Big Brother: Maysoon quits, odds favour Mohamed for eviction

This season of Big Brother is sure keeping the U.K. viewers on the edge, yesterday contestant Maysoon Shaladi quit the show unexpectedly. Maysoon, who entered the Big Brother house just a month ago along with Sara Folino and Belinda Harris-Reid (evicted), simply walked out off the show last night. The Big Brother fans were told of her decision last night and Channel 4 is promising a refund to those who voted for Maysoon. She was scheduled for an eviction vote later today, along with eight other contestants.

Initially only Dale Howard and Luke Marsden were up for eviction from the Big Brother House, but Channel 4 was forced to delay the opening of voting lines for tomorrow's eviction, after housemates were found to be using a code based on football teams to talk about nominations. Shaladi, Newmark, Rice, Kasisopa, Pilkington, Darnell Swallow and Mohamed were found guilty of breaking the rule about not talking about nominations and were put up for eviction, as well. Looking at the odds on Big Brother, posted by the British online bookmaker Bet 365, Mohamed is the most likely contestant to be evicted. With the bookie, Mohamed holds the underdog odds 66/1 on winning BB8, while Kathreya is still the ultimate favourite with odds 5/2.
