A technical failure prevents the winner of the reality show from being known
Nobody could believe it. After three months of coexistence, tests, nominations and expulsions, the grand finale of Big Brother Duo was left without an outcome. The vote was so close that the organization decided to extend it until Sunday, leaving the two finalists, Asraf and Lucía, in a limbo of uncertainty. The presenter, Marta Flich, had to break the most difficult news of her career: there was no winner.
It all started when Marta Flich announced the name of the third place finisher, which was Manuel, to the surprise of many. From that moment on, a new round of voting was opened to choose the winner between Asraf and Lucía, who were nervous and excited. However, what no one expected was that the application of the program would collapse due to the flood of votes it received. «There are so many of you voting that you can’t imagine it. “The app has become saturated again and, shortly, they will tell me if we have to take exceptional measures for the first time in the history of the program,” she said then.
Marta Flich apologizes and announces a special gala for Sunday
Minutes passed and the situation was not resolved. Marta Flich spoke again to communicate the most controversial decision of the night: there would not be a winner until Sunday. «I have to give you some news. This is a historic and very close final, you just have to look at the latest percentages. It is a massive vote that has overwhelmed us, the app has definitively collapsed,” she explained. Visibly affected and aware of the criticism she would receive, Marta Flich asked for forgiveness: «Thank you very much. We know that it is a technical failure and that you have not been able to vote, what we want is for the audience to choose the winner. “Every vote counts and, that is why, we have made this extraordinary decision.”
The two finalists, Asraf and Lucía, were left speechless and with a look of disbelief. They didn’t know how to react to the situation. The presenter hugged them and told them that they had to wait until Sunday to find out who won the prize. This is how the grand finale of Big Brother Duo ended, without a winner and with a lot of controversy.
The audience is outraged and attacks the organization of the program
The decision of the Big Brother Duo organization did not sit well with the audience, who took to social media to express their anger and disappointment. Harsh messages and criticisms were written against the show, accusing it of rigging the vote and disrespecting viewers. “I feel cheated, that the old Big Brother returns,” said one of the most repeated comments.
Now we will have to see if all this discomfort is reflected in the audience on Sunday, when it will finally be known which of the two takes the Big Brother Duo crown. Will it be Asraf or Lucia? There will be surprises? Has the app been recovered? Don’t miss the (second) grand finale of Big Brother Duo, on Sunday at 10:00 p.m. on Telecinco.
