I think BB is fixed

[Jarvio]

Since C5 took over, they downright refuse to release the voting figures. C4 never did this. But C5 does.

C5 are blatantly fixing the show, and I cannot believe that people aren't catching onto this.

We should all sign a petition or something for them to release all the voting figures of the C5 era or we accuse them of fixing the show.

This isn't even sour grapes over who gets evicted. I am genuinely suspicious.

I even asked C5 about who got the least votes out of Winston and Nancy, more than once, and got the same bullcrap response back, which was just vague, bureaucratic nonesense saying they do not release voting figures.

Why are all you guys (and the rest of the public) just going with this? Aren't you mad that people are possibly voting for nothing?

BB is the most shamelessly manipulated and corrupt show on British TV.

[ebandit]

BB is intellectually boosted.......but i don't have the brains to understand

just how it's done.........

I seriously think we should sign a petition to get them to release the voting figures. Let's do something about it. Anyone know how to set one up?

[waterhog]

the game was yesterday I am convinced.

[TomC]

There definitely needs to be petition about last night's twist. No transparency there.

[Northern Monkey]

Very possible.I have'nt voted for years now because i don't trust them at all.

[Jarvio]

There definitely needs to be petition about last night's twist. No transparency there.

I think the voting figures throughout all the C5 era are more important, because people's money is at stake

They chose where they stood tho?

They can't manipulate voting. It has regulators and it would just not be possible.

Obviously production favorite certain housemates and design twists to keep them safe. Every TV production does it - Big Brother just doesn't hide it.

I don't know why they don't release percentages.

I know they don't release actual vote counts because they have lower votes cast than any other show so it's embarrassing.

[Cal.]

They do release them sometimes.

They released the voting figures for Pauline's eviction in BB15 and they released them for the CBB16 final.

[Jarvio]

Well they wont even tell me who got the fewest votes out of Winston and Nancy, so something fishy is going on

I think it's obvious Winston had more than Nancy but they wanted Winston out first so designed the twist to make sure he went.

It's not just C5 though. In BB6, they did the 'housemates choose who goes' twist where Vanessa was evicted when Makosi had more public votes.

You have hit the nail very firmly on the head - the show is as bent as a £9.00 banknote, and I don't mean just from a vote perspective, because the results of 'Tasks' are rigged too.

I would have bet good money on Gemma Collins 'winning the Golden Ticket', and it was very 'provident' that despite her being responsible for two of three failed tasks - BB announced that the HM's were 'allowed' 'FOUR FAILS' - therefore allowing Gemma off the hook and safe from the wrath which the other HM's would surely have felt had she cost them the win.

Pure B.S. and I would bet that the eventual 'Winner' is already a 'Done Deal'.

[ThriceShy]

It was fixed before channel 5 took over. The fix for Josie to win was under channel 4.

Nobody takes it seriously any more, surely. We are talking about a show that made the civilian one last year a "legends" series just so that Helen could be in it all over again.

It wouldn't surprise me if Helen goes back in this year.

I don't think the 'legends' twist was done for Helen at all. If anything it was done to get Nikki back in. Helen wasn't even their first choice to go back in. Originally they chose Nikki, Brian Belo and Gina Rio but Gina declined the offer so Helen was a back up.

Nancy got the fewest, hence the sudden switch to the housemates voting.

A similiar switch would have been done last night if one of their favourites was last in the voting.

[TomC]

They chose where they stood tho?

But there could have been a gold and a white one in each podium?

If that was the case I'm certain they would have rigged it for Stephanie considering Gemma wouldn't even be in trouble if she faced eviction - she's probably topped every vote.

I think Gemma is the producers' pet. Regardless, like I said, there was no transparency and it was clearly fixable.

I think Gemma is going to be favored by producers but they have no reasons to rig immunity for her in my honest opinion. She will get saved by the public regardless. Stephanie and Tiffany are the housemates I'd expect them to rig it for.

[hot2go]

This old chestnut again....thought was too good to be true that we'd managed to get this far without this unfounded and unprovable topic contaminating the fun again this year.....at least we managed two weeks free from it this time...
If people really believe it's fixed then switch it off the second it comes on like I do with X factor ...don't belly ache about it..
Of course the bottom 3 were Steph, Jeremy and Megan....and it's totally believable there would be less than 1% between them.
If anything considering how Gemma and Tiffany were rewarded with support for their bad behaviour I'm suprised that Steph wasn't in the top 3

I know right.As soon as BB said "four fails" i thought.'You've just made that up'

[hot2go]

Do we believe that if there were two masks in each box that the housemates wouldn't realise this fact...that John wouldn't examine the box, I'm sure he's very experienced in examine people's boxes �� Or that Steph would immediately do the same thing considering the golden mask went to her arch enemy

[Cherie]

Of course it's fixed, if they edit it right, they can literally manipulate the public into voting for or against anyone...Helen Wood being a case in point, crowned the winner and a year later they turned a lot of her fans against her, same person, different edit

[hot2go]

That lazy bitch was always gonna get there first and pick the box that required the least effort to reach by foot...

[sungrass]

It doesnt matter if they chose where they stood - they could have had two masks in each box!!! and the pressed Gold where Gemma was standing - Im sorry is suspicious - Also,its totoally rigged thats why I never vote.

[sungrass]

They couldnt just look in the boxes for another mask they were on live telly - maybe its not something you would do - maybe they whispered in GCs ear where to stand... but its iffy

And yet you still watch it for 8 hours every week and use up your valuable free time to come here

[sungrass]

Im just discussing what happened last night like several people are - that is the point of the forum!!

[Livia]

And yet you still watch it for 8 hours every week and use up your valuable free time to come here

It's a Big Brother forum. He's allowed to say what he likes... within reason.

[tr1cky]

I think Jarvio's point about people spending money to vote (or betting on the outcome) is valid. I also mailed channel 5 on the first vote, got probably exact same reply. It actually began 'we're sorry you were disappointed with....' Well I hadn't even said I was disappointed!
It's not a huge issue out of context, but it is indicative of the erosion of democracy in this country.
I worked at a place where Industrial ballots were counted by a senior union rep and an hr manager. All well and good except the union officials were up managements arses and so both parties wanted same result.

^^. This. As soon as they said about 4 fails, I knew it was made up to make them pass because they didn't want Gemma to face the wrath of the hms

Then the podium boxes, I knew straight away Gemma would get a gold mask, which was then confirmed when it turned out they didn't actually need to turn the handles (Jeremy's box opened after his handle broke off). Blatant set up 😡 Can only be because of the Towie fanbase that keeps CBB viewing numbers high.

[rocket]

They chose where they stood tho?

Yes they did choose where to stand but didn't you realise every one had a gold and a silver mask in...so it didn't matter where Gemma stood she would have still received the gold one...
Been fixed ever since channel 5 took over...it's about time something was done about it...
I don't vote and I don't think anyone else should...
Why waste your money ..

[Alf]

I blame the cast of BB4, they killed off the original concept.

Company's are there to make money and they'll do whatever it takes to reach their goals.


Of course it's a scripted scam, but they're making money of the public so they couldn't care less.

I've never ever voted on BB and never will. It's easy, you just don't ring the phone number that they try to influence you to ring.

[fitz2k2]

we know this show has been fixed for yrs.what can we do?jack ****
