Default The twist as a whole

We have reached the end of fake week now, what did you make of the week as a whole? did you enjoy it or was it a dissapointment in the end?

I liked it, but it's all sort of sketchy. The things Charley were saying was not things the real Charley would say. All seemed quited staged to me. But a good twist nonetheless.

Yes I agree with GabrielleisLove, the whole thing was too staged and BB producers got the whole thing wrong by telling charley that something was going to happen in the 1st place. It should have just been a normal eviction but with the H/M's watching.

So few questions. To much time wasted showing her what the housemates have already seen. Pointless. Another damp squib.....

Would have been impossible the housemates would have learnt far too much information about the housemates portrayal in the series so far. This way it got the feel of a eviction interview but without giving too much away. This way it was just kind of like the housemates watching Charley in the Diary Room.

Overall I enjoyed it, there were parts of it that were a mess and left me slightly confused but it was at least interesting.

The first half of the week was a let down but the second half was really good, it's such a shame because it could of been just as good.

The fake housemate was unneccicerilly ruined.
They did some really cool fake stuff, like the tasks and plane message ect but they didn't start doing them untill the second half of the week.
The fake eviction was really good.

It was a brilliant idea, but the execution was poor. The fake hm was a great move, but telling Brian and then taking her out of the house so quickly was a big let-down. As for Charley's eviction, it was like spending Bonfire Night listening to the neighbours having a party that you weren't invited to, and then your dad comes home with a packet of sparklers.

I thought there was alot of positives to take from the week and the experiment as a whole created some interesting moments. The introduction of the actress got everybody very excited, but of course, actors/actresses need stage directions so Big Brother had to get involved alot. I noticed people were annoyed at that and thought Pauline should have been left to do what she wants or been told to do evil things, but that would have just been a bit daft, in my opinion. The actress did her job well, very well infact, she got in amongst the housemates, interacted with just about eveybody and all the premeditated thoughts of her being an actress were left completely up in the air, as proved when they came to rate each others "fakeness". No one said Pauline, and it was left to Brian to save the task at the last minute, having been tipped off by Big Brother in the diary room. It was a task they couldn't fail, but without it being spelled out for them, not one of them had the conviction to call Pauline out as a fake.

Later in the week we got the plane flying overhead and the satellite link to the Peace campaign, again everybody swallowed it hook, line and sinker apart from Carole, who has these sorts of events in a diary!!! Don't try and spell it out any clearer Big Brother! For all the uming and ahing these people do, they don't have the slightest clue about what's really going on. Ever. Apart from maybe Carole, at a push. That's the real truth we learnt this week.

As for the eviction, the event as a whole was a bit anti-climactic, but this was no mistake. Just like the money giveaway wasn't the mistake people like to claim it was, this fake eviction will create days if not weeks of solid entertainment, people changing tactics, pondering what's really happening outside, trying to make friends with Charley, new approaches to arguments with Charley, maybe even some walk outs? Whatever happens, it's clear the producers have learnt how to use subtle twists which effect the whole week, rather than emphatic momentary twists which only last for the evening. Game on, I think.
