  • ^Note 1 : On Day 1, shortly after entering the house “People’s Housemate” Tom was asked to reward citizenship to half of his housemates, therefore exiling the remaining. He chose to exile Arthur, Chanelle, Charlotte, Hannah, Lotan, Raph, Rebecca and Sukhvinder. The housemates with exile status were told that their place in the house was at risk. On Day 3, Tom was given the chance to finalise his decision – and therefore swapped Charlotte with Mandy, and Hannah with Imran. The housemates left exiled faced the viewer vote for the first eviction.
  • ^Note 2 : On Day 5, it was revealed that Imran and Mandy received the fewest votes to save. Tom then got to decide which one got evicted. He chose Mandy.
  • ^Note 3 : On Day 7, during a task, Joe was given the punishment of giving a killer nomination. He chose Raph, therefore automatically putting him up for eviction.
  • ^Note 4 : On Day 12, the VIP house guests were each allowed to grant one housemate immunity. They chose Lotan, Kieran and Raph.
  • ^Note 5 : Although every housemate gave two nominations, as usual, Chanelle’s, Ellie’s, Hannah’s, Joe’s, Raph’s, and Tom’s second nominations were not revealed.
  • ^Note 6 : Hannah, Isabelle, Lotan and Tom received the most nominations this week. However, on Day 21, as a punishment for the housemate’s behaviour, Big Brother voided all nominations and put them all up for eviction.
  • ^Note 7 : Throughout the week of this week’s eviction, the voting figures were released on Big Brother’s Bit on the Side allowing the public to know which housemates were, at the time in danger of being evicted. After the eviction, the final voting figures were released too, showing that Savannah was evicted with 36.32% with the most votes, followed by Isabelle with 26.95%, and Hannah with 11.9%. Behind her was Tom with 6.99%, Chanelle on 4.71%, Ellie with 3.26% and Joe not far behind on 3.22%. Charlotte also received just 2.35%, Deborah got 1.92%, Kieran had 1.57%, whilst Raph received the fewest with just 0.8%.
  • ^Note 8 : On Day 25, it was revealed that the “Second Chance” housemates were immune and were automatically given the power to nominate. The other housemates had to earn the right to nominate via tasks. Hannah and Deborah earned this on Day 26. On Day 27, Raph and Ellie also earned the right to nominate.
  • ^Note 9 : There were no nominations this week. Instead, starting on Day 37, the housemates took part in “The Hunt” – a series of challenges where the losers risked facing eviction. Chanelle became the first nominated housemate after being randomly targeted in the first challenge. Simone became the second nominated after being targeted by her fellow housemates in the second challenge. The third challenge claimed Isabelle as its victim after choosing herself to face eviction between her and Sam. Sue fell victim to the fourth challenge after being targeted by Chanelle, Isabelle and Simone.
  • ^Note 10 : As Simone had the most votes to evict, she was evicted out of the backdoor in the early hours of Day 40. Later that day, Emma entered the house announcing that Isabelle had the fewest votes and was safe, whilst housemates had to choose to save either Chanelle or Sue. With only one out of ten housemates saving Sue, she was evicted.
  • ^Note 11 : From Day 41, housemates competed in teams in “The Steal”, stealing money from the prize fund. Members of the winning team will be faced with a dilemma to steal all of the stolen money for themselves, but in doing this would have to evict a housemate. As Andrew pressed the buzzer the fastest, he won the £18,900 and the eviction of a housemate of his choice. He chose to evict Sam on Day 44 however he will not leave the house until Day 47. Even though Sam lost his housemates status on Day 44 he was still eligible to nominate on Day 45. Owing to Sam’s eviction, Andrew also became the highest placing Second Chance Housemate and won £15,000 and could stay until the final, even though he is not eligible to win.
  • ^Note 12 : On Day 47, housemates nominated face to face for what they thought was an immediate backdoor eviction. They chose Hannah and Tom. As Tom and Kieran were tied with two votes each, the result went down to the previous public vote, where Tom was ultimately chosen. The two housemates were then told they had been fake evicted and moved to The Attic, where they were able to spy on their fellow housemates and ultimately decide which two would face the final eviction. They chose Charlotte and Isabelle. Charlotte received the most public votes and was evicted through the backdoor on Day 50.
  • ^Note 13 : For the final week the public were voting for who they wanted to win, rather than to evict. Isabelle won with 52.71% of the final vote, whilst Raph was runner-up with 22.02%. Deborah was third with 14.02%, Tom was fourth with 9.34%. Kieran and Hannah were evicted on Day 52 with 1.32% and 0.59% of the final vote. These percentages reflect the overall vote share, and do not account for vote freezes; Isabelle won 70.53% of the vote between her and Raph to win.
