Wow - a long read. So much to comment on.
Did we just start Monday night after those new housemates in, therefore skipping everything that happened on Monday before 9pm?
Come on! We just missed an entire weekend of content, and now we can't even see what happened on Monday. These housemates think we get to see all the interesting things they do, but we don't. Jasmin and Sharon could be the most interesting people in that house, but I would never know. If they were up for eviction, they would go as a result. It's making it difficult to find a housemate to support other than the ones that we are told to like.
It's unfair to us and it's unfair to the housemates.
And the footage from last night was poor too - all we seemed to see was Tully crying, the "twins" doing not a lot and a quick convo with Rohan in the diary room - but zero footage of him in the house (other than going to bed).
So, just so we're clear, we've barely seen anything from the house from Friday to Monday. This is a problem!
Exactly - they seem to have 7 1/2 hours of airtime across the week with nearly half of it being highlights of Tuesday and Wednesday, then the rest of the week having to share with nominations, Showdown and the eviction.
The nominations are properly live, right? I don't see the "LIVE HOUSE" graphic...
Was absolutely clear they weren't live - just like Showdown you can just tell. Also seemed clear Sonia was on a secondary set rather than the main stage - it just all felt a bit cheap. Someone in the Showdown thread said Shelly filmed her part for Showdown in Sydney so I guess this was the same set, presumably to enable Sonia to do more editions of Mornings across the week.
I would love to nominate! Would be so fun. I can't believe some people cry over it. It is a game!!!!
Exactly. People wouldn't go on Millionaire and cry about having to answer questions, so why complain about nominating on BB. Also think how a HM nominates reveals a lot about them - not just how they feel about each other but how they see the game themselves.
Wow, Tahan voting strategy! Didn't see that coming!
A really wasted vote so early on though - you don't vote strategically in week 1 based on not being able to beat someone in the final. Kicking out Ed now would make it harder for Tahan to make the finals - in the early weeks you vote out the people who would vote you out before beginning to think about who you can beat when it gets to the end.
So surprised Mikkayla is getting so many votes - guess they don't show her yelling and stuff.
Was quite surprised too - especially from the Halfway House people. I suspect she'd have got less if the twist had been revealed earlier.
HAHA, loved that lipstick compliment from BB
Yep, brilliant stuff. Don't like BB putting words into the housemates mouths though when it comes to nominations.
The chamber is better quality from last year. It's been rebuilt.
Why do I say that, cause it is. The door was on the side last year and this year its on the back.
Yes, was clearly improved but still pointless IMO. Just a novelty they could do without really and have noms back in the diary room - though it is good it's kind of neutral ground considering the divide twist.
I love how everyone is comforting M when they all voted for her, lol
It's the same the world over - people seemingly so shocked the person they nominated is up for eviction.
Bye Sharon...that is my prediction
Completely agree.
Wow. Mikkayla has to decide?? Interesting twist I must say. Kinda harsh, but also pretty powerful!
That was a bit wrong IMO. Firstly why not allow a tie - they've got 10 in the Safe House so why not 7 in the Half Way House? Secondly the highest nominee can be tied for points too - so would be fairer if it was the Showdown winner making the call if there has to be one, and considering the divide twist I think fairer that they save one of the 7 rather than just the tied HMs, giving people like Mikkayla who have been in there already a chance to escape it.
WHAT. THE. HELL?!?!? Nominations are not final!?!??!?! INTRIGUED TO THE MAX!
Pretty sure it'll be the Save and Replace task from BBUK 2010, where the nominees compete - winner saves themselves and replaces themself with a HM of their choice. Tough call on who they would choose - Heidi is a safe option as she only just missed out, though if Tim wins it could be anyone.
Yeah the whole editing of Mikkayla v Tully and the resulting housemate noms have me really interested in what really went down.
Very good point - we don't seem to have seen the full story at all.
good that tim is up
