Have producers given Heaven an unfair advantage?

[Matt]

It is just me that thinks the producers have given the Heavenly housemates an unfair advantage regarding nominations this week?

Firstly, only Heavenly housemates are allowed to use the nominations pod, meaning that only they can strategise against the rest of the house. (I am aware that the pod is situated on the Heaven side of the house, but the Hell housemates could have been given somewhere to discuss nominations too.)

Secondly, the Hell housemates have been given an evidently harder task in order to win the right to nominate this week, which they are more likely to fail. If that was the case, then only Heaven can nominate - meaning that, with access to the nominations pod, they can effectively control the house this week.

I personally think that Heaven DO have an unfair advantage. None of the housemates should be allowed to discuss nominations, or all of them should.

I'd rather have no nominations discussion at all.

Also, I don't like the way that our version of Big Brother is taking more of a US-style approach.

What are everyone else's thoughts on this?

(I apologise if there's already a thread similar to this - mods, please delete this if there is)

Yeah, I think NO nominations should be allowed to be discussed. It ruins the whole concept of the game and "gameplaying" and I feel for me it ruins the structure of... no contact with outside world, the paranoia surrounding who is voting for who, who is playing a game etc.

I didn't like the heaven/hell divide in the first place, but this has secured my contempt.

It's been very unfair i think because each side will blatently vote for the other out of paranoia. If they HAD to talk about nominations it should have been extended to the whoel house i think and in order to use the nomination pod you'd have to pass hard tasks or something.

A better idea would have not to have nominations discussions at all.

Like I said in your other thread, heaven is heaven, hell is hell - the current heavenlies earnt the right to be in heaven so deserve 'luxuries' that hell do not.

Suffice to say I went for the bottom option on the poll.

I agree, but if they have to allow nominations discussions then all housemates should be able to participate.

I know that Heaven is Heaven and Hell is Hell, and therefore Heaven should get more treats and priviledges and things, but I personally think that ALL housemates, no matter what their status in the house is, should be given equal rights regarding nominations.

Its heaven for a reason....

[Ross]

There's Heaven being treated, then there's Heaven being favoured.

Totally should NOT have given them permission to talk about nominations/previous nominations.

Should NEVER NEVER EVER have shown them the VTs.

They got a well unfair advantage.

[Arneldo]

Do they have an advantage? Yes but is it unfair? No. This just means housemates will want to win HOH and get into Heaven even more and I like that they are talking about playing the game now. It adds more to the house. Heaven wouldn't be Heaven if hell were given the same treats.

[Billy]

Heaven are meant to be favoured, seeing as it is, yano, heaven

[Dan_]

They certainly are being favoured but Heaven should come with such privileges in my view, not just down to food budget but this is a huge incentive to actually earn your place over that side.It stirs up the show and I'm all for it.

[Grazoink]

OMG this is really anoying me its called heaven and hell for a reason and the reason being heaven get spoiled as hell gets nothing...


its totally fair....




why do you people think this are you bores or what..

if both could see what would be the fun in that.. jeeez
