When should Michael the mole be removed from the house?

[LikeABoatOnWater]

I see this twist ending sooner rather than later. I personally hope hes in there for the whole season.

[Jack_]

Near the end of the series. It'll just be another one of their sh*tty little one week twists again otherwise.

[Josy]

Either at the end of the series or when he gets rumbled.

[reece(:]

about 3 weeks in

[LikeABoatOnWater]

TBH as long as he doesn't become a housemate after he's reveled to be a mole then im fine, I could just imagine BB pulling some **** like that. Oh and they also better not let him give the housemates a goodbye message saying how much he actually really loves them and how hard it was for him to lie to them.

[Shaun]

asap. bored of it. bored of him.

[Jordan.]

Hopefully a few more weeks. If they reveal it now none of them will even be shocked, it'll be a flop.

[Patricia4]

Near the end.

[Marsh.]

It'll be pointless if he leaves anytime soon. He needs to survive a couple of evictions and stuff to really pull it off that he's a proper housemate, everyone won't be that surprised if it's revealed early.

But hopefully it's not dragged onto the end of the series when the majority of housemates will have been evicted and only learn his secret outside of the house. We want them all to be told around halfway through the series for a proper reaction.

[Linto99]

Only when he gets the most nominations from the housemates should they be told!

[Jamesy]

3 weeks time would be perfect I think. Once 2 or 3 evictions have passed the reveal of Michael should have more of a shock on the housemates.

Judging by Michael doing something daily at the moment though, sadly I think it will end very soon. BB seems to be rushing it.

[joeysteele]

I probably don't hold the majority view but for me sooner rather than later.

[Jase.]

Eh, it's too early to say. If he's constantly given amazing secret tasks to do, let him stay until the end. If he begins to lose steam, send him packing towards the half-way point.

[Firewire]

sooner rather than later

[Jack_]

To expand on what I wrote...

Near the end because this is the main secret they promoted, if it turns into one of their one week sh*tty tasks it'll be a complete failure. This is the one opportunity they've got to do this twist right and it should last the distance. He needs to take a backseat next week because they're drawing too much attention to him, I want him to settle in and start forming bonds, we need to be given nastier and more devious choices too, I want to turn him into a sneaky ******. I suggested earlier we be given the choice to pick another housemate whose stuff he should steal and then another housemate who he should plant that stuff on, i.e. steal Gina's stuff and plant it in Sallie's bag. Then watch things kick off, and I really don't think they'd suspect him in a few weeks time with the whole nice guy act either.

That's the kind of direction this twist needs to take, him starting friendships/relationships only to break them 10 weeks later when they reveal he's an actor. If you contrast their reaction in a few days (unsurprised...yawn) to if at the end of the series when he's become part of the group and you reveal everything that he's done and said has been an act, that reaction would be miles better and much more worthwhile.

I want other 'secrets and lies' twists around him too, and he doesn't have to be and isn't the main focus of the show, there can be plenty of other house action aside from him, but as this was the main twist promoted, it needs to last the distance and they need to really make it worthwhile.

Sallie has already told him they watched him in the diary room the whole thing just isnt working and really isnt doing anything for me.
end of week one will do.

half way, I will get bored

How does Sallie telling him mean the fake housemate isn't working?

Surely the fact that she genuinely believes he didn't know they were watching him means it's working, no?

[DanielLuis]

I think he should stay 3 or 4 weeks, maybe a bit more. One week would be too early, and til the end of the series would be a bit too much and stupid.

Surely the fact that she genuinely believes he didn't know they were watching him means it's working, no?I meant the thing in general just doesnt do anything for me and watching someone spill the beans about something that they already knew anyway just isnt as interesting as if it had happened between real housemates if it had happened for real the absolute horror for the person in the diary room and how they coped with it would have been far more interesting.

If i wanted to watch an actor i wouldnt watch BB.
One of the things i like about BB is genuine reactions by people put in a high pressure situation and seeing how they cope will they break or grow stronger.

[Me. I Am Salman]

asap. bored of it. bored of him.

This, and I hate his voice

[Me. I Am Salman]

Although I hope they maintain the secrets and lies theme in other ways

I don't see how you won't get that from Michael.

Surely it should add to your interest in their interactions once all the housemates have settled in more. To see how the housemates react to Michael and the public's machinations. It's all a false reality anyway.

[GypsyGoth]

Just leave him in the house till next series.

[Lowkey]

I'm already sick of this gimmick. I can't have dude dominating the highlights for the whole summer.

[Marsh.]

Don't worry. Sallie's took that duty onto herself.

[jyunga]

I think later on it'll work out better. It's too early for these kind of twists. No ones going to care and everyones going to assume it's all a lie and they'll be fine later on (ie: getting their suitcases back).

I think feeding him questions or helping him sabotage other people in tiny ways to get sparks flying would work much better. Like if someone says they hate a certain person in the house then Michael should influence them working together. Kinda rigging stuff for BB to make housemates mad at each other.

[JohnnyBB]

once theyve given him the 100grand prize fund im happy for him too go.

[Munchkins]

5 Weeks in or so... eventhough hes greatly annoying ,and his voice eurgh

[Rob!]

They really REALLY need to let him be eligible to be nominated, then when he gets a lot of nominations (which he probably will do - several of the housemates have questioned how real he is, a very common reason for nominating someone), announce he faces the public vote (which he obviously won't) and then when he survives an eviction, they'll be no doubt to them that he is a real housemate.

This is another reason why I want him to stay longer than a week, I want to see him face eviction or escape noms despite having enough to go up (depending on how they do it) and see the other housemates reactions. There's much more that can be done with this, surely they won't end it so soon?

There is even the potential for them to give him some secret tasks similar to Makosi - let him hide some new housemates (when some of the current lot are gone) or to give him the most nominatons secret mission.

SO much that can be done with him and despite what people are saying about him, I do believe he's more than capable of it.

[newsbb]

we all know he will end up being a housemate!

[jyunga]

i doubt that. he made it pretty clear to rylan that he's doing a job for BB similar to rylan doing his BB gig. plus he left the house sunday and went outside. wouldn't really be fair at all.

[Jords]

Did he??

[Rob!]

Did he??

Only to do a BOTS interview, he went straight back in after that. It's fine, he's not a housemate so the occasional leaving to debrief etc is fine, as long as their subtle about it.

[Locke.]

Let's be honest, even when it is revealed, he is going to be staying in as a regular housemate anyway. So whenever.

oh cool I never knew, thanks :)

[Macie Lightfoot]

As soon as possible, this twist sucks.

[Ammi]

..Never, he should be recycled and made into next years diary room chair...

[SharkAttack]

heh heh heh

[SharkAttack]

I think BB has made it known that HMs are allowed to go out of the house at times, for emergencies, or whatever, and they have always seemed to have contact with the outside world since 5 picked it up. No reason he couldn't be a housemate, but it'd be a difficult sell for the others to accept him if they were to find out, for sure, that he was a mole. I'd rather the BB team jettison Michael when the time is right, and bring in a perfectly new real cast member. We'll need him or her by then.

[Cherry Christmas]

It's not working as well as Speidi that is for sure. But they are all suspicious anyway so maybe it's not working for us because we know, I'm prepared to give the twist the benefit of the doubt but so far I'm fairly unimpressed. They should take Head of Household off him and give it to someone else and make him rebel against the new Head in a fit of rage, that might work.:joker:

I'd like to see that though.

Yes Good plan , I agree then the other HM will start to think playing jokes and being underhanded is endearing him to the public so perhaps others may copy his "tactics". Could prove to be a very clever gimmick in the long run...!!!

[CallumJoshuaSturt]

A day before the final, otherwise this secret and lies bull**** is rubbish, He will face eviction a lot of the time so it will be funny to watch him survive till the end, also he needs to stay to the end for it to be REAL shook to the housemates otherwise all it will be will be Sallie like "I knew it"

[Marsh.]

You only need to let it run halfway through the series for that.

Take it until the end and we won't get much reaction because the majority of the housemates will have been evicted and only told outside of the house.

[Marcus.]

Final Week

[arista]

I see this twist ending sooner rather than later. I personally hope hes in there for the whole season.


Also I want him to leave via a back door.

And BB to simply say he left.

[aj2463]

I'd say end of week two, it will give him time as head housemate and then another week of just messing with the house, but if he leaves there has to be more "secrets and lies" obviously

[zakman440]

I reckon in the final week, imagine their faces at the fact that they had been living with a mole the whole time.

[Calderyon]

At the end of first month ie: 4 weeks total. Not too long, but not too short time to it being a overkill.

[sampvt]

He needs to get gone really soon. His acting skills are so bad, he is becoming boring and his emotional poopahs are pathetic. He is soon to be rumbled as hes been given too many bullets to fire way too soon.

[Visage]

I'd like him to stay there till near the end.


Providing BB make good use of him.

[Jenn-CityIVLyfe]

Personally I dislike moles, so I'd prefer Michael to leave sooner rather than later.

[lostalex]

There's no way they'd leave him in over 2 weeks.

[PrincessIona]

I have voted end of week 2, but really I think about 3 full weeks would be about right

[LikeABoatOnWater]

So I guess, based on what was said on BOTS tonight, the correct answer is, End of Week 1.
