Big Brother UK final crowns Rochelle Rackham amid boos
tvNov 6, 20261757
Rochelle Rackham was declared winner of Big Brother UK 2026, but the live studio audience booed her exit and loudly called for a recount. Viewers in the studio cheered runner-up Twinks Burnett, whose supporters were credited with 18.10% of a posted weighted-result simulation of Housemate popularity. ITV recorded Big Brother: The Reunion immediately after the live final and will air it tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX, promising further on-stage fallout. A headline report noted that fellow housemate Millie publicly took a brutal swipe at Rackham just hours after the final. Several posts blamed the result on perceived politics and accused the public of rewarding a contestant described as prejudiced, while others celebrated an all-female top three and praised specific housemates' interviews. Expect the reunion broadcast to be the next focal point for immediate reactions and any formal complaints about the final result.
