First Alice went lastnight, followed by Travis. A shock to many, because some thought Rory and Ben would have gone lastnight.

Was Alice made out to be selfish when it was actually Ben who was selfish?!




They both supplied plenty of entertainment and especially Travis with his crazy antics and that unforgettable voice of his.

I was shocked to see those two get evicted, I would have thought Ben and Rory would go. I honestly believe that Ben was the reason that Alice was evicted due to the care-package that Ben chose through the week.

Ben being head of the house last week, got to choose 2 care-packages out of 3. He read out what was in each package and the choices were , Terri - Travis and Himself. Ben chose Travis first, and then said he'd like to choose his own care-package because he said Terri would get to see her loved ones soon anyway and that she could read her letters from home then. In my opinion Ben made the most selfish decision I've ever seen on BB. He knew Terri was dying to hear from her family and friends but still he chose himself.

Afterwards in the combi, he asked Big Brother if he could do a deal with BB to get Terri's package as well - was it an attack of the guilts and was he worried about how the public would view him? BB told him that if he could convince Alice to give up the treadmill without Terri finding out, then Terri could receive her care package.

It was fine for Ben to try and do this to make amends and to try and get Terri her package as well, but he should have chosen her in the first place. Although a bit too late he may have thought to try a deal, or was it a tactic and was it part of his plan?

When Alice was asked by Rory and Travis to give up her treadmill which she only used 1 hour a day, said she shouldn't have to give anything up because Ben made the choice of care packages, so he should sacrifice something - not her. That's when the bagging out of Alice started. She was accused of being selfish and accused of being too attached to the treadmill and not caring enough about Terri.

They failed to sort this out without Terri finding out and the deal was off about the package for Terri. So in the end, Alice was made out to look selfish for no reason at all, but what about Ben, why wasn't his selfishness pointed out?

They ended up having to do a comedy sketch in front of Terri and if they made her laugh, she would receive her care-package. They succeeded this time and Terri was so happy to read letters from home.

During lastnight's eviction, before voting closed, the hosts were talking about how Alice was being selfish with the treadmill and not thinking of Terri. Kyle accused Alice of being selfish but not once did they mention Ben starting it all by choosing himself over Terri. So who was worse? Was it Ben for carrying out the most selfish act of them all, or was it Alice for not giving up her treadmill? I think Alice was right in that she shouldn't have been accused of being selfish and shouldn't have been asked to sacrifice anything. Big Brother should have told Ben that due to it being Ben's decision to be selfish and choose himself, it should be him that loses something.

What made it worse was that Ben sat in the Diary Room and also accused Alice of being selfish. In my opinion and in the opinion of many (those who can see it), Ben was the one being selfish. Whether it was a tactic of his to get rid of Alice or not, to put it in Ben's terms it was 'a Dog Act!"

Ben should not be in there at the moment as I beleive Alice was evicted purely because she was painted as being selfish and not thinking of Terri. Why wasn't Ben's selfish act pointed out to the public? Was it to sway the public vote? We'll never know now I guess, but I'm almost positive that if they'd replayed the 'entire' scenario and showed Ben's selfishness, then Alice would still be in the house. If Ben wins I will be even more disgusted in BB than I am right now, purely because of the way the care-package scenario unfolded and how it was handled and made to appear to the public when it really counted. I thought that being the very last BB maybe the public would be able to vote without being swayed, but maybe I was wrong in hoping for that.

Good luck to Alice in whatever she does in the future and I'm sure she'll go a very long way. In my opinion she was the best HM this year, alongside Terri and Travis. You're one top chick Alice!

I was also shocked to see Travis go, I thought for sure it would be Terri, Travis and Alice left in final 3. Maybe it just time for him to go, or maybe the way Ben and Rory made Travis out to be a sook and kept bringing up that he'd give his prize money away caused his eviction. Either way, Travis gave us plenty of laughs and I really hope he gets the best out of life and that he manages to finally one day realise that it's ok to sometimes get mad and not be so 'posimistic' about everything. Way to go Travis, you're a great guy.

So now 3 left.... who will win? ... I just hope it's not Ben! I think out of 3 that's left, Terri deserves it more, because of the age and she could retire comfortably. the other two are young and can make things work for them.

I would be ok with Rory winning because he's a nice guy, but Terri to win I hope!
