Celebrity Big Brother: The Eviction Process
January 6, 2005, 4:19:50 The celebrities will be subject to the Big Brother eviction process, with a number of evictions taking place during their two-week stay.

At the end of the series viewers will then vote for the winner.



Voluntary/ Involuntary Departure
If a housemate wants to leave they must first report to the Diary Room and give their reasons for leaving.
Big Brother may ask a housemate to leave the house if they behave inappropriately, for example, if they engage in violent or abusive behaviour, or damage the house or its contents. Housemates leaving voluntarily or being asked to leave may be replaced at Big Brother’s discretion.


Evictions
Celebrity housemates will be called to the Diary Room to nominate fellow housemates for eviction. Any housemate refusing to make a nomination or failing to provide Big Brother with a satisfactory reason for their nomination will receive a formal warning.

Housemates are not allowed to discuss their nominations with other house members or to try to influence anyone else’s nominations. The Diary Room nominations will not be streamed live on the website or E4.

The results of the nominations process will be announced to the participants at Big Brother’s discretion and will be included in the Channel 4 highlights show the following evening. The housemates who receive the most nomination votes at this stage are then subject to the public vote, conducted via telephone, text message and interactive TV.

Viewers and housemates will only find out who is to be evicted during Channel 4’s live evening eviction shows, presented by Davina McCall, and the evicted housemate will leave during the show. At the last stage of the series viewers will be asked to vote for who should be the winner of Celebrity Big Brother.

Big Brother reserves the right to change the frequency, times and details of nominations and evictions at any time.

I wonder if this depends on who is doing it as in BB5?
