Big Brother fans have condemned the 2025 series' eviction as the "worst" backdoor exit they have ever witnessed after Sam from Skipton was expelled from the ITV reality show on November 5.
Earlier in the week, Sam and Nancy were nominated by their housemates. Viewers were given only 15 minutes on November 4 to vote for who they wanted to save. Despite this quick vote, fans had to wait until the next day's episode to discover who was evicted, leading to disappointment and criticism.
The eviction took place during an episode that also celebrated housemate Teja’s birthday. Big Brother gathered contestants including Richard, Jenny, and Caroline in the garden for a special fireworks display with a surprise.
“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 and Nancy were instructed to go to the snug and received eviction outfits—Sam in red, Nancy in blue rockets.
