Notes

• ^Note 1 : Miroslav won immunity from the first eviction on Day 1 by being the first Housemate to enter the diary room. On Day 2, all Housemates, excluding Miroslav, voted to evict another Housemate.
• ^Note 2 : Over the course of Week 3, Housemates that were able to gain membership into the VB Fan Club were given immunity from eviction that week. Branislav was required to choose the first member of the Fan Club, however, in doing so he automatically faced the public vote. Branislav chose Đankarlo and more Housemates were chosen until only Edin, Maja, Nikola, & Veselina weren't chosen. They then faced the public vote alongside Branislav.
• ^Note 3 : As punishment for rule-breaking, Marko was banned from nominating and automatically faced the public vote.
• ^Note 4 : As punishment for not wearing her microphone on numerous occasions, Jelena was automatically nominated by Big Brother. As a new Housemate, Jadranka was the only Housemate able to nominate this week.
• ^Note 5 : This week, all Housemates automatically faced the public vote.
• ^Note 6 : As punishment for discussing nominations; Daliborka, Ena, & Marko were all banned from nominating.
• ^Note 7 : As new Housemates; Aleksandra, Sanja, & Sava were allowed to nominate, but could not be nominated by their fellow Housemates.
• ^Note 8 : As punishment for discussing nominations; Aleksandra, Nikola, Sanja, & Sava were all banned from nominating. As further punishment, Big Brother put Sanja and Sava up for eviction alongside Aleksandra, Jadranka, & Nikola. Aleksandra and Nikola would have also automatically faced the public vote if they had not already received the most nominations. This week also had a fake double eviction. The two Housemates with the most public vote would move into the Secret Garden alongside Maja who received the 2nd most votes of all the evicted Housemates to re-enter the House. Marko received the most votes and re-entered the House on Day 65 following the fake double eviction.
• ^Note 9 : On Day 68, Maja, Nikola & Sanja returned to the Main House from the Secret Garden. As Maja and Marko had only just returned, they could not be nominated by their fellow housemates but were allowed to be nominated.
• ^Note 10 : Ivan won a memory task after nominations had taken place for the week. For winning the task, he received immunity. Had he not received immunity, himself and Jadranka would've faced the public vote.
• ^Note 11 : This week, as a punishment, Sava had to clean the whole House. However, he gave up before finishing the punishment. The other Housemates then finished the cleaning without permission from Big Brother. As further punishment, all Housemates, except for Sava, faced the public vote this week.
• ^Note 12 : As punishment for discussing nominations, Nikola was banned from nominating.
• ^Note 13 : For the final week, the public was voting to win, rather than evict. There was a double eviction on Day 107 where Jadranka and Daliborka were evicted after receiving the fewest votes. This left Aleksandra, Dragana, Edin, & Ivan as the four finalists.
