Ninth Round Nominees Announced

Last week there were no nominations because the Hostel-dwellers swapped places with four of the housemates from the main house, putting the latter group of people 'up' in the process. Yesterday, however, was a normal round of noms and as a result the nominees this week are:

Amy, Jonty, Kara-Louise and The Twins (as one i.e. 'Samanda').

We say that yesterday was a normal round, but that's not entirely accurate as the Twins nominated as though they were one person; a joint decision. That privilege meant that they would automatically face eviction this week, which was Big Brother's way of ensuring that they have the experience.

More to the point, it was the all-scheming entity's way of making sure that the public have an opportunity to get rid of them; otherwise, they would probably have sailed through to the Finale without ever being nominated or facing eviction.

That sounds a bit harsh on the part of Big Brother, until you remember that the sisters vowed to both leave if one gets evicted by the public (i.e. the possible outcome of the latest twist is the same and is therefore pointless), and when you consider that they are very, very unlikely to go.

Actually, that's a massive understatement, and if the Twins get evicted this Friday we'll give everyone reading this article £1000*. Of course, if fans did suddenly go bonkers and that actually happened, we'd immediately go bankrupt and you'd be stuffed for the payout. Still, the thought was there!

So, that leaves the original Halfway Housemates in contention to go, and against all the odds Jonty is safe. That statement is a bit ironic actually as the balding eccentric is the 4th Favourite to win at this stage, having been knocked off 3rd place when the Twins were counted as one i.e. he's still surprisingly high-up in the running to win.

Thinking about Kara, she's frankly a bit boring and we can't think of much to say about her, apart from that she can come across as quite miserable. Therefore, it's tempting to think that she might go this week, however, let's not forget that Amy is also up this week.

The glamour model set-off on the wrong foot when she callously wrote-off her former Halfway Housemates and voted them back into the Hostel to face possible eviction last week. Also, her failed attempts at wooing Liam have grated on fans, not least because she appears to have done that as part of a gameplan. Don't forget, she watched the show before she came-in and knows that he's i. rich and ii. popular.

So, when all's said and done, it very much looks like Amy will be sent home on Friday night, in-part because closest contender Kara probably won't provoke many detractors into picking-up the phone and voting. In other words, she may be disliked, but she's not as hated as Amy.

Who stays, who goes? YOU decide!
