The latest hot gossip that is going on in the Big Brother house.
Who's hot and who's not! Who's in and who's out! What tasks has BB set them! Who's been talking about who!
Who is up for nomination this week? It's 8:00am. No one is up but the sound is back. At 8:30 am Craig gets up. He checks the lighter on top of the boiler. I think he may have put some cigarettes there as well. Craig made a bed on the lawn and went back to sleep. He has the Head Hunter board beside him.
At 1:25pm, the klaxon goes off. Caroline's head appears above the fence. Craig adds a head to the board.
Anna gets up. Anna said, 'The fridge is minging'.
At 11:00am, Tom gets up. Tom is trying to remember his part of the task, while cleaning his teeth.
Anna and Mel are talking about films.
At 1:50pm. Tom asked Mel to pluck his eyebrows. Anna said, 'That'll be good TV for your mates'.
Some quizzes Tom about the jobs he's had.
Anna was talking about a scene in the video she made for BB. Anna said, 'It took about 15 takes to get a shot of me on that skateboard'.
Craig is practising the task.
Anna is in the garden singing, 'I need to shave my legs again all day long'.
Mel said to Claire, 'It seems strange in here. Very quiet because a lot of the louder people have gone'. Claire said, 'You are the people that nominated them. I don't believe you miss them'. Mel said, 'I don't miss them. It just makes you feel you want to go home. This has been the longest 5 weeks of my whole life'. Claire then said, 'If you were nominated, do you think you would want to stay?' Mel said, 'Some people wanted to stay, some people wanted to go. I'd want to go'.
1:00pm. Nominations are announced. Someone said, 'It's your turn next week Mel'. Tom said, 'You must be sleeping with the right people'.
Mel tries to work out how the votes were cast. She said, 'It must have went 3, 2, 2, 2, 1. I must have got one vote'. Darren said, 'So, you know you've got one vote'. Craig then said to Mel, 'How does it feel not to be nominated?' Mel said, 'Sad'. They begin discussing who of their family members will be down on Friday.
Darren spends ages talking to Anna about nominations. During the discussion he said, 'If Nick were here, he would have told Tom to do a plea'. Anna was called to the Diary Room. Anna said, 'They want to give me a break from Darren'.
They start practising their task again.
Craig goes to see BB. He wants to know if they can write the names down for the Head Hunt before the board is taken away. BB said, 'No. It is a test of memory. You can't write it down at all'.
Someone said to Darren, 'What song do you want if you are evicted on Friday?' He said, 'Save Tonight by Eagle Eye Cherry'. Darren said to Anna, 'What's yours?' Anna said, 'Coombya'.
Someone said to Darren, 'Where did you get your kids names from?' Darren said, 'They are mostly named after family members'.
The housemates are called to the boys bedroom. The vet is in the garden checking the chickens. Whilst in the boys room, Craig and Claire take to the double bed. They are whispering and giggling under the duvet. You can hardly catch a word of what they are talking about. Though Claire did ask Craig why Mel and Tom hadn't got it on yet.
3:45pm. The chickens are returned to the coop.
It's a very quiet afternoon. The housemates are just reading and sleeping. They also have a little discussion about films and TV programmes.
6:00pm and they are practising the task.
Anna said to Darren, 'If I go, I will have to take my guitar with me'. Darren said, 'Oh no!' Tom said to Darren, 'You will have to make a plea for Anna. She can't go, she'll take the guitar'.
Darren and Mel are checking the chickens. Darren said, 'The chickens are attacking each other. The ones that were returned are attacking the others'. One pecked Mel and she said, 'I hate chickens'. Darren started talking to the camera, 'That's the crazy one. Keep an eye on him'.
7:30pm. BB announced, 'You will have to give the Head Hunter board back in half an hour'. Someone said, 'We have only got 99 heads. You will have to give us another one within the next half hour'. Mel said, 'Maybe we've missed one'. Anna said, 'I'm sure they said 9:00pm. I'll go and see Big Brother'. Anna returned and said, 'Big Brother apologises. It's 9:00pm we have to hand it back. We still have an hour and a half left'.
8:30pm. Mel and Darren are preparing the evening meal. Anna is playing the guitar. Mel said to Claire, 'What things do you normally eat?' Claire said, 'Chips'
9:00pm. The klaxon goes off and the last head appears above the fence.
9:30pm. Claire went out to water the lawn. She came back in and said, 'I know I'm a dumb dumb but, I can't get the hose to work'. Craig sorted it out for her.
Anna is playing slow music on the guitar. Anna said, 'I'm playing sleepy music'. Darren said, 'Yeah! Nomination music'.
10:15pm. They are playing cards.
11:45pm. Anna goes to bed.
Mel and Anna are chatting away in the bedroom. The sound quality was foul for the rest of the night. There was an awful hissing on the audio feed and voices were very muffled. I can only pick out odd bits of their conversation. They were talking about nominations. Anna said, 'I'm quite glad now. I'm so relaxed'.
Craig, Claire and Tom are up playing cards.
Mel said to Anna, 'Do you want to go?' Anna said, 'No. I'd like to stay. I'd like to go. Going back into reality is scarey. I'm getting paranoid. Kind of childish'. Mel said, 'Nick would be having kittens'. Mel said, 'I'm feeling guilty and jealous'. Anna said, 'It's an adrenalin rush'. Anna went on to say something about Craig. I couldn't catch it. Mel said, 'Part of me expected to be called'. Anna said, 'Yeah!' Mel said, 'People care about people in a strange way in here'. Anna said, 'Doing well. As well as anyone can do'.
12:15am. Mel and Anna are reading books in bed. 1:00am. Mel made a drink for herself and Anna.
Mel said, 'I'm worried that my boyfriend won't be there when I get out. I don't want to lose him altogether. I really love him'. Anna said, 'We can talk about it tomorrow'.
Anna said, 'The nominations at the end will be more important than it's ever been'.
Anna and Mel are saying something about Claire and Craig still being up. Mel said to Anna, 'That story about Claire's boyfriend was weird last night'. Anna said, 'Yeah!'
They are talking about people in the house but, you can't hear what they are saying. Anna said, 'There are only a handful of people that I would meet up with afterwards. I only have a couple of friends and I really care for them'.
At 3:45am. Claire goes to the bathroom and recovers the cigarettes and ligher and places them somewhere else.
At 4:35am. Craig and Claire head for bed. They kiss each other on the lips.
