On Day 11, when Power Housemate Chris was choosing his next nomination, he narrowed his decision down to Ash and Kimberly. To find out who was Chris' biggest threat in the house, a poll was posted on the official Big Brother app. As Ash topped the poll, Chris decided to choose him as his next nomination therefore Ash automatically faced the second public vote. [1] He survived eviction on Day 16 having received the fewest votes to evict along with Christopher, however he was nominated for the next public vote after Power Couple Matthew and Toya chose to void his nominations. [2] He survived eviction on Day 23 despite receiving the second highest number of votes to evict.

[6] Ash was nominated for the sixth eviction on Day 40, however in a shock twist it was revealed that the housemate who received the most nominations would be immediately evicted. This housemate was Marlon. [7] Shortly after the eviction it was announced that all of the remaining housemates except Helen would face the next public vote. However this was a lie and the decision was actually down to the three new housemates; Biannca, Pav and Zoe. [8] On Day 44, they decided to save Ash from eviction. [9] Ash was nominated for the fifth time on Day 47 after the Power Alliance; Ashleigh, Chris and Mark chose to nominate him. [10] In a nominations twist on Day 48, Ash saved himself from eviction and replaced himself with Ashleigh. [11] He survived the final set of nominations on Day 61 meaning he had secured himself a place in the final. [12] On Day 68, the Power returned to the house for the final time and was given to Ash and Christopher. For their first mission as Power Housemates, they had to choose questions for Big Brother to ask their fellow housemates in the Diary Room. [13] The same day, following Helen's "surprise eviction", Ash and Christopher were then given the power to evict one more housemate. They chose to evict Chris. [14] However, unbeknownst to them and the other housemates, Helen and Chris' eviction was fake and they were actually living next door in Big Brother's Spare Room watching the housemates' every move.
