I remember when you could only be put up for eviction by being one of the 3 HM or more with the highest Nominations, then BB started twisting the Nominations procedure with face to face Noms which did not reflect truly the HM that were going to be put up. then BB introduced save and replace which allowed a Nom HM to save him/herself at the expense of any other HM popular/Big character or not.

Now BB is changing the rules again to effectively lie to HM by rewarding them with safe house and Nom immunity only to secretly put them up for eviction again without any Nom procedure.

Is this Big Brother ?? really.....? with no real rules, a sort of anything goes mentality where the producers can introduce twist after twist and effectively manipulate the show to keep in or evict HM that they think will pull in the highest ratings.

Big Brother now is basically a lottery for the HM, even the actions of the HM are not genuinely reproduced on the highlights show, what with selective editing and little or no live feed it is not possible to really see all the HM and decide on a favourite.

With VTE and not VTS the lively characters leave far too early and coupled with boring tasks we are left with a show that if a lot of people on this forum were honest would say is struggling to emulate the shows of the past.

Anyone still not decided on a winner yet ? Gina,Dexter,Dan,Callum , strange after 4 weeks and still no clear favourite.....
