Seems obvious to me.

[Shaun]

what a sick, sick world

[JTM45]

I think it's also a way for them to recoup some of the voting cash that they lost with last weeks double outsider eviction that nobody seemed particularly keen to bother voting for.

This 'vote to save' crap is such a blatant way to make people have to spend more money to try and make sure their favourite is saved.

[Scotty07]

No, they love their darling insiders.

[Kate!]

About bloody time as well. Shame they had to wait till we lost our Lovely Lauren though..!

BB clearly realising that a final full of the scumbags = viewers switching off in droves.

[jyunga]

Insiders control an influence the house.
Outsiders control an influence the viewers (ie; the viewers like them more).

Last weeks face-to-face clear was unfair to the Outsiders.
This weeks nominations are clearly unfair to the Insiders.

Kinda balances out in the end imo.

[MatthewS]

BB shouldn't be attempting to change how the game plays out at all though.

If the ratings suck, fire the person responsible for picking who got into the house in the first place, but don't step in and start playing favourites and altering the natural course. That's not really the point of Big Brother. Might as well give each of the houstmates a script to read with just enough drama to keep us watching, but not enough to get ofcom pissy.

[jyunga]

Why would you fire the people that picked them? Are they supposed to be psychic? No one knows how things will play out in the house. People lie on their VTs too much.

I love the twists. It's not BBs fault the house is so divided (well maybe a little their fault since they allowed noms talk the first couple weeks). The last two nom twists wouldn't have seemed unfair if the house wasn't divided.

[billy123]

Well the fact that Deana Luke A and Caroline would of been up under usual rules sort of destroys your point really op.
Caroline would have been gone easily at least now the numpty has a chance.

[gravity]

They just want to offer Caroline as a sacrificial lamb to the public through edits while painting their thug Conor as a easygoing and good natured lad

[jaythegeek]

Its about time, or we would be left with a shockingly bad final

[WozMan]

Absolutely GUTTED They did it THIS week rather than last week. We would have kept Lauren over Ashleigh and this week Caz would have gone

[Yayita]

or to save caroline, she would have been gone.. it depends how you look at it

[Vicky.]

Ithink its more likely they are trying to make some money actually. I doubt they made much last week

Also this eviction is on the same time as the olympics, need to try and get viewers somehow :S

Indeed it does, BB is doing it right with this one.. But, its sad Lauren had to go.

[Becker]

I couldn't be happier about the situation. Well I would have if all of them had been up but i'll grab whatever is available.

Obviously a money spinner but i'm over the moon compared to how I thought it was going to go. Either way no outsider will be shown the door this week and I am delighted.

I just hope it's a double!

[HBB1508]

Would be great if it were a double and 2 of the insiders went just to even up the playing field a bit.

[vikram84]

After last weeks nominations they had to redeem themselves

[Petershaw1984]

Otherway round isnt it.?

[mkbb]

The twist was to save Caroline.

[erinp5]

If BB had not put them all up(not Scott/Becky) then LukeA/Deana/Caroline would face the public vote .Caroline would be a gonner.

[Mokka]

If you think they are doing it to save somebody than clearly its Caroline...

but I think they did it to save their ratings since the public have been disgusted with how the outsiders have been bullied this season and as a result viewership is down.

Either way, who claimed BB was fair or ever played fair????

[HBB1508]

I doubt BB care about saving any of them - for C5 it's all about the revenue and the best way to make more money is to have more people up - I guess the voting has been down given a lot of the public's favourites have been up so by doing this they are bound to increase their income.
