So what do you take that to mean? As after all block voting is allowed on any other Reality Show that has public voting so why is BB removing that? Imo that is a form of rigging the votes only they can't get into trouble for it as the public are suppose to know that it's in their terms & conditions and therefore it's not officially breaking the law.

Also it's quite convenient that ever since we've had this amending votes being introduced to BB we've had people like Conor surviving public votes, we had Ash beating Matthew when every poll had Ash to go with 75 to 80%, we had Helen winning, we had Callum losing to Hazel, we had Faye beating Jay in that week 5 vote of BB12.

When Ch4 however had BB and didn't have the amend voting system around, the evictions felt a lot more believable.
Its if any of the votes are dodgy, fraudulent and so on they have the right to amend them but they must also have and prove that they have reasonable grounds to do so, what you described is just outright illegal and would land not only endemol but also channel 5 in a **** load of trouble, why would they even risk that?

And even after all that ALL VOTES ARE REGULATED BY THE ELECTORAL COMMISION..

What you described above just does not happen.

And btw, the rules were the exact same on C4 so not sure where you are getting your info from?

5. Channel 4 reserves the right to discount votes if it has reasonable grounds to suspect that fraudulent bulk votes have been cast.
Channel 4 may suspend, withdraw or re-set voting at its sole discretion.

Ch5 did not word it like that, they said that they can amend the vote after the results are in basically.
