Day 23
12.03pm
In the Lounge Jonas tells Stephanie that "everyone is amazing". Stephanie agrees and then goes on to talk about how much of a "sweet, funny time" she's had with Nicola, and refers to her as "a darling".
Meanwhile in the Diary Room Nicola is talking about Stephanie and describes her as being her "best friend" in the House and like a "mummy figure". She also tells Big Brother that Stephanie is teaching her how to act posh, by sitting properly and lowering her voice. Big Brother asks if she will talk posh and Nicola attempts a rather unconvincing posh voice saying "hello Big Brother how are you today" but Big Brother isn't convinced, and asks her to try again, so Nicola replies, "Big Brother, I am talking as posh as I can".
12.33pm
Big Brother calls Ivana to the Diary Room and informs her that there is "exciting news" and explains that she has been nominated for "best business woman in a reality TV show" on the Scandinavian TV show "Kugel Fresh". Furthermore, there will be a live link up to the Kugel Fresh studio later in the day, where if she wins, Ivana will be asked to give an acceptance speech in English, then German, then Russian.
As Ivana is in the Diary Room, Big Brother gathers the rest of the Housemates in the Lounge and informs them of Ivana's award but tells them that "this is a completely fake award. In order to complete and pass the task, Housemates must convince Ivana the award is genuine. If Ivana realises the award is fake, the task will be failed. If Housemates are successful, Big Brother will throw a glamorous awards show party for the House".
Dane says to Jonas "you're going to be the best for this - it's Scandinavian." The other Housemates agree and tell Jonas that Ivana will no doubt ask him all about the show and that he should say he knows of it. Dane says that Jonas should say that ABBA won it.
Back in the Diary Room Big Brother asks Ivana what she might say in her acceptance speech to which Ivana gives an example in Russian. Big Brother then comments that "it sounds like you are a veteran".
Ivana returns to the house and tells the Housemates about the nomination. She asks Jonas if he knows 'Kugel Fresh' and Jonas cautiously says "it sounds very familiarβ¦.it's an award right?" and then more convincingly states "it is held in the same location as the Grammy awards". Vinnie then proposes "we should help you write your speech." Ivana walks off and comments, "how did I get into this mess?"
1.41pm
Ivana has been getting ready for a live link up with the Kugel Fresh studio for 17 minutes.
At the Dining table Stephanie comments that "there is a lot of stress now" and Alex reveals he is thinking about the "potential boos" when he exits the house but says there are more important things in the world like "the soldiers fighting in wars and the kids in famine".
Ivana emerges from the Bathroom after getting ready and Vinnie questions "are you going to wear black for the awards? Ivana reveals she "would have worn an evening gown" but "it is in storage". Stephanie remarks that black is a slimming colour and "can make you look 15 pounds lighter", to which Vinnie quips "there is a difference between your figures" and warns Ivana "don't eat too much or it may show on the camera." Dane then rubs it in further by asking Ivana if she is going to get changed to which Alex says "are you getting nasty lessons from Vinnie?" and then Nicola quips, "we should call him mini-Vinnie"
2.01pm
In the Bathroom Ivana interrogates Jonas about Kugel Fresh asking him "what is the show?" Jonas tells her he has heard the name and knows that they have an awards ceremony held in Stockholm "with maybe 1000 people watching". He also adds that he received an award at the same venue in 2007.
Ivana and Jonas then go into the Bedroom, Jonas asks when she will record the speech and that it would best to try and keep it simple. Ivana goes into the toilet and then Jonas whispers to Dane, "it's going to be so funny when she realises the award is fake. She's going to feel so stupid."
3.14pm
While Ivana gets ready for her live link up with Kugel Fresh, the rest of the housemates have been gathered in the lounge.
Vinnie suggests that "whatever way this goes, she won't be amused".
The live link to the Kugel Fresh studio begins and despite Ivana facing tough competition from 'Martha Stewart's Jailhouse Rocks' and 'Tamara Melon's Toe-Jam', she prevails as the winner and is presented with the trophy. Ivana makes her acceptance speech giving the V for victory sign to the cameras and says she is "deeply honoured and overwhelmed."
Whilst Ivana continues her speech, Big Brother informs the rest of the housemates about the second part of their task - "All housemates must firstly tell Ivana that her award looks stupid. At least three Housemates must then drink from the award. Finally, one or more Housemates must smash the award."
Back in the Diary Room after receiving the award Ivana tells Big Brother she was surprised to beat such esteemed opponents and jokes that Martha Stewart will "probably be unhappy camper right now".
Ivana rejoins the house and jubilantly tells the housemates she won and says "Martha Stewart will be fuming". The housemates gather around Ivana and look at the trophy. Stephanie takes it from her and drops it on the floor, smashing it and the room falls briefly silent, before a couple of "oh my gods". Ivana points out the glass was fragile and housemates proceed to criticise the trophy with Nicola commenting "it wasn't very nice", and Dane stating "it looked plastic" and "pretty cheap". Vinnie runs to the bathroom to tell Alex "Steph ******* broke it". So, in the Kitchen, Vinnie, Dane, Nicola and Stephanie plan how to drink from the trophy and decide to tell Ivana it is a tradition that happens when a team wins the FA Cup for good luck. They come up with the idea of using a section of the (sugar) glass like a funnel and back in the Bedroom, Jonas, Dane and Nicola all drink from it.
3.41pm
It's been 20 minutes since Ivana won her Best business woman in reality TV award and 7 minutes since Stephanie broke the award.
Vinnie comments that he doesn't think Stephanie is upset, Nicola tells Ivana that Stephanie has gone into the Diary Room and is about to cry.
In the Diary Room Stephanie is cryingβ¦. With laughter. She hysterically explains to Big Brother that all she was doing was "feeling it out" and didn't realise it was sugar glass. Big Brother replies "Big Brother doesn't believe you feel terrible" to which Stephanie breaks into hysterical laughter again.
In the Bedroom the Housemates wonder whether Stephanie dropped the trophy on purpose, and Alex says "I think she did". But Ivana urges the other housemates to not give Stephanie a hard time about as "she's in tears".
Back in the Diary Room, where Stephanie is still laughing, Big Brother suggests that she composes herself before talking to Ivana again and then having calmed down, Stephanie goes back to the house, where Nicola observes that she looks upset. Ivana goes to console Stephanie, giving her a hug and tells her to stop crying and that the award was "ugly" anyway and she shouldn't feel bad and says "S**t happens". Clearly trying not to break into laughter, Stephanie goes into the Bedroom, leaving Ivana in the Kitchen, tidying up the broken fragments of her award.
5.13pm
Big Brother gathers the housemates on the sofas for the result of today's task and informs Ivana that the award was fake. Ivana then claims "I knew from the beginning but then Big Brother convinced me" and then goes on to add "I thought it was a prank at the beginning".
8.33pm
After passing the task Big Brother has thrown an awards party for the House.
Dressed in black tie the housemates sit drinking champagne and eating canapΓs. Housemates must present awards to each other. Alex must choose a bitchiest housemate. He chooses Stephanie with 'bitchiest housemate', Dane gives 'least famous' to Jonas, Ivana awards Vinnie 'most famous', Jonas deems Nicola 'most attractive', Nicola judges Alex 'least intelligent', Stephanie predicts 'most likely winner' to be Vinnie, and Vinnie bestows upon Alex the 'greediest housemate' sash.
9.21pm
Housemates have been enjoying their awards party for the past 48 minutes
Vinnie asks Alex "have you got a suit like that at home⦠is it from when you worked on the door" and then continues to wind Alex up observing that Alex has got some fake tan on his collar. Alex then calls Vinnie an "a*se hole". Vinnie then suggests that Alex should "lie on the bed naked" and let Jonas give him a spray tan. Alex then jokes that he and Jonas are no longer friends because Jonas presented Nicola with 'the most attractive housemate' award.
9.47pm
As part of their awards party, each housemate was given a goody bag that contained moisturisers, hair products and spray tan.
In the Bathroom, Jonas is giving Alex a spray tan, Alex is naked but for a strategically held towel. Jonas says "this is bizarre" and asks "what you your girlfriend say?" Alex encourages him and jokes "spray my ass, bitch".
In the Bedroom Nicola, referring to Alex and Jonas, points out that "it is so sweet that them two are best friends" and Vinnie jokes that they "can hold hands when they get evicted".
Back in the Bathroom Alex asks how the tan is looking and despite there being areas which are decidedly patchy, Jonas says that "the front looks fine". Nicola then takes over spray duties and, asking him to "bend over", attempts to cover the white patches around Alex's bum, leaving drips of tan running down the back of Alex's legs. Alex then asks if his face needs more and Jonas enthusiastically sprays a copious amount of tan onto Alex's face and Vinnie, laughing along with the other housemates says "he is going to get slaughtered!" Alex is only wearing a pair of gloves and Dane says that "he is going to have white hands."
The housemates then go into the Bedroom and Nicola asks Alex "did you do your winky?" and Alex proceeds to lift up the elastic of his pants and gives his nether regions a quick spray. Nicola then suggests that he "lift it up" so he "can get underneath"
12.03pm
In the Lounge Jonas tells Stephanie that "everyone is amazing". Stephanie agrees and then goes on to talk about how much of a "sweet, funny time" she's had with Nicola, and refers to her as "a darling".
