There was an extremely controversial bit of editing on last night's highlights show during the Carole/Nicky argument, which seems to have backfired on Endemol because it went badly wrong.

There's a full explanation of what happened and a clip here (shame about the quality) - watch the person on the right in the foil blanket as they move to their left.


I think the £100,000 will be making the headlines more than this weird edit will, unfortunately.

I thought that site faked that clip at first because it looks so obvious and they only managed to capture it with a video camera pointed at the screen, but I just watched that part back again from my own recording and its right there for all to see. I uploaded a better version of the clip to youtube... http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=O-z9ktg5cr0

I'm surprised I didn't spot that when I watched it, I assume most other people didn't either. It would be nice to hear what Endermol have to say about this but I doubt we will hear from them.

This isn't the first time jump cut has been used in Big Brother. An instance first appears in BB3 in the rich/poor divide where Alex seemingly disappears... I wouldn't say that Big Brother were the only reality show to use this editing technique either.

I think this is an interesting twist which could reveal the motives of some within the house. Now that they think there is no prize money I wonder if some will want to walkout, which inevitably could backfire if many did. I think letting the three up for eviction choose was a good idea instead of just making one person choose, which would be tough on that one person.

All a bit anti-climactic, I think BB is all twisted out.

It feels like the game has properly begun now and it will be interesting to see who changes now, thinking that their is no prize money.

hmm...the twist could work out in the end, i don't know. it'll definitely reveal some motives and change some gameplans.
saw this on being big brother, and thought it was interesting...

Coincidentally, as always seems to happen when twists are about to be revealed, this morning the housemates have been speculating about what clues there are in the Big Brother eye, focusing mainly on the idea of the keyhole and questioning whether there is a key hidden in the house which accesses a secret area.

never noticed the keyhole in the eye before!

Liam might as well go home now.


A good choice though - don't think too many viewers will be pissed off with that.


It could of done with something more though - perhaps revealing a luxury loft or something for Liam - or the complete opposite to force him to earn his £100,000.
