Review by David Beckett
Big Brother reached new levels of manipulation last night with its "fake" eviction.
Basically, they are desperate to keep Charley in as without her the highlights show would be 10 minutes long each night. They realised that she would be up for eviction this week so in order to ensure she stays yet another week they came up with the fake eviciton idea whereby they evict her, interview her, show her interview to the housemates then throw her back in.
In theory it was a good idea but they managed to ruin it completely. Instead of treating it like a regular eviction they got the crowd to be silent when she walked out and gave them all generic banners saying "this is not an audience". Then when it came to the interview Davina tells her that its not going to be a regular interview as Big Brother has given Davina certain questions to ask Charley. All of this weird behaviour clearly gave Charley an idea that something weird was happening and she visibly held her tongue and said very little about any of the housemates. They then showed her a tape of her tantrums and chucked her back in, this time to some boos from the crowd.
All that they succeeded in doing is giving Charley information on how she is perceived in the outside world and show her what she needs to do to change that. Completely against the whole idea of not knowing whats going on in the outside world. I firmly believe that the shows producers are trying to mould her into this years winner by feeding her information in this manner so that when she is in the final 3 (and she will be) they can market her as the person who has come the furthest since they entered the house. "hasn't she changed" etc.
If they had done a regular style interview she would have said so much more and had to face so much more crap when she went back in. As it was she cottoned on, held her tongue then went back in armed with information to turn her game around.
Crap, crap, crap.

I beg to differ. It is all very clever.
Big Brother is all about manipulation, and you can bet your bottom dollar that they have more surprises up their sleeve.
Charley is their biggest audience pull - can you blame them for milking her for all she is worth? ![]()
Well if she's gonna get evicted anyway, may as well get one more week out of her? She is after all the catalist for sooo much in that house, without her it'll be really dull.

Ah, but she isn't even up for eviction this week. It'll be Nicky instead - and that will leave her (Charley) feeling a little more lonely!
She was extremely clever though, twisting the situation to boost her image inside the house.
By telling the housemates that everyone outside loves her, and talking non-stop (oh my god, how does she talk that fast all the time???) about her fake eviction experience, she now has the housemates eating out of her hand virtually.
I can't see her winning, but I really admire her gameplan!
