When Big Brother announced that he was going to be giving housemates and SA viewers double the trouble for this season, he was not kidding at all!

Last night Big Brother shocked us all when he revealed a shocking twist to the game that left us all gobsmacked. After host, Lungile Radu had completed with the week's recap and revealed that there would be no evictions, an unexpected turn of events occurred. Big Brother suddenly made a ring into the house whilst the housemates were celebrating their non-eviction night.

The ring came and when it did the housemates dashed toward the phone only to be beaten to the telephone by the fast moving Ex, once again! Ex would soon either regret answering the phone or become pleased with his fast moves.

Biggie’s instruction to Ex was simple. Take your partner Lebo and leave the house through the Big Brother doors. The duo complied and the rest of the Housemates were left wondering as to what would happen next.

They didn’t have long to wait and neither did audiences after a performance by Duncan and DJ Ngane, Lebo and Ex made their way onto stage where Lungile showed them a briefcase full of money and made them a dramatic offer take the money and leave the show. Or leave the money and take their chances in the game. They had to make the choice as a couple. Yes indeed, what a tough choice and one which promptly got even harder when Lungile revealed the briefcase contained

R 100 000! With ninety seconds to choose, it was decision time. Lebo wanted to leave, Ex wanted to stay, so she tried to convince him, even getting the audience involved, as the clock counted down.  Ex confirmed the choice to take the money to Lungsta and then broke down in tears as Lebo tried to console him. But the deal was done and pretty soon, the twosome were smiling and exited the stage and the show!

And just like that Ex and Lebo were no more. Big Brother sure did pull a fast one on us, we can only wait in baited breath and see what Biggie has up his sleeves this week.
