[Mystic Mock]

Well I'm one of the 46% that can vote... but have got to keep my money for more important reasons sadly.

[Littlegreen]

That still leaves him in the top 3 of the poll, it's gonna be extremely close.

[Pete.]

Wow it's all Jayne's for the taking then :clap1:

[MB.]

I still think he has it in the bag, and if not, Jason will sneak it

[Rob!]

I honestly think it's between Hughie and Jackson

Paddy won CBB a few years back...

[hot2go]

Every winner achieves it without the Irish vote so I don't see why he cant

Dear God please don't let Jason win, this series is coming so close to being perfect :(

[mr rochester]

Don't want Hughie or Jason to win.

[starry]

That regional bias is so ridiculous, people shouldn't vote based on that.

[mysargasso]

I still think he'll pull through.

[Withano]

I thought this was the case, that 4th impact used to top the x factor poll by miles too. Id still imagine when it comes to him and Jason in the final two, hed overtake for the lead if he wasnt already there.

[Jack_]

People need to pile their votes on Andy and Hughie to stop Jason coming close to it

[*mazedsalv**]

Yep, ive seen this. I think he is sadly not going to win.

The Tellymix poll made him look so popular, but now we know over half come from people who can't vote :(

[Epic.]

I think Hughie still is likely. After all, Paddy Doherty won a few years ago. And then there's the fact that Hughie's family are from Dublin. They could always just stay up in the north of Ireland and vote there since you're actually allowed to vote there. In fact, northern irish people are still technically of irish nationality so I feel like Hughie can still pull through. BB is also really popular on tv3 so that's more criteria for Hughie winning. And even if he doesn't have enough of Ireland behind him, if it's between him, Andy, and Jason (as bookies AND tellymix seem to suggest), I feel like the Andy and Jason haters will just pile their votes onto Hughie. Plus, in a scenario like that, Lateysha, Ryan, AND Charlie would all be promoting Hughie to win. And Lateysha has 350K twitter followers. So there's still plenty of backing for Hughie after all.

[Greg!]

This has got me nervous for him :worry: he deserves to win, he's been by far the most entertaining along with Jayne

[Jason.]

GOOD!

Come thru Jayne!

[Greg!]

GOOD!

Come thru Jayne!

She's not going to win sadly :( everyone needs to unite behind Hughie to stop bores Andy and Jason

[reece(:]

Not Andy

[Jack_]

Not Andy

Andy would make a far better winner than Jason, and he's the only one who can stop him making the F2

If Jason makes the F2 eeek

[MB.]

Assuming the latest Tellymix poll also has a similar 50/50 Irish/non-Irish split (and that it's in any way reflective of the final vote, of course), removing the Irish votes would still see Hughie win by a bit of a landslide

He better. I s2g my fave has to win BB some day.

[MB.]

Heck, removing 75% of his votes would still put him a very close second to Jason

On the latest TiBB winner poll about 20% of the votes for Hughie are from Ireland.

There's one vote for him also from the Isle of Man, which you could say is in between.

[Greg!]

Channel 5 need to let Ireland live and give them the vote

Completely agree. Never understood why BB, or any reality show in the UK for that matter, doesn't allow Ireland to vote. Wouldn't you get much more revenue if you let another country vote? Are you trying to get less money??

[Jack_]

Why?

The answer lies in the last seven words of the post you just quoted...you could've answered your own question

[James]

7% of the Jason votes in the TiBB winner poll are from Ireland.

Loving these Behind The Scenes insights!

[jet]

Even halving Hughie's votes on Tellymix, he's still far in the lead - and not everyone who votes in a poll votes for a winner anyway, which is the same for all the finalists.

[*mazedsalv**]

About 20 mins ago, I noticed #Hughietowin was trending.

[tanussa]

how can they stop them from voting. dont understand how that works

[y.winter]

I can't see him losing today. I hope Andy stands a chance.

I don't understand what Jason had done to be a potential winner, except evicting Lateysha. I still prefer him over Hughie.

[Vanessa]

I haven't thought about that. Andy or Jason could actually beat him because of that.

[Cherie]

I guess Brian Dowling won because the Irish couldn't vote either :facepalm:

:joker: Yeah, OK Jack, but please forward me the list of anyone heeding your advice -- I have a bridge in London, and a tower in Paris I want to sell them.

[chuff me dizzy]

Its not a certainty Hughie winning ,he's not a good favourite, his odds are weak I think there will be an upset tonight :dance::dance:

What are his odds now Chuff? He was 1/4 the last time I looked. I hope you are right about the upset by the way. Jason or Andy would be soooo nice. :hee:

He's now 4/5 ....believe me thats NOT a strong fav a STRONG fav would be at least 1/8 ,Andy and Jason are hot on his heels, http://www.oddschecker.com/tv/big-brother/winner This is still with Sam,Alex in the odds, they will change this morning when they are removed

I wasn't comparing them Chuff I was pointing out that not only Irish people vote for Irish housemates which seems to be the contention :joker:

That's GREAT news. If he had been a favourite in a 6 horse race, and I had backed him to win at 1/4, only to see his odds drift to 4/5, I would be literally quaking in my boots. :laugh:

Let's hope and pray that he 'falls at the last hurdle'. :dance::dance::dance::cheer2::cheer2:

Brian had a LOT of UK support ,in a totally different class to Hughie, Brian never put a foot wrong the entire series, and went on to win ULTIMATE hm8 years later, there only been one good Irish hm8 and that is Brian

Yep - the bookies have REAL intelligence when it comes to REAL probabilities - not always infallible, but a good guide nonetheless.

Will do, keep going to odds checker but still got the 2 evictees in the odds, everyone will change this morning due to 2 less in the house

Cheers Chuff - It will be interesting, as you say.

[Beso]

To be honest a hughie win would be the icing on the cake for me but as long as it's not Jackson or Jason I don't really mind.

[Gstar]

Isn't this like, not fair, seeing as he's from Ireland?

[kirklancaster]

Isn't there an Irish version of BB which he could have entered?

[y.winter]

Gary Busey won it without even being close to the UK, let alone Europe. So it's not 100℅ unfair.

Pity vote, yet an American.
When people feel connected to a housemate regardless his origin, it doesn't really matter. Hughie is charming in the eyes of a lot of the viewers, he's the little troubled-loveable gay boy from the harsh travellers community. It's also sort of a pity vote.

I'm not supporting him, but I can see why others are.
