Big Brother in fix row as third contestant AXED after shock scenes are ‘cut’
BIG Brother’s Izaaz has become the third person to be evicted from the famous house.
The news came as a huge shock to viewers as they expected Marcello to get the boot – after his controversial time in the house.
Izaaz, Khaled, Marcello and Nathan were all up for eviction.
But it has been Marcello who has caused a series of issues throughout his stay – not Izaaz.
And things reached boiling this point week after Marcello was seen grabbing Lily by the neck in shock scenes.
Those watching at home are convinced the wrong person has gone home.
One person raged: “This has gotta be a fix there is no way people voted izzaz over marchello.”
A second said: “Ain’t no way people were voting to evict Izaaz. This is a blatant fix.”
While a third commented: “You left the misogynist in the house. I bet you any money this is a fix.”
Marcello’s shock moment
In scenes that aired on the compound’s live feed on Wednesday night, Lily was seen sticking her fingers up at Marcello as she walked by him.
In response, Marcello grabbed her by the wrist with one hand and put his other briefly around her neck.
Lily quickly pulls her head away from him, and he then throws his arm around her in a half-hug before she shrugs him off and walks away.
Insiders say Marcello was later given a talking to by Big Brother bosses.
A source told us: “The moment was spotted by fans during the live stream but didn’t make the next day’s 60-minute episode.
“However, Marcello was reminded of Big Brother’s expectation for appropriate behaviour and language while in the house.”
Anti-Semitism row
That wasn’t the only drama the house saw this week – an episode was edited following concerns raised about a Ali’s T-shirt containing an alleged “symbol widely associated with anti-Israel sentiment”.
Ali wore a watermelon T-shirt on the ITV2 show that appeared to resemble the colours of the Palestinian flag in red, green, white and black, and what seemed like the shape of the disputed Israel and Palestine territories.
Meanwhile, Marcello has repeatedly come under fire by viewers for his behaviour in the house, with him being accused of ‘misogynistic’ remarks towards female housemates.
During one moment, Marcello was seen telling Sarah she “smelled like period” and asked her if she was menstruating when she was in a bad mood.
He was also asked by Ali to stop making sexually graphic remarks with the members of the house when they didn’t ask for it.
The youth worker had previously falsely claimed he and Ali had kissed – prompting a wave of Ofcom complaints.
