They always over think twists that sound good but are poorly executed.

Emma could have even escorted them across the walkway between houses, there was no reason for them to go down the stairs and then back up again

It's just all too over produced and gimmicky. Smoke machines/sirens/menacing force. Just.

If they look at the most successful twists they were the most simple of things. That and they weren't done every single week for five years to the point where they're beyond mundane.

The show is becoming unwatchable to me. Am I supposed to be excited by a moving staircase?

The show can't even afford live twitter updates anymore. It's unbelievably cheap and poorly conceived to the point that it's getting embarrassing.

Ten housemates going in on Tuesday followed by the six Others on Friday would've been just fine. I'm frankly tired of all this "stealing" malarky.

The twist seems to be based on the Half way house from BB8 and that was one of the stupidest twists in the Channel 4 era of BB and it was the series that killed off BB on Channel 4 imo.

The demonic music, the smoke, the moving staircase, twists that no one can understand, including the presenter and especially the housemates who have nevertheless guessed that the two "evicted" weren't at all.

Every year you hope they'll listen to fans and do something right with this show and every year it gets worse. The show had a winning formula and every time they've strayed too far away from it it has damaged the show.
