STUART EIGHTH TO BE EVICTED FROM THE BIG BROTHER HOUSE


Since Michelle’s eviction on Friday, the nation has been voting to decide who will win Big Brother 5 out of the five remaining housemates. During tonight’s 9pm show, while the housemates were enjoying a party provided by Big Brother (as a reward for completing today’s mini task), STUART was called to the Diary Room and told that a vote count has just been taken and as the person with the least number of votes at this stage, he is NOW being evicted from the Big Brother house. He did not have a final chance to say goodbye to his now former housemates before he left. DAVINA McCALL immediately greeted STUART –the eighth person to be evicted this year - for his first ever Big Brother interview.

By the time phone lines closed this evening, 1,927,189 viewers had cast their vote and 134,337 voted for Stuart. This constitutes 7% of the total ‘vote to win’ votes to date.

On hearing the news, Stuart asked, “tonight?” and then continued, “Woh! Yeh, it’s been jokes, it’s been cool. I’ve enjoyed every minute. Thank you.” He then asked Big Brother if he could go to the toilet, before being taken outside to the awaiting crowd.

When the rest of the housemates realised he’d left, they immediately jumped to the conclusion that he’s won the show. Michelle will be in the studio to greet him during Davina’s interview.
