Tensions are set to rise in the Big Brother house next week.
Host Will Best dropped a bombshell on Friday’s spin-off Late and Live about a nominations shake-up which fans predict will ‘sew more distrust’ amongst the housemates.
In keeping with the Hunger Games challenges, housemates will be required to do their nominations face-to-face as opposed to doing them in private in the Diary Room.
Will, 38, told viewers: ‘Look, next week is going to be spicier than [contestant] Dylan’s chicken.
‘I can reveal that on Tuesday there will be nominations again but – they are going to be face to face.’

Will said: ‘I can reveal that on Tuesday there will be nominations again but – they are going to be face to face’ (pictured with co-host AJ Odudi
The news seemed to go down well with the live audience who cheered and viewers took to X – formerly known as Twitter – to praise producers on the move.
Fans wrote: ‘Face-to-face nominations next week!!! This will be tense.’
‘Face to face nominations. This is what makes Big Brother.’
‘Yinrun will be having a tough time during face to face nominations. She’s the type of person who hates hurting people’s feelings which is fair enough, but it is Big Brother after all.’
‘I think it works with the Hunger Games theme so I’m down – I think it’ll sew more distrust.’ ‘I wanna see face to face next week’ (sic).
On Friday night, Paul and Dylan became the latest housemates to be booted from the show in a double eviction.
The pair faced the wrath of the live audience and were booed even before their names were announced by AJ and Will.
Paul, 24, emerged from the house to face the booing crowd just 24-hours after his foul-mouthed outburst saw the show’s live feed pulled off air.

Immediately after his elimination, Paul reflected on his argument with Trish Balusa – who had accused him of being a ‘bully’ in the lead-up to his eviction and explained that he and his rival were ‘very similar’ in personality.
Speaking to AJ and Will, he said: ‘I won’t lie, it was overwhelming. I did kind of expect it. I know I’m quite a loud person. When people say you forget the cameras are there, you really really do.
‘I think me and Trish are very, very similar. I do like to wind people up and I think that’s part of the game. I could see why last night she thought that but in the house we all did wind each other up.’
During his time in the house, Paul had been seen growing close to dancer Olivia, 23, although he insisted their relationship is strictly platonic as he reminded viewers he has a girlfriend.
He said: ‘On the outside, I have a lot of girlfriends. Like, friends who are girls. I’ve got a girlfriend – she’s sat right there. Olivia was a very similar character to me so we’re just good friends I think. We’re like-minded people.’
Next Dylan, 39, took the walk of shame but managed to put on a brave face saying had been ‘expecting it’.
Again, greeted by boos, host Will attempted to reassure the DJ saying: ‘It’s all a pantomime’.
He had been taken on role of house chef but fell out with housemates Trish and Noky when they had been paired up for a special task earlier in the week and nominated him for a separate eviction.
Although he survived that eviction, he accused the girls of ‘black-on-black’ crime and admitted that moment is probably why he was voted out by the public on Friday’s episode.
Speaking following the eviction, he said: ‘Definitely because I lost my rag the other day. I knew before the nominations. This week, I was getting snappy and there is a flash point there as you can see. I can just say sorry again for my outburst.’
However, Dylan said he was hoping that as the first amputee to take part in the series that he has proven to other amputees that they can do the same if they want to.
‘The whole idea of this thing was when I saw the advert was that this would be a good way to do it. I wondered how many amputees had seen that advert and thought ‘How can I do that?’ Hopefully, along with all the madness, I’ve shown that I can give it a go.’

TOM
AGE: 21
PROFESSION: Butcher
FROM: Somerset
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO GET NOMINATED FOR? ‘I think I might potentially offend some people. My mouth moves faster than my brain.’
TRISH
AGE: 33
PROFESSION: Stay-at-home mum
FROM: Luton
WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH THE PRIZE MONEY IF YOU WON? ‘I think my first priority is to sort out my housing situation. The housing crisis is just ridiculous and my housing situation has been unstable. It brings me a lot of mum guilt because I’ve got a young child. It’s my biggest incentive and motivation to win.’
JORDAN
AGE: 25
PROFESSION: Lawyer
FROM: Scunthorpe
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO GET NOMINATED FOR? ‘Being cantankerous and acting as if I don’t want to be there even if I do in my heart. They might nominate me for being disengaged perhaps or not paying everyone an equal amount of attention. They may feel left out but I can’t help that.’
NOKY
AGE: 26
PROFESSION: Banker
FROM: Derby
WHAT MADE YOU APPLY TO BECOME A BIG BROTHER HOUSEMATE? ‘I love challenges. I’ve had so many amazing times in my life, like going to Miss Universe as Miss Great Britain. I like to do something different and I think this is the next challenge I want to conquer. I want to show people what pageant girls are really like and disprove a lot of stereotypes around them. I also show what it’s like being a woman who’s worked in male- dominated fields. I want to show that women are capable of doing anything they want.’
YINRUN
AGE: 25
PROFESSION: Customer support agent
FROM: Harrogate
WHAT PART OF THE EXPERIENCE ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO? ‘I’m most excited about being surrounded by so many people from different walks of life. I don’t think I will ever live in a house again with so many different kinds of people. I’m from China and I think it will help me be more immersed in British culture.’
CHANELLE
AGE: 29
PROFESSION: Dental therapist
FROM: Llanelli
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO BE NOMINATED FOR? ‘Probably just for being annoying. In Wales, we have this saying, “I’ll do it now in a minute.” So like, if I went to make food and I left a dish on the side, I have all good intentions of washing it but I’d be like, “I’ll do it now in a minute,” and it might be three hours later before I do it. So probably for silly stuff like that.’
MATTY
AGE: 24
PROFESSION: Doctor
FROM: Isle Of Man
HOW WOULD YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? ‘They would say I’m quite like a lucky person or someone who really wants to experience life to its fullest and do everything that it has to offer. Someone who is kind and fun and doesn’t take life too seriously.’
HENRY
AGE: 25
PROFESSION: Food writer
FROM: Cotswolds
HOW WOULD YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? ‘I think they would say I’m particularly sociable and very chatty. I mean, I’ll be honest, my parents would definitely say I’m a bit of a snob but I take it as a compliment. I think it means you’ve got high standards and good taste. They’d say I was quite a peculiar child.’
OLIVIA
AGE: 23
PROFESSION: Dancer
FROM: Glasgow
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO GET NOMINATED FOR? ‘I think when people are in that hangry state, that’s when I’ll wind people up and grind their gears. I think they’ll nominate me for being full on, and for my brutal honesty and oversharing of opinions.’
