Celebrity Big Brother 2017: James earns eternal immunity as Speidi face eternal nomination

The housemates were taken to the Task Room and told by Big Brother that they must each nominate one star to be immune from the public vote.

It was clear to see that the Game of Thrones star was popular with his housemates as he was the lucky celebrity who won immunity.

Speaking about their decision to save him, the housemates showed affection for the actor as they called him "a rock" and helped keep them calm throughout all of the madness.

Coleen Nolan explained: "He's been my rock in the house when the whole world is falling apart."

While Jamie O'Hara added: "He's been there for me right from the start. He takes me out of this pressure cooker and I love chatting to him about everything."

And, Stacy Francis simply said: "I love him. He is in my heart now and I love him so much."

But, that wasn't the only surprise in store for the housemates. James was then asked to nominate one celebrity to be given eternal nomination.

He was clearly devastated to be given the task and appeared to agonise over his decision.
