Alex Cannon and Sam Giffen have been evicted from the Big Brother house just two days before the final.

The housemates, who thought that they had made it all the way, were told to leave the house in a shock twist on Sunday.

Aired on Monday night, the episode saw the pair told that they were the least popular housemates and that they had to vacate the property immediately.

During Big Brother’s Twisted Carnival party, in which the contestants enjoyed a day of fun and games, Cannon and Giffen were told to take a seat in Zoltar the Fortune Teller’s chair.

In a major shock, Big Brother revealed that the public had been secretly voting over the weekend to evict the least popular housemates ahead of Tuesday’s live final.

Cannon and Giffen were then told that they were the least popular and that they had to say their goodbyes and head to the diary room immediately.

Speaking to Big Brother, Cannon said: “Devastated. I don’t get it... I had a feeling something was going to go down. Someone was going to get it and it was us.

“I just wanted to know we made it to the final and share that with everyone else.”

Giffen said: “I’m gutted. I’m ready for home though. I’m ready to get out of this absolute mad house, but devastated I couldn’t get to the final.”

The pair then left out of the diary rooms left door, with no crowd or Emma Willis to meet them.

Andy West, Jason Burrill, Evelyn Ellis, Hughie Maughan, Jayne Connery and Jackson Blyton are now the final six housemates.

The live Big Brother final will take place on Tuesday at 9pm.
