It should never have reverted back to vote to evict in BB14, let alone last year, let alone this series. So I'm glad they've done this, I just hope they rig it

Yes, wish I hadn't.
With the Lewis addition to it, it is possibly, in my view, loaded to get the anti Lewis response.

The vote to save, if it was voted for, will be in place to the end of the series, whether Lewis js still there or up for eviction or not.

It applies to all housemates not just one singled out at all.

I will probably switch off if they do this as to me it is cheating and it takes away the point of the entire show. It is no longer you decide, it will be the producers decide but get you to spend your money on votes that have no meaning since the outcome is already determined.

Although I prefer VTE because it is more true to the premise of the game, I would have had no problem with VTS if they had done this from the start, but bringing it in half way through is grossly unfair and will likely change the outcome on Friday. Let Lewis, Tomasz, Isabella and Hussein have the same circumstances and chances as the other housemates who have been evicted Anamelia, Lewis, Isaac and Kenaley.

It's not just about Lewis.

I voted wrong on the poll anyway, I voted yes in a rush as a Lewis fan but should have voted no.
I won't switch off and am a Lewis fan.

These loaded questions in polls just confuse.
So I stress here.
No, I won't switch off with vote to save

I have since I first watched BB, supported vote to save.
That way of voting for all housemates, not just one, is the only real means for supporters of a housemate to be behind them all the way through.

I really do wish, as often people in a rush re work etc; that polls had a way of itchanging your vote when you've voted the wrong way.

Especially with such loaded and personalised to a single housemate, (out if 10 housemates left), choices in said loaded question.

nothing stopping either of you creating your own poll :shrug:

Yeah I’ll switch off if they do it. Not only is it a cheap transparent move that backtracks from their production step ups, and not only is Lewis and Cameron ruining the last ever show for me, but it’ll still kill me that this was introduced so late when we could’ve used it to keep the likes of anamelia and Kay in

Maxxie. 17-10-2018 11:26 AM

I mean I'm not really watching anyway but I get 40 quid if lewis wins so this works for me

I will still watch but should it change to VTS I will not vote again.

This pretty much sums up how I feel too.

Chansey 17-10-2018 12:02 PM

To be fair, if Vote to Evict keeps up then controversial characters will be the only housemates voted out. Then you’ll end up with a finalist group of mostly floaters (Brooke, Cian, Zoe, Sian). At least if people like Lewis, Thomasz, Hussain or Akeem stay then so does entertainment.

I don’t think they’re doing it specifically for Lewis, but rather they’re thinking ahead to what types of housemates they feel would make an entertaining final.

Jase. 17-10-2018 12:05 PM

Why on earth would you randomly stop watching just because the way you vote for a housemate to stay/go has changed? :skull: Especially if you've invested so much time in the series :skull:

GoldHeart 17-10-2018 12:10 PM

Already stopped watching :idc:

Indeed there isn't.

My poll would have asked will a change to vote to save make you switch off.

Yes or no.

No need for any singular housemates name included, that's all

Because Lewis and Cameron have started to ruin this series and we finally have an opportunity to cut it short and they take it away in favour of keeping the controvocy

BBDodge 17-10-2018 12:48 PM

If I was going to switch off I'd have done it:

a) after Anamelia was evicted
b) after Kay walked
c) when Hussain appeared

So I can hang on another few weeks till the bitter end.

They should have realised this at the start then.

Getting Lewis out to me is not 'counter-productive'. It's counter-destructive bc every time he comes on screen I want to destroy the tv :)

Could you point me in the direction of the part of my post where I implied that please? That'd be helpful, thanks!

I would suggest stepping away from the TV in that case, you seem to be taking a television show a bit too seriously :)

RileyH 17-10-2018 03:40 PM

If Hussain pays the price then yes

Jack_ 17-10-2018 03:42 PM

Also there's gonna be a lot of humble pie to be had on here when it's revealed nothing is changing, all the silly outrage will have been for nothing

Right? :skull: I can't help but cringe tbh.

Vicky. 17-10-2018 04:34 PM

Yup. Because I am sick ****ing sick of the manipulation and its more transparent than usual this time. Between the only showing misery/Cameron or paranoia/Lewis (interchangeable really) and this transparent attempt to save their fave..its just pathetic.

I would be VERY surprised if they admit that evict won the poll tonight. And they don't have to admit it either. Which they know.

I have been losing interest for 2 weeks now really. But this was kind of the straw that broke the camels back.

I am generally a huge fan of VTS too and think it should have been VTS in all the series' that it hasn't been, this series would have been great if they asked us at the start of it. But Cameron and Lewis are genuinely ruining the show for me at this stage..and those making out that its not being done to save Lewis are really kidding themselves tbh, so turning off won't be hard at all. Honestly, even if they do somehow admit that VTE won, I am chance to give in with it anyway

It can't even be claimed that its because they have realised VTE gets rid of bigger characters, they KNOW this already :laugh:

I think even if VTE wins the poll they'll still lie to the viewers and make out VTS has won . They don't want their pet Lewis getting evicted .

The tool bag has nothing else to give , I've already switched off . It's draining & boring just seeing the Lewis & Cameron show.

I'm convinced Lewis is having sex with a few of the producers , he has some connections as everything is always going in his favour . His mate Cameron has his place in the final as well. The arrogance of them both as they always think or know they'll be safe .

JoshBB 17-10-2018 08:20 PM

Mess.

Honestly, the fact that everyone has jumped to assume this has been done to favour Lewis just shows how he's carried the series :love: we stan the best male HM

No, it just means there's a lot of people who can't stand him.

Carrying what!?? He's obnoxious :facepalm::umm2: . Obviously the more vile and bitchy he is of course it will dominate the show.

All him & Cameron do is feed off each other's negativity . That ISN'T healthy ! .
