Default So what if...

....Jack had taken the car?....what would have been the point of carrying on?..what would have been the point of voting for a winner?....and would there have been anyone left apart from Jack who just wants time away from gambling?...

They all may as well have walked and just saved themselves the hassle. It's not like they would've won any money if they stayed in there.

That's what made it a pathetic twist.... Whoever thought that one up needs sacking. It could also have backfired...that would have made great headlines...

They'd probably fast forward to next year and pretend its now bb17 with their ****ty timebomb twists so that there was a new prize fund.

The prize money would have been reinstated at some point.

The next task would have involved building the prize fund back up.

Otherwise people would have walked from the show.

They would have found a way to bring him back probably, he's the chosen one this series.

I agree, this was absolutely one of the biggest wastes of time as to BB ever.

It could never have backfired as Pie Face was picked by BB to be the 'winner'.

They knew he wouldn't take the car and if he had, they'd probably had a backup follow up twist.

If Jack had taken the car they said the prize fund would go to zero. They didn't say the housemates couldn't earn it back. Sometimes you have to think out of the box.

Yeah it was quite clearly set up, they would have known Jack wouldn't leave given such a stupid dilemma like that.

Not very well thought through at all.
