From the press association, as you cant get on BB website for love nor money tonight:

Big Brother contestant Alexandra De-Gale has been thrown off the show for intimidating other housemates.

As a result the first eviction of the ninth series, due to take place on Friday, has been cancelled.

Channel 4 said that during her nomination for this week's eviction, De-Gale allegdly threatened her fellow housemates with punishment from "gangster friends".

Other housemates found her behaviour threatening, Channel 4 said.

Alexandra allegedly made the comment about gangsters while speaking to albino contestant Darnell, while a number of other housemates were in proximity.

According to Channel 4's transcript, while discussing the fact that she had been nominated, Alexandra told Darnell: "I'm not throwing water at anyone. It's bigger than that...personal offence is never forgotten, do you know what I mean?

"We are just inside the house. I've got a very, very, very, very, very strong team outside the house".

She added: "I just can't wait to see my mans and them and see what their plans are, who they got...I'm not talking about those mans, I'm talking about my gangster friends. They got some instructions to follow out."

She added later: "I get to go out, see everyone's friends, I get to see their family. I get to do the s*** that I wanna do. Pow, pow, pow."


I havent seen the live feed but it's shocking if she did say that, apart from BB kicking her out she should be facing criminal charges for threatening behaviour.

The Housemates Reaction.

News of Alexandra's departure is broken to the House...

Soon after 9.10pm this evening, Luke was summoned to the Diary Room and returned with a laminate which he read to the others who were gathered on the sofas.


"Big Brother would like to inform you that Alexandra has been removed from the House," read Luke, explaining that her intimidating behaviour was the reason.



After a short gasp, the Housemates applauded as they heard that this Friday's Eviction has now been cancelled.


"The evidence is there," said Mario. "It's unreasonable behaviour. That's it."


Earlier this evening Alexandra had been enjoying a rest in the Luxury Bedroom when she was summoned to the Diary Room.



"This is Big Brother. Would Alexandra please come to the Diary Room?"


"Loving your strict voice," Alexandra told Big Brother.


Dale, Darnell, Jennifer, Kathreya, Michael, Mohamed and Rex watched her walk through the Living Area and enter the Diary Room for the last time.



"Quite an authoritarian Big Brother tonight," observed Michael.


"Big Brother ain't playing this year," said Darnell. "If you say anything you ain't supposed to say, it's 'goodbye.'"


Goodbye Alexandra.



There will be no eviction this Friday, but there will still be a live show...

Alex is removed from Big Brother for repeated unacceptable behaviour...

Contestant Alexandra De-Gale has been removed from the Big Brother House for repeatedly breaking the programme's rules on conduct by behaving in an unacceptable and sometimes intimidating manner towards fellow housemates.


Alex was in discussion with Darnell in the living room shortly after 10.15pm yesterday evening (17th June), with a number of other housemates in proximity.

Discussing her nomination for this week's eviction, Alex was heard to make apparently intimidatory comments about her intentions on leaving the House. Shortly afterwards, Dennis, Rebecca and Rex discussed her comments in the garden and were clear that they found her behaviour to be threatening, a view that Rex repeated subsequently during a Diary Room discussion with Big Brother.

This incident follows a series of arguments involving Alex since the ninth series of Big Brother started on 5th June. She has twice been called to the diary room and reminded of the rules governing behaviour towards other housemates.

There has been a strong negative reaction from viewers to Alex's behaviour with Channel 4 having received a significant number of comments since launch.

Her latest remarks were not screened via the 'as live' streaming on E4 but were reported up to senior production staff. In consultation with executives at Channel 4 the decision was taken to remove Alex from the house on the grounds that she had repeatedly broken the programme's rules governing housemate behaviour, despite twice being reminded of her responsibilities.

Alex was called to the Diary Room at approximately 8pm on Wednesday 18th June to be informed of the decision and was removed from the House without further contact with other contestants. The remaining housemates were informed of Big Brother's decision at approximately 9.15pm.

Alex was one of two housemates nominated for eviction this week and as a result, in line with the terms and conditions covering phone voting on Big Brother, the latest eviction vote has been suspended.

Angela Jain, Head of E4 and Big Brother at Channel 4, said: "Alex has said her comments were not intended seriously and has apologised, but those comments will be widely interpreted as having been intended to intimidate. Big Brother has very clear rules about housemates conduct and that kind of behaviour is simply not acceptable.

Other housemates have said they found her comments to be threatening and we believe that is a reasonable conclusion for them to have reached given the way Alex has behaved previously. She had already been spoken to twice about her behaviour and, like all housemates, was clearly informed before entering the house that she faced eviction if she acted in an unacceptable manner."
