Default The twins have sussed that C4 wants them out

From Digital Spy

The twins have definitely got it right.

Already people have been told that if they are still around then Brian, the chosen one can not win. The legions of Brian fans are thus being mobilised to tactically vote them out.

The twins are now odds on favourite to be evicted this Friday, even if they were up against Amy

That last bit hardly makes sense. Just because their are Brian fans they are automatically going to answer the call to arms and evict the twins because they pose a threat?!

I think it's the other way around, I think C4 wants them to win.

If you are a fan of Brian, and the Twins are capable of beating him. In order to make sure he wins, you must get rid of the competition when you can.

If they are contender to take the crown from another HM if they reached the final, strategically you must vote them out.

Amy will be up next week, so the argument goes, why waste a vote.

This is what will happen

This is what C4 wants as Brian is the Chosen one

Look at past "Chosen Ones" (apart from Alex BB3) see the pattern.

The twins are history

Brian fans can still be twin fans. Like me, for example.

I'd be surprised if they went this Friday, only because they're the most likable females in there at the moment.

First of of as seperate, the twins dont cause any threat of winning to Brian. The closest was amanda and she was not even as popular as Jonty. So they have nothing to gain by putting the twins together. Secondly the pairing only increases their chances of getting votes against brian.
The bigger threat to Brian wouldve been Liam or Jonty, not sam or amnda seperated

I don't think so people wouldn't think like that, unless Brian is nominated this week which I doubt. Unless it's Brian whoever is nominated this week will go over the twins.

Can some kind person explain to me how the twins being one will pose a threat to Brian? I'm so confused. I get that they will be vote as one, be evicted as one etc...but not the part about them now posing a threat to Brian.

Do you honestly think the often one track minded voting public is going to have a battle plan like that?

Whether they are likeable or not is beside the point. We are talking about tactical voting.

Lauren, if you are a Brian fan, why do you want the Twins to possibly rob him of the title? Logic dictates you must vote them out if you want Brian to win. That is tactical voting.

And C4 know it.

Quotes from Digital spy

Quote:
BTW it's great to see all the Brian fans claiming their dislike for the twins

Thread title

Quote:
Twins count as one - Brian's victory becomes easier
In that thread
Quote:
Add the two Twin votes together and Brian is HISTORY!!!

Only chance is to get the Twins out this week.
Same poster
Quote:
Only chance for Brian fans is get the Twins out this week.

They won't have another chance.
Another voice agreeing with me
Quote:
But their chances of getting to the final have just been shot to pieces so their chances of ( one of them ) actually winning have now gone completely.
No matter who they are against supporters of Brian , Liam Gerry etc. will all combine tactically to get rid of them - they could even go to one of the biggest percentages ever because of this
Quote:
By next Saturday Brian will be a runaway leader and Sam & Amanda will no longer be part of the show because they'll have been evicted.

Counting them as one is major disadvantage until the final which until now they were looking very likely to reach.
Quote:
Sam & Amanda were getting too close to challenging Brian so they have to go. Of course Endemol will make out that Liam is challenging him to increase voting numbers but the reality is that Brian will get 70-80 % of the final votes.
Quote:
I think the idea is that fans of other HMs will see this as their chance to get the twins out and remove them as a threat.

Also people who've bet on someone else winning will see this as their chance.

The probability that the twins will go this week definitely has increased, because without this twist they would not even be up; and while they probably would survive in a 2-way vote, a 3-way is much harder to predict.

I think it's significant that BB has combined them in a way that also puts them up for eviction. If BB just wanted to combine them, BB would have arranged the combination in some other way. And if BB wanted them to be a credible challenge in the final, to make it more exciting, why put them up artificially at all before the final?

I agree, C4 wants them to win actually. They won't be evicted his friday for sure. It doesn't make sense, in fact only Brian fans are scared becaue they know the twins will get the money.

I'm also a fan of the twins though, so why would I equally rob them of the title? Many Brian fans are also equally fans of the twins and will be thinking along the same lines.

technicly yes, but im afraid it doesnt work like that.
especially when most brian fans are also fans of the twins.

and remember we are voting to EVICT. who would pick up the phone to EVICT the twins, just because they like brian more?
most people arn't thinking about the winner yet, they can choose brian over them on final night....

you shal be proven wrong soon.

Dermot Guest on Fridays BBBM said he wanted to see the twins seperated to see what would happen......BB have tried to engineer his desire so BB were probably hoping the twins would not accept being as one....

Detmot has gone well down in my estimation.....

Not being rude or anything, but i dont think the majority of the public actually think like that or 'vote strategically', they just vote out who they dont like, and tbh there arent many people who dont liek the twins!

You only have to look at the change in the bookmakers' odds to work out that this move has made it more likely the twins will win not less.

Bookmakers aren't stupid.
