Saw this thread on DS and 100% agree. I watch the show and love it, but my god, the 12th season was so manipulated! People complain about BBUK but it's probably one of the most fair BB's in the world.
For around 4 months, 2 HMs would be given immunity from the public (fair), 2 from the Hms (sort of fair) and 2 from the PRODUCERS. Made me laugh that for around 12 weeks, the producers chose the same female to be immune every week hence the public disliking her.
Every week, a HM would be able to either see or speak to a member of their family/friends, they would also see what the media was saying by looking at interviews speaking about them every eviction night to create drama.
However it does have full live feed.
For those who think BBUK is manipulated, go and visit the Wiki page for S12 of Italian BB.
