something annoying i've noticed with BB is when they go for a break in the highlights show they show a clip with 'comming up...' in the corner but they don't actually show it when they come back.
an example being the other night they showed a clip of lea and pete sat by the pool an pete falls back as if he's falling into the pool. In the next part that clip wasn't shown

It was. He fell in and then wandered off to have a shower as he was so cold.
I think you might have been hypnotised by Lea's oilys.

Looks like Australian TV rules are going to be changed because of that 'incident'
TV clampdown follows Big Brother 'assault'

Australian broadcasting rules will be changed to bring live webcasts within the remit of content regulation, following the live internet streaming of an alleged sexual assault during reality TV show Big Brother.
The incident, on Network Ten's Big Brother, involved two male housemates apparently holding down and sexually assaulting a 22-year-old woman with one of them rubbing his crotch in her face. The footage was not shown on TV but appeared on the show's live internet streaming service.
The two men involved have since been removed from the show. Police questioned all three but the woman declined to make an official complaint.
Earlier this week, the Australian government referred the show to the television standards watchdog. However, Network Ten escaped prosecution over the incident.
The Australian Communications & Media Authority ruled that a loophole in broadcasting rules allowed the broadcaster to avoid censure because the images were streamed on the internet to a paid-for, adults-only service, according to the communications minister, Helen Coonan.
"Given the community outrage about this matter, it would appear the codes applying to television programme classifications may also be out of step with community standards," she said.
"In addition to legislative changes, I will direct ACMA to conduct a detailed review of whether the free-to-air television code of practice is operating to provide appropriate community safeguards in relation to reality TV programming."
The prime minister, John Howard, has branded the reality show "stupid" and appealed to the network to axe it. But Ten and Big Brother's producers in Australia have said the series is popular and will continue.
The families of the two men expelled from the series will consider suing the programe for exploiting them, Sydney's Daily Telegraph newspaper has reported.

I hope things go well tonight and we don't lose Spiral! We can afford to lose Jonathan I think, but losing Spiral would be a waste.
Hopefully it'll be made clear to Aisleyne who is going where - and hopefully she'll make the right choice (I think she would choose Spiral over Jonathan - but then again, I didn't think she'd choose Michael and Jennie last night!)
And what Spiral said last night is so true - they all wanted men in the house and Aisleyne sends in two girls and a gay guy!
One thing though, as disastrous as this twist has been, the HMs don't suspect at all that Aisleyne will return!

Me either, but I thought she might have considered BB would play a double-bluff on her.

Is Big Brother just plain stupid after watching tonights big brother seeing Jennie and Michael enter the main house why didnt big bro lock spiral, jonathan and ashleyne in the living room so that they couldn't go into the wee bit and joins the bedroom and the garden so that they didnt hear the housemates scream out in the garden!

Best Eviction show ever!
A cracking end to a twist that went quite wrong really (though I think it's been a better twist for going wrong!)
They'll be complaints about how Aisleyne suffered - but only a week ago she was in the diary room reminding herself it's all a game! And I think the 4 best neighbours got in!
One thing I will add is I think I've been proven right! The eviction shows are much better from the studio!
