Bosses to send new housemate in?
Kenneth to be replaced
bosses-to-send-new-housemate-in

A new housemate will enter the Big Brother house tonight to replace Kenneth, according to reports.

The Daily Star claims that producers made the decision to send another in late last night after arguing over which of their line-up of standby contestants should become a housemate.

The move has apparently been taken to appease fans who are unhappy that tonight’s eviction was cancelled following Kenneth’s decision to walk.

A Channel 4 spokeswoman said only: “Expect the unexpected.”

Would you be happy if a replacement entered? Let us know below.

I’d be unhappy about this. One person would have left tonight regardless, so why send another in?

Richie says: July 24, 2009 @ 12:41 pm

They have lost control of this years show IMO and making it up as they go along now

Every decision they have made this year has backfired on them and now they are in full blown panic mode to save a rapidly sinking ship

i love it the more the better xxlolxx

Stu says: July 24, 2009 @ 12:58 pm

This will boost ratings tonight

John says: July 24, 2009 @ 1:35 pm

They probably are sending another housemate in to help make up the time in the second show.

They can’t interview Ken for the whole 30 mins!

So for final 15 mins, send in a housemate.

I would have preferred live nominations, though. That was one of the best things this series!

John ever considered why live nominatations has been one of the best things this series? Cause everything else has been pretty rubbish!
It says a lot when u conisder live nominations the highlight of this series of big brother!

ryan.b says: July 24, 2009 @ 2:10 pm

Some how stu i dont think it will boost the ratings that much tbh

Andy says: July 24, 2009 @ 2:47 pm

I hope they send Jesus in. That dude who was reported to be part of the original 16. Wouldnt it be amazing if Jesus won Big Brother. ahahaha

I agree they lost control age ago,this year bb house has been controlled by wannabes,ruling breaking hm. Also bb has had it fav, considering lisa talks noms all the time and yet they do nothing. Wil this be one of the ex’s if so hope its noirins we will then see how shallow she has been,and the love square will turn into a circle lol

They have lost control of the show this year. It has been the worst year by far imo. This year we have seen the most perpared bunch of house mates yet. Its also my opinion that the housemates have literally rules the roost and out smarted BB this year.
Its become a very predictable format and stratedgy from the housemates. If you cant get a boyfrind / girlfriend, make sure you join a group. The good looking group starts the best but looses to the public in the end. The leftovers, minority group comes through in the end.
Lisa has been vile imo and has gotten aware with persistent rule breaking.
The reasons for a lot of the failure is down to the poorest production team in years.

I agree with John the live nom’s was funny!

New housemate = awesome

Brekkie says: July 24, 2009 @ 4:43 pm

I guess really it’s a bit much to expect them to have a “Plan B” when they don’t really seem to have a “Plan A”. They just don’t seem capable of doing anything with live shows other than sending someone in.

I’m guessing then the eviction crowd hasn’t been cancelled, and the only reason they’re putting someone in is to give the crowd someone to boo!

Richie says: July 24, 2009 @ 5:25 pm

If this new arrival flops tonight, I cannot see how they are going to recover

This years show is sinking fast and I can’t see how a new arrival is going to shake things up as we were promised that last week with the newbies and I haven’t seen ANY progress in terms of shaking things up

This stinks of desperation and lack of ideas

Things should not have been allowed to get this bad in a year of supposed celebration that we were not invited to

If there is going to be a final show next year, theres need to be a massive clearout and at least let the show go out with a bang and not a whimper

BBFan says: July 24, 2009 @ 5:33 pm

With this weeks ratings boost they could have managed at least 2.3m tonight without screwing the show up … again. All they had to do was do live nominations and open the phone lines. Nothing too extravagant or as weird as replacing a housemate that doesn’t need replacing.

The producers have seriously lost the plot this year, I thought BB8 was bad!! I know they did the same last year with Stuart, but Dennis was ejected the following week and he wasn’t replaced so it evened itself out.

If BB11 is going ahead then CBB7 desperately needs cancelling and the money into other aspects of the show (the you know what beginning with l ;)) and going ahead with another Hijack, whilst taking viewers ideas into account like they did for BB9. Its not as though the lack of CBB7 will blow a hole in C4’s pocket with a likely official average of about 2m.

Anthony says: July 24, 2009 @ 6:11 pm

Its norins ex thats going in

Its confirmed he will enter the house either tonight or sunday On BBLB show

Actually this will be one to watch just watch marcus`s face LOL

Brekkie says: July 24, 2009 @ 6:20 pm

So cancelling this eviction was a fix then to keep Marcus in.

Richie says: July 24, 2009 @ 6:28 pm

How convenient, Noirin and Siavash kiss and the very next day we find out Noirin’s ex is going in

You couldn’t script it….Oh wait this is BB10 we are talking about after all

andy says: July 24, 2009 @ 6:56 pm

they shud hav punished marcus live 4 goin on the roof agen!

Stu says: July 24, 2009 @ 7:17 pm

I was hoping that they were going to send Robin in

Stu says: July 24, 2009 @ 7:17 pm

Andy, have you never broken a rule in your life?

AndyC says: July 24, 2009 @ 8:17 pm

lol of course i have stu but marcus completely ignored big brother’s warning about going on the roof twice and its about time we saw some proper punishment. although they have already punished him by putting the jail back up in the garden and stuck him in-thats boring they should make more of it in my opinion anyway

AndyC says: July 24, 2009 @ 8:18 pm

btw i apoligise for the different names im andy on 1 computer and andyc on this one- i’ll get it sorted

Frankie says: July 24, 2009 @ 8:26 pm

I praise channel 4 for doing this, sooo excited,

Ben says: July 24, 2009 @ 8:58 pm

I think put that guy in that bea went on a date with !! that would spice things up !!! i recon the wont do anything tonight to be honest people unless they kick out marcus i would if i was them i would kick marcus out for rule breaking and then put a new HM in !!!

Ben says: July 24, 2009 @ 9:01 pm

No new HM tonight guys :(

Anthony says: July 24, 2009 @ 9:44 pm

I have switched off yawn

Ben says: July 24, 2009 @ 9:54 pm

Its is so boring tonight oooh big woop a jail oooohhh so original . tonite is gonna be boring :( tonights show rating F for Failure

Richie says: July 25, 2009 @ 2:20 pm

Have to agree with Brekkie that it was a fix to keep Marcus in…How convenient it all kicked off on the Live Feed early this morning, couldn’t have been more contrived if it tried. How the producers must have been rubbing their hands together with glee

Another blatant attempt to get the ratings up, nothing more nothing less

VERICA says: July 25, 2009 @ 2:35 pm

Yes! Send in Siavash’s girlfriend or Noirin’s ex!!! It will boost the ratings.

Jessica says: July 25, 2009 @ 8:57 pm

i think sending in a new housemate is a great idea just make sure they are entertaining because all the new housemates are boring! marcus has broken the rules, controlling noirin and bein effensive towards other housemates why is he still in! GET HIM OUT!!!

Jessica says: July 25, 2009 @ 9:17 pm

i think if they put a new housemate in they should have a secret task from the start just like when steph told the other housemates her and mario was a couple. that would be interesting!
