100,000 down on last week and there was an extra day this week as well. Ouch.

Also the lowest voting figures of the series.

Of the 576,965 votes cast, 267,541 (46%) voted for Gos, 206,079 (36%) voted for Nush and 103,345 (18%) voted for Ray.

smashing news

lets make sure its under 500,000 next week

I made a comment about this being the lowest figure on record... and considered this to include the Saturday's eviction too.

I can find it if you like..?

Gregorian "Can't watch, won't watch", where are you now when you are really needed?

Oh, I know where you are. You're down the pub. See you later for your comment. Just don't post in "TV Ratings Plunge". It doesn't belong in there. Create a new thread or something and keep bumping that up...

Please reply in this thread...
...I promise I won't dare enter again.

I'll save you the trouble. The first ever eviction (Sada) had 387,000 votes.

Thanks munkeee for the speedy service.

Gosh this is truly abysmal, especially given the extra day of voting.

One in the eye for Endemol -- well done everyone

Nice one and added to last night's loss of advertising cash this gets better and better!

What is it with Scott? He hovers like an undertaker and people call Cameron creepy......

Well it's rather because no one *hates* Gos, the girls fancy Ray and Nush hasn't really done that much wrong

Next week if Lisa is up she'll get quite a few voties... And in the final week, Scott, Ray and Cameron will get a lot of votes to win. In fact they'd be better off changing the voting system as of next week to that, they'll make more money

Thats a shocking figure when you consider this time last year there were 3.2million votes cast when Adelle was evicted. No wonder they kept voting open today.

Memories The show was in full swing this time last year, now its just dying a slow death

I knew that already. Thank you anyway. And I didn't even intimate that this would be the lowest in history etc etc

It was actually mystic_nutmeg that imparted that figure to me but I thought it was 393,000...

...I'll have to check!

576,965 this week. Voting normally takes place over 3.5 days. this time it was 4.5. So the pro rata vote is 576,965 / 4.5 * 3.5 = 448,751 without the extra days voting. Which is frankly a disaster for endemol.

BB must be regretting intensly the double eviction. Short term votes for long term loss. Incredibly short sighted of them.
Clearly, after Jon and Feds eviction a lot of people have lost intest in voting.

I'm Happy Hope this teaches Endermol a lesson not to get greedy doing double evictions in future.

I'm shocked that there are still quite so many people prepared to part with their money.
I finally learned my lesson two weeks ago

Pleased as most of the housemates they choose had no backbone. If we have another Big Brother next year the only way to make it work is to make sure they choose some very strong
personalities with fiery tempers. A few like Lisa will do if not we can all say goodbye to Big Brother as they cannot afford another flop like this year.

I wonder if 576,965 will be an average amount fore the voting for the rest of the series, until we vote for the winner.

It'll be interesting to see how many people take part in voting for the winner.

Actually, it was really 397,000 votes as reported by Yourself and I even knew that! Affirmatively!

Thought, I'd try and catch you out...

http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/...hlight=393+000

Why you have to search 393,000 is beyond me...

I reckon the person that wins this year's BB will have the lowest totals (votes wise) out of all the BB's.

Not even the tween vote can possibly save this year's BB.

Figuratively speaking, I meant with BB4 generally. That's why I indeed considered Saturday's eviction. When hazarding my original guess I was being ironic. It was no-brainer guesswork, simply...

I'll enunciate every syllable in future if that helps. And I can...

Excellent news ! Hope this gets the production team sacked, particularly the editors who made certain that the more entertaining HMs got evicted first !

It was really 387,000, I foreshadowed this search for the truth by yourself and deliberating posted the wrong figures last time. I had to make sure people were paying attention, you've passed with flying colours. Well played Holmes.

They haven't even bothered putting a "Has the right person been evicted" voting poll up this week on digital - they are really slipping, or maybe they got saturday off!

Now they have

'Will Lisa be nominated next week?'

Well, not if she wins the task, duh?

Those questions are sooo dumb..
