View Full Version : BB complaints
since Mary's eviction there have been a vast number of complaints towards big brother.
viewers seem absolutely furious about how mary was edited by the producers, and this is highlighted by Mary getting from 8% to 20% more votes than craig in just half an hour
BB and Endemol has had 100+ phone calls and emails, not to mention a petition signed by at the moment 200 people
there's even talk of all this being sent to a national tabloid where more feelings towards Mary's unfair treatment will be shown
what is everyones feelings towards this?

I thought she was unfairly edited, too.
People can watch highlights on E4 as well. They either liked or they did not it's simple.

I am hacked off that Mary was evicted, but I don't see how a petition or complaints will change anything. She's gone and we have to get over it. Biased editing is part and parcel of Big Brother & unfortunately Mary played into their hands by being grumpy on Weds and Thurs which is when the footage that most influenced voting was aired.

The ones complaining must have seen her on E4, otherwise how would they know she's been unfairly edited??

i dont believe this rite craig was crying like a baby and had his best moment before the highlights show on eviction night but dermot showed it on his show and thats when the most votes for Mary was recognised between 6 and 8 and craig hardly got a vote during that time
yea, this is from the official site, where people have been watching 24/7
its clear that there is sumthing seriously wrong wen the 24/7 people vote her in, while the highlights show people vote her out

Therein lies the problem. Perhaps only "serious" Big Brother fans should be allowed to vote, not just any old bloke or bird that switches their TV on on a Friday.

Yes, I think when you ring to vote you should have to answer 6 questions, one for each year of BB and get over 50% correct before your vote counts. Also that might actually make it worth 35p.
ive just got a problem with Big Brother editing her so badly
an 8% difference after 3 days voting, suddenly changes to 20% in under half an hour?!?! there is sumthing definately wrong there
i dont blame the viewers, i blame the editors

Whilst she has come across interesting during the eviction interview and on BBLB, I don't think she did herself any favours whilst she was in the house.
However you edit it, for the most part she simply didn't want to particiapte during the first week and acted like a spoilt child. She may not have been great viewing on the hightlight shows but, to be fair, it was all her own doing.
I think we have to let the public decide and they already have.

I liked both Craig and Mary so I wanted them both to stay. I wish Sam would go!

I think nearly every edition of BB has had complaints about the editing. There have been petitions other years and they failed and so to will this one sadly...
I have not been interested enough to watch any of the stuff on E4 so i personally cannot judge one way or the other. But knowing BB there probably has been an injustice. That is what BB is reputed for.....:devil:
