I'm afraid Big Brother has reduced itself once again to being an utterly corrupt show that can only be watched by somewhat corrupt people. Count the ways they have tried to help Lewis this week...
1. Changing the voting format to Vote to Save (failed)
2. Giving Cameron the power to evict, meaning Lewis, whatever happened was never going anywhere
3. Changing the nominations process so that he's almost guaranteed to not be up next week
I can see why people think Lewis is a good housemate, but this is the sort of stuff that has just alienated the viewers over the years. Many of them can't even see what's going on here, but they know the "twists" are getting so confusing they just can't be bothered anymore and it's all because they have to twist the show out of recognition to get the results they want, which in this case, is keeping Lewis in for as long as possible.
The beginning of the end for Big Brother on Channel 5 was the series with Helen. They could have taken that stupid free pass to the final ticket away from her as punishment for her bad behaviour at any time, but they wanted her there until the end even though she was putting a lot of people off. They constantly got viewers to vote in things and then did the opposite anyway (Ashleigh was voted the power housemate and somehow ended up for eviction). They started evicting people without any public vote whatsoever so people you just voted to save were now in danger of going and you could do nothing about it. And then the worst decision ever made - they brought Helen back for the following series where she ended up calling a popular housemate a rapist.
The fact is, it's not Channel 5 who are the worst enemy of this show. It's the production team themselves who just make one bad decision after another that alienates viewers or just confuses them. Either way, they stick with the current series they're watching (though many switch off), but they decide they can't be bothered when the next one starts.
