Thumbs down What's with the massively OTT reaction to the the twist?

I see people calling for a boycott just because of the noms twist, and thinking immediately that Big Brother's trying to save Wolfy what actually indicates that they're trying to save Wolfy? And why on earth do people think the house all of a sudden adore Wolfy and will save her?

Honestly, stop running to such random conclusions just because there's a slight chance someone you hate might be saved. The same thing seems to be happening on DS the producers will never take any of us seriously if this thing persists because they'll just assume we like to moan at everything so there's no point listening to us when they do something really dreadful & we complain.

Because its a blatant manipulation to keep Wolfy in the house. Manipulation is one of the things that ruined BB on channel 4 and it looks like 5 haven't learned from the lesson.

It isn't a twist - it is a fix.

Maybe you conspiracy theorists should take into account that there's 4 people up, so maybe they're trying to narrow it down, and that makes much more sense

and if Dan gets saved is it a fix to save him? it could easily go either way.

I think Dan is more likely to stay if its an HM save but i do think it is wrong to announce after the nominations.

It was so obvious Wolfy was gonna be up, she annoyed loads of HMs regarding the cigarettes, so they would have known. Much more logical to assume after realising 4 people were up they wanted to introduce the twist.

OK ask yourself why now? Why after no twist last week we have the face to face nomination - which were announced last week - then suddenly with no announcement we wake up to find they've changed the eviction process. Then ask yourself who is more likely to be saved by the HM's?

Yes because they would normally do stuff like this to save the public from spending more money on voting....

Not usually one for shouting fix but there's something not right with this twist.

I'm not saying it's to save Wolfy though because I think theres a good chance Dan will be saved.

We will see but so far it's pretty obvious Wolfy's gonna be saved also why the need to do this twist out of the blue? just let the public choose between the 4 options, whoever gets the most to be evicted is out, the twist is unnecessary and it reeks of fix.

I don't know maybe she's mole, maybe they like her earth mother nonsense but to change the rule with absolutely no warning smells like a fix.

Well WE are supposed to decide Salman,obviously it's BB that decides,the housemates nominated 4 so 4 should be up if it's a fair playing field.
