Big Brother fans gutted over first nomination results

The first eviction will take place on Friday

Author: Alex RossPublished 13th Oct 2023

It's been an entertaining first week in the Big Brother house! As well as Hallie revealing to the group she is transgender, the housemates were praised for addressing their pronouns, and Scottish dancer Olivia won immunity from the first eviction.

Following this week's shopping task, which seen the house turn into global company Big Bros Ltd, the housemates took part in their first nominations, and the results have left viewers gutted!

Who is up for eviction on Big Brother?

News of this week's nomination results were announced on Big Brother: Late & Live on Thursday 12th October, with hosts AJ and Will confirming Kerry and Farida had received the most votes from their fellow housemates.

Ahead of the live eviction on Friday 13th October, viewers are being advised to 'vote to evict' either Farida or Kerry by using a free vote on the official app.

As viewers will know, the past week has saw 40-year-old Kerry and 50-year-old Farida clash over a number of things, with things intensifying during the shopping task, where Farida labelled the NHS Manager 'lazy'.

After hearing the nomination results, viewers were quick to take to social media to express their anger that two huge characters were up for eviction.

One wrote: 'Devo’d these two are up for eviction. They’re both brilliant housemates', with another adding: 'So we're just sending the entertainment out the door already? Get the boring people out!!!'. (sic)

Another wrote: 'I don’t particularly like them but we kinda need them tbh. Get rid of the bores 😴'. (sic) A third added: 'NOOO! Not the 2 most entertaining housemates!' (sic)

Other viewers were confused that Big Brother chose not to air the nominations on Thursday night's main show, instead revealing the results on the spin-off show.

One added: 'Have I missed something here ? How do we know who's up for eviction already ? It wasn't on tonight's main show ??? Thats really annoying!!!' (sic)

Another added: 'Part of the fun and drama was watching the people vote BEFORE we knew who actually had the most votes. What’s the point watching them vote tomorrow when we already know the result? Please don’t let this be the same every week! We should be seeing it unfold on the highlights and voting opens at the end of the nightly show, NOT, on the Late Show 🙄😡'. (sic)

Check out where you've seen the Big Brother cast before:

Farida

50-year-old Farida is the oldest housemate in the BB house this year.

Farida - Blankety Blank

Just weeks before entering the house, Farida featured as a contestant on the 2023 series of Blankety Blank, which is hosted by Bradley Walsh!

Farida - Come Dine With Me

Blankety Blank wasn't the only show Farida has taken part in! Way back in 2009, the make-up artist from Wolverhampton also featured on an episode of hit Channel 4 series Come Dine With Me. Her episode synopsis reads: 'It's day one of the competition in Wolverhampton and bubbly beautician Farida Khalifa is planning to immerse her guests in authentic Indian culture.'

Kerry

40-year-old Kerry entered the BB house on a mobility scooter due to her suffering from multiple sclerosis, and admitted she'd never applied for past series due to accessibility issues.

Kerry - Deal or No Deal

A huge 16 years before entering the Big Brother house, NHS Manager Kerry appeared as a contestant on Channel 4 game show Deal or No Deal, where she won a steady £35,000!

Dylan

39-year-old Dylan made history when he become the first housemate to enter the house with a prosthetic leg. The DJ sadly lost his right leg after a motorbike accident in Tenerife in 2015.

Dylan - The Last Leg

Before his appearance on Big Brother, Dylan told producers he'd previously been a guest on Channel 4 show The Last Leg. He said: "I appeared on a TV show called The Last Leg about amputees - two years before I lost my leg!"

Noky

26-year-old banker Noky is bringing both brains and beauty to the BB house...

Noky - Great Britain at Miss Universe

Although she's a banker, Derby girl Noky has previously represented Great Britain at Miss Universe! She told BB bosses ahead of her appearance on the show: "I also want to show what it's like being a woman who's worked in male-dominated fields. I want to show that women are capable of doing anything they want."

Zak

28-year-old Zak moved to the UK from Thailand when he was just 10-years-old, admitting his life story usually surprises people.

Zak - ASOS

Although Manchester lad Zak hasn't appeared on any other TV shows, eagle-eyed Big Brother fans have recognised him off the ASOS website! Zak models a number of items on the online shopping giant's website.


Zak is also a model for boohooMAN.

Tom

21-year-old Tom brought the chilled vibes into the Big Brother house, whilst also pulling the odd prank here and there.

Tom - Kavos Weekender

Tom appeared on ITV2's Kavos Weekender, decked out in a Hawaiian shirt alongside his pal Liam. Despite appearing rather chill on Big Brother, Tom described himself on Kavos Weekender as "high-maintenance", whilst also boasting about his mullet. If you want to check him out on the show, just head to series one episode seven.

During the launch show on Sunday 8th October, 23-year-old dancer Olivia was put up for eviction when fellow housemate Jenkin voted her as the hardest person to live with.

However, following a pretty dramatic reaction, Olivia was given the chance to make herself immnune from the eviction, if she was able to prove to her fellow housemates that she wasn't the least entertaining housemate.

As she succeeded in her mission, Olivia was immune from this week's eviction.

Big Brother airs every Sunday-Friday at 9pm on ITV2/STV2.
