Scott reclines on the lawn, stifles a yawn
A couple of Outsiders get in some pool time
5.02pm: Luke A's gone to the Diary Room. He's gurning. Not sure there's a gurning-based task.
5.12pm: Scott and Sara are bonding over their love of 'chavs'.
5.22pm: Becky to Conor: "What would you rather kiss? An arctic roll, a sausage roll or a roll of fat?" He's declined to answer.
5.40pm: Luke S is doing his 'hilarious' Big Brother impression again. Nominations tension may be getting to him.
Luke S and the word hilarious in the same sentence.

6.04pm: Adam is making mashed potato. Conor asked if he put a whole 'slob' of butter in it. We can exclusively reveal, he did not.
6.12pm: Luke S told Ashleigh he is going to take her on a picnic this week. She then farted on him. Romance is clearly not dead.

6.38pm: The garden is out of bounds. Talk has turned to sex.

Evening MrsH and thanks
Becky was stirring it but it was a boring day really until that result!
7.02pm: It's task time. There will be melons. And elastic bands. And explosions.
Day 49: Melons of mass destruction
26 mins ago
The energy in the House has been rather low today, so to shake the housemates out of their lethargic mood, Big Brother has set them a challenge. Named âMelons of Mass Destructionâ, the aim of the game is simple - to make a melon explode.
How do you a explode a melon you ask? Quite easily actually, all you need is a stationary favourite...
The housemates have been plied with rubber bands and been instructed to wrap them around the centre of two watermelons. As more elastic bands are added, the pressure will increase inside the melons, until they eventually explode. Well, you learn something new every day!
The Housemates have been separated into two teams - boys vs girls, and whoever explodes their watermelon first will win a reward later today.
Rubber bands, check. Watermelon. Check. Now let the games begin!
Diary Room uncut
What's that? You want extra action from the diary room, and you want it uncut? Well go on then, we'll treat ya.
7.15pm: It's boys against girls in the exploding melons task. The boys are talking tactics
7.21pm: The boys are victorious - the exploding melon was a pretty impressive sight
Bit on the Side's Pub Quiz
The housemates are not really enjoying the weekly pub quiz for Bit on the Side very much. Well tough luck because we enjoy it and we're in charge muhahahaha!
Flying ant day
It's a lazy summer's day in the Big Brother House. For the moment, the most dramatic event of the day is two flying ants copulating on Sara's leg. But expect some proper fireworks when nominations are revealed later today...
7.33pm: Ashleigh is showing everyone how to click their back."I should be a clickatherapist" she enthusiastically suggests
7.49pm: That task seems to have taken it out of our housemates. They are flat out on the sofa, mumbling nonsense
