Wait, this Big Brother final week twist is getting dragged and is going to ruin the entire series
People are FUMING – this is a mess
This year’s season of Big Brother has been well and truly mid, but I would take mid over what the show has planned for its big final week twist – which has been announced and has received overwhelming backlash. The final week twist of Big Brother 2024 is being deemed a potential series ruiner as the show plans to shake things up with some evictions that, if I’m honest, feel completely unfair. Here’s the Big Brother final week twist explained, and all the responses from fans who are suitably fuming about what this could mean.
The twist explained
🚨 AN EVICTION WITH £10K UP FOR GRABS 🚨
As exclusively revealed in Big Brother: Late & Live, today four Housemates entered Big Brother’s vault, but only three made it out…
One Housemate drew a lucky pound sign card, gaining the power to pick three others to join them in the…

The twist is as follows. One housemate gets to draw a lucky card with a pound sign on it – we now know this housemate to be Segun. Segun gets to take three housemates with him into the vault, and he gets two £5,000 bundles to place on the housemates he thinks he’s safe in the currently active vote to win. He can put a full £10K on one housemate, or split it between two. If he predicts right, he gets to keep the money. Whoever the housemate is out of the three Segun chooses will be evicted through the backdoor.
Why the backlash?

And what’s the issue with this? The problem here is that Segun – who could have been last in the public vote, and yet through sheer luck now has this opportunity – could be the cause of an eviction of someone who would have been a finalist. For example, if Segun was currently ninth in the voting to win, he would not only escape that but could pick the top three as it stands to go into the vault – resulting in someone who could have placed third going home ninth out of the backdoor.
Big Brother super fans are unhappy with this decision, and the original announcement from Big Brother has many fans raging about the final week twist in the replies.
so if the top 3 housemates are taken into the vault, whoever is 3rd in the vote to WIN is going to get evicted over those in 4th-9th place? That’s absolutely not it

Big Brother was promised a back to basics approach in the ITV era, but the season – especially this year – has been swamped with tasks.
This is the worst idea ever

I think this is just the final straw on an annoying few weeks of frustrating choices. Big Brother is at its best when we are just watching normal people exist and the drama that creates – not endless tasks and twists. In last night’s episode, we saw Big Brother breach the privacy of a diary room chat with Sarah which let Nathan listen in. No other housemates got this benefit. Not only does this feel unfair, but it is wrong – in my opinion – to take away the housemate’s right to privacy in the diary room and to have one location of confidence.
It’s all a mess. We’ll see how it all goes down in tonight’s episode.
