Housemates being up when they shouldn't be

[Ashley.]

Obviously we've seen this with Jack, but this has also been done before with Sam (CBB13) and Chris (BB15), in attempts to save Jim & Liz, and Pav & Zoe respectively (both of which failed)

I'm just wondering why they do this? Surely they wouldn't want to make it obvious that they were manipulating the show? I don't understand!

We really need a statement from Channel 5, and perhaps a clarification of the rules/format, too.

Im so sick of this and the fact there are no transparent rules.

I remember CBB13 was the worst in putting up people for no reason (like Jasmine) to save Jim

The thing is with CBB13, it was vote to save so Jim would have been safe no matter what.

Perhaps it was more aimed at Liz then. I don't really keep track of celebrity series' as they go by quite quick and I find it hard to catch up with them. I remember thinking it was strange that Sam was up.

The general rule since BB14 has been the three or more with the most noms are up.. So Chris shouldn't have been up in Week 8 last year. However, in Week 3, before the Save and Replace, it should have been Chris, Danielle, Ash, Jale and Christopher up, but they also put Winston, Marlon and Steven up.

However I think it's absolutely awful, and the 4 in 4 out this year is literally the worst thing they've ever done... Not only unfair, but so blatantly done to suit themselves... Danielle's eviction was awful, but at least it wasn't blatant manipulation!
