yaaaaaasss

Finally a twist I can get behind :clap1: and one that feels as though it may have actually been planned in advance (tho probs not)

That reveal gave me Davina teas :flutter:

And ex housemates at last yaaaassss, what I was hoping for from this theme :love: they better go in permanently and be eligible to win

Anyway yeah so far kudos, I'm excited! Let's hope they don't let us down

Ikr incredible news

[reece(:]

Only for a week

[Josy]

They aren't eligible to win, I posted the info on another thread

[Liam-]

There's no way they'll be eligible to win, they'll be gone after the Sunday.

Good, would give them a massive unfair advantage

[LukeB]

The eligible to win would be so unfair tbqh

[MB.]

I doubt it's been properly planned in advance if those tweets Nikki posted only last week about important meetings have anything to do with BB.

[Brother Leon]

Lol at wanting them to be eligible to win. They had their time. They shouldn't even be going in now tbh.

Completely agree with both of these.

It's not so bad if it's part of a twist/task but I generally don't like past housemates going in.

And? I expect most of them won't have won their series, some may have even deserved to, some may even deserve to win this one over some of the more irrelevant current housemates so yeah I don't see the issue

Ex housemates enter in foreign versions and them being eligible to win is a given, no reason why it shouldn't be over here

I don't see what's so exciting about it if they're going to only be in there for one week. If the ex-housemates were allowed to stay in there for the long run, then it would be a good twist. But for one week, nah I'm not cool with it. Its just going to be a mini vacation for them and then they're going to just be ousted after a one week stay.

[Angelika]

Sounds like desperate tactics from the organisers of BB, TBH!

There must be a ratings problem or BB wouldn't go to the expense. I really feel the old housemates will be a disappointment beyond words. Leave the past in the past - it's a bit like visiting somewhere you knew as a child, it's always disappointing.

[SaffyrBleu]

For tasks, much like the Birthday special I'd be happy to see oldies go in. But I don't see the point of the return otherwise x

If they didn't win their series then they didn't win. This isn't some sort of "Oh, sorry you didn't win. Try again" crap :laugh:

Well that's clearly not the point of the twist, moreso they want to attract casual viewers back to the show and get some press attention by bringing people like Nikki back, but my point against 'why shouldn't they be eligible to win' is that well some of them may have deserved to win their series (most winners are totally undeserving) and probably even deserve to win this one over some of the duller housemates. And I also don't see what's the point in bringing them back if they're just going to be guests, at the very least let them stay the duration

It's only a TV show, don't see why it should be a one time only opportunity. Not like it's that important

[Merry Mockmas]

Nikki has had one too many goes as it is, she's had her time and let it rest there.
