Vinnie's Eviction

He's taken it on the chin. Sure it would be a kick in the guts in the moment but he's already laughing it off. Either way he was evicted, end result was the same, plus he's getting his exit interview tonight. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

No-one said it was going to be all nice and cosy lol.

Hmmm wonder how Conor would cook that little number up??? šŸ¤”

The only ones ā€œoutragedā€ are young Australians who donā€™t know any better and expect things to be wrapped up nicely for them all the time. Even the BBUK and BBUS fans are applauding how well executed the surprise eviction was. As mentioned, this will go down as an iconic BBAU moment forever - something even Vinnie will relish in.

Exactly this! Some of you are in for a real shock if you watched BBUKā€¦

I'm an older viewer and I remember when the production team took the mental health of the contestants more seriously.

Not every disappointment or twist is a mental health issue.

I can name several things from the OG run that I think were worse than somebody being sneakily told that they are evicted, saying goodbye like everyone else, not getting a highlights package like everyone else and still standing in front of a crowd like everyone else. The only thing he's missing out is seeing the crowd three minutes after leaving the house.
 
It was pretty brutal. But Vinnie comes across as someone who would be internally pleased to have been evicted this way because more people are talking about it.
 
Has anyone wondered why they haven't been showing the number or percentage of votes to save for the nominees on eviction night? Unless I've missed something, they just announce the evictee and don't reveal how many votes to save all the nominees received. Seems a bit suss to me, I mean are they just pulling a name out of a hat...just saying
 
I'm rewatching BBUK 2005 alongside current BBAU. By comparison... Vinnie's eviction was a walk in the park.

In week 6 of BBUK 2005...
  1. Housemates are given a letter that says "This week Big Brother will lie to you twice. You guys are amazing"
  2. Everyone gets super paranoid
  3. BB announces that "nominations this week are optional" (this is the first lie)
  4. A bunch of housemates decide not to nominate, immediately making themselves nominated for breaking the rules
  5. BB announces that the housemates who are not actually nominated are the nominated ones (this is the second lie)
  6. On eviction night, Davina (the host) nonchalantly addresses the real nominated housemates and tells them they are up for eviction, causing them to have a melt down.
  7. HMs are ordered around the dining table
  8. HMs must vote who gets evicted from the 2 who received the most public votes
  9. In a completely brutal 2 minutes, every single housemate (except one) votes to kick out Vanessa.
  10. Vanessa, bawling her eyes out is basically pushed out the front door to the crowd who relentlessly boo her.

Dang, now that is brutal.
I need to go and watch this series. I didn't start watching BBUK until 2006.
 
It's great for Vinnies career to go out this way, so memorable.
His interview with Mel was also the most professional and charismatic.
Cant wait to see where he goes on tv from here.
 
Vinnie's eviction was indeed brutal ... but, that said, I honestly believe it was one of the best moments in BBAU ever, over all seasons. It's certainly something that viewers and fans of BBAU will remember and I think it will be one of those things brought up in fan discussions and in future forum threads again and again for a long time.

I think that was quite slackā€¦ sad he didnā€™t get his eviction experience

The housemates aren't celebrities who are famous for their talent and skills. They're just run-of-the-mill average members of the public. Eviction experience? They're players in a social experiment not wannabe stars waiting for their big moment to launch a career in the public eye. Oh wait.....šŸ™„šŸ˜‰

Graphics would just be constructed to match their rigged choice of evicted.
