BREAKING: Big Brother host Will Best ANNOUNCES Major Change to live evictions after 25 years as truth comes out

Big Brother is undergoing a major change for its 25th anniversary with the normal voting format being thrown out of the window.

Co-host Will Best announced on Big Brother: Late and Live tonight that fans can expect the voting process to be very different ahead of the first live eviction. After teasing the news throughout the show, Will said: “You may have heard this series the game is changing.

“Ahead of the first live eviction of the series, I can now exclusively reveal that in a break from long-standing Big Brother tradition that you the viewers will not be voting to evict. You will be voting to save.

“The fans asked for it – we have delivered. Big Brother was listening.”

The voting change marks the first time in Big Brother history that viewers will vote to save contestants throughout a whole series. Viewers are typically asked to vote for the stars that they want to evict.

While the vote to save format has been used before on the show – and in the Celebrity series – it’s the first time that it will be used for every live eviction.

Some fans took to social media to praise the change, with one writing: “ITV actually listening and bringing back Vote To Save #BBUK.”

A second tweeted: “Yes!! #BBUK.” While a third said: “Vote to Save! #BBUK,” alongside an emoji with heart eyes.

However, some were underwhelmed by the twist. “Vote to save… Hmmm,” one sceptical viewer wrote online.

“Pros and cons to it. Let’s see how this series turns out as to whether this is a good thing or not. Is that really all ‘The game is changing’ was though?! #BBUK”

During tonight’s episode of Big Brother, fans were left sobbing when new housemate Richard revealed that he had adopted a 33-year-old refugee, who was his only son.

Speaking to the other housemates, 60-year-old Richard said: “I was actually working in Malaysia at the time and the hotel I was staying in, this particular gentleman was working there but he was refugee from Myanmar. He told me early on that he lost his natural father when he was a kid.

“That was our first meeting but a friendship began to develop. Whenever my travels took me to that part of the world, I would try to visit. Then, he turned to me for advice and as we got close to the end of it, he said, ‘Is this what it’s like having a dad to help you through life’s problems?’ and the crucial thing is independently of that, I began thinking, ‘Is this what it’s like having a son?'”
