Ladbrokes odds:

PJ: 2/9 (F)
Kate: 3/1

Ok, so Kate's odds aren't great, but when according to DS there's only about 10% in it, it could be an easy sway for the betting rings..

We've seen some major swings this year.

If Kate gets evicted, I suppose You'll have Graham Norton and RI:SE to thank for that.

As much as I want to see Kate stay, if I see Graham Norton telling people to evict her, I'll stick a small bet on her to go.

At a rough guess, RI:SE, Graham Norton and definitely Chris Moyles will be supporting Kate to stay in the house this week.

I would NOT trust the DS poll it has suddenly swung from a steady 60/40 to 50/50 for no apparent reason. Someone must have rigged it. Does anyone know any better polls?

I hope RISE run one in the morning.

Moyles is a foregone conclusion

RI:SE and Norton are much more up in the air IMO.

Mark on RI:SE has been lusting after Kate for a while now and I really can't see any reason why they would back PJ.

He's a very confused man, but last week he was going on about Kate quite a bit.

I think both of the girls on RI:SE like Kate as well. Wouldn't surprise me if Norton wants another girl out. He loves his Alex so much as well.

The poll here is clearly being rigged by an Alex fan. His popularity has suddnely gone up as well as Kate now overtaking PJ in the eviction poll.

The MSN poll has PJ on about 78% to go. I don't know how reliable that one is though.

I would totally discount the DS poll at the moment. A vote is being cast roughly every 5 seconds for PJ, clearly someones attempt at 'hacking' it.

The poll has been taken down due to a concerted attempt by some people to rig the results, going both ways.

Could I suggest adapting the poll script to block IP addresses rather than place a cookie?

I have to admit I don't see much of RI:SE (I'm on a noon-4am schedule at the moment), so can't really judge how they'll go, so I'll take your word for it

Interesting to note that Kates odds at betfair also suddenly worsened, but since the DS poll was pulled have now swung back. Just a coincidence or maybe DS had some influence?

Why would they lust after anybody else with the gorgeous Kirsty Gallagher in the same studio?

dunno why anyone would want to vote for the lovely kate either. unless it's tactical. neither of them are hateful characters are they? i wont be voting. be funny to see davina announcing that only 12 votes have been cast instead of the usual 2 million! endemol will be bankrupted!

I smell a rat and as much as it pains me, im betting on kate to be evicted, the odds are too big and the polls suggest a narrow finish, ideal for a betting scam!

The big brother online poll has been hacked too, and they have left a message ''Loser' Infiltrates Polls'. Why does anyone want to rig the polls, I don't know. They are just for fun!

I hope the link works:

(hehe,only messing with ya)

I tend to agree with what you say.

If there hasn't been an absolute definite favourite in recent nominations, nothing went to plan.

Alison was meant to survive.
Spencer was meant to survive.
Jade was meant to go.

I suppose it depends how much more popular than P.J., Kate is.
If she's outstandingly popular, P.J. would go.
However, if she isn't........well anything could happen. Past experience has told us this.

P.J. is getting more popular, the longer he's in there. I remember the time when it was he who was to be lynched.

If Kate goes, I can see the chance of Jade winning BB3 as a distinct possibility. Especially with those in the media of which support her now.

No really, not only PJ is getting popular but Jade as well is getting popular!! And yes, as it is I wouldn't rule out Jade winning BB3. Hey 3 weeks is a long time to have things dramatically change. Just imagine if the other HMs start to seriously bully her, she will be with victim, i.e the winner.

Big brother online poll seems to be ok now. Here are the lastest results with Kate and PJ:

7th EvictionWho do you want evicted this Friday? [1411 votes total]


Kate (313) 22%
PJ (1098) 78%

Now that seems realistic if you ask me.

The results from previous poll evictions are usually right on that website.
