I reckon Simon was intended to be evicted on launch and get promo for the show as the exciting launch night eviction. Then the producers thought the series was going stale so they told Simon to go in for a week (wow, seems longer) and then he could walk. In that time Simon has caused conflict with nominating Eileen etc.

no i think they always planned to put whoever was evicted launch night back in, it would be a waste to go through the whole audition process to get kicked out-and they know putting people in mid series always causes drama in the house!
