The two housemates with the fewest votes are in the vault and will be evicted.

…this is how I recall it as well…well, if that’s the actual text then I guess there’s a reason for my recollection……but even though I don’t think that BB specifically said the bottom 4….they cheekily knew what the interpretations would be…people aren’t ‘accidentally’ confused …they’ve been led to that confusion…

Point me in the right direction because I didn't see this.

I’ve literally just rewatched it and they didn’t say what bots is saying

My thinking for BB picking Segun and Nathan is out of everyone left they are the ones the majority of the public assumed would be at risk (even though they may actually be higher on the actual votes) so makes sense to pick them.

Also for the housemates to choose it made it harder. The safe 4 have all been saved from a recent eviction and had cheers.

Out of the vault 4; two had never faced an eviction, one hasn’t faced a live eviction since week 1 and one only faced an eviction without a crowd. So much harder to gauge how the public feel about them.

Yes they didn’t say anything about the 4 going in have the lowest votes, they said two of the four have the lowest votes. Were meant to (and the HMs are too) believe that the other two were random.

I think BB probably thought that they would choose Tom and Segun as safe as they were the two at the top of the line up as most likely to win.

Oh no. Definitely not Tom. They knew exactly what they were doing and the end result. Which is why Thomas went. The only thought BB had was about lowering the prize fund. ITV now have a reduced budget.

The latter part of my post was a joke.

I didn't think they specifically said that 4 had the lowest votes but it seems likely they had

It sounds like you think that the two with the least votes were chosen from the 4 in the vault.

somewhat correct

(Or have I misunderstood?)

What I’m saying is that the two with the least votes were chosen from the 8 housemates. They were put in the vault because they were the lowest voted out of all 8.

Then they just chucked in another 2 in order to create suspense/for the housemates to bet.

Not necessarily correct. Who chose the other 2?

But Thomas and Sarah would always have been put in the vault and would always have been evicted.

But that's your opinion. Not fact.

I'm not trying to be pedantic on this. I just need reasoning and nobody has convinced me otherwise. Yet.

It’s not my opinion. I’m pretty sure that before putting anyone in the vault, BB said to the housemates that the public had been voting to win, and that the 2 housemates with the lowest votes would now be evicted.

Now you’re saying this I’m questioning my memory! And I can’t be bothered to go back and rewatch it. But I’m pretty sure that’s what they said.

So effectively it's your opinion.

No….it’s my memory of what took place… That’s not the same thing as an opinion.

Listen. Why don’t you just go and watch the episode again?!

No. You aren't showing me fact. It's your opinion on what you can remember. Two very different things.

[joeysteele]

I think they selected most probably 2 who were high on the voting and the 2 who were the bottom two
Not just the bottom 4 overall.

That may leave some housemates thinking that Nathan and Segun are 5th and 6th in the voting when that may well not be the case.

So they mixed it all up a bit.

[moon_peach]

Just saw someone’s quoted it. ‘The two housemates with the lowest votes are in the vault’. That says it all. Obviously the two housemates with the lowest votes out of the 4 in the vault would be in the vault…. So they mean the 2 housemates with the lowest votes overall are in the vault

I'm not sure what the argument is here? They didn't specifically say that the 4 who went into the Vault were the 4 with the least votes, if I was to guess I would have put those 4 as the ones with the lowest votes but that might not be the case. I suppose BB don't want us to know for sure

There's no argument on my behalf. Some can't seem to grasp my thoughts. I haven't seen any conclusive evidence since my initial post. It's all "I am right! I am right!" I'm bored with it all now. Nobody has answered my question. It's become quite banal.

Because there isn't an answer to your question as far as I know, they didn't explain it

Exactly. But I had to question it. And ooh lordy!
