Broadcasting regulator Ofcom has had more than 600 complaints after Big Brother announced a public vote to put four housemates back onto the show. Fans who spent money voting them out say they feel cheated.


Good, Ofcom can stop this vote going ahead as Fans have been cheated out of thier money

Keep complaining

Compared to the million who watch the show, 600 is not a huge amount. Nobody should be sad enough to spend emough then 1 call/text in the 1st place.

I don't think there is any chance off the twist being stopped.

But i think there is a very good chance that C4 will say that the Housemate re-entering will now not be able to win the £100,000.

Something I heard is that by rule of thumb, 1 complaint is equal to about 10,000 people who also feel tha same way (Or was that 50,000).

Even with 1:10,000 that equates to 6,000,000 people objecting

Ofcom didn't stop Tickle going in did they. Do you really think they will wast there time satisfying obsessional BB fans .........Wake up and smell the coffee.........

If there is a case to be answered only one complaint is needed.......Be it 600 or 60000 makes no difference.......

I agree but the difference with Tickle was that he wasn't back in the running to win the money, I suppose.

It's rather pathetic that people are complaining about this. It's not like they've been cheated out of a substansial(sp?) amount of money anyway.

It's probably the people who don't like Grace or Nikki doing their all to make sure they don't see them on their screens again.

If they stop the twist then more people will complain that they wasted their money voting the 4 ex-housemates back in. :laugh:

There could be a legal issue regarding the money but I doubt it.........I couln't stand Tickle for life or money but had to put up with seeing him back in. The fact is it is or should be a fairly light hearted game show and too many people get hung up on genuine hate for one contestant or another and simply want to get there own way all of the time.......

No one forces anyone to vote so those who were silly enough to spend silly amounts of money multiple voting because they hate someone or other as far as I am concerned deserve to lose the money they chose to wast.........I think Ofcom should be allowed to fine such people for wasting there time......:laugh:
