I can't cope with these evictions.

I don't understand how Bianca received more votes than Speidi and Kim, I’m baffled.
Maybe it was all the crying and she got a sympathy vote? but surely people are not that gullible, Bianca has been a waste of a good HM all series.

It was sad to see Jessica go, although not surprising and I couldn’t concentrate on her exit interview because I was trying to accept that Kim or Speidi would be out next.

I’m beyond disappointed that Speidi went. I enjoyed watching them and I loved Spencer’s dry humour and stirring. They gave a good interview and it was interesting hearing about the other HM’s from their perception even if I didn’t agree with them. I’ll miss Speidi and they so deserved to have been in the final.


At least Kim is still in there :D

I'd love Kim to win the series she deserves it, but what do I know?





Spoiler re-nominations and task...


Five housemates face eviction from Celebrity Big brother 2017 after face to face nominations.

And Calum Best is one of the unlucky ones who is up for the axe. :hats:

A new twist called the 'Weekend Of Final Judgement' started last night and will end with one celeb getting the boot on Sunday via the back door, with the eviction shown in Monday night's show.

Following Friday's double eviction, housemates nominated face to face last night and us viewers will get to pass judgement with one of those nominated being given the boot in a surprise eviction.

James Cosmo was the only housemate who could relax thanks to his eternal immunity, securing his spot in the final week.

However for five other celebs, their fate is in the public's hand.

One of those up for eviction is Calum Best - but who will be joining him?

The full nominations results will be revealed in tonight's show on Channel 5 at 10PM, where lines will also open to vote for your favourite.

Meanwhile, over the next 24 hours the house will see some special guests enter with Vanessa Feltz hosting a special task.

The 'familiar faces' will pass judgement over the remaining celebs who will be "tested like they've never been before."

After Speidi and Jessica's evictions last night, those left in the house right now are Kim, Jedward, Bianca, Calum, Jamie, Coleen, James C and Nicola.

Celebrity Big Brother continues nightly on Channel 5 with the face to face nominations results revealed tonight at 10PM on Channel 5.

I mean, Bianca really didn't do anything. How pathetic was it to watch her apologizing? No backbone at all.

Do you mean Nicola??

I still can't get my head around who would be voting for Bianca, what are they seeing that's entertaining about her?

The mind boggles. Surely people can't really be that enthralled with her lame romance with Jamie. That's about all she's really done in there.

Plus he sees a nasty side to Jedward and not one from Nicola.

Well Spencer has a pretty skewed perspective on a lot of things. Thinking that James C is some kind of BB mastermind for example. Like I said before though, Jedward are no angels. Very sarcastic, and just a couple of repressed bitchy little queens if you ask me. How much actual calculation or malice is in it I'm not sure. Probably fairly little.

Me too. Of them that are left she is definitely the most deserving winner.

Spoiler re-nominations and task...

'Familiar faces' sounds like it will be some ex-housemates from this series coming to do some damage and then leave. Hopefully Austin and James will show up. Hopefully Stacy is already on a plane back to the US.

That was a busy show last night, the Saturday episodes have been good this series.

Speidis fake crying when reading their letter from home had me laughing and later as Speidi were evicted Kim was heard to say that she’d just wanted to go home, Nicola couldn’t miss the opportunity to say “I wish you would”…even now Nicola still won't drop her animosity.

The nominations were going the HM’s way until Kim and Jedward nominated and then the other HM’s laughed at them, so rude! Although Calum didn’t look happy with his nomination from Jedward.
I can see that Jedward must be a nightmare to live with and would drive me completely mad, I do appreciate them though for annoying the HM’s and exposing them for who they are.

John finally snapped and I was almost cheering him on when he wouldn’t back down to Calum, he’d had enough and good for him defending himself against all of them. Calum is a good man and it must be true because he told us. Calum was telling Jedward to grow up and a few minutes later he started swearing, stropped out of the room and said he was no longer their buddy (was he ever?) .... priceless!

Jedward are defensive and do have an inflated idea of their fame and when they were in the DR they mentioned that they’re not bigheaded because they haven’t changed their sheets in six months … how does that equate to not being big headed? :lol:

At the end of the show as Calum, Nicola, Bianca and Jamie were sat together it reminded me of how I hate it when a smug clique forms on BB.

I haven't seen last night's yet, but from the Jedward clip and @Long Lashes thoughts, I'm super excited to get it watched.

I've been reading a lot of tweets about how everyone is happy that Jedward took on Calum, I'm loving this because the dislike for Calum is growing every day.

Calum is a good man and it must be true because he told us.
Yeah, he's forever telling the cameras he's a good guy and very respectful of woman, there's a reason why he keeps having to repeat this, but we're not buying any of it.

Although Calum didn’t look happy with his nomination from Jedward.

No he wasn't happy at all. Which was great to see. Well he was anxious to know how the public feel about him so I guess now he'll find out!

I can see that Jedward must be a nightmare to live with and would drive me completely mad, I do appreciate them though for annoying the HM’s and exposing them for who they are.

The thing with Jedward is they are so unaware. Which is why everything that is said about them comes as such a shock. They live in a little bubble where they consistently validate each others behavior. So it feels like in one way they don't really learn as they always have the other one there to tell them their right. So I think they are more naive than malicious.

Calum was telling Jedward to grow up and a few minutes later he started swearing, stropped out of the room and said he was no longer their buddy (was he ever?) .... priceless!

I know! Ridiculous.

Wow! Tonight's show really brought some long awaited home truths.

As far as ex-housemates returning, this has to be one of the best and they picked 4 great housemates to take on that role.

I loved, loved, Nicola getting told how she's coming across and pretty much everyone's comments were hitting the nail on its head. I don't think Jedward have isolated themselves, I think the others just couldn't handle their immaturity which then led to annoyance and anger. I don't think Jedward are malice and what we're seeing is two guys now trying to defend themselves by retaliating in a nasty way, the way they've seen Nicola and Jamie be with them.

I totally get how annoying it would be to live with Jedward, but I would still choose these over characters like James Jordan, Helen Wood and many other housemates who have simply been vile over the years.

Interesting how quickly Calum, Nicola, Colleen, Jamie & Bianca started to have fun and that's something these housemates have certainly not been doing. I did think (however) that if it had been Jedward throwing water around the kitchen, they would have been moaning.

It was also fantastic that they played Caulm & Nicola's conversation about the showmance, can it get any better...? Yeah of course it can, Nicola wants out and this time she means it, oh hang on, she's back in the kitchen.

John Mccririck is a vile disgusting human, but he does get me excited whenever I see him on CBB or BOTS. I did feel for Colleen though.

Calum really has taken offence at getting nominated and he lied his way out of what he said about the showmance, I just hope they don't fall for it.

I wish the court had gone on longer, much longer.

Yes, that was brilliant. It's time she heard that from someone else other than Jedward and Kim.

Yes, and Jedward were right on the money when they commented on it. Although, not to be outdone, they did both jump in the pool later on. :D

It was also fantastic that they played Caulm & Nicola's conversation about the showmance, can it get any better...?

Yes, it was fantastic! Calum is finally being knocked off his comfy little perch. Being up for eviction ad now being exposed for bitching behind his mates back.

Yeah of course it can, Nicola wants out and this time she means it, oh hang on, she's back in the kitchen.

lol, my sentiments exactly! She's such a drama queen.

Oh he makes my skin crawl. And he was really brutal with Coleen. Unnecessarily so.

It certainly was and it was also very telling that Kim & Jedward had quite a lot of support from outside the house.


Unnecessarily so.

You're right it was and I feel for her kids and family/friends watching her go through that.

Though Colleen isn't usually one to just stand and take it and I also think that anyone going into this show must be strong, because it can get very cruel.

Oh, and it did make me laugh when Lisa Zissman said to Kim "I find you fascinating" and Kim said "Don't pile it on luvvie"
She's my winner, dear.

Do you mean Nicola??

Yes, as I posted it, I realized my mistake and I couldn't edit. And honestly, I do get the two awful white bleach blondes with long hair mixed up now and then. Sometimes you have to look hard past that hair to see who is who.

Why does Spiedi keep saying James will win, he's a "master," or whatever. He certainly wouldn't if you didn't know him, he and Colleen are like bumps on a log, I sometimes forget they are even there. Of course that did not stop Ricky from last year sailing into the Top 5. But people like Colleen, why do they even go in the house, they are obviously not there to try to have any fun.

I do miss Spiedi. Spencer is really cute. He should have tried showing more "skin" to get votes than the fighting. It might have worked better.

Oh my God, that water-fight with the most boring people in the house. Priceless. "Hey, look how fun we are!" I agree with the comment that if Jedward had done it, they would have their noses in the air complaining about it.

They just HAD to bring Austin back, right. Seeing him again just made me thank God for the miracle of him getting booted early. And there he was at the end, yelling and name-calling. That comment from Jedward was funny and so right, that all he's doing is trying to get known. I thought their "gymnastics" routine was really funny, I certainly would have been right there with them acting it out.

OMG, Calum being called out. Finally. Even his diary rooms are fake and carefully spoken to manipulate the public. He's smart, though, he tried some "damage control" and I'm sure the public bought it. And him always nominating Jedward is such a joke, thank goodness they are calling him out on it, it's always "They are good boys but are disturbing people in the house," as if it's not about him at all.

That clique has already decided Kim and Jedward are their "forever nominees." And Kim is right, that "the way she came in the house" when they nominate is so lame- and just boring. They don't want to risk offending anyone else. I've watched most of the "Celebrity Big Brother" but none of the main UK show. Can someone suggest the best seasons? I am 10 episodes in to the very last season and I realized I do like that one too and want t see more, so what's the ones with the most drama? Thanks

The last couple of episodes were great. I was sad to see Jennifer go, and was shocked to see Spiedi go next. I really thought Bianca would go, more like I wished she did. I'm so tired of seeing Jamie and Bianca kissing, and making out. I personally don't think Jamie really cares for her it is a game for him but I could be wrong.

The court parts were great. I hate how Nicola and Calum say that JedWard never lets people speak, and they can't take criticism. I agree JedWard gets offended easy but so does Jamie, Calum, and Nicola to name a few.

The face to face nominations was great. I knew they would mostly vote JedWard and Kim. I loved Calum's facial expression when Jedward voted for him. Calum votes for them all the time why is he surprised they would vote for him.

I have to say the JedWard fight with Nicola was one of my favourite scenes in this series. I know JedWard can be annoying but Nicola is constantly on their case. I agree with most the stuff JedWard said, Nicola is s drama Queen. I was a little shocked JedWard really was aggressive but it was fun to watch. The only reason Calum was so upset was because he was nominated.

The water fight was boring but remember in the beginning the houseguests were so upset that Spencer was hiding water. They got upset with JedWard for making a mess but they waste water, and made a mess but I guess when the clique does it that's ok.

I wonder who will go out next, I hope Jamie.

I can only agree with you all that it was a fantastic episode!

I love Jedwards name for Nicola “the Blair Witch of the house spreading darkness" :lol:

The courtroom task was sublime and the look on Nicolas face when she heard how shes being perceived..lol! it was one of the best BB moments for me this series. Usually if a HM who has been nasty gets their comeuppance (and they often don't) I can’t help feeling a bit sorry for them, but no, nothing, not a jot of sympathy from me for Nicola.

I adore BB for showing the clip of Calum discussing the showmance. Calum tried to say what he’d said wasn’t nasty and Nicola backed him up saying that clip made what he said look far worse. How could it? it was a recording of what he said :rolleyes:

I do agree with Coleen that John McCririck is a pr**k although I thought he also looked unwell.

James C irritated me by telling Jedward to make an effort with Nicola. This could’ve been his moment to do something memorable by gathering the other HM’s together to say ease off Jedward for a while.

The HM's suddenly making some fun after all these weeks (and just after the court) by having a water fight...made me cringe.





Can someone suggest the best seasons? I am 10 episodes in to the very last season and I realized I do like that one too and want t see more, so what's the ones with the most drama? Thanks
Personally I enjoyed the earlier series of Big Brother e.g. series 5, 6 and 7 although I suspect these will be outdated to watch now as the show has evolved since then.

The more recent series which I found to be full of drama (and also nastiness) are BB13, BB15 and BB17.

I'm now officially a Jedward fan. I admired how well they stood up for themselves in the court and told The Blair Witch some home truths. It couldn't have been easy when almost the entire house were against them but they held their ground, correctly calling out Nicola for leading the clique's opinion against them. Even when James C tried to tell them off they wouldn't back down, correctly pointing out that James wasn't saying the same things to the clique. Only Kim, bless her, supported James and Edward.

So Nicola screams at the producers in the diary room that she is leaving "100 precent" but surprise, surprise, she's still there. She can dish out the criticisms but as soon as some in directed at her she's threatening to leave. Kim had her number from early on:

Yes, it's boring and because they keep referring to this give me the impression they have nothing else to go on.

I think @Long Lashes picked out the best seasons to try.

I hate how Nicola and Calum say that JedWard never lets people speak, and they can't take criticism.
I adore BB for showing the clip of Calum discussing the showmance.


Nicola & Calum can not handle any kind of critisim, look at how Calum behaved when he thought Colleen had called him a 'one night stand'. Just like Nicola, he can dish out, but can not take whatever is thrown back at him.


The courtroom task was sublime

So many amazing parts to this, now I'm laughing at how Luisa mimicked Kim because of you 'Year of Reality' post. Brilliant, brilliant stuff.
I love Jedwards name for Nicola “the Blair Witch of the house spreading darkness"
I hope this name sticks with Nicola wherever she goes :D



I admired how well they stood up for themselves in the court and told The Blair Witch some home truths.
BB is a brutal show, but it's always very, very pleasing when the isolated groups start to stand up and speak against the nastiness.
