Big Brother fans slam nominations twist and accuse housemates of rule breaking

Big Brother has revealed the results of the latest round of nominations and fans are not happy. This week housemates made their nominations in Big Brother’s Time Zone as part of this week’s House of Time task.

Housemates had to enter the Time Zone after drawing numbers, with Philip getting to go first. After he chose Catrin, Harry, Sam and Twinks as the four he wanted to nominate, the remaining Housemates were given the opportunity to swap up to two of the names on the podiums.

Rhianna was the last Housemate to enter, leaving Catrin, Harry, Sam and Twinks to face the public vote.

On X fans were outraged at the result, believing that if there had been traditional nominations some less popular housemates would have been facing eviction.

One fan wrote: "They literally tried to twist nominations to make exactly the opposite of this happen and they’ve ended up with the worst possible scenario. Ffs."

While another added: "This is the shittest nominations twist I’ve ever seen. They’ve just given the power to the same people that already had it," and a third wrote: "This is the worst nominations twist ever!!! It was always going to end badly. This twist has ruined the series."

Following the announcement of the housemates up for eviction, Rochelle raised eyebrows by telling Phillip: "Can you imagine if it doesn't go to plan and [Twinks] survived. F**k me."

On X, fans accused Rochelle of breaking the rules by discussing nominations and potentially having concocted a plan to ensure Twinks faced eviction.

"The way Rochelle said ‘we stuck the plan and it still might not even work if she doesn’t go’ 🤔 so they’ve clearly discussed nominations," one fan wrote.

"Surely that’s a rule break with Rochelle saying she hopes it all goes to their plan and Twinks will be gone on Friday?" another fan wrote.

A third added: "Rochelle's literally just said 'can you imagine if it doesn't go to plan'...so they must have been talking about who's nominating who in order to plan it..."

Another viewer wrote: "'If it doesn’t go to plan,' Rochelle has just openly admitted to them having a plan to get them out ??? That’s is literally against the rules but nothing will be done of course."

Big Brother continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
