Big Brother 9 UK - Dennis Removed from House

Dennis has been removed from the Big Brother house today, following an incident last night which involved him spitting in fellow housemate Mohameds face.

A Channel 4 spokeswoman said: “Spitting in someone’s face is seriously offensive and Mohamed was understandably upset. Big Brother has very clear rules about offensive behaviour. Like all housemates Dennis was clearly informed before entering the house that he faced eviction if he acted in an unacceptable manner.”

Tonights eviction will go ahead as planned.

Two housemates removed in one week due to unnaceptable behaviour, it’s not looking good for Big Brothers selection process is it? I just hope that the international fans among you realise, we’re not all like that!

Big Brother 9 UK - Alex’s departure ratings sucess for CH4+1

Channel 4+1 helped boost Big Brother’s ratings last night in the wake of contestant Alexandra’s eviction from the house.

The catch-up show gave Channel 4+1 its largest ever audience with 703,000 (4.4%) tuning in between 10pm and 11pm. Alex was removed from the house on Wednesday but the drama did not reach Channel 4 until last night.

Big Brother drew 3.5m (15.2%) on Channel 4 from 9pm - also a strong audience, but limited by competition from ITV1’s Euro 2008 football. The reality installments combined audience, of 4.2m, was the largest of the series since the launch show two weeks ago.

Big Brother 9 UK - What got Alex removed?

Apparently this conversation was the straw that finally broke the camels back for Alexandra De-Gale and caused her to be removed from the house earlier this evening.

Big Brother contestant Alexandra De-Gale was tonight thrown off the show for intimidating other housemates.

As a result, the first eviction of the ninth series - due to take place on Friday - has been cancelled.

Channel 4 said that during her nomination for this week’s eviction, De-Gale allegedly threatened her fellow housemates with punishment from “gangster friends”.

Alexandra allegedly made the comment about gangsters while speaking to albino contestant Darnell last night, while a number of other housemates were in proximity.

According to Channel 4’s transcript, while discussing the fact that she had been nominated, Alexandra told Darnell: “I’m not throwing water at anyone. It’s bigger than that … personal offence is never forgotten. Do you know what I mean?

“We are just inside the house. I’ve got a very, very, very, very, very strong team outside the house”.

She added: “I just can’t wait to see my mans and them and see what their plans are, who they got … I’m not talking about those mans, I’m talking about my gangster friends. They got some instructions to follow out.”

She added later: “I get to go out, see everyone’s friends, I get to see their family. I get to do the shit that I wanna do. Pow, pow, pow.”

Angela Jain, Head of E4 and Big Brother at Channel 4, said: “Alex’s comments will be widely interpreted as having been intended to intimidate. Other housemates have said they found her comments to be threatening and we believe that is the reasonable conclusion for them to have reached given the way Alex has behaved previously.

“Big Brother has very clear rules about housemates’ conduct and that kind of behaviour is not acceptable.

“She has already been spoken to twice about her behaviour, and, like all housemates, was clearly informed before entering the house that she faced eviction if she acted in an unacceptable manner.”

Big Brother 9 UK - BREAKING NEWS: Alex removed from house

It has now been made official by ‘Paula’ at Channel 4 that Alexandra has been removed from the house for continuous unnaceptable behaviour.

Hello there. As you may have guessed from the suspension of the vote, something has been up in the Big Brother House today. Here is the press release, which explains the reason why Friday night’s eviction has been cancelled

“Contestant Alexandra De-Gale has been removed from the Big Brother house for repeatedly breaking the programme’s rules by behaving in an unacceptable and sometimes intimidating manner towards fellow housemates.

Alex was in discussion with Darnell in the living room shortly after 10.15pm yesterday evening (17th June), with a number of other housemates in proximity.

Discussing her nomination for this week’s eviction, Alex was heard to make apparently intimidatory comments about her intentions on leaving the house. Shortly afterwards, Dennis, Rebecca and Rex discussed her comments in the garden and were clear that they found her behaviour to be threatening, a view that Rex repeated subsequently during a diary room discussion with Big Brother.

This incident follows a series of arguments involving Alex since the ninth series of Big Brother started on 5th June. She has twice been called to the diary room and reminded of the rules governing behaviour towards other housemates.

Her latest remarks were not screened via the ‘as live’ streaming on E4 but were reported up to senior production staff. The decision was taken to remove Alex from the house on the grounds that she had repeatedly broken the programme’s rules governing housemates’ behaviour, despite twice being reminded of her responsibilities.

Alex was called to the Diary Room at approximately 8pm on Wednesday 18th June to be informed of the decision and was removed from the house without further contact with other contestants.

She was one of two housemates nominated for eviction this week and as a result, in line with the terms and conditions covering phone voting on Big Brother, the latest eviction vote has been cancelled.

Angela Jain, Head of E4 and Big Brother at Channel 4, said: “Alex’s comments will be widely interpreted as having been intended to intimidate. Other housemates have said they found her comments to be threatening and we believe that is a reasonable conclusion for them to have reached given the way Alex has behaved previously.

“Big Brother has very clear rules about housemates’ conduct and that kind of behaviour is not acceptable. She had already been spoken to twice about her behaviour and, like all housemates, was clearly informed before entering the house that she faced eviction if she acted in an unacceptable manner.”
