its been a mess for years!

we dont REALLY know the true votes that people get, we only know what they tel us! putting nikki back in last year was the biggest disrespect for me, all those people voting to get her out only to have her back in again. as long as ch4 make their money they could care less about anyone else.

well said BB has been my fav programme since it started but last year kind of left a bitter taste in my mouth and it seems if BB producers want someone in or to stay that is what happens reguardless of the public voting

Well alot of people I know haven't voted since the Nikki going back in thing. It showed the show for being a complete farce then. If they want to continue the show they seriously need to be more careful. You can only blame the contestants for so much. The bb producers are more to blame and the person who messed up the evict/save thing has lost people alot of money. It might just be 50p but it all adds up especially as it doesn't say nothing about getting money back on the c4 site. Maybe they will show it tonight or something but people who voted to save Ken didn't get a penny back when he walked.

The format of the show has changed alot and people are losing interest fast with all the mistakes people are making. I think it would say alot if nobody bothered to turn in to the final or vote...that would hit them alot harder than petitions and complains.

So that means, all votes cast are not going to count.

The Head people at Endemol are really losing their brains, not that they had much this year

...by the way, how come davina said "you will be evicted shortly" to jade? then only for BB to come back on an hour later??? an hour isn't "shortly" is it! & the last 24-48hrs up until jade being evicted, some serious kissing up was being done. & it was all thanks to BB mentioning to jade & danielle about their behaviour. jade & danielle are to thick to realise themselves, so BB had to help them realise. & up til now, jo hasn't realised! she said something about "pushing dirk over the edge..." or something, thats nice!

its all a big fix imho...

It's pretty much common knowledge that Jade left about five minutes after the first show ended, met with her advisors then had a taped interview with Davina.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Statement re Friday night eviction vote:

Last night, at the end of Celebrity Big Brother, there was an error in the on-screen information about Friday night's eviction vote in relation to the eviction phone line details for Shilpa. While the voice-over was correct and stated "To vote to evict Shilpa" the on-screen text mistakenly read "To vote to save Shilpa".

Endemol has issued this statement:

"This was a genuine mistake which was due to human error. We apologise to viewers and feel the best way to rectify it is to cancel the vote so far and re-open the voting again this evening, at the end of tonight's show. We have consulted with our independent adjudicator before making this decision.

Viewers who voted can have a full refund and any unclaimed monies will be donated to charity. Following this error the profits from Friday night's re-opened eviction voting will also go to the candidates charities."

Does anyone think they should stick to one way voting from now on? So voting to save all the time so there is no confusion.

[S2]

^ it'll be so much easier.
But I think they alternate between vote to "save" and vote to "evict" to make it harder, especially when there is more than 2 people up

[BigSister]

how will they be able to refund the money
And yeah GE i think they should stick to a same system either save or evict

[GlitterEyes]

No idea how they will refund the money...and I cannot see that many bothering to actually get it back unless they spent alot. I would like to know what the voting was like up until they closed the lines...that is IF they are now closed. Plus has anyone here voted yet?...If so, will you be bothering voting again tonight?

[lilmissnaughty]

I've voted twice, I might vote again but on the house phone & not my mobile so I don't have to pay for it if they screw up again lol

[GlitterEyes]

Will be be bothering to claim it back?...that is if it can be done without spending out more money.

[Emilee]

Im glad i didnt vote now, even though you do get a refund.

[hass]

whats this then? big brother gave the wrong number out on the shows for Shilpa, whose number was actually to vote her to stay in, whilst people were voting the rest to go out.

Now all the votes have been cancelled and the numbers have been changed. what a ruse. Shilpa is going to win and its going to be rigged.

[Red Moon]

Just a reminder to check that a topic doesn't already exist before starting a new one.

the phone number for shilpa was to keep her in. its a fix.

The two-way voting really affects people under the radar.
