What's that about? I thought it would only be the Americans who broke ranks and voted for each other, but Gail really surprised me by voting for 2(technically 3) on her own team.

What's up with that?

[chuff me dizzy]

Sneaky cow,wouldn't pick Farrah,Jenna because she wont get on the wrong side of them ,she wants to appear this weak little woman,and is not prepared to blow her cover by risking the wrath of the 2 house bitches

I'm really shocked. I thought the Americans were destroying themselves by breaking ranks. WE all already knew that Austin and Janice have broken ranks and tried to cosy up to the brits...

i'm really shocked that Gail used all of her noms on fellow brits, and Bobby also voted for someone on his own team. He nommed Gail, and Gail didn't even nominate him. It's an interesting dynamic, and i don't understand it just based on the highlight shows. I feel like we are missing something that only live feed could explain.

Gail did nom Bobby for the same reason he nommed her so he could be with his family I wasn't surprised with her nomming Chloe/Stevie

Hi Alex.
My head is in the shed, I replied to this post on the lines of the Brits having to vote for each other last week....when actually they didn't have a vote.
I shouldn't go near the keyboard until I have had my coffee and meds and the fog clears out of my brain

When it comes to noms it is an interesting situation.Do you nom those you least wish to live with or do you stay with the brits/American divide.? I would hope the former I do not recall any brits complaining when brits have nominated brits yet I have certainly heard some of the americans accuse each other of traitorous behaviour when doing so.

I wonder if this does come down to a cultural outlook with the americans feeling that winning is everything and the brits more inclined to think the participation is the fun.?

I am not suggesting that either view is right or wrong but it might be playing a part in some peoples noms.

Agree with Mick ^

I think this is the first time any Brits have ever nominated any other Brits... so of course you haven't heard them complain, because it has never happened before...

I suspect that the other Brits will definitely have noticed and be more suspicious of Gail.

I don't know the stats but this is not my recollection.I am sure I recall at least Stevi and Chloe previously nom by Gail.?

how would the other brits know that?

[Withano]

She voted for her least favourite in the house.. Theres only gonna be one winner and I dont think Gail really cares who it is. She voted for the people she wanted to live with least, not the team she wanted to win the least. Im sure she doesnt care which team wins either, nor would I.

Yes I take your point it was DR nominations.So it will be interesting to see how the brits react after these face to face ones but I still suspect less negative comment RE noming there own.

[lostalex]

I'd like to know how the face to face noms actually work.

do they have to pick their 2 nominations BEFORE they know that it is face to face? like does BB trick them? or did they know already they had to do face to face before they chose? or did they get to pick already knowing that it would be face to face?

I think they were told it was face to face, they then all receive cards with each housemates pic on. They choose two cards then nominations started

[Lostie!]

Okay, I've grown more annoyed of her in recent episodes but this is grasping at straws to criticise her. The "teams" aren't official, they have no obligation to nominate based on where they're from.
