channel 5 are a very shady broadcaster. I relly cant trust anything they are about. theit heavy manipulation of votes on Big Brothers Final week was atrocious. The public who had spent their money for other house guests, for over 10 weeks all of a sudden did not stand a chance due to this very abrubt and sudden bias editing for the lady helen who we had been encouraged from the begining to view as a villian and channel 5 edited her to look like she was bullying and controlling to get most of the UK in a frenzy of dislike for this woman and it seemed they apparently panicked on the last week when they decided they wanted her as their winner as she would be better for channel 5 as a brand for future magazine and channel 5 appearences owned by mr Richard Desmond whom i believe ms helen wood has personal connection with. Ultimately i am happy channel 5 are being investigated as i find them to be a very greedy, manipulative and generally shoddy tv broadcaster who alwasy seem to hold their viewing audience with utter contempt and a complete dis-repect and especially on the show Bbbots where the public are made to feel they are gatecrashing a Private Party for the presenters, panel, and paid audience members...but the Viewers are treated with such disrespect with presenters often saying to the cameras phrases such as 'if you dont like it, switch off and dont watch it' Put up and Shut up is the attitude. I feel i have never ever been treated by the way this channel treats its viewers by any other broadcaster and i am all for diversity and progress but channel 5 can be downright disturbing and dismissive of its viewers on a nightly basis. I applaud Channel 4 and The BBC for the everyday level of decency and respect they show to the end viewer and always feel a strong level of trust with these broadcasters, trust that they welcome viewer feedback and act on this feedback where applicable. I have never felt any trust or comfort when sitting down to watch Channel 5 who leave

as someone who works with young people this was deeply upsetting to see a bully triumph, its giving the wrong message to especially disadvantaged young people.

If fraud is proved — and it certainly looks like some sort of deception took place – channel 5 sould also be required to refund every voter.

I was so pleased to find this petition! I have been an avid fan of a Big Brother since the very first one. I usually am not too bothered who wins. Sometimes I am a bit disappointed if my favourite doesn't win, or I may just be surprised at who wins. But this was different! I felt so angry that I couldn't sleep that night! The winner, Helen was so vile

In a "game show" with a money prize it was not a level playing field. Viewers were manipulated. They were asked to vote for a power housemate at one stage (power housemate is the one to decide who is nominated for eviction) money was spent to make Ashleigh powerhousemate to save her from eviction. The producers then engineered a "twist" so the nominated housemates could choose HER to join them and be up for eviction. The rules of this game are not clear and defined. Housemates we have voted out of the show, reappear for tasks too. The editing in the final weeks of the show have been heavily biased in making the winner seem a "reformed character". She was chosen for the secret room with no involvement by the public. Danielle was evicted by the housemates, as was Marlon. The producers seem to make it up as they go along week by week to engineer the result they desire.

Channel 5 clearly condons bullying on TV by crowning a bully the winner of bbuk 2014 when she should have been removed from the house. It was difficult to watch as a viewer and even when the public complained about it, nothing was done. I wonder what the kids will learn from this, obviously "that bullying is acceptable"

Too much going on 'behind closed doors'. The public deserve more accountability.

oh dear this is where we are right now? the vile bullying person that we remember from school - or maybe the workplace (her prostitution is distasteful but irrelevant) wins a popularity contest? Not only does that win give her the seal of approval from the nation but £100k. I felt physically sick on Friday when she won. Often I feel we are all guilty of seeing things we deem unfair but don't act upon because we think our opinions won't change anything. Please act upon this and add your signature to this petition and let's change this decision - it surely was not just or fair!

The fact that a real bully has won a reality show based on her real behaviour is truly agonizing and astonishing.

I am disgusted by BB that Helen was warned about her aggressive behaviour 14 times in the first two days but was not given the boot. It was so blatantly manipulated by BB to keep her in the house that it's become a joke. Disgraceful !!!
