Big Brother Double Eviction Sees Brutal Parting Shot
The Big Brother house witnessed a dramatic double eviction on Friday, 7th November, culminating in a brutally memorable exit for one departing housemate. Following a public vote, the ITV reality show said goodbye to two contestants, Nancy from Glasgow and Caroline from Canvey Island, after they found themselves nominated alongside Jenny by their fellow housemates.
A Controversial Exit and a Bitter Remark
While Nancy left the house dancing and even treating the audience to a cheeky twerk, Caroline's departure took a sour turn. The 56-year-old PR professional, who had faced a chorus of boos from the crowd, spotted a sign in the audience supporting fellow housemate Richard to win. Reacting instantly, Caroline declared to the watching nation: "Richard is the antichrist."
This was not the first time Caroline had used this provocative nickname for the 60-year-old fan favourite. Her vocal disdain for Richard, a practising Christian, has been a recurring theme during her time in the house, drawing significant criticism from viewers who accused her of unfairly targeting the latecomer.
Social Media Backlash and a Defensive Interview
The fallout from Caroline's eviction remark was swift and severe on social media. Viewers took to platform X, formerly Twitter, to express their outrage under the #BBUK hashtag. One user commented, "Was just starting to feel a little bad for Caroline with all the boos then she goes and calls Richard the antichrist again", while another questioned her judgement, asking what kind of positive reaction she expected.
During her subsequent exit interview, Caroline addressed her newly-earned 'villain' reputation, insisting to hosts, "All my friends and family know I'm a nice person. I'm a nice person... I just didn't like some people in the house." Despite the controversy, or perhaps because of it, Caroline became one of the most talked-about housemates of the series, with some fans campaigning for her to stay purely for the entertainment value she brought to the show.
The latest eviction episode, featuring this dramatic exit, is available to stream now on ITVX.
