am really not digging the new format. it's just diet survivor now instead of big brother. the lack of audience input is baffling

How is keeping on sbong's good side a better move than voting him out as soon as he doesn't win a challenge?

If he keeps winning, you aren't getting nominated. That's very valuable.

The aim at this stage is to not get nominated, which is through winning challenges and people winning challenges who won't nominate you. If the person winning the challenges and nominating isn't you, there's less of a target on your back when someone else wins.

But that's great for Soobong, terrible strategy for the others though.

Ian liked her, they got along well. She has no reason to assume he'd nominate her. Ian was manipulated by the "cool kids." He did what they wanted, not what he wanted.

She won two endurance challenges in a row. She'd be a fool to think she wasn't going to get nominated. And I don't see how Ian was manipulated by the cool kids. And if he was so what? That's good strategy by them.

I thought the SNAG they have playing BB said she would be watching for three days. So one eviction cycle/daily show. I guess that means she gets to miss being nominated for the next show, if that makes sense.

Nah, he says "a few days". They've got the clip of it in James Weir's recap.

Big Brother recap: Evil twist after fan-fave’s slam-dunk tirade

Big Brother’s fan favourite is axed by her fellow housemates on Tuesday after she lashes them in a slam-dunk tirade where she details why they’re all the worst – the exact rant we’ve imagined serving to our colleagues.

Some people fall prey to peer pressure more than others. Dan is a prime example. As soon as Talia was out of the picture, his demeanour changed from being overtly aggressive (open threats of vengeance toward Angela) to being outwardly more passive, but secretly (if somewhat impotently) plotting. I think Ian is much more of his own man than people give him credit for. His eccentricity shows that he doesn't bow to peer pressure. What if his strategy is to gravitate to the popular group for protection until he can play his long game? I bet he's one of the more popular HMs in the public's eyes. People who come out of the gates plotting and making dumb moves, like Kieran and Dan (look what happened to Allan and Talia) don't make it through.

Dan made the smart move making peace with Angela.

This would usually happen in the old format too. IE At leaast the HMs would nominate them to go.

I think it's a huge mistake not showing each HM's eviction choices. The nomination/eviction process gives the audience so much valuable insight into the HMs internal machinations and strategies, and we're getting so little of that, even with them being able to discuss nominations.

They're on 7plus. - though even those often appear to cut short some explanations.

And, yes - I'd rather see them in the broadcast episode.

So much extraneous footage of Keiran to show - otherwise they could've been added to the end of each episode, before the previews of the next show. I hope, if there is a next season, they tweak the flaws in the edit.

Can you imagine the old 10 format, when they showed the highlights real of the player in the house when they get sent packing, featuring Kieren accompanied by "the good times we had"? We will be seeing his tongue flicking in slow motion and all his "moves"! Ya i will maintain that Kieren is Big Bro's pet minion.
