Celebrity Big Brother in new ‘fix’ row as fans accuse producers of ‘having favourites’ after shock nominations
CELEBRITY Big Brother found itself embroiled in a new fix row after fans accused the producers of having favourites.
Viewers claimed that ITV had been "meddling" to keep one star in the famous pad.
Big Brother tasked all housemates to nominate the celebrity they want to see up for eviction.
In a Big Brother twist, Sharon received a 'killer nomination,' granting her the power to choose one housemate to face eviction regardless of how many other votes they'd receive. Sharon selected Gary Goldsmith.
All housemates were then tasked with nominating who they'd like to see join Gary.
Lauren Simon received the most nominations from her fellow housemates with six nominations.

Whilst Zeze Millz closely followed with five.
Now, Gary and the most-nominated housemate, Lauren, are up for eviction, while the second most-nominated, Zeze, escaped the vote.
Fans flocked to X, formerly known as Twitter, to express their frustration with ITV bosses.
One user tweeted: "@itv who you got controlling big brother. Embarrassing. Channel 4 and channel 5 didn’t meddle and have favourites."
Another added: "Shouldn’t it be the top two plus Gary."
A third penned: "Zeze should have been up smh."
A fourth wrote: "Bloody FIX ZEZE SHOULD BE IN THAT LINE UP."
Bradley Riches from Heartstopper received only one vote, the fewest among the contestants.
According to Betfair, Love Island's Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu is 3/1 as an early front runner after her huge success on Love Island and also across the pond on The Traitors.
Ekin is followed by Bradley and Corrie actor Colson Smith.
