Charlie loses nomination rights
King Siavash given 'special opportunity'
charlie-loses-nomination-rights

Charlie has lost his right to nominate this week thanks to a twist in this week’s Tudors shopping task.

Yesterday afternoon, Siavash automatically took the role of King Henry VIII for the task by being the first housemate to go to the Diary Room to collect a laminate from Big Brother.

As King Henry, Siavash was later given a special opportunity - to remove one housemate’s nomination rights for this week.

He chose Charlie, who, after squirming and hesitating during last week’s nominations, was pleased by the decision.

Earlier, Siavash had chosen Angel, Dogface, Halfwit, Karly, Rodrigo and Sree to be his wives. Kris and Charlie became courtiers, while Noirin and Lisa became cooks, leaving Marcus in the role of ‘village idiot’.

Stick with bbspy!

Shocker! bbspy actually post a news article instead of views article :) !

Lol. Only joking. Thanks guys.

I’m glad Charlie’s not nominating. Don’t like him.

I actually broke the news on another thread, see I’m always ahead of the game.

“Inside Big Brother” had this ages ago :P

Sal says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:05 pm

Ivan, I also noticed many other websites had this story up before bbspy also.

Tellymix, IBB, C4 Site, TiBB, DS all had it hours before bbspy.

What’s going on with bbspy this year? Where are all your other features you usually have like house plan, music, nominations, housemates pages?

Is there a new owner to this website this year? I would like to know please. :)

The Sun broke the news just after mid-day

Ivan says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:28 pm

Yes, Big Brother itself is not the only thing thats gone down this year..in popularity, shall we say.

Matt, I don’t mean to be rude but you said you were going to make the floorplan ages ago. I’ve asked a lot of times since and there’s been no response.

I also feel that the latest news from the house has not been posted as quickly or frequently as previous years. I suggest that you, and especially Brekkie focus less on your “NO LIVE FEED” “BRING LIVE FEE BACK” “BIG BROTHER NEEDS A REVAMP” “BIG BROTHER IS DEAD” blogd, and focus more on bringing us the latesr news faster as I feel it would be more appreciated.

:D

Hi guys,

Just a reminder that the team who work here; Matt and Brekkie are only human aswell.

They do have lives, commitments and responsibilities to deal with like me and you, therefore you have to expect that they are not sat at the computer 24/7.

Also, the only news from the house is the news we are allowed to see. Lack of live feed make sites like this and mine not able to post new articles every 5 minutes like possible in ex series.

Please guys, remember that this site is a non-profit, fansite ran by people with lives to live.

End.

Sal says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:40 pm

No, I completely understand Alec that the staff have lives.

But last year and the year before, bbspy was brilliant. They had all sorts of features and updated quikcly.

All of a sudden, this year it’s gone slow. They said “More Content To Come” at the top, but nothing has come at all.

Why don’t they get more reporters? That’s what I can’t understand?

I can sympathise that a fansite is hard to run, but this site was still top quality in previous years. But why is it so slow this year?

The owner isn’t answering our questions when we ask. (Surely it’s not the same owner as last year?)

Sal says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:43 pm

Don’t take it to heart by the way.

I still love this website so will come everyday.

Ivan, I think you went a bit too far and should apologise.

I’m not criticisng, I just would like to know if bbspy are having problems with the website. They said they had techincal problems before, so that might be the case now.

So I’ll give the guys the benefit of the doubt. Good work chaps! :)

lanky says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:45 pm

Alec, spot on.

And don’t forget this site has a different staff set-up to others: it’s run by three people, one of whom exclusively does the USA spin-off. Others may have more staff, so therefore they’ll have more output, and in the case of DS and the C4 site, they’re paid.

Plus, you never know: Matt could be on holiday with limited access to the internet, or he could have real life commitments preventing him from putting as much time in this year as he did last year.

Ivan says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:45 pm

^^^ What she said..:P

Sal says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:48 pm

Yeah, lanky I think you make fair points.

I forgot that the staff here work for free! Only once Alec pointed it out, I realised that my criticism before hand was not fair.

For a non profit site, it’s a great job.

But I was just curious if the house plan was coming back because i really liked that feature :)

Matt says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:53 pm

Addressing points:

1) I’ve currently got a real life situation which is taking up much of my time. It’s just as annoying for me as it is for you; I’ve been working on this site for three years now and I don’t want to see it fail.

2) The floorplan will be returning, but it’s taking longer this year thanks to the lack of house tour on launch night, which is normally what our floorplans are based on.

Sal says: June 23, 2009 @ 7:56 pm

Thank you Matt. Best of luck with everything.

I really like your floorplans, that’s what I was hoping for the most. So I’m glad it’s coming back!!! :)

Matt says: June 23, 2009 @ 8:05 pm

Glad you like them Sal, it’s the area of the site I take the most care doing.

Ivan says: June 23, 2009 @ 8:16 pm

No problem Matt! I do appreciate that you have other things going on in your life. The floorplan is my favourite too!:P
