View Full Version : Rate the twist out of five

Bearing in mind the concept, the outcome and the execution
I loved the concept of it but thought they should have contrived a way to have more people up and definitely shouldn't have had Caroline immune. Just having the vote being Nancy and Sam was an anticlimax. I'm pleased enough with the outcome though as I think Emily and Farida will both be good housemates and it feels like justice for Emily.
I thought the execution on the night was actually really good. It felt very dramatic and I respect them for trying something new. The whole house shocked at Sam being evicted, Nancy was there having a meltdown and then Sam looked like he was full on going to have a panic attack when he realised it was a fake eviction. Peak live television imo
Overall I therefore give it an 4/5

Yeah, it gets 4/5 from me as it was a head to head to go in. But overall, one of their better efforts from this series.

I enjoyed it, it's a shame they're only in the secret room till sunday should be a bit longer.

Sorry but it's a solitary 1 from me.
Had there been a zero in the poll, I'd have selected that.
It's an awful and terribly designed unnecessary twist in my view.
In a longer series it may have been better but not with only around 4 weeks left in total.

I didn't want Nancy or Sam to go so I am happy in that respect... but the choices of housemates for it is just so disappointing. I don't mind Farida but I wish they'd acknowledge channel 4 / 5 series... it would've been more interesting to have a blast from the past than the girl trying to make a name for herself and her Twitter with some of George's reheated nachos.

3/5 - I wish Sam went in first and then brought the others in. I also wish it was completely new housemates tbh.
Next week they should show us about 8 photos of the Late & Live audience over the last 3 weeks and let us choose the two most memorable ones ( for good reasons)
Then throw them into the house

Cameron B should have been in there not that woman who has already been in it. :mad:

I put 3 because it's not as bad as the first twist (my main reason). We lost George and that made not having Emily more significant.
I think BB is just going for messy at this rate. It's less social experiment now and more producer's experiment... it is what it is :shrug:

This.
I'm not interested in these two at all. IF they were gonna do this it should have been 2 newbs.
I'm also sorry that we didn't get rid of one of Chairman Fey's arselickers

Like my view on Nancy, I'd give it 1.
(yes, it's a terrible borderline misogynist joke, but it's Saturday night and I've had a whiskey).

I'll give it a 2.
The idea was interesting, but the nominees weren't imo.
Plus I don't get the point of a whole week of building up to this Secret Room, only for it to last two days?
We could've just had more fun trying to guess which one would be evicted.

Let's think of ourselves as being men of culture, rather than embracing Misogyny.

A big fat ZERO for yet another hatchet job done on Elsa !!

I'm up for that.:dance:
I am going to start campaigning for BB to cast an attractive woman for next week, after all this series does need something positive attributed to it, because it's certainly not the current Housemates personalities.:joker:

I can’t believe there back in there ALREADY ? How pointless !
…sadly I think that it’s going to be another potential that they just can’t make work in its execution, other than give us two more housemates…one of the biggest dramas of a secret room is watching them watching the house and being able to ‘meddle’ in the house and it’s dynamics…they had a little wander about at night time and were a part of one quick rating task…which actually could have equally been done with a public vote being the chatBBT, so…they have all of the ingredients but they just can’t mix them together to create a BB of interest atm…/…harsh but it is what it is, sadly…
