Big Brother Fans Criticize 'Worst' Backdoor Eviction Ever Seen
Viewers of the ITV reality series reacted angrily after contestant Sam from Skipton was unexpectedly evicted from the 2025 season of Big Brother. Fans called it the "worst" backdoor eviction they had ever witnessed on the show.
Earlier in the week, housemates Sam and Nancy were nominated for eviction. Audiences were given only fifteen minutes to vote for who they wanted to save on Tuesday night. The eviction happened shortly after a fireworks-themed party, though fans had to wait until Wednesday’s episode to learn who had left the house.
The Eviction Moment
During the latest episode, which also marked Teja’s birthday, Big Brother assembled other participants, including Richard, Jenny, and Caroline, in the garden for the end of the fireworks display that came with a surprise twist.
“Housemates, it’s nearly time for Big Brother’s firework display. But, before we light the fuse, Big Brother has some news. Tonight is not just fireworks night, it’s also eviction night.”
“Sam, Nancy, go to the snug now to collect your spectacular eviction outfits.”
Inside the snug, Sam and Nancy discovered themed costumes — red for Sam and blue for Nancy. Moments later, Big Brother revealed who would leave the house.
“Sam and Nancy, tonight one of you is about to go out with a bang.”
Fan Reactions
The twist left many viewers frustrated, calling the sudden decision unfair and poorly executed. Social media discussions quickly erupted under the hashtags #BBUK and #BBLL, with some fans labeling it the lowest point of the current season.
