Big Brother ratings hold up despite apparent eviction spoiler

Sunday’s Big Brother live eviction show maintained its ratings from last Sunday despite the network accidentally airing a promo about the evicted housemate a few hours before the show.

Nine has been accused by some fans of rigging the result after it played the supposed spoiler of house-mate George’s eviction while voting was still going on.

However Nine maintains it produced a different clip for each housemate up for eviction, and it was coincidence the promo that was accidental played was George’s, which proved to be correct.

The show rate 1.013m total viewers, making it the ninth most watched show of Sunday, according to preliminary ratings from OzTam. it was fractionally down on last Sunday’s 1.02m.
