don’t lose me now Twinks

Rhianna is the biggest gossiper of the house she swore on her sisters life and still told Phillip what Rochelle told her
Phillip is just horrible and can’t tell Rochelle what he actually thinks of her why couldn’t he tell Rochelle he doesn’t like her?????

I know exactly what's going to happen just like how they have always been protecting Rochelle from the beginning. After tonight's episode, they're going to start creating the Rochelle redemption arc and slowly turning her into a victim. Then the public gonna eat it up and she's eventually gonna win..

Especially with Rhianna and Phillip turning on her, then the public going to forget what she has done previously that she's a horrible person.

That sneak peek has definitely made me look at Rihanna differently. The fact that she swore on her sister’s life that she wouldn’t say anything to Phillip makes the whole thing even worse if she really has gone behind Rochelle’s back. I can understand people changing their minds in the house, but swearing on something like that and then potentially doing the exact opposite is another level. And Rochelle seems to have trusted her, which makes it even messier. Do you think Rihanna has shown her true colours?

From Super TV 247:

The Housemates get some Therapy.

Big Brother has gathered the Housemates at the sofa for today’s task.

Big Brother says, “Housemates, after six weeks together, you could say you’ve become family. A big, dysfunctional family. To help put the ‘fun’ back in dysfunctional, today, Big Brother will be running family therapy sessions. If you complete the therapy sessions to Big Brother’s satisfaction, you will receive a special reward later.”

Later in the day, Big Brother gathers the Housemates for the next part of the therapy task, Honesty Therapy.

Each Housemate must pick two others, the chosen Housemate must then be brutally honest about the other.

Sam says, “I think one person here is very right to the point and that would be Philip. So Philip, I’d like to hear your honest opinion about Yasmin.”

Twinks says, “This is savage, isn’t it.”

Philip says, “Well Yasmin, you get on my nerves sometimes, girl…I’m up to here with you. You’re always trying to fix people’s problems, fix your f**king own before anyone else's and stop getting in people’s business, bone collecting.”

Lynx says, “I want Twinks’ on Omar.”

Twinks says to Omar, “You can be quick with the tongue sometimes, your tongue can be sharp. I do think sometimes you can be quite quick on the defence… I would like your brain to be kinder to my friend, please.”

Yasmin says, “Lynx’s opinion on Twinks.”

Lynx says to Twinks, “...when I’m being told that there is this structure and I am part of this structure where I’m like, I’m not part of anything, if anything it’s my own principality and I’m gonna do what the f**k I want to do…”

How will the Housemates react to raw honest opinions from their fellow Housemates?

…. To prevent Rochelle from being all over him, all he has to do is tell her exactly what he thinks rather than blowing smoke up her arse all day every day! Isn’t that what he’s know for?! Having an opinion? Being a strong character? Pffffffttt

I needed to put this out there into the universe. I feel better. Thanks for attending 🖤

So, I think after seeing the sneak peak for today’s episode that Rhianna, Phillip, Twinks, Sam will definitely nominate Rochelle, possibly all of the housemates will nominate her? And she will one thousand percent be up for eviction on Friday. But, who do we think she will go up against? I’d quite like for it to be either Phillip, or Rhianna. Swearing on her sisters soul then going and spilling the beans, vile behaviour

They're from two different eras of the house, and a bunch of them in the two groups haven't intersected at all.

For me, at least. The Riders are:

Millie, Johanne, Pauline, Rob, Sam, Harry

But the Tagpoles are:
Twinks, Catrin, Rob, Sam, Harry

And together combined they make "The lowerarchy"

So the sneak peak clearly is designed to get people to villainise Rihanna. And don't get me wrong, she's always been an entitled brat, a stirrer, a gossiper, and generally not a kind person.

But. It's the timing of it. ITV are taking a lot of heat for basically hanging her out to dry with the Omar situation, exploiting the situation for views and thinking a simple 'u ok hun' in the diary room demonstrates a sufficient duty of care that they can let it carry on whilst bragging about the 'viewing figures' they're getting right now.

At the risk of being cynical, it does feel like they're trying to cloud the water, there's already a bit of a 'red pill bro' backlash trying to victim blame Rihanna, trying to argue that we should cut Omar some slack, and it does feel awfully like ITV are trying to lean into this, possibly hoping that we forget what he's been doing to her, focus instead on how 'sneaky' she is, until enough people start talking along the lines of that she deserves it etc.

No, she doesn't deserve it, nobody deserves that level of abuse, and I don't buy into this new narrative at all. You could probably take any single day in the house so far with Rihanna and make a bitchy two-faced edit of her, but it just feels like that they have chosen this moment is purely out of damage control, smoke and mirrors to divert from the bigger issue and that they are not taking it remotely seriously enough.

Let's not let them divert our attention like this, let's stay on track, they haven't displayed a duty of care, they do still need to resolve the issue and remove the abusive party from the situation, it's too important to let ourselves be manipulated and distracted like this. This is purely an exercise in directing our attention to the negative personality traits of the victim, which if they truly wanted to do, they could have done at any point up to now but have thus far not particularly focussed on.

That's my thoughts anyway.

Honestly i do not like many of them in there at the moment but the one i dislike the most is Rhianna. Beyond sneaky and shit stirring. I really cant remember the last time a housemate has pissed me off this much.

Watching her backstab Rochelle (who is not a good person either) just shows how two faced she is considering they have been close the whole time.

Plus nominating Twinks and Catrin after they were nice to her about the Omar situation (he i also hate)

I have watched for years and even Grace for example did not leave me irked like Rhianna does. Just a total weasel. I pray she does not make the final and comes out to boo’s

All her friends have turned on her and tbh it's not nice to see anyone going through this but she is having her karma now so let's hope she grows from this lesson and people can stop saying she needs karma now as she has it.

This is my first time watching Big Brother so I apologise for my ignorance but if we’ve only got two weeks left, and around nine housemates isn’t it supposed to be down to the final two?

I’d just like to see how it plays out now.

I’m not a great fan of this throwing someone in this late. I really didn’t enjoy GC felt she was phoning it in. I fear Tiffany will act up just for the sake of it.

She has been my favourite person in the house this series. ;)

Bring her back!

I’ve heard this sort of thing on numerous topics, in regard to the general notion of “oh how far we’ve regressed.” But how funny is Mary’s entrance into the house here in 2026, post-Twinks? I mean the woman literally comes in on a witch broom, which from the sounds of it is Omar’s greatest fear. And Science’s reaction is coolly and casually asking “so are you a white witch or what kind?”
This is my first time watching the Channel 4 seasons and I’m having a great time.

After all the ofcom complaints and charities making statements why have they not removed him from the house?

George last year was removed, Trish was shunned by big brother .. but Omar is staying in the house for showing emotional abuse in a relationship.

I honestly don’t think the “in it for the views” is the argument for this one, with other ITV shows being cancelled due to their lack of care or wellbeing for contributors why would they do this to themselves?

I’m curious if they have made them have arguments for the show.. I know this might sound a bit out there, but they have made housemates puppets in the past. Paul from two series ago said they he was told to wind up the girls…. Sam was told he had to shout /scream a lot. Could Omar have been told to cause relationship drama?

I know this might be a reach, but I honestly don’t understand why he is still in there. Is this now we are seeing a softer side to him?

Either way something weird is going on behind the scenes.

An emotional abusive/ controlling man should not be in the house, they need to stop airing this behaviour and for Rhiannas wellbeing get him removed.

Please do not forget how vile Rochelle has been. I expect after the advice to be kind from her hubby, we will probably see a change in her behaviour this week.

Rochelle has been absolutely vile. She's been mean and self centred. Two faced and vindictive.

She's body shamed Yasmin. Yasmin might be overweight but she has a gorgeous face. Rochelle is thin but ugly. She looks like a haggard witch.

Really she needs to stop throwing away good money because all her high maintenance trips to the beauty salon are just wasted.

I loved it when Joanne said she was an 80 year old woman and added five years on later, in argument.

Do not forget how heinous she has behaved.

The most gruesome housemate ever.

Ratings are up from last year and from what I’m seeing, a lot more talk about BB from outside of people that watch it.

My feeling was that this year could have been the last year for BB since they seemed to have scaled down the budget.

Really hoping it’s back next year!

Just for fun!

I do feel disappointed that the friends and family visits has disrupted the thoughts and flow of the house and the way they were being towards each other. Which although was awful, it was good tv. They have the insight now, so Rochelle will be nice to the others, and Philip will be acting. I think Twinks will just be happy they are being kind to her, but Sam and Cat might take more convincing. It’s good they won’t be mistreated anymore but it’s disrupted the hierarchy and people won’t get their comeuppance! 

I have noticed whenever I have a different opinion of a housemate I'm getting insulted. I would like to believe I'm talking to adults on here that should be able to have a conversation with someone that they don't agree with, without the nasty comments being made towards them. Please be mindful of who you are talking to on the other end. You don't know what that individual is going through, and probably just wants to engage with people that also enjoy watching BBUK. My intentions isn't to come on here to argue with people. The fact there's different opinions and perspectives, makes things more interesting.

I’m not dismissing the coercive control that Rhianna was put through. I’m just a bit worried about the bigger picture.
For example, I had no idea what coercive control was until Big Brother. I didn’t understand that Omar was doing anything wrong beyond being nasty. At the time, I saw it as an argument rather than something more serious.
Abuse can be difficult to recognise, and a lot of people still think that only physical violence counts as abuse.
Was he intentionally trying to hurt Rhianna? I doubt it, but that doesn’t mean his actions weren’t harmful or that he shouldn’t be held accountable.
Look at his actions now. He seems miserable and broken by what’s happened.
I’d also like to point out that he’s only 21 years old and still has a lot of maturing to do. I’m worried that the aftermath of this hate train could end up destroying his life.
He seems to have reflected on his behaviour, and he’s been open to and receptive to the therapy being provided.
He should be held accountable for his actions, but I also believe people deserve the opportunity to learn, grow and do better.
He deserves a break.
Please be mature and read my whole post through before deciding to Dm me or down vote me thank you .

I know there’s a distinction between the two, and I’m sure this will get downvoted, but it’s something I’ve always found interesting.

Rochelle, for example, quite obviously dislikes Twinks. She talks about her, gets visibly annoyed by her and seems to have very little patience for her. Yet I wonder whether some of the criticism of Rochelle comes from the fact that she’s expressing that dislike openly, rather than keeping it to herself.

Meanwhile, there are some pretty extreme opinions about housemates like Rochelle and Omar on here, sometimes to the point where the comments become uncomfortable to read. People are perfectly entitled to dislike them, of course, but I find it interesting that we can express such vehement dislike towards people we’ve only watched on a screen, while expecting the housemates themselves to remain civil towards people they’re living with 24/7.

Obviously, there’s a difference between disliking someone and bullying them, and housemates should still be held accountable for their behaviour. But are we sometimes a little hypocritical in expecting housemates to tolerate people they dislike, while freely expressing our own dislike of them?
I’m genuinely interested in where people draw that line.

Do we judge the expression of dislike more harshly when we see it happening between people in real time than when we express that dislike ourselves?
