I can live with that kind of lie but I just fee,l thinking how I would feel myself, if I was a housemate in the safe house and was sked to 'save' another housemate from being nominated then I would be absolutely furious that I would have been put in that false position after being told the total opposite.
I actually would have felt so strongly that I think I would have left the show.

I understand many do see it is see as entertainment and I am in a minority. When though someone who has done no wrong has their chance totally removed from them,by a twist like this, which has had no real nominations decisions by all housemates.
Who has then to inflict same on another housemate who is then up too so they have no fighting chance,I consider that not only unfair but unacceptable.

I guess,I don't like this twist and never will. This is too far a step as a lie for me.
I prefer noms done by housemates with evictions decided by the public, not engineering from BB.
That is just how I am I guess.
I can see what you're saying Joey but if you go in as a housemate you have to expect the unexpected and understand that Big Brother can do just about anything they want to you or to the group as a whole, you sign a contract basically allowing them to do whatever they want. And the most important rule in the welcome pack is that 'Big Brother can change the rules at any time'. Evil and cruel twists are all part and parcel of the show and if you were a housemate you'd have to expect just about anything and realise that's what you agreed to sign up to.

Also, it's not the first time they've done an evil lie twist like this. Like when they did the House Next Door in BB7, and Aisleyne thought the new housemates she was 'evicting' were actually leaving when in fact they were moving into the main house, and then she alone had to decide whether to evict Spiral or Jonathan for real and as a result she ended up in floods of tears for the rest of the night. One of the cruelest twists they've ever done but unfortunately that's what she agreed to sign up to.

Totally agree Jack and I see yours and Visage's point completely.

I think this series has made me now very determined never to think of even trying to go on BB ever because I for sure could not sign up to do this to anyone what Sophie and Sam are being asked to.
If I am really frank, I don't like it that Sam and Sophie have had this done to them either.

It is secrets and lies so that as you point out is what was signed up to,I take that on board totally.
I just draw the line at lies that deliberately ruin someones chances on things.

Ha!


As much as I love this show, I could never sign up to it, my head wouldn't cope and I would bring a whole new meaning to paranoia..

Though if you ever did go in there, I'm 100% sure you would have the support of everyone on here..

I always said if I tried to and got there I would only go in with someone I knew or knew of.
Even with someone off here but I would have to have a connection to someone in there.

I don't really think I could cope with the paranoia either, especially this series.
I think I would be hated actually Visage.
Dan is disliked around this forum but I would be more like him as a housemate, asking questions constantly, trying to work people and things out, always supicious and more to the point never stopping going on about it either.

You know what Joey? I think I would be the exact same. I'm so curious about people and I'm always inquisitive, plus if I did think someone was lying I would go on & on like Dan.

I guess that's where the dislike might appear because fans don't like the housemates to work out all the twists.

I also believe that if someone was acting odd, I would shout out 'secret mission' again alienating myself from those who dislike that kind of thing.

I'm more suited as a viewer than a housemate lol

I would never for any amount of money sign up to it, It would send me round the twist and I'd have a nervous breakdown and I'd be the whole time so would definately be put up on week one. Nope, I'll stick to being a viewer, its better for my health
