Big Brother fans 'work out' double eviction twist as two housemates set to be evicted

Big Brother viewers are convinced two contestants will be axed tonight in a shock double elimination twist. Feyisola, Tate, Teja and Nancy all faced the chop after receiving the highest number of nominations from their fellow housemates earlier this week and are up for eviction tonight (Friday, October 24). Yet sharp-eyed viewers reckon bosses are concealing another massive bombshell that will shake up the house. An email was dispatched through Applause Store earlier this week revealing that this week's "special" Big Brother live programme was "no ordinary eviction" but they "cannot reveal more!". The correspondence from the company, which distributes tickets for the live broadcasts, has left fans speculating whether multiple housemates will face the axe, reports the Mirror . Posting on X, previously Twitter, one viewer wrote: "Applause Store keep sending emails out saying that this Friday 'is no normal eviction'. "I'm pretty sure it can't be a double since they've opened the vote without stating so. I wonder what's up? I'd love another 'week of Big Brother in one night' twist #BBUK." Another contributed: "Genuine Q, do they have to state it's a double eviction beforehand or can they leave it as a surprise?". A third individual commented: "Something makes me think it's going to be double eviction." A fourth social media user remarked: "I'm expecting a double eviction I cant lie." Someone else concurred: "This should 100% be a double eviction. #BBUK" Bookmaker Coral makes Feyisola the odds-on favourite, at 1-2, to be evicted next on Big Brother ahead of tonight's live show. Nancy is 4-1 to go next, Tate is 5-1, while Teja is 10-1. Coral's John Hill said: "Feyisola is the odds-on favourite to be evicted next on Big Brother. With rumours of a possible double eviction, Nancy could also be in trouble." It's been a turbulent week in the Big Brother house following last week's fake eviction which saw Sam relocate into a secret room with returning housemates Farida and Emily. The trio were able to observe their fellow housemates before re-entering the house in a stunning twist. Their entrance caused tensions but Farida and Emily were not permitted to face nomination. Big Brother airs Sunday to Friday on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm

Hollyoaks star admits 'I'm not scared of anything' and teases I'm A Celebrity stint

A Hollyoaks star is hoping to swap the fictional village for the Australian jungle. Tamara Wall has revealed her desire to follow in the footsteps of co-stars Nick Pickard, Owen Warner and Jorgie Porter by appearing on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! Her final scenes as Grace Black aired earlier this week which saw the village villain flatline in hospital after being shot by her sister Clare Devine (Gemma Bissix). Speaking about what lies ahead following her Hollyoaks departure, Tamara said: "I'd definitely love to go in the jungle because I'm not scared of anything. "Half of the insects they have crawling around them all the time I had as pets. It doesn't scare me at all.", reports the Mirror . "I'd love to go on Strictly too but as an ex professional dancer it's probably a bit controversial." The actress played the villain in the Channel 4 soap since 2013 and appeared in countless gripping storylines over the past 12 years. Her concluding scenes showed Grace's participation in human trafficking, with Tamara admitting there was no possibility of redemption for her character. Tamara revealed: "I think at the end of the day, you have to have morals as a show and I didn't want it to look like Hollyoaks didn't care. "I just don't think there was anyway of redeeming Grace as a character for everything that she's done but I think with the ending she had, she got to say she was sorry. "I was really nervous that all the fans would be like 'yay she's dead' but they weren't at all and that was bizarrely nice." Grace had recently discovered Rex Gallagher (Jonny Labey) was her son rather than her brother and she died just moments after he addressed her as "mum" for the first time. Tamara revealed that her exit was wrapped in such secrecy that she couldn't tell even her nearest and dearest until the last minute. She confessed: "So many people were genuinely shocked because we managed to keep it a secret for once. It was so hard and I couldn't even tell my mum." Speculation about celebrity contestants lined up for the forthcoming series of I'm A Celebrity includes Loose Women star Kelly Brook, model and TV personality Vogue Williams and Emmerdale favourite Lisa Riley. Hollyoaks airs Monday to Wednesday on E4 at 7pm and first look episodes can be streamed Channel 4 from 7am
