There has been much mention of this on other forums, on radio and a massive email campeign today that there is a movement gathering speed to protest about the mis-management of our beloved Big Brother.

The best way to protest to the makers would be to switch off. However that is cutting our own noses to spite our faces. So the next best thing is to starve the makers of their weekly vote revenue by abstaining.

So this week has been declared 'National BB No Vote Week'... Dont vote this week.

BB already know of the movement!.

[COLOR=red]Join today dont phone that vote in, lay off the texting. have a break buy a kit kat - or something similar worth 25p[/COLOR]

Ohhhhhhh...I'm going to have to sit on my hands to resist voting for Kate.

God your about the 5th person to say 'don't vote'. It will be my decision on whether I decide to vote this week or not, and will not be infulenced by anyone. Seeming as I don't think BB has done anything wrong, it will be more then likely that i WILL vote.

Well if you promise not to vote Kate then I wont vote PJ

Nice.

(also sitting on his hands now)

*YAWN"

Scoff yee not!

Read the papers, listen to the radio, read the forums, compare to BB2. This series has been one production mistake after another. This weekends latest fiasco has tipped the balance for many.

If you are enjoying the series then fine. be a sheep - happy voting.

However the outlook for the chances of a a BB4 are becoming slimmer by the day. The makers need a shaking or a sacking. people power is the only thing they will give respect to.

That last statement is rediculous...

Channel 4 signed a 4 year deal, they paid for four years worth of rights... the viewing figures are at an all time high, twice they've set record voting totals... can you really see them not making a BB4?

No, but if this year's anything to go by, I can see them making a giant hash of BB4.

i'd like to know where these viewing figures are taken from

nobody has asked me if i watch it. i think these viewing figures are a load of tosh.

I'm not going to vote purely because its PJ and Kate. Now had it of been Tim or Jade NO amount of pleading would of stopped me. I agree it was a bad task and had the second envelope said it was reversed Ie the others up for noms I would of been happy

Ratings are taken from BARB (http://www.barb.co.uk)...to quote:

Viewing estimates are obtained from panels of television owning households representing the viewing behaviour of the 24+ million households within the UK. The panels are selected to be representative of each ITV and BBC region.

Panel homes are selected via a multi-stage stratified and unclustered sample design. This ensures that the panel is fully representative of households across the whole of the UK. Each panel is maintained against a range of individual and household characteristics (panel controls). As the estimates for the large majority of the panel controls are not available from Census data it is necessary to conduct surveys (Establishment Survey) to obtain this information.

In other words, they are totally independant, and to a large degree accurate, and certainly not "a load of tosh"
