SPOILER ALERT: This article contains details of the latest Big Brother UK Season 22 episode, which aired on Monday, September 29.
Big Brother UK returned to ITV2 with a savage twist that put a damper on the vibes of the house, evicting a housemate mere minutes after entering the competition.
Hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best teased throughout the live launch on Sunday night that although 12 housemates would be entering the house, one of them would be evicted.
As each housemate was introduced, they were given an eye that would play into the dynamic later on in the game. When all 12 housemates were getting cozy, Big Brother sprung on them that the public had been voting for the housemate they wanted to give an “evil eye” to, which would put them at risk of eviction.
Following the vote, Big Brother named the five housemates with the most votes, who were at risk of eviction, which included Emily, Nancy, Sam, Caroline, and Cameron. The safe housemates were Nancy and Cameron, while Emily, Sam, and Caroline were cursed with an evil eye.
The three cursed housemates were sent to the Exit Room, where their fate would be decided.

“This is Big Brother. Emily, Sam and Caroline, the public have spoken; your fate will be decided in… The Exit Room. Three of you will enter but only two of you will return,” Big Brother told the trio.
When the trio entered the Exit Room, Big Brother said, “The audience voted you here but the final decision on who leaves tonight is not in their hands. It’s in yours.”
Caroline says, “Look, I’ll go cause you two are young.”
Caroline, Emily and Sam each plead their case as to why they should remain in the Big Brother House. Then, amongst themselves, they must decide which housemate to send home.

“I think I should stay because obviously it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity, as it is for all of us,” Emily said. “Obviously, I’m young and this is just absolutely crazy for me, and I love Big Brother…”
Caroline added, “Well, I would absolutely bloody love to stay but the main reason is because I brought so many clothes, and I’m not joking. I brought jewellery, I brought cowboy hats. I thought this would be an opportunity to know what I’m actually like…”
Sam said, “…I’ve wanted to do this my whole life, and I’ve finally got it and I’m just so scared to cut it short but I feel that’s really selfish. I don’t know how to plead my case, but I just really want to do this experience and I’m scared to miss out…”
After they each had pleaded their case, it was time for them to lock in their answers…
