EIGHT housemates face the chop this week after TV bosses punished the gang.




The wannabes all nominated one another for eviction yesterday.




Originally Deana Uppal, 23, Luke Anderson, 31, and Caroline Warrham, 20, were up for the axe after getting the most votes.



But during nominations, the group was caught breaking rules again to talk about voting. To punish them, TV chiefs declared anyone who had received a nomination would face eviction.




It means a further five housemates join the trio – Conor McIntyre, 24, Luke Scrase, 24, Adam Kelly, 27, Ashleigh Hughes, 21, and Sara MacLean, 22.




Only Becky Hannon, 19, and Scott Mason, 21, are spared as they did not get a single vote.




The eight learn their fate on Friday’s Channel 5 slot. The favourite to go should be posh Caroline, who is hated by fans.




Meanwhile, bookies fave Deana has been cheating. She asked friend Sharon to write the word “magic’’ in her letter from home as code to let her know she was liked by fans.




But bosses edited it out. Yesterday she raged: “She hasn’t given me a clue about anything. I wanted reassurance.”
