THANK YOU! I will admit I was confused by this format until someone explained it.

Friendship starts to fray in the house

Tim’s betrayal leaves best mate Drew reeling

Tonight on Big Brother , the house got a glittery makeover for this week’s shopping task, as Big Brother had the housemates tearing up the dance floor during a slumber party from hell.

After losing their leader Joel, the newbies kick-started “Operation Vengeance” against royalty Estelle. Meanwhile, Tim hatched a crafty plan to target love birds Drew and Sam, after Aleisha told him about Drew’s scandalous secret deal with Joel.

During the house task, housemates were on a roll to avoid nominations as Taras’ steady hand secured his first challenge win.

With house nominations looming, Tim once again used his influence to ensure Sam, Johnson and Estelle were nominated for evictions. But Tim’s moved pushed his friendship with best mate Drew to breaking point.

“I feel betrayed by Tim. I know that he had to make moves like this, but he could have been upfront with me,” Drew said.

Tomorrow night: Big Brother ’s twisted Party Week comes to a sweet end but the sugar high has a nasty crash. When a shocking betrayal is exposed, the biggest scandal to hit the house explodes in an epic cage fight.

It’s as if they couldn’t decide which format to go with, so went with all of them.

Estelle wasn’t in the cage in the promo which indicates she is evicted.

I don’t think we can really tell at the moment. IMO. The images of the challenge aren’t that clear and we don’t really know how it works.

They’re making it up as they go along. The rules are unfair too.

Three challenges a week. Two winners get to put 3 people up for nominations alone but the 3rd winner doesn’t as they do group nominations. It’s absolutely unfair to the 3rd winner.

  • The winner of the Monday challenge gets to solely decide who is nominated for the Eviction in that episode.
  • The winner of the Tuesday challenge gets immunity from being nominated in the House Nominations in that episode (nobody can vote for them).
  • The winner of the Wednesday challenge is removed from being nominated, leaving the other two to contest the Eviction.

I would say that the winner of the Monday challenge has the most power, as they can completely pick who is up for Eviction.

I think tonights episode just officially jumped the shark. What was that?

I agree. I hate it when contestants on any reality show are given another chance for no reason (at the very least without a challenge or twist). This was just “the eviction has been cancelled,” wtf?

Secrets and lies exposed

The house’s biggest scandal explodes in epic cage fight

Tonight on Big Brother , tensions between Tim and Drew reached an all-time high after Tim nominated his former best friend’s lover, Sam, for eviction.

During the Panic Room task, Big Brother threw a sweet surprise party, but the sugar rush had a sickly twist. After Drew and Johnson failed the task, all fourteen housemates were confined to Big Brother’s party cage for 24-hours.

A chat with Tim left Sam confused about who she could trust in the house. But later, when lies and secrets were exposed, the pair raged in the cage.

At the second chance challenge, Johnson did his family proud and secured safety from eviction.

With Estelle and Sam on the chopping block, Drew begged his mates Tim and Tully to save his girlfriend, but the power couple got a nasty shock at the eviction ceremony when Estelle secured a landslide victory.

Party Week ended with one last surprise from Big Brother: a cancelled eviction and a reunited Sam and Drew.

Next week on Big Brother : the house gets turned upside down as two of the toughest, most cunning intruders in Big Brother history prepare to blow the game away.

Not even hiding producer manipulation behind a “twist” anymore - just outright fixing it in plain sight after the results are in. An absolute joke.

I don’t get how they think people won’t feel this way? The manipulation sticks out like dogs balls.

Apparently the housemates need to keep track of votes. Not sure why when Big Brother just overrides their decision anyway.

“Actor” and “Podcaster” is everything that is wrong with reality TV casting. And they’re not even pretending the actor wasn’t recruited to appear.

I was going to say are they genuine HMs or just put in there to stir shit and leave? Publicly or not.

What looked to be the best episode of the season quickly turned into a dud thanks to the ridiculous twist at the end.

Over production has destroyed the show. Producers obviously anticipated Sam would be an audience favourite when filming occurred so have given her a life line. They were wrong. Showmances aren’t a draw card.

BB needs to either return to a live format with audiences involved in eliminations or can it.

Finally caught up with week one today - I still have weeks 2 (Battle Week) and 3 (Party Week) to catch up next weekend.

It was nice to see housemate nomination back, but I agree there was too many twists after that.

While there were claims that the house was split right down the middle with OGs vs newbies, the voting breakdown for Drew v Mel showed that not every OGs voted to evict Mel (Dave voted to evict Drew) and not all newbies voted to evict Drew (Gabbie, Sam and Lulu chose to evict Mel).

The sewer room that Trevor, Layla and Drew stayed in when they first arrived, did it have a genuine drain going through the middle?

Haven’t watched it yet 10 episodes to watch.

Had a look on the Apple TV the other day and there are 6 ad break marks on it .

Home and Away only has 2 ad break marks.

Even if they are short ad breaks it’s a lot of advertising shoved in there.
