The Big Brother 2014 results are in and a new power housemate has been chosen by us viewers, but who is it?
Over night, a poll took place using the Official Big Brother app and fans (or at least those with an iPhone) were able to vote for which housemate they wanted to send on a power trip.
The poll closed at 9AM this morning (Thursday) and this afternoon the results were revealed to the chosen housemate.
And – perhaps surprisingly – it’s Chris R Wright who has been picked by the public iOS users.
He reacted to the news after being called to the Diary Room earlier this evening: “That’s a hell of a kindness.”
But when asked how he felt about becoming the new Power housemate, Chris replied: “Deeply uncomfortable… I don’t know what you’re going to ask of me.”
Chris will wield his power for the first time in tonight’s (Friday) live show, which will also see the first eviction.
Previous power housemate Pauline was given the opportunity to grant one housemate £5,000, punish another, send a third through to the final and lastly, had a killer nomination, which saw resulted in Jale Karaturp being put up for eviction this and every week that she remains in the house.
The three nominated housemates – Jale, Danielle and Tamara – were not eligible to be voted as the new Power housemate.
