I'm sorry but this situation is bullsh*t.
Attending the evictions is
compulsory, and even if Pete was ill (with irritable bowel syndrome or whatever) how difficult is it for him to lounge on a sofa? It's no different to him lounging on the bed (which is what he did). It's not like BB were asking him to juggle while riding a unicycle ffs, he just had to sit there.
I suppose the fact that Pete said under no circumstances would he attend the eviction (if he didn't get his coat back) didn't even cross BB's mind when his "illness" suddenly appeared just in time for the eviction.
Plus he was up and about and chatting in the seating area not that long after the others were released from the lounge.
What a miraculous and timely recovery!
