How come Kitten was evicted for daubing writing on the wall, when Vanessa Feltz was not for daubing writing on the table?--Darrelljon 20:30, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

She wasn't actually ejected by BB; she was up against the public vote and evicted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ellisjm (talk • contribs)

She was threw out for rulebreaking. Several times. -- cds^(talk) 16:13, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Firstly it's thrown, and secondly NO - she was evicted!! Big Brother told her that it was her third warning and that she would be automatically put up for the public vote. She was evicted that Friday with a great number of the votes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.209.217.221 (talk • contribs)

See here -- cds^(talk) 00:17, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

So was Vanessa Feltz ever warned?--Darrelljon 12:11, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't think so. But remember, it's a celebrity show for charity. -- cds^(talk) 12:17, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Kitten was never up for the public vote; she broke so many rules that ultimatley Kitten was told that if she broke one more of the Big Brother rules A housemate would be evicted. She did so and they were told that on Friday A housemate would be evicted. Ultimatley Kitten was chosen as the housemate to be evicted and left the house through the main doors; there was no crowd as Kitten has explicitly mentioned she did not want a crowd there and Davina walked her out of the house. There was NO PUBLIC VOTE Kitten was thrown out for rulebreaking but was told A housemate would be evicted in order to punish her further by turning her fellow housemates against her - Jezabelda 01:48, 20 July 2006

[edit] Colours

Please could someone add the colours for Not in House, No nominations, a colour for privates task possibly etc... I am unsure of how to... Thanks Ellisjm 12:52 UTC 22 June 06

Changed the colours of No Nominations and Privates/Sergeants to match Series 7's table (Brotherhood colours same as Private/Sergeants). Squidward2602 18:31, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] TOC

Just wondering, why is there no TOC?? godgoddingham333 11:02, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I removed it because I thought it looked better. If you disagree, you can put it back on. —JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 11:08, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] This Daniel guy and him being gay

There's good reason to remove this from where it was, but there's nowhere else to put it, as his section is so short. Did he speak a lot about it, was it a part of his personality, or anything like this? Did he fit the "gay stereotype" at all? --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 00:00, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Well kinda. He kept obsessing with Jason's bum etc. and was talking about men all the time... Does that help?? godgoddingham333 00:09, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Sounds as though it warrants re-inclusion... --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 00:10, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

OK, but it should be written like it's not his occupation or something! --Alex⁹⁸⁹¹ 00:12, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

It's written as Rob's occupation. Funny how he's also a "gay hairdresser"... Any ideas on how to change this one? I already know how we can change the Rob one. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 00:16, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Leave out gay, and add some info about it in a new paragraph --Alex⁹⁸⁹¹ 00:19, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

That's Rob done ([1]), but I've created an ultra-long sentence in the process. Think you could pad out Dan's section and do something similar? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JD UK (talk • contribs)

No can do, I don't remember much about it! --Alex⁹⁸⁹¹ 00:27, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Oh... Anybody else? --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 00:29, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

He pulled my mate at Spiders in Hull. My mate is a faggot.

[edit] Week 1

In week 1 shall we put who the housemates nominated not to have their suitcase?--SimonPeter 22:18, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

I wouldn't think so, as the table is for nominations and evictions. --_{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 22:20, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Should we create a table for that anyway. --195.93.21.33 20:22, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

I'd say no. It seems pretty trivial, and when it was done in Big Brother 2005 Australia, no table was created to say who voted for who. _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 20:43, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Michelle Bass

This contestant has since become a glamour model and regular on Television X, a porn channel on British television. She now deserves her own entry. There is plenty of information about her on the internet and she has been in the papers and on the TV lots. A project for someone?

Yes I might create a page for her if I get a chance. The filthy mare is getting fairly famous now --SandyDancer 09:37, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vannessa

Vannessa hasn't been going out with Ben Fogle for YONKS... that should be changed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.152.214.100 (talk • contribs)

Have you got a source on that, e.g. a website or magazine saying this? If so, you can update the article yourself with the new information. Tra (Talk) 22:49, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes, when Ben Fogle done the Atlantic thing, they showed his partner on screen, and that was no Vanessa Nimmo. Also, I found this on Sky News Showbiz website: http://showbiz.sky.com/showbiz/article/0,,50001-1167235,00.html it states that "he dated Big Brother contestant Vanessa for a few months after the show". Template:82.152.214.100

OK, thanks, I've edited her section to include that. Tra (Talk) 22:30, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, me again, I've just been looking at the main article, and it remains how it was before, however, looking at the "history" tab, it shows that it has been edited to include the Vanessa/Ben Fogle thing, so I don't know whats going on there!! Template:82.152.214.100

That's strange, I've edited it to say After being on Big Brother, she dated Ben Fogle for a few months. If you can't see that, you could try refreshing the page or clearing your browser cache. Tra (Talk) 15:00, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Big Brother UK 5 logo.gif

Image:Big Brother UK 5 logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Chronology etc.

Can someone with enough time do the chronology section with the seperate boxes, and do the nominations table colours, as I don't know how? Thanks godgoddingham ³³³ 11:49, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fresh Meat - Fresh Mess?

Uh-Oh, somebody messed up the Eviction percentages. it's really bad. Just on a side note, I changed First Note that says : Kitten was evicted BY BIG BROTHER. --BigOz22 (talk) 15:12, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Contradictions and other issues with Chronology and Prize Fund sections

I have noticed a few contradictions between these two secions:

• Week 2.

  C: The housemates lost £5,000 during the task. / During the task on Day 9, Big Brother decided that Ahmed had not abided by the task rules, and Big Brother decided to take £1,000 away from the prize fund. (If there is a £5,000 involved, it also isn't clear whether this includes the later-mentioned £1,000 or not.)

  PF: During the weekly task, the housemates lost £10,000. The total after week two was £81,000.

• Week 4.

  C: On Day 25, housemates were given a paper-maché task, and they had to create a unique housemate sculpture. Later, Ahmed tore it down.

  PF: Task was cancelled due to the removal of Emma over Fight Night.

  (I definitely remember the sculpture task taking place. Was there another task in the same week that was cancelled? Or have the weeks been mixed up? That isn't clear.)

I'd just undertaken to improve the Prize Fund section, but before I do, I'd like these issues to be cleaned up. And while I'm at it, here are a few more issues:

1. "As a result of the fight on Day 20, Emma was moved back to the bedsit" - Day 20 was in Week 3. My recollection was that Emma was moved back to the bedsit on the night of the fight, if not then the day after, IWC this is out of place in week 4.
2. "Becki entered the house on Day 31 as Emma's replacement." What evidence is there that Becki was anybody's replacement? The eviction in week 3 was dropped because of Emma's ejection, and the ejection of Kitten was done in place of the week 1 eviction. So unless the series was made a week longer than originally planned or there were already planned gaps in the evictions, Becki can't have been a replacement for anybody. My impression at the time was that Becki was put in just for the random sake of adding an extra one.
3. Week 3, "Prize money dropped to £77,000." What was the circumstance? No task is mentioned for week 3.

[edit] KITTEN - EVICTED OR EJECTED!

Hello, Its really frustrating to find things disagreeing with each other in the same page. In the info box it has a red box beside her name which indiactes she was evicted. Also in the Event table it says she was Evicted by Big Brother. However in the Nominations table is states she was ejected as it does in the Housemate bit about Kitten. She was Evicted by Big Brother and Channel 4 and Davina counted her as the first Evicted. There for She was First Evicted. So can someone change the Nomination Box so that it states she was Evicted and under her name you could put "Evicted By Big Brother" instead of "to evict". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.40.84.142 (talk) 14:07, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm inclined to think that technically it was an ejection and they merely called it an eviction. But let's see what others think.... -- Smjg (talk) 01:35, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
