Default Complain To OfCom...Get It On The News!!!

If enough people complain to OfCom about Brian winning being a "FIX" it will eventually end up on the news, meaning Big Brother will yet AGAIN..be in danger..

So i'm urging you to COMPLAIN TO OFCOM!!!

Thank You.

Cos OfCom don't have bigger things to deal with... as in, actual cases - with factual standing...

Oh please, Brian won fair and square.

After all the fuss about quiz fixing recently, you really think Endermol would pull a stunt like fixing BB???

And why would I complain to OfCom to try and get BB in the news again.... if that happened they might take the show off air for good.

Any BB fan wouldnt want that

All the votes are checked by an independent body to make sure no mistakes are made. There is no way that channel 4 or the producers could fix the show. It would be easier to fix the next general election than Big Brother.

If people did write to OFCOM it wouldn't get them very far and at worse all the bad publicity could get the show pulled for good. No BB fan would want to see the show finished just because their housemate didn't win.

Stinks of trouble making here.

There is no fix. Where is your evidence?

1) Sarcasm is marked by intonations - therefore, as if you hadn't quite yet realised - pixelated text cannot account for this.

2) The whole point of sarcasm is that it's meant to be subtle yet obvious. This wasn't obvious. It was just boring.

3) It wasn't funny. Sarcasm is meant to highlight an underlying humour. Again, lacking.

I am angry about the Twins losing and have mentioned my feelings many times since the final. I do think there was a fix, but only by mass voting on Brian to win - because of Bookmakers losing loads of money, if the Twins won - which fortunitely for them, they didn't. I feel that members of the public were paid to phone and phone and phone and vote for Brian on the Bookmakers behalf - I guess this type of thing is common practice perhaps? But with this show, it looked very likely. The Twins were the housemates who should have won. I hate the result and am glad that there is anger on such a massive scale - the Twinnies deserve that

I don't know what Ofcom could do really? Even if they did find something dodgy. These type of reality shows can always get labelled as being a fix - especially where phonevoting is concerned. I doubt that the X-Factor could be any different. I imagine that we will be shouting and screaming about the eventual finalist in December - but what are we to do? Just get angry!!!

I don't want Big Brother to be in danger. I just wanted the Twinnies to Winnies

Complaining to Ofcom because someone's favourite didn't win? That would just be throwing the toys out the pram.

I wanted the twins to win, but Brian won and i don't believe there was a fix, and if your actually complain to ofcom, that's sad.

Actually I'm going to complain to Ofcom because I wanted Ziggy to come 6th The_stillness has made me realise that there must have been mass voting by those people who must have loved Ziggy - Those people who called themselves 'fans'! It is shocking I know everyone but we must accept this truth.

I'm off to compose my letter you wicked fans who voted.

Brian won fair and square.

I might be complaining about BB anyway, but only about the Ziggy race row and how he was given a chance when Emily wasn't, by the same producers who have always claimed that they "treat all housemates fairly".

lol Ofcom love it when people complain.

I don't trust BB at all, or the fact that Biran won, but there ent no point in complaining, as we would never find out the truth.

Oh My God! How pathetic? Like OfCom is really going to listen to a stupid complaint like that when there is a more serious incident concerning Ziggy and a racist term...

hi guys. let me just say something. for our final between aleisha and zach in australia. in the end aleisha won 51-49. but, there was some big news, mike goldman later on said that the computer was jammed because of how many votes had been going on. so they said they would give it to Aleisha. he said the machine crashed and the results stayed the same from 15 mins of voting left or something. thats why i got an sms saying my vote for aleisha was nto registered because votes were offline

We already knew that and finally, they didn't do anything because the did count the final votes and Aleisha was still the winner.
