Still watching, but it feels a bit hollow, because of the manner of Lewis' departure - throwing someone out, who was a favourite, with only a week left, and not giving a proper explanation.

Vicky. 31-10-2018 03:31 PM

Yup. Enjoying the positivity and fun. There will have been fun the whole time mind, but producers chose to focus on Lewis/Camerons moaning/paranoia instead. Obviously thats not Lewis' fault, but its been refreshing to have episodes that are not just about bitching, whilst claiming never to bitch :laugh:

mizzy25 31-10-2018 03:31 PM

im still watching as I have saw almost every one since the launch night. I do miss Lewis though

Will watch it to the end.
I will not be voting, I don’t particularly care who wins, as long as it’s not Akeem.

Nancy. 31-10-2018 03:54 PM

I was watching it when it aired, but now i'm recording it and skipping most of it.
BB''s awful now Lewis has gone.

bots 31-10-2018 03:56 PM

I didn't like lewis at all, and I found it awful to watch while he was in. Final weeks are always less interesting because the hm's all start to focus on getting out/winning. However, going from a paranoia saturated mess to a quiet final week is a big change in pace so it will seem even more extreme than usual.

What I've had confirmed to me this week is that Cameron and Akeem are both obsessed with winning, Cian is a pretty hopeless try hard, Zoe is simply unpleasant, Brooke thinks of herself as an intellectual and couldn't be further from it, and Sian is the nicest one in there

mr rochester 31-10-2018 03:59 PM

I’m watching but getting annoyed at how badly dressed they all are...orange towels and dressing gowns. Apart from Sian they are all so scruffy. Didn’t really notice it before (apart from Zoe’s hideous dressing gown). They are a bit of a dull lot I have to say which is so disappointing for the last series...never mind...

No, it's a load of sh1te

Yes she is, she won't win though, they are obsessed with Cameron

user104658 31-10-2018 04:16 PM

No, and again it's not because I liked Lewis or thought he should win (I actually think he story was over 2+ weeks ago), it's purely and simply because it's supposed to be a REALITY SHOW and they didn't show why one of the most featured people was removed. It's totally pointless. As James said above; makes the whole thing hollow.

People who didn't like Lewis and claim to be OK with him being removed without explanation... I honestly suspect you're lying to yourselves fuelled by that dislike. Imagine for a second that it wasn't a show you were watching and just heard about it in passing... that someone who was bookies favourite to win a show was kicked out... and no one knows why? :facepalm: utter shambles.

yeah I get that, but I think they are protecting him rather than anything, it would make no odds for them to show it, and if it is just not that bad why hasn't he said what he said or has he?

user104658 31-10-2018 04:18 PM

As I said on another thread earlier; I'll watch the final just out of curiosity and maybe catch up on the episode before the final (as they don't tend to show much on the actual night). Other than that I'm not wasting an hour of every evening on this :idc:.

millyrose 31-10-2018 04:19 PM

I'm still watching and will be to the end, I don't always watch bots. It has become a bit
dull, I understand that it goes a bit quiet in the last week but I do miss Lewis

Vanessa 31-10-2018 04:21 PM

I'm not watching anymore. Because they never showed what happened and thats unacceptable.

Bold 1) Maybe, if it's true that it was the channel not the show, but that could be the only reason as they've never protected anyone from things they've said in the past. Also, even if that's the case, it's still bull**** and it still makes for pointless "reality" TV.

Bold 2) Could be that it looks bad for him, could be (and I suspect might be) contractual obligations. They don't get "paid" like the celebrities; but they do get basic pay while they're in there (to cover their rent / bills etc. at home) and breaking that contract would allow them to claim that money back from him, which one assumes would probably be in the region of £2000 - £3000 for two months.

I think everybody would like to know why he was removed whether they liked him or not.

Lewis and his family have asked for it to be shown, but they have refused.

Whenever i've tuned in, i've heard them bitching about ex housemates, and zoe moaning about current housemates, and cameron is just as naggy with or without Lewis.. :shrug:

I wonder why they won't? Maybe it wasn't such a big deal, and even if it was, it should have been shown and tthe viewers allowed to decide.

I don't know, but it can't be that bad if they wanted it to be shown? :shrug:
