I'm sure the producers are keeping a close eye on who's entertaining and who's dead wood. If they don't consider the contestants value for money, then they are going to devise a way to get rid of them and I reckon that's what's happening here. They have four more people lined up that hopefully have bigger and more entertaining personalities that will push ratings up.

This show is only as good as the people who are in it. End up with a bunch of bottom feeders and ratings will drop. We shouldn't ever forget that BB is just another money making machine. Without a wide audience BB could end up in the archives of past entertainment and I for one don't want that to happen.

Yep, while some clearly enjoy the current crop of housemates, many, many diehard fans have switched off finding them boring. BB can only filter housemates so much during auditions, if they put them on the field and they don't do the business they should be taken off and substitutes put on in their place.

After my initial reaction which wasn't a positive one I've slept on the idea and now I'm hyper-excited at the prospect of this new twist.

Friday's show is going to be mental.

The housemates will learn that those who thought they could be going wont be going

The housemates that thought they were safe are going to be totally shocked and their reactions will be intense.

Then they learn that four are getting evicted and four new housemates enter.

This is one hell of mind screw-up, they wont know what the hell is happening and the reaction is going to spill over the weekend.

I've liked this house but admit that they were some very dull housemates and it didn't matter how much BB was trying to stir the pot they kept making up which in theory is really nice, but I love the friction in the show, it's what I tune in for each night.



Of those that face eviction this week I would like Sarah & Harriet to stay as they seem to be making some kind of impact on the house, but all told I wouldn't be gutted if they were to go.

I wouldn't be feeling this excited with the twist had it been the nominated housemates facing eviction.

Great post visage, I'm so looking forward to seeing this twist unfold, I'm sure it's all going to kick off, that's for sure.

100% agree

I liked her in the first week and found something endearing about her, then after the debate task we saw a much harsher side to her. I wasn't impressed with her way of dealing with it, but was happy she actually started to have an impact. I think she's messed up and while I've gone off her as a person, I think she has the makings to be a good housemate. Of the ones who could go I think she will still add to the mix if she stays.

I loved how she was complaining to Sarah about Aaron, she was disgusted by his talking behind Jade's back, not realising that she was doing exactly the same thing by talking about Aaron behind his back.

This is great...mix it up...we don't want a boring,happy house.

Yes, absolutely this is what I love too. I don't want a predictable show.

I love the fake evictions/secret house, but think they have to stop doing it for a while or do something completely different.

Who knows, some of the housemates may believe the four evictees are in a secret house, again that's going to mess with their heads.

Yes, that's an excellent point, it's still very early in the show and that gives us plenty of time.

Great point to get the message across. Let this be a warning or hint for some of those who want to try and sail under the radar.

I think it's great how BB are showing just how vulnerable the housemates are.

Oh I too am hoping for it to kick off.

I wonder if the crowd will chant GET JADE OUT, despite her being safe. :joker:

I'm sure of it, but I think she will react with a finger in the air as she realises she isn't going no where.



This week...

One of the things I'm looking forward to is how Harriet reacts, she has such a short fuse. Initially I wan't sure where I sat with this twist, but now I'm really excited to see how the show goes down on Friday.

I actually think if Harriet goes it could be very uncomfortable viewing. Remember how bad she was at being voted in the top 3, all the crying and stuff. I think it will be a repeat of that, rather than her kicking off.

Good to see you posting Visage.

I'm still a bit shocked with this twist tbqh, on one hand I'm still really pissed off about it and feel it's unfair for the housemates that are going to end up evicted (had the whole house been up it wouldn't have been so bad I guess) but then on the other hand I am quite excited to see it all play out and I'm really hoping we don't lose 4 pretty big characters only for them to be replaced with dullards.

Lets hope it all works out

jaxie 28-05-2015 11:18 AM

I agree with the original OP (welcome!) that this new twist is exciting. Big brother is a social experiment and it looks like the producers are really going for that this year.

Fans of the show will always moan if the format doesn't fit how they want t it to run but shaking up the format and giving us the unexpected can only be refreshing and healthy for the show.

I do get where you're coming from,. but I reached a point this morning where I thought sod that way of thinking, I want this show to be successful, I want it to be memorable.

Saying that I can't totally guarantee I will get that, but I kinda think well done for trying something different.

It is cruel to four housemates who went to a lot of trouble trying to get on the show, but then at the same time I like BB being cruel. Though I'm not a cruel vindictive person at heart lol

It really is a big risk because it could blow up in their faces, but (I know I'm repeating myself here) I'm really happy that they are trying to do something.


Like you say, let's hope it all works out.

Strictly Jake 28-05-2015 11:53 AM

I'm unsure of this twist! But I know I want Danny and Sarah to stay by I feel Chloe has more to give. As long as Harriet and the twins go I'm happy

Great post Visage.
I wish you'd come back for good !

Finally a decent thread. I agree with a lot that's being said here. I absolutely HATE that were going to lose a few good female housemates (Harriet, Sarah, the Twins) but even so the show needs to do something a little bit different, something drastic. And this twist is kinda exciting and risky, so I'm for it.

Without the twist we would've lost the biggest character in the house (Jade) and that would've been horrible for the show. Every series is the same and has gotten a bit predictable, big or interesting characters get voted out first and I'm tired of it. We would've ended up losing Harriet, Jade, or the twins in the next few weeks anyway because viewers hate outspoken and loud characters so if we lose them now, then I won't cry over it.

With this twist, everything will be turned upside down and it will shock all of the housemates. Its a game show, no one should feel safe or comfortable. This twist will stir them all up and I'm looking forward to seeing how everything will unfold.
