We've been calling Sticks the 'Prophet of Doom' on here for a long long time Hooley and I think he revels in it

You can't beat a bit of doom propheting every now and then. So here is a bit more...

It appears there have been a few complaints made to ofcom about the big fight night. With the shadow of ofcom on their tails BB producers may well chicken out on the amount of evil they can safely put the housemates through and as such it may degenerat into another BB4. Then again it may not.

Bear in mind though the cencorship philosophy in this country is that if a handfull of people complain about something and that complaint is upheld by ofcom then all 60 million residents of good old so called free Britain will have been controled by about 6 persons.

I'd like Sticks to get more involved and give his opinions on this series rather than being such a pessimistic. He's a great poster and wish he'd give us his thoughts on the goings-on.

Actually the rule I heard is that 1 complaint equates to 10,000 people who have kept silent.

Also we are no longer prophets of doom, but Life Changes Presentation Consultants

Never heard of that rule but who knows any maddness is possible under the previous (still in force) regulation regime.

The rules are to be reviewed after a consultation exercise. No doubt they will probably change it to something equally stupid.....

This decision is an utter disgrace. Her safety could have easily been assured by evicting the Al capone slickman himself. He has broken the rules often enough for this to have happened.

BB has allowed him to intimidate them with his threats to humiliate her if she returned which would have sparked her off again.

This should have been regarded as blackmail and he should have been given his final warning.

The public also have been abused here by having to wittness a gross act of injustice to a young woman just wanting to participate and enjoy a game show.

BB has aided and abeted an act of blackmail from Victor. Offcom I believe should get involved with the regards to the conduct of Ch4.....

No matter what BB did in this case we would have disagreed with them! I feel Emma should stay but lots are gald she's going it's a lose , lose situation for BB but one they had to make for Emma's sake.

I think that C4 and Endemol have done exactly the right thing, and I 100% agree with their decision.

Under these circumstances this should be last BB series ever. If they cannot conduct a fair and honourable game show it deserves to be be taken off our screens.

I agree entirely with your comments Banarama. I think Sticks has put the evil eye on the programme.

They only have themselves to blame. They were so desperated to make this year's BB watchable they put 12 completely psychotic individuals into a smaller house, tried some 'evil' ways and watched when the inevitable disaster happened = I'm sure the producers (according to them) have done nothing wrong. But I am afraid tonight's decision and the fact that the others are all still there has ruined the whole programme for me.

Are we still going to have an evil BB or are they going to revert to a nice BB now to keep the peace?

What started off very positively has deteriorated into a farce.

Who knows what will emerge now as BB will be wetting their pants scared of controversy while the two psychotics are still aboard.

When they have gone no doubt the public will vote out the remaining ineresting ones like Michelle and Venessa on the ground of they are playing a game. they will then be left with a bunch of weeds......

Daniel has gone up in my estimation but the point is he is still quite boring to watch no matter how nice and mature he may be.....

I don't want to see another quiet man win. I want to see a player win. Not a dirty filth player like the two egg heads but a real player.

I think only Michelle and Vennesa are respectible players but Venessa will go next week. Perhaps Stuart might have a card or two up his sleeve......I don't know...
