wtf was the point in doing that!

[Benji_]

It's basically just told the housemates everything on the outside world those producers are so stupid, that's just absolutely pathetic now the housemates know how they are percieved omg:nono:

[GypsyGoth]

It's stupid, maybe BB felt Gina needed a boost? :shrug:

She is the only one who truly benefited from it.

[Indy]

The fallout on live feed last night was spectacular. They won't show any of it, but it was worth it watching the twins self destruct.

[Josy]

9000 people out of 1.5 million+ means nothing

[Livia]

9000 people out of 1.5 million+ means nothing

True. If anything it's lulling a few of them into a false sense of security.

[smudgie]

9000 people out of 1.5 million+ means nothing

This.
Dexter top 3......Dexter on bots poll to be nominated top 3

[Benji_]

9000 people out of 1.5 million+ means nothing

very true it was probs less than 9000 people, the website isn't that popular

[Northern Monkey]

Yeah,May give some of them a surprise when sht gets real.

[thesheriff443]

if I have not said it, it means nothing!:shocked:

[MTVN]

Eh I think 9,000 is a pretty good sample size especially when those checking the website are gonna be the most likely to actually vote

[chuff me dizzy]

Most stupid thing ever on BB

[CaudleHalbard]

Opinion polls in politics are typically a sample of 1000-1500.

9000 is way more than is needed to give a good idea of voting intentions.

[Josy]

Eh I think 9,000 is a pretty good sample size especially when those checking the website are gonna be the most likely to actually vote

I really doubt that tbh, I think the biggest majority of the ones voting on the website (for free) are probably the ones that are less likely to pay for phone votes..

I know people that read nothing online at all about BB but yet vote in evictions every week.

[Tozzie]

somebody remind me not to watch BB next year, for gawds sake I'm in me mid 50s should I not have learned by now? Oh feck it, I like being an immature round the twist :crazy:oldy with no life. Roll on BB 15:D

Maybe, I still think 9000 is a pretty representative sample though, was mainly thinking like CaudleHalbard says that a lot of studies and surveys use a lot smaller sample for a far larger whole (like YouGov is the most reliable political survey but only polls about 2,000 people out of the whole population)

Hmm yeah fair point.

[Scotty07]

I am normally against anything like this, but I thought it was great.:D Have lost count at the amount of times I've watched it.:love:

[actor99]

I too am 55. but yes. the HM. know who to go for. if they were cleaver. but if their close to then maybe they wouldn't do that. then theirs a twist. so god knows

[the truth]

poor decision its also killed the surprise for viewers too this is a pretty accurate cross section of voters

[ConnieLingus]

Gina got a boost.
Dexter got a boost.
Dan had his nose put out of joint a bit.
The Jabbas and Callum got humiliated by Dexter being so far ahead of them.
Hazel had to stand like an eejit in bottom place throughout.

It was full of win.

yes it was funny from that point of view but id rather wait for evictions and final for the full effect

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Made me so angry.

[joeysteele]

For me it could have been a series killer.
However the only thing about it is, that after this twist is revealed tonight and after whoever goes out of the house, they may get further paranoid thinking was the popularity poll also just a big lie too.
Thereby wondering where any of them really stand with all up in the air again.

[anne666]

I agree BUT the joy of watching the reactions of the smug , the fantastic excuses found ,helped me get over it very quickly. :dance:

[Patricia4]

I missed that tell me more.

They shouldn't really have done it, but it's done now and it will be interesting to see if any housemates change now to try and up their popularity, which if so will come across as false anyway. Thought it was funny how the shopping budget dropped drastically because some of them were so convinced of being more popular than they are :joker:

I really don't like watching paranoia though its just them speculating about the show all the time.

This should not have happened as now they will all be putting on an act to change the publics view on them.

[BeloTheBelt]

As the theme this year is secrets and LIES you'd think they(HMs) would be a bit more suspicious and less believing of everything they're told but they take almost everything on face value

[joeysteele]

Oh I agree with you totally there daniel, I near always do as to your opinion on the tasks anyway.

That's a good point.

:laugh2:I know, the shopping budget flying down is what made it even funnier, all because of some of them and their ego's.:D:pat:

[JPG2502]

This.
Dexter top 3......Dexter on bots poll to be nominated top 3

You can be favourite to win, but still be evicted on a negative vote.

[CaudleHalbard]

Don't forget the final result is, in effect, a vote to save.

Which is why bookies often get the winner wrong.

[G1dds]

I think they should have put the order in reverse order, so the likes of the twins would swell their heads would swell lol, making them unbearable to love with but easier for us to evict lol :D

Also it would have confused the hell out of Hazel lol

There is still a possiblilty some of them will think the order was a lie, after tonight's eviction.:D

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Their is still a possiblilty some of them will think the order was a lie, after tonight's eviction.:D

If Dan goes which he probably will then that proves that the order was right as between Sam, Sophie and Dan he was least favourite.

This is why Sam needs to go.

If he was 2nd fav in the task then was evicted it would throw the house into chaos.
