Elsewhere in the episode, Sam left the house where he was greeted by Will and AJ, who immediately explained to him that it was a fake eviction and he was going to a secret room to “live for the next few days” where he would be joined by some “ex-housemates”.
In shock and tears, Sam then joined Emily and Farida in the hidden room. “I’m in so much shock,” he said.
Once in the special room, Big Brother told the trio that they would be given special “spying duties”, saying: “You must watch without being seen and listen without being heard.”
Looking forward to tomorrow, Big Brother told the group they will get to pull the strings from behind the scenes and take control of a “very mischievous task”.
Big Brother airs on ITV2 and ITVX from Sundays through Fridays, followed each night by Big Brother: Late & Live.
