Worst twist in the history of Big Brother.

[iRyan]

I am well and truly outraged.

This has got to be the worst and most unfair twist in the history of Big Brother.

They've taken away half of the prize fund to give it to one of those two mongs for sitting in a ****ing room for 3 days?

So only 1 gets the money and if they chose it they get evicted, yeah? And the other gets a pass to the final? Why would either of them want a pass to the final to win the same amount of money they would for leaving, but now with only a 1/5 chance of winning it? It's so poorly thought out and idiotic.

Fair enough if it's 10,000 or 25,000. But half of the bloody prize fund?

It's completely unfair to the winner that the PUBLIC is voting for.

STOP. ****ING. WITH. THE. PRIZE. FUND.

[Maia]

The Crypt

[Bluerang1]

The Crypt was worse

[reece(:]

The Crypt is on an equal level of ****tiness and rig. Both suck arse and they'll never learn to LEAVE the ****ing prize fund alone. Just because they haven't got their way with who they want to win they mess with the funds.

I totally agree!!!

[Scream]

Hate when they mess with the prize fund.

[Me. I Am Salman]

The crypt was tackier and ****ter, but this is way more unfair.

[Jordan.]

It's far worse than the crypt now, atleast they didn't get money. The whole thing has been a shambles right from them deciding who even got to enter the white room, my interest in it died right then.

[realitytvsux]

It's completely wrong. Is is within the rules? Even if it is, it's morally wrong. I will never watch this programme again. It totally sux!

[Patrick]

The Crypt, All Female Launch and BB11's Quadruple Eviction < far worse.

[iRyan]

Agreed. It's not the White Room i'm on about, it's the money twist. It's completely, 100% unfair. Now the winner only gets 50,000 while one of those idiots gets to walk away with the same amount for doing next to nothing!

[cookiemonster]

it is a bit **** yeh

[JTM45]

It really is like they're purposely trying to destroy the show!
The prize fund should be for 'the winner' and not for some ****ing twonk who the vast majority of the public can't stand.

Abso ****ing lutely disgusting!!!!!!!!!!:mad:

[Bluerang1]

What am I saying? Mollie confused me. This is worse. I was thinking that the Crypt didn't have money involved making it more fair.

[reece(:]

All Female Launch was one of the best twists ever, until the males came :joker:

[Bluerang1]

Then again... the Crypt was kinda pointless. This one is number control. But it's unfair.

Not to mention they're rewarding someone who threatened to punch and sexually violate a fellow (female) housemate.

Normally I'd be the first to look down on the Ofcom brigade but I'm kinda hoping there's a punishment in store for Big Brother now - maybe a hefty fine will set their priorities straight.

Oh, who am I kidding...

[reece(:]

What am I saying? Mollie confused me. This is worse. I was thinking that the Crypt didn't have money involved making it more fair.

The crypt was to try and save their precious Wolfpack but one of them still ended up evicted over another HM that was likely to go.

[iRyan]

The Crypt, All Female Launch and BB11's Quadruple Eviction < far worse.

Maybe I should be more specific, it's the worst twist because it's the most UNFAIR twist. I mean think about it, one of them is walking away with half of the prize fund which is now the same amount the winner gets! It's completely unfair. Especially since more than half of the house wasn't even eligible. It's like "Hey - Scott, Conor, Sara, Luke S, one of you guys gets half the prize fund for getting the least nominations this week from family members! Woo!". It doesn't even make sense.

STOP. ****ING. WITH. THE. PRIZE. FUND.





Totally agree.

Two of the least deserving HM's are in there....this will be a victory for the likes of Becky, Ashleigh and co...
I have watched and voted for what I consider along with 80% of the viewers for the most decent people in there....only for them to walk away after all of this with only half the money with the other half going to one of two people that were never going to win....I feel cheated and I think its disrespectful to the viewers and a very BIG mistake.

[Suze]

It's totally unfair, but more to the paying BB fans than the housemates in the longrun. The housemates get TV exposure, they go in knowing only one of them can win and that going by past BBs the prize money will likely be messed with. But the fans when voting hope this will not be the case yet again and can also see the manipulations that can take place. So it's the fans a little bit moreso than the housemates I feel bad for when BB mess with the show this way. After all, most of the housemates will make some money out of BB, but fans spend their hard earned pennies to keep their favourites in as long as possible just for on the spot twists like this latest one to totally undermine the fans.

[optimisticcynic]

Ridiculous. They should refund every vote this series.

[iRyan]

The public should be the ones who reward housemates with money - not the ****ing producers.

[erinp5]

Tomorrow night Big Brother will offer up the pair an agonising decision that “could change their lives forever”.



Big Brother will give one of the duo the chance to win half of the £100,000 prize money.



But if they accept the deal, they’ll be evicted immediately.



The other will take the free pass onto the final on August 13.



It’s currently unclear how the decision will be made, and whether or not one of the pair will have to take up the offer.



For the uber competitive boys it’s sure to be a tough decision, while they may get the money they’ll miss out on the final, and the potential of winning.



On the other hand, both have received boos from the crowd and so maybe they’ll want to take the money and run out the back door.



It will also mean that tomorrow night’s live show could be a double eviction.



Deana, Luke A, Becky and Ashleigh are all facing the eviction, with the one housemate who receives the fewest public votes also getting the boot.



Live show producer Jamie Sutcliffe remarked: “Tomorrow’s not a cheer night, big characters get big reactions, we’re going to get a lot of boos.”

[Cherie]

The precedent of halfing the money was set last year, so HMs applying for this years show must have expected it unless they are dumb.

There would be very little point having two "nice" HMs fighting it out in the white room, as most would be saying..ah bless they deserve the cash...this causes way more controversy, and dont tell me you wont be tuning in tomorrow night to see how this plays out and have rage against who takes the money.

50K for 9 weeks of sitting on your arse is still nice in anyones language.

Plus Luke S and Conor have both been up for eviction and been saved so they do have some fans... it would have been alot worse had it been someone who had never faced the public vote, and it would have been even worse if it had been Becky...so every cloud.:blush:

[Tregard]

The fact that it's half OF THE PRIZE FUND is what makes it so stupid. If it was separate money, then fair enough, you're playing for double of what you could've taken, but with this, the only thing you could gain is the title, and neither of these guys stand a chance at that.

Thats what makes it interesting, both have said they want to be in the Final for the "experience"....lets see ....

This, it's the fact that they're talking money away from the winner and giving it to someone else which isn't fair.

[Halfwit]

by giving them half of the price money the producers make them basically win bb since they get the same amount than the real bb winner this year, this whole white room has been a bad joke...
everyone who is still throwing money at ch5 after this can't be right in his mind.

Thats what makes it interesting, both have said they want to be in the Final for the "experience"....lets see ....
yeah right... they want the experience of winning the money, which is handed to them now.

[rionablue]

I'm FURIOUS. The WHOLE prize money should go to the housmate the general public crown as their winner. NO WAY should half of it be offered to two of the least deserving, horrible, vain, chauvinistic creeps. FED UP1111111111111

[whocares]

didnt bb tell them before they went into the white room/decided who was going to go in there that they could win a prize that money couldnt buy? lol

[erinp5]

Edward Gleave ‏@Ed_StarOnSunday







If neither Luke S nor Conor take the cash tomorrow night a twist will decide who wins the free pass to the final #bbuk

[Gizmo]

It completely sucks. The show is dead now imo

[reece(:]

They're not getting any more of my money, spiteful bastards.

[Jack_]

Edward Gleave ‏@Ed_StarOnSunday

Would probably just be the other housemates deciding who wins it.

[Jordan.]

The public should be the ones who reward housemates with money - not the ****ing producers.

They can give them money, just not out of the prize fund. We vote for our favourties to get that.

[Black Dagger]

They can give them money, just not out of the prize fund. We vote for our favourties to get that.

This.

I don't mind the twist, even if I dislike them both.

If it was 50k not from the fund, I'd be fine.

[Jack_]

I think the thing about taking it from the fund though is it'll piss the rest of the housemates off (well, you'd think). That's the desired effect I would've thought.

[Patrick]

Maybe I should be more specific, it's the worst twist because it's the most UNFAIR twist.

It's like "Hey - Scott, Conor, Sara, Luke S, one of you guys gets half the prize fund for getting the least nominations this week from family members! Woo!". It doesn't even make sense.

Oh then yes, 100% I agree. It's the most poorly thought out, ******ed up mess they've ever created.

[Patrick]

I honestly don't even think they think like that.

To be completely honest, they are wankers. They could of just gave one of the lads 25K. But HALF the prize fund? :laugh:

It's a kick in the balls. It's a poorly thought out twist.

Had Channel 4 of done this, the public would of voted 3 housemates into the white room - and we'd of been informed right from the start, what was going to happen. OR The Housemates themselves would of nominated 3 housemates, in confidentiality - to compete for the prize.

[Flamingjoe]

I couldn't agree more.

[Jords]

A load of old ****e tbh, very disappointing and Ch5 love to anger their fans for 'controversy'

I could tolerate £25K or even £50K not from the prize money, but this takes the out and out piss.

Shameful.

[anto42]

reminds me of eugene back in bb 6 who took half the prize fund as well

[Jords]

Eugene would have won anyway if he hadnt taken it :love:

Its mainly because of the HMs its being offered to, awarding arseholes that have not been good HMs is disgusting.

I really enjoyed what BB9 did with the Prisoner's dilemma between Lisa and Sara.

STOP. ****ING. WITH. THE. PRIZE. FUND.

Exactly. It doesnt make any sense, its beyond ridiculus.
Even the fricking crypt manages to be better than this sh*t twist.
Last year they also messed with the prize fund, but at least the top 5 got to share it between them...and that was bad. Then imagine wht this year is.
It's like C5 are trying to get it axed.

Absolutely right. It is an utter disgrace and beyond stupid...and on BOTS tonight not one person mentioned that, including Emma. They were all 'what a great twist! so exciting! WTH???

That is quite a valid point there. Usually when they have messed with the prize money in the past, it is only when they are down to the last five or six as far as I can recall. On top of that I don't think they have ever made so many last minute changes to a one task that involves the money especially.

[Patrick]

LOL all the deluded ******tards on their Facebook, arselicking Conor and saying things like;

'GREAT TASK BB. best evaa!1 becky 2 win hehe'

Whilst fat Ian from the Sweaty Box sits on his arse deleting any criticism posted.

[alex_front2]

I though last year was appalling for lost integrity with the poogate cover up and thrn that weird Saturday show which was 90% previously. But these last 2 eps BB has really "jumped the shark".

- mysterious loss of FB voting
- White Room < it flopped in Australia so why redo it?
- Changing WR entry criteria - it originally said HMs with least noms for series incl Adam
- Changing WR exit criteria - it originally said HM could leave off own accord by pressing red button. Then ehen Sara was flaky it changed to HM must leave now
- Advertising Wed as WR:live and BBOTS WR Live
- Dodgy phone lines for Deana

[Suze]

Well if BB think this sort of thing will improve ratings, then I think they are sadly mistaken and will just have more turn off.

[Joe.]

Thing is- back on C4 we were told about a twist after Davina's interview with the housemate ont he friday and then we knew what was going to happen twist wise fully before it did but C5 really seem to be making it all up as they go along- this twist is dire. Yeah Luke S is one of my favorites but why should two housemates who the public have voted for in the past have the option to just leave with £50,000? It makes no sense whatsoever- and they're basically a winner with that amount. It is no difference from leaving with the £50,000 or sticking it out to the end and possibly winning £50,000.

On a par with the Crypt though- that was worse. If I remember correctly Anton and Jay were told they had the most noms and then BB pretended they were both 'evicted' in broad daylight- that was more laughable because nobody even believed it.

[smeagol]

disgusting twist, 50 for winner 50 for who bb chose to get 50 basically . makes me think next series why bother watching if this is how they do things.
words cant express just how poor this white room thing is. and now they basically win the show.
i feel sorry for all the other housemates as they have just been screwed by bb

[HBB1508]

Utter rubbish - it's unfair on the HMs as not all of them were eligible for it and it's unfair on the voting public who spend their money and fund this show - I won't be picking up the phone again as I don't want any of my money going to either of those two in the white room - C5 you have shot yourself in the foot imo.

[billy123]

Jeez they didnt say one of them will win £50k they said they have a chance to lets see how it pans out before crying about it :joker:

Im hoping they offer a few grand and slowly increase it that makes more sense.

[sampvt]

I blame fartface Jamie the producer. He hasnt got a clue and when you think of it.......He has the presenter of the show looking for him, he has the network at work for him, he has millions of viewers looking in, AND NOBODY WANTS HIM, when is the daft twat going to get the message, LOOSER IN LOVE, LOOSER IN LIFE.

CH5 you fu.ked up big time by picking this looser to fly your flag, he could have cost you the series and future support. Kick him out quick and that would be a twist we would all love and respect.

[discotheque]

Conor should be walking out to loud booing - not waltzing off with fifty grand.

just staggering how the producers came up with this travesty :devil:

At the end of the show,Emma said one will have the chance to win 50k and the other will get the golden ticket. They both win. Fu.king rediculous result. Half the prizefund and a free pass given to 2 numptis that should be sitting watching our heros win golds all over the place.

Boos mean nothing! Look at Aaron last year! He was booed every week and he won the money! :dance:

[Macie Lightfoot]

Boos mean nothing! Look at Aaron last year! He was booed every week and he won the money! :dance:

He won the money because of the countless trolls on power voting on Facebook :rolleyes:

[sampvt]

Yep a chance doesnt mean one of them will.

You are right Bob, a chance to win is designed around take or not take the prize but I was trying to emphasise that I didnt hear her say anything about up to 50k. It was just 50k.

The other thing I dont understand is why they are giving 2 prizes, the money and the other gets the pass to the final. It was billed as money or a pass in Aus. Dont you think that with 2 prizes it makes them both impossible to take both. All they need to do is agree who is more likely to win and the other walks and they share the dosh. Thats what I would do. They both cant win and Luke s must be well aware he is about as popular as a fart in a space suit at the moment.

Conor is deluded and thinks he has a chance so in my eyes it is the easiest perdiction this year. Its going to be a damp squid again because the producers have left the decisions in the hands of morons. Also 2 morons that dont deserve a penny in my book.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Conor an win as well if us fans vote like crazy! ;)

No he won't. The only reason that the Facebook voting had such power last year was because it was cheap as ****. Now that the price is at a more logical level, it doesn't hold as much power. And besides, you're Conor's only fan.

[Vanessa]

No he won't. The only reason that the Facebook voting had such power last year was because it was cheap as ****. Now that the price is at a more logical level, it doesn't hold as much power. And besides, you're Conor's only fan.

I'm Conor only fan? Are you serious? Have you seen the Conor fan thread? :joker:

[Yayita]

I am really annoyed at this, first time I am seriously pissed off at this TV show. I've never seen such blatant disregard to the viewing public. I am not even in the UK but I am taking it personally LOL

[Vanessa]

I hope Conor takes the money. I know i would! It's 50 grand! :o:o:o

[Macie Lightfoot]

I'm Conor only fan? Are you serious? Have you seen the Conor fan thread? :joker:

Can't have that many fans if he's was in the bottom half of the four way vote Week 5 and the eight way vote Week 8.

[Vanessa]

Can't have that many fans if he's was in the bottom half of the four way vote Week 5 and the eight way vote Week 8.

He still has enough fans for him to be saved 4 times! :cheer2:

Grodner (US producer) still holds the record for blatant disregard of the viewing public. Especially with what was pulled in the lastest episode. She sure timed it right so that the BBUS and BBUK fans have two things to be pissed off at :joker:

[Macie Lightfoot]

Im just waiting to see how it pans out first though before ranting it might not be as bad as it seems at the moment.

Fair enough if it's 10,000 or 25,000. But half of the bloody prize fund?

It's completely unfair to the winner that the PUBLIC is voting for.

STOP. ****ING. WITH. THE. PRIZE. FUND.

i think it is completely unfair to the voting public who are spending money voting for their favorite.

[thesheriff443]

first of all its not your 50 grand they may give away tonight!
second its your choice if you want to vote for housemates!
and third a 100 grand is too much to stay in a house for a few weeks.

[Vanessa]

i think it is completely unfair to the voting public who are spending money voting for their favorite.

They did it last year as well. Not fair on the winner at all! :(

[Mason]

Where did everyone get the hole £50k from it might not even be trough !!!!!!!!!

*******igh is going tonight if it a double it would be trashligh and beccie !!!

[Vanessa]

*******igh is going tonight if it a double it would be trashligh and beccie !!!

I want Becky to go. She's really annoying me. But Ash would do! :tongue:

[Marmalite]

I totally agree with OP.

It's ludicrous.... what the ****ing point is telling 2 HMs who have been stuck in a room and being fed and having to do basically nothing but sleep and make idle convos that you can take the £50,000 now and leave the show (and benefit from early mag deals) or go back and fight it out amongst 4 other HMs win the the remaining £50,000. I mean seriously it's a ****ing no brainer really isn't it?

What I can't understand as well is why (unless it was masterminded and a fix) they chose Luke S and Conor to go into the white room. It was ****ing obvious that Scott would bail within 5 seconds especially if he didn't have Becky or his make-up to keep him happy and sane and then Sara clearly wouldn't last with cold camp side showers and no make-up or female company. Why not wait until this eviction was over and let them all get a chance by picking keys into the white room or do it a lot more fairly than it is. It was advertised as the best mentally challenging twist in BB so far - is it ****!

They missed one of the best opportunities by locking up HMs like Deana, Becky and Sara or even Adam, Ashleigh and Scott for 4 days - WTF happened? Who thinks up this **** and then wrecks it by stupid decisions of who competes? Almost every task as been HMs must decide - that's Bull **** BB start stirring the **** to get some action and entertainment for your viewers who pay for it!

I just can't understand why they keep on messing with the prize money and giving free tickets to finals to HMs who don't deserve it - nobody should get a free ticket. The prize money twist sucked last year but at least it was done pretty fairly amongst the remaining HMs. The free ticket twist has sucked every time!

I totally agree with OP.

It's ludicrous.... what the ****ing point is telling 2 HMs who have been stuck in a room and being fed and having to do basically nothing but sleep and make idle convos that you can take the £50,000 now and leave the show (and benefit from early mag deals) or go back and fight it out amongst 4 other HMs win the the remaining £50,000.

Because the show wants Conor or Luke S to win. They fit better with the kind of shows channel 5 makes. :)

No im not a fan of messing with the prize fund during the run of a series it is crap when people have been spending their own money voting for who they want to take the money only for BB to intervene and give some of it to someone else it stinks.
Im just waiting to see how it pans out first though before ranting it might not be as bad as it seems at the moment.

Your patience is a virtue Bobnot, but I bet you that if it turns out ****, you will blow your top LOL

Yes, the show wants Conor and Luke S to win. That explains their objectively bad edits for the past month and more.

Yeah, they are rubbish too...

Give me a break please.

Every single HM has had good and bad edits. Perhaps there have been some more than others but that's just because those that haven't are complete twonks in real life too and the video editors aren't ****ing miracle workers and can only do so much to assist.

[Becker]

I wish I hadn't bothered watching catch up at all or the series. One of those dogs is gonna walk away with 50k it's a joke. I give in with it

I actually cannot believe this! Stupid ****ers

A decent editing job can make sinners look like saints, it happens time and time again. My point is that if Luke S and Conor were really the "chose ones" and the show really wanted them to win, C5 would've done a lot better of a job at editing them because they've gotten extremely negative edits for a long time now.

[Becker]

So regardless of winning you will always know that a complete undeserving twat walked away with the same money as you did for winning it ... Duuuuuuuuuhhhhhh !!!!

The way BB has gone downhill over the years is what finally decided me not to watch this series and any more that might happen along. The forums are much more fun, interesting and wittier than BB usually :D Just reading here and joining in the fun now and then is much better for the blood pressure :D because on the whole you just don't care who stays or goes or even wins :D ;) I do feel for the BB fans who get played so much by BB though.

[Marc]

What was The Crypt? :suspect:

[Marc]

Also, I don't agree with this twist, it's lame

[Munchkins]

I wish the twist had been £25,000, would make more logical sense, since they would have a gamble
refuse the 25k, at the chance of 75k?
but with the 50k, its pointless not taking it, since even if you win the final you will only earn the same

[mirak_eel]

Said to my mate last night, this isn't even a task. It's a desperate act of favouritism.
Last year, they did everything they could to make sure Jay came out of the series smelling of roses. The heavy editing in his favour, the crypt twist so he didn't get evicted, and the prize fund being split. All of it failed, and Aaron royally screwed the system up and won.
This year, they're trying to make sure it doesn't happen again. In my opinion, they've obviously hand picked Conor as their favourite/golden boy. They've now realised that no matter what they do, Conor isn't liked enough to win, so they've came up with this task to make sure that even if Conor doesn't win, he still comes out with a chunk of change.
Expect Conor to win tonight and leave with that 50k.

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

Watching this is absolute torture

[Nedusa]

I'm just catching up with BB and just when I thought BB couldn't ******* this programme up any worse than they have done...low and behold now I'm hearing they are going to give 50% of the prize money to a HM whilst the show is still in progress with 9 HM still in contention.

Really....!!!!! so I have a question has anyone on the BB production team ever actually watched Big Brother, seriously !!! for this is NOT a twist, this is NOT a clever or cunning ploy.

This is the latest in a long line of stupid, ill-conceived, badly thought out ideas that have ruined this series and now risk complete meltdown of whats left of the show.

This makes a complete mockery of Big Brother, Big Brother contestants have to WIN THE SHOW TO WIN THE PRIZE MONEY not get offered large slices of the prize fund for completing/winning a task against 1 other HM. Sheer lunacy......

What's the incentive to apply for this show if not to win the "life changing" prize (100K)

Too angry to write any more................

[boomoo]

I totally agree!!!

But poor Connor wants it for a house deposit.
But will he take it?
They would be mad not to take the money because Celebrity BB starts 2 days after the final of BB so no chance of filling newspapers now. No real money to be made after the show.
Real manipulation though.

Yes but it was the choice of housemates to go in the white room. To be fair it should have been the housemates who had polled the least noms over the series. Not Connor with his pile of noms.
