Ryan Ruckledge is the eighth person to be evicted from Big Brother as Annihilation Week claims its final victim
Housemates were forced to evict one of their own in devious plot twist
RYAN Ruckledge has become the latest housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother house.
The X-Factor reject is the eight housemate to be evicted overall, and the third housemate to be booted as part of the twisted Annihilation Week.
They were dealt a double blow as on top of being one of the three housemates to receive the lowest amount of public votes, their eviction was chosen by their fellow competitors in the house.
Jayne Connery was given the deciding the vote after the rest of house split 50/50 between getting rid of Laura or getting rid of Ryan.
In a shock twist for the show, Emma Willis entered the house in order to conduct the eviction in person.
The eviction marks the end of a tough week for the contestants, as Big Brother launched 'Annihilation Week' to cut down the amount of people living in the Elstree compound.
Stylish Ryan then left the house dressed in a black bin bag.
When Emma mentioned how great Annihilation Week was he replied: "It's not been brilliant for me!"
He later said: "I've had an experience that I have never even wished for."
Ryan enjoyed an in-house romance with Irish man Hughie Maughan.
Blushing, he added: "He's made my experience. I can't wait to see him by himself once he's out."
LATEST FROM BIG BROTHER
In the first task of the week, the group were forced to sit on a table and make a group decision on who would be evicted.
After a round table vote, the majority voted for multi-millionaire Chelsea Singh, and he was evicted on Monday.
On Wednesday, the housemates were given the choice to take £20,000 from the final prize fund if they hit a button placed in front of them - but they had to choose a housemate to evict in exchange.
Viewers and housemates alike were shocked as good guy Jason Burrill turned nasty and was the first to smack the buzzer - then twisted the knife as he voted the popular Lateysha Grace out.
Ryan said: "She was a firm favourite to win."
He added: "He has the right to do whatever he wants but I think it came as such a shock, there was no apparent hatred and he just brings it up when he needs to.
"He knows what he's doing and he don't want to lose. He's very calculated."
It left him in bad favour with the remaining housemates for his choice, which he initially said he did because he thought she was going to win.
Journalist Andy West was the only member of the house who knew they were safe after being given immunity in one of the tasks.
As well as the sudden evictions, the housemates lost a further £10,000 when they had to decided whether to be rich or poor in the compound.
Poor housemates lived off basic rations and slept in rags with no hot water, but rich housemates got a £5k cut of the final prize money as well as the chance to live in the lap of luxury.
Alex Cannon, Ryan Ruckledge and Jackson Blyton all chose to live rich, but Ryan became a 'poor' housemate after Big Brother informed Jackson he had to take over either Alex or Ryan's place.
The original prize money of £100,000 now stands at £70,000 as a result of the weeks events.
