Erm...Conor and the button

[Vicky.]

Just watched the youtube vid of this again, and it seems Conor was willing to let Luke s have the money?

He said to him to hit the button at 40. Then when it hit 40k he stepped back and put his hands on his head, giving Luke the chance.

Luke just stood there like a plank, even when the 5 sec countdown started so Conor then hit the button. Luke only went to hit it after he saw Conor do so.

I think I now understand Conors decision a bit more now (even though I would have took the 50k anyway). If neither had pressed it, they would have been stuck in the white room for longer, and NEITHER would have got the 50k.

[reece(:]

He also said he pressed in spite of Luke's greed and willing to throw Ash for the money.

I agree! And why was Luke S counting mississippi down? :crazy:

[Vicky.]

He also said he pressed in spite of Luke's greed and willing to throw Ash for the money.

I havent watched his interview...as I really dont want to see anymore of him.

But with the button thing, he ended with me on the best impression he possibly could, given the circumstances :p

[MTVN]

Yeah and Conor was also trying to talk to him asking what they should do and whether he was gonna press it but Luke S was just too busy with his mississippi's

[Jords]

Luke S greed lost him the money

[JamesBond]

I'm lazy - same thoughts as what I said on Luke's reaction. LOL

[chuff me dizzy]

I still laugh when i think of Luke saying to Conor as he walked out with the cash"If that was mine, it would be half yours" or words to that effect ,and no reply from Conor ,Class !!!!!

Funniest quote of the week! Luke S was desperate for that money! :laugh3:

You should check it out, it was interesting what he said about Luke S

Oh and it's not too long, I think it's shorter than the normal interviews.

[MTVN]

They said they'd have a minute to push the button so he was trying to count it to make sure he didn't miss out

[Vicky.]

From what I have heard, he was trying to justify his Deana rant and pass it off as nothing, so watching it would just wind me up tbh :joker:

[Marc]

Both guys were a bit stupid, they didn't talk it out properly.

Lol he didn't do that at all, he couldn't really have been more apologetic

The look on Conors face was priceless :joker::joker:

Im sure :whistle:

[Vanessa]

While he was counting Conor got fed up and pressed the button! :laugh:

[MTVN]

Im sure :whistle:

I'm not even joking though, it's only a few minutes you have to watch :nono:

[Vanessa]

Both guys were a bit stupid, they didn't talk it out properly.

Conor told Luke S to take 40 grand, but he didn't press the button. He gave him every chance of taking the money. But he just kept counting! :hugesmile:

[Vicky.]

Ok watched the interview and wish i hadnt, as before he had ended on a high with me :laugh:

He was far from apologietic IMO and it just seemed like damage control. Brian worded his question well ;) 'Apologising' to those who may have found it offensive, yet I doubt he will ever apologise to the one it was actually directed at. He still seemed to think it was nothing important though, which was my main problem with the whole thing from the very beginning. In short, it was just the same as his diary room 'apology'

He may have been different on BOTS, but I dont watch that ****e(except when they promise me twists :nono: ) so will leave it at that

[MTVN]

Now you just need to see the BOTS interview then Vicky

[reece(:]

He was a little different after a debriefing on what to say on BOTS. Don't bother

[chuff me dizzy]

He came over a lovely bloke, and when you watched his best bits ,you can see he was a great hm8

In my opinion, he didnt. But thats the beauty of opinions :tongue:

[Gillian-73]

:joker:

Yeah, i was like, what the hell?!?

Lol! it's what some people do when counting, Mississippi is supposed to take a second to say. Just a rough guide when counting is all.

It's totally Luke's fault, silly boy

[Me. I Am Salman]

Why did Luke S keep saying that mississippi thing?

[Marc]

I like how Conor's name has been mentioned just as much as Deana's during this BB making him a very memorable housemate, like or dislike him.

[Marc]

Why did Luke S keep saying that mississippi thing?

I think he was trying to count and see how many seconds they had left to claim the money. And when it hit 50k and the 5-4-3-2-1 countdown started they both panicked and well.. You know the rest.

It's silly though because he started to count when they were about 20 seconds into the minute :tongue:

Nope, cant be tempted to watch BOTs Im afraid :laugh: he was likely prepped before that show anyway, as the rest all are..so I wouldnt take that as proof he was sorry anyways :p

Edward Gleave ‏@Ed_StarOnSunday

Interviewed BB's Conor this morning - full explosive chat in tomorrow's Daily Star Sunday. He came across as a lovely guy. Not.

Should be interesting though...

I know the star make up ****e, but they arent allowed to 'quote' someone saying something they didnt say

[joeysteele]

I found him to be apologetic but admired his further honesty that he and Deana really just clashed.
He was wrong to make the comment,it was one comment and he will be pilloried for it for all time likely, however show me the person who hasn't made a comment or said in temper something they greatly regretted doing so and there would be a Saint,who I don't personally think exist.

However Deana has been greatly wrong too by starting to plot and scheme the downfall of other housemates often with blatant lying behind peoples backs, she is not Miss Innocent either.

However Conor did give Luke S every chance to get near all that 50k,I thought they were both going to miss it actually,I was amazed Luke S didn't press once it crossed over to the 40k+ mark.

I know! Conor even asked Luke what he wanted to do, but he never answered! He was too busy staring at the 50 grand! :joker:

[Knitting Nana]

Conor defo said 'hit it at 40' .... However ... as the countdown after it reached 50k began conor already had both hands on the stand either side of the buzzer and as luke raised his hand right up to press, conor slid his hands a bit and pressed. Luke clearly didnt see this and thought it was his press that had got the money. So while connor gave luke every chance he was sly about it in the end. Thats fine, but his attitude once he realised he'd won was completely '***** you'. 'Thats for me and the missus, dont you worry, dont worry about anything', 'but I am worried'.

And as for ashleigh - luke's only known her for 7 or 8 weeks, what possible difference would that make, especially as he'd see her in a week or two anyway??

I don't think that was him being sly - he just hand his hands there and Luke was dumb to have his hands behind his back. Conor gave him a chance to hit the buzzer at 40K and Luke did not take it because he was greedily waiting for more cash. Between 40 and 50K, Conor must have decided to go for it thinking why give up this money to someone who does not even give a damn about a girl who happened to be Conor's friend.

Also, I don't think his comments were made to rub it in Luke's face. I think he was shocked. Luke S' comments were more telling as he thought about himself not getting any money. Isn't this the same Luke who picked a bachelor show over a couple show and told Conor about it?

Luke and Conor are from separate walks of life and I'm not going to fault a guy who decides to take the money to make a better life for himself. He thought about his girlfriend first. When Luke was given a chance to pick a show format - single or couple - he thought about himself only.

[flamingGalah!]

He came over a lovely bloke, and when you watched his best bits ,you can see he was a great hm8

:conf: :shocked: :laugh2:

Now I know you are definitely taking the pi** :joker:

[Marmalite]

Nah Conor was always going to hit the button he was just waiting until the very end as he wanted the whole 50k and not 40 or 30.

Luke was fighting with himself on what to do (take the money and look like a twat as everyone will realise he really was faking it with Trash-Ash or carry on the fauxmance and not have an easy way out). He then decided to press it at the last minute and so raised his hand as the 5 second countdown started.

Conor saw him raise his hand to hit the button and proved that he doesn't give a **** about Luke S or anyone else and beat him to it.

Conor was always going to press the button and so was Luke it just came down to the quickest draw and who believed who the most. Luke believed that getting to the final was more important to Conor than walking out the door with the money - what a chump!

Can't blame him as I would've done exactly the same!

[Scream]

I don't remember Luke S pressing it cause he saw Conor going to press it. I thought they both just went for it on the countdown

[Vicky.]

I posted about this earlier and just re-watched it. Conor had said for three days that he wanted to go to the final and the money didn't matter.

Luke thought that Conor was definitely out of it and waited to press the button right at the end to get the full £50K. Coner told him to go at £40K, Luke, assumed that this was support

Conor hit the button and then Luke hit it. At first Luke didn't realise that Conor had even hit the button. Conor cheated and lied to his friend.

But Conor did not know about the money twist then, he though he was playing for a ticket to the final, a ticket Luke S would never have given him.So when he spoke about getting to the finals that was the prize going.There was no money.

Only last night was the money introduced.Luke S was given the chance at 40k and he went for more.He was too slow and lost out and he knows it.Conor tried to get him to share etc, but no answer.This a guy who would not share protein powder.
His greed lost him the cash, nothing else.

Yeah exactly, I'm glad Adam pointed that out that he wasn't contradicting himself because the money had never been factored into the equation before

[Beastie]

They both wanted the money. Conor got their first. That's it.

You are wrong actually, Conor admitted that he 'sucked him in', Conor's own words on BOTS. Luke said Conor was a 'Lying bastard', 'Why did you do that to me' and that Conor ‘played’ him'.

Conor said he was not interested in money for three days, money is money; he said he wanted to go to the final. He didn't 'give him the chance', he wasn't controlling the game, he said go at £40K and Luke was focusing on getting the maximum. Conor cheated him, simple as that and admitted it, end of story.

[sarakss]

People always say 'they don't care about the money', but when it comes within reach, it's a different story. Conor did nothing wrong - Luke S is a selfish prick and had been that way since day 1.

I'm glad it happened to him, too, maybe he'll learn to be less greedy. He's shown himself to be a selfish jerk the entire series.

He won't share his protein powder and that's one of the reasons Benedict pranked him.

During the luxury shopping task, it took him over an hour to decide whether or not he could see who nominated him. Over an hour for 5 points. Lauren spent less than 5 minutes deciding to visit with her sister and Luke spent less than that deciding whether to speak to his wife. Over an hour - what an imbecile!

When Adam asked that they spend more money on cigarettes since there were less HGs, he refused. This is the person who got protein powder from a task all HGs contributed to yet he can't spend more on cigarettes for HGs.

Glad he didn't "get no money."

LOL - funniest line ever.

Yes Luke S is an *rsehole who's got a lot to learn, but you can't say 'Conor did nothing wrong' unless you think it's okay to lie and to cheat your friends.

[cell]

Conor had his hands on the podium even tho BB said they couldn't touch the podium or button. I am surprised it flew....

[sarakss]

They were not friends. Conor was friends with Ashleigh, not Luke S. No biggie though - I don't get £1 of the money, but I get to laugh at Luke. :joker:

[jyunga]

I havent watched his interview...as I really dont want to see anymore of him.

But with the button thing, he ended with me on the best impression he possibly could, given the circumstances :p

You should watch his interview and him on BOTS. He's actually comes off pretty decent now that he's outta that house. It's a shame so many poeple are going to only remember him for the epilator comment and his hatred for Deana.

[SharkAttack]

Loved the result of yesterday's eviction as well as Conor winning the 50K. Indirectly made Luke S. look like a bit of an ass. Luke could have been out of the house without an emotional goodbye from Ashleigh, money to spend, and a week ahead of the others to go out and plunder the female masses. Glad he blinked. :)

[rocket]

Neither deserved this money....The BB viewers were not allowed to vote who went into the white room..all HM's not nominated should have been in there...biggest farce and fix ever....

[Kizzy]

Exactamundo!

[Becker]

I was never happy about either of them walking off with prize money and that feeling still remains. Both wanted to be in the final and delusional enough to think they could win it which still amazes me.

Luke S lol, his face in that hug with Conor and the strangled whimpering 'I .. I thought you wanted to be in the final .. ' as he realised the horror of his mistake.

What's really funny is had he forgotten last week so quickly? I mean, down to the last two with Caroline, effectively letting him know how unpopular he is on the outside. That he had / has NO chance of winning! No wonder he was distraught Pmsl

As for Conor what a lucky man he is. Surviving evictions purely through blind chance that he was up against equally abhorrent creatures as himself. I'm glad he is gone along with no mark Becky and will be very happy never to see either of their putrid antics ever again.

Conor may be £50,000 better off but no amount of back tracking, lame apologies or smarm will ever shed the tag of being a vile, nasty piece of work who shouldn't have been in the house at this stage anyway.

Done

BB viewers don't ever vote as to who does what tasks anyway.

After all had they been insistent enough,it could gave been Scott and Sara left in the white room not Conor and Luke S, had Scott said he definately was up for it, and Sara too, then Luke S and Conor would have had to decide which of them didn't go in.

No fix,it just depended on who went in at first and none of them knew what the task was even going to be anyway,any one of 4 housemates had the chance to get this offer not just those 2.

Why would luke S and conor have to choose between sara and scott?...As I have said before if there were 3 places why make the decision between 4?...why change the rules from least noms to least noms that week?
Because they were desprate to get conor in that room.

Exactly.

BB had the 3 with the least nom's, Sara, Luke s, Scott. BB then opened it up to the least 4, then told them to reduce it back to 3.

That whole charade was so that BB could include Conor in the ****E Room.

[joeysteele]

It still could have not gone that way had Scott and Sara been eager and insisted on going into the white room, Scott was the first person to speak and he said he didn't want to do it.

Had he said he really did, that could have been him and Sara definately going in,making the decisions first and then Luke S and Conor deciding which of them went in too.

In that scenario it could have been Scott and Luke S or even Scott and Sara ending up who competed for the free pass and the possible 50k.
That could have happened very easily had Scott said he really wanted to go in there.

BB chose the 4 from the noms that week to be eligible to go in but not which 3 of them actually went in.
Had both Scott and Sara gone in, they could have been the dominant 2 in the white room themselves.
Also had Scott and Sara(which she did), done that, it may well have been Luke S that still went in and not Conor even in the picture.
BB didn't know for sure how it would go really.

[MrWong]

Scott and Sara showed they were the least competitive hm's in the box endurance task. BB knew they wouldn't be arsed about the ****e room.

Holding the box endurance task a few days before the ****e room endurance task was very convenient, for BB.

I still don't think it was fair, not one little bit and if I were scott I would be furious!
when the prize was so huge 50k or a ticket to the final was at stake, BB should have made the selection process fairer than just letting them decide who didn't go in...
Had scott known what he would be playing for of course he would have liked the chance to try for it.
As it was he was just given the option of being trapped in a room with conor and luke S which would be my idea of hell!

[MTVN]

Not much of a surprise twist if you explain what's going to happen 3 days beforehand

[joeysteele]

Scott and Sara showed they were the least competitive hm's in the box endurance task. BB knew they wouldn't be arsed about the ****e room.

Holding the box endurance task a few days before the ****e room endurance task was very convenient, for BB.

Sara did want to go in though,she was up for going in,no one knew what it would entail, both Scott and Sara had the equal chance to go in and none of them had any idea what the prize for going in at the end would be.

Just as with Luke S hesitating and not pressing the button at a good level of about 40k, Scott who I really like, didn't even try to go in,so hesitated and missed out by his own fault no one elses.

Adam had done really well for instance in the endurance task before but with the full knowledge of what prize he was standing on. However Scott going into the white room with Sara, I could have seen them doing okay in there really as to what they had to do and they had to do most of the things outside the white room the same almost as those in there anyway.

[Saigon1]

Both guys were a bit stupid, they didn't talk it out properly.

Not really as Conner walked out with 50k, neither of them pressing it would make them both a bit stupid.

THE END.

And they'll keep losing audience while they are so incompetant at doing it.

[halfacrown]

And they'll keep losing audience while they are so incompetant at doing it.

This is the series where 'Who wins? You decide' became 'Who wins? We decide'. The fact that BB makes the rules becomes a problem when they are unfair to some of the housemates, right under the noses of the viewers.

Let's not pretend that this was another simple task; half the prize money was at stake and it was given to a cheat and a liar, who had already made disgusting and unacceptable remarks about another housemate. The viewer’s choice was taken away, in a programme that is based on the public's participation.

Is amazing how people are trying to explain it all away and don't see the significance of what BB have done.

The viewers had no say whatsoever in the twist with Eugene who walked off with half the prize money that year either, we don't get to decide those things,BB does.We only vote for who wins the series,not how much they may get.

Just as we didn't have any say last year as to the splitting up of the prize fund either, it's not like something like this hasn't been before and in Eugene's year,he was in fact the only person given the chance to take half the prize fund too anyway,no one else,just becasue he got to the diary room first.

And you have quoted an infamous example of why people constantly say that they hate BB messing with the prize fund. Your example merely shows that BB has learnt nothing.

As you say, Eugene randomly walked into the diary room and chose the prize. This time BB specifically chose to include Conor and exclude Adam: they could easily have chosen the three with the least nominations automatically, (which would have left Conor out) or included all the non-evictees (which would have included Adam) and made for much better TV. Furthermore, Eugene didn't lie to anybody to get the money and hadn't been a vile housemate like Conor has been.

And you have quoted an infamous example of why people constantly say that they hate BB messing with the prize fund. Your example merely shows that BB has learnt nothing.

As you say, Eugene randomly walked into the diary room and chose the prize. This time BB specifically chose to include Conor and exclude Adam: they could easily have chosen the three with the least nominations automatically, (which would have left Conor out) or included all the non-evictees (which would have included Adam) and made for much better TV. Furthermore, Eugene didn't lie to anybody to get the money and hadn't been a vile housemate like Conor has been.

I guess we see it differently then,I don't really see where Conor lied particularly also since Luke S hesitated it would have been daft not to press the button.
I really believe had Luke S pressed at just over 40k, he would have been the one leaving witha good few thousand under his belt. Someone had to press the button it would have been really crazy not to do so.
I certainly would have if I had been in that room and likely sooner than it getting to 50k as well.

It still remains that 4 housemates were eligible to go in the white room, they had to decide who would go in between them, I again say Had Scott and Sara not budged from saying they wanted to go in then in all likelihood, Luke S or Conor would have had to forego the chance to.

Had Sara and Scott gone in, they could have then seen either Luke S or Conor, whichever went in with them, have to leave and that would have left as I said,Sara and Scott competing for who got the 50k or the free pass.

It didn't need to have gone the way it did, it only did so really because Scott was insistent he didn't want to take part in it at all.

Other than for that single rant, I also don't really see where Conor has been an overall vile housemate either to be honest.
They all have had their sort of vile moments in there, none are really better than any of the others as to that one.

Scott was duped, it was a huge opportunity BB were wrong to not make him aware of the prize.
He targetted deana, threatened benedict, intimidated scott and becky turned on sara....need I go on?...
