Day 22: Shopping Task 100

 

14 mins ago

This week's mysteriously-named Shopping Task, '100', requires housemates to score 100 points.

Over the next two days, Big Brother will set a number of challenges giving housemates chances to win points toward their total score. Housemates may also lose points by giving in to temptation. Big Brother loves testing housemates' discipline and concentration (*cue villainous laugh*).

This morning the housemates woke up to find an empty container in the living area. Each time they win a point, a red ball will drop into the container. Each time a point is lost, a ball will drop out of the container. The balls will be counted at the end of the Shopping Task.

If the housemates manage to get 100 points or more, they will pass this week’s Shopping Task and win a premium shopping budget. But if they have less than 100 points, they will fail this week’s Shopping Task and receive an economy shopping delivery.

Food affects the mood of the housemates; will they be living off chickpeas again next week? Check back soon to see how they fare.

As part of this week’s Big Brother 100 shopping task, Lydia and Deana will be given the chance to reveal who nominated.

 

In order to win a premium budget this week, the housemates must collect 100 points by completing a series of mini-tasks and challenges.

Later today, the two Housemates nominated this week will take it in turns to stand behind a plinth. They must guess three of the Housemates who nominated them.

The housemates they choose will take it in turns to stand in a gunge tank in the Garden. Deana and Lydia will gunge those housemates that they think are guilty of nominating them – Big Brother will then reveal whether or not they guessed correctly.

If the gunged Housemate did in fact nominate them, they will win points for the group. However, if they gunged an innocent Housemate, they will lose the points instead.

Lauren takes one for the team

 

3 hours ago

As if the last challenge wasn't difficult enough, this next challenge really pushed cigarette-less Lauren.

Big Brother invited Lauren into the very plush Big Brother Beauty Salon, where her sister waited for her. Lauren was faced with making a difficult decision.

Lauren could spend some valuable catching-up and have some beautification time with her sis, or she could forfeit that to save the team five points.

Lauren stood by the door, tearing up when Big Brother asked her to choose. She decided against spending some valuable, girlie pampering time and saved the housemates a total of five points.

Needless to say, Lauren is already fairly wound-up after the last 'cut out smoking' challenge where non-smoker Arron committed a gross act of cigarette brutality, leaving her and the other smokers without any tobacco, or anything smokable.

Lauren was comforted and reassured by the housemates, who all admire her for making the tough decision. Alliances and feuds have been put on the backburner as they pull together as a team. Even though it's difficult for them seeing her upset, it's been good for them to put any residual problems to one side. 

The 100 Shopping Task continues throughout today and tomorrow so stay tuned to the website to see how the housemates deal with all of it's trials and tribulations.

No smoke without ire

Round two of Shopping Task 100 was a red hot exercise in divided loyalties. Arron, a non-smoker had to decide whether to sacrifice the group’s cigarettes to win 20 points, bringing the group significantly closer to a premium shopping budget.

After the confused housemates had obeyed BB's instructions to bring all their cigarettes to the sofa area, the trunks-sporting model was asked to stand up and told of his choice. Silence hung in the air as the smokers looked on with shocked, widened eyes. Then suddenly Arron was attacking the cigarettes.

After the deed was done and the silence lingered, Arron, quietly, in the voice of a child who knows they've incurred the wrath of a parent, said, "Just so you know, I did smoke for two years so I understand that this is a terrible thing to happen."

Truly terrible, up there with the great wrongs of the 21stcentury.

There were murmurs of support from non and infrequent smokers but silent fuming was all that came from certain quarters.

Lauren, an addicted smoker threatened to turn into a "She-Hulk".

"It was such a struggle to sit there and watch him do that," she said, drawing a comparison between this heinous act of cigarette-violence and the destruction of a beloved photo.

Lydia felt it would have been better to lose the task. Cigarettes are more improtant than food, it would seem.

Meanwhile, Arron was sitting out the backlash in the garden where he was joined by sometimes-enemy, sometimes-flirt-buddy Deana. "I would have done the same thing," she said. Could Darron rise from the ashes of Arron's current reputation?
