from the garden or something like that and they started reducing the prize pot. Cannot for the life of me remember if she actually walked or how she did it.

Remember Glyn from BB7 getting on the BB roof. He was punished.
Wasn't he put up for eviction?

She had been evicted and was refusing to leave, the other HMs were on board with her until they found out the prize money was reducing by the second!

Just seen the other replies, ejected is a better way to describe her exit than evicted.

Nope, he was locked in the bedroom and forbidden to vote Lea Nikki Grace or Mikey back in

All over underwear

Forced open the fire exit and scuffled with two big security guards telling them to eff off several times

That's right he wanted new underpants brought in didn't he or something like that.

BB refused to give in to his demands for fresh underwear so he p'd off out the fire exit

I'd go a step futher and say anyone who threatens to walk should be evicted. it should be 100% unceremonious, and the only acknowledgement should be a BB announcing to the house that the contestant has left. They would have previously signed a contract forbidding them from talking about their experience publicly, so no cashing in whatsoever.

The way things are now it makes a mockery of the Big Brother totalitarian control backdrop.

That was one of the most staged things I've ever seen on BB. Funniest part was when Leo tried to give the camera the finger and got muddled up with his fingers


Leo really was a knob of the highest order.
