'Big Brother' evicts pair amid sex claims
Two Big Brother contestants have been escorted from the set of the reality television program amid allegations of sexual misconduct.
A statement on the show's website says the producers, Endemol Southern Star and Network Ten, have deemed the actions of Ashley and John are grounds for their removal from the show.
The producers say they will not be commenting any further on the "serious matter", which occurred about 4:00am yesterday.
The incident is believed to have involved fellow housemate Camilla.
Ashley and John, in a joint statement made after they left the house, say they had a great time on the show.
"It is unfortunate it had to end this way, but Big Brother has rules and regulations and we broke them," they said.
"We are all very close in the house and we would never do anything to offend our fellow housemates."
Eight contestants remain on the show, in which they are filmed 24 hours a day sharing a house at Dreamworld on Queensland's Gold Coast.
The prize pool has shrunk from $1 million to $275,000 during the contest due to fines given out for not wearing microphones and discussing eviction nominations.
Contestants David, Camilla, Gaelan and Krystal are up for elimination tonight and the producers say the vote will still go ahead.

So anyone else have any more goss, or were you watching at about 4am???:jesus
"According to fansite Behind Big Brother, the pair climbed into the bed of fellow contestant Camilla at around 4.30am. John was then said to have held her firm as a half-naked Ashley allegedly performed an act on her face.
Although their intent appeared to be jovial in nature, the recipient apparently declared that it was "not cool"."

" can't see another series of BB being made after this one in OZ "
But over the course of the show they have sold in addvertising alone about 26.7 million dollars, now take from that production costs / wages / prizes. they will still walk away with a truck load of cash so as much as i hate too say it ... we will keep seeing BB in this country untill it stops making money.... but you could do as i do .... just dont watch it

I'm with you on this, I can't stand the show myself. My partner likes it though....so we made a deal, it doesn't get on to our tv, but he can watch it all he likes on his three phone.
Though, we do let the kids watch the friday night games. Reminders of those old team game shows of the late 70s early 80s 🙂
Time is a great healer. Unless it's a rash, then you're better off with ointment.
according to triple J around 4:30am john held down Camilla and Ashley 'teabagged' her (dangled his private bits on her head). They were escorted out, didn't even grab their stuff

The show is only good for a perve on monday nights... but that has been taken off air now so now there's nothing going for it.
I have one big problem (well theres more but the one that annoys me most) with the show and that is how they try to make out that the people on the show are a representation of the real world. Now if this is true, 50 % of the population are either gay or bi... though I am guessing the 'bi' ones are only 'bi' on the show because they think it gives them an advantage somehow.
I dont know if it will be back again, im thinking that there's a little bit too much bad publicity for it now. Maybe channel 9 will pick it up, they've got nothing else going for them, nothing to lose.

What ever happened to playing Cleudo, Trivial Pursuit, Monopoly, Scrabble or Boggle for entertainment. This sort of shit really shits me. I'm gonna go play some LP's. Commercial TV can co to hell. :P
sells advertising space, makes a mint off SMS - and appeals to the kids and teens ... damn thing has got nothing to do with 'reality', no idea why anyone would watch it or let their kids watch it ... who gives a shit what happens, sooner or later it the whole genre had to implode. Makes shareholders happy though, which is the only thing that really counts in TV word.
As the song said ' Television - Drug of the Nation, breeding ignorance and spreading radiation'.
Is that true? Every time someone gets fined, they reduce the total prize pool, which is now down from $1 million to $275,000. If that is so, then why don't they discipline each other and stop the chatterboxes who know that they don't have a chance, from doing it? What a bunch of stupid, undisciplined nitwits they all are. It's no wonder that I don't watch it.
i once worked for a lady who went balistic at me for watching Big brother!! She told me it was a voyerism and that i should be ashamed with myself for being a pervert....and then crapped on for the rest of the week about how bad BB is, get a life its only a tv show turn over or dont watch.

last night i watched a show about 4 teens living in a place called goodooga on
compass(abc) their lives 5 years ago & their lives now sad show,depressing show
no future, no hope ,no nothing its a f***ked country for some of us.
ive got an idea maybe these commercial stations can help financially or structurelly
with country people like the abc that is not afraid to air real stories about whats happening with indigenous people & homeless people & a list of others.
but alas that will never happen when theres ratings to be had & money to be made & fools to feed off.
whats worse the invention of the A bomb or the tv to watch the A bomb being used thats what commercial tv boils down to, sad very sad.
wally
This is exactly what BB wants.... media attention! Everyone is talkin bout BB!!! Ash and John, ( not even there real names!! conspiracy, set-up, blah,blah,blah)
I love the show, 🤓 I also love cheese on toast under the griller.. but who cares about me, or you.... just change the channel and stop bitchin !
