12.26pm: Deana is kneading dough. Sara has put oil in a pan, Adam has formed meat patties and Ashleigh is watching. Team work.
12.38pm: Luke S is demanding a task. Has he still not worked out that he's not running the show?
12.46pm: Housemates have decided that if they have to get the train home after they've been evicted they'll have to go 1st Class.
12.57pm: Housemates have a task. They have to be security guards and exhibits. Check the website for full details.
No details yet
Day 64: Silence is not golden
It's been an exceptionally slow morning, even by this bunch's standards. It was so quiet that the thunking sound of Sara's unusual hair-curling technique rang out like the footsteps of an approaching dinosaur.
Why so serious, housemates?
Well, we've got some theories... one theory, hear us out.
It's exactly one week until the final. The thing that everyone in that House has been playing for is close enough to smell and no one wants to jeopardise their position. The safest way to guard against rogue acts of anti-social behaviour is to keep one's peace. Adam knew it from day one, Shievonne knew it but didn't have the restraint to, as she said to Chris, "keep it cute and keep it mute" and now it seems the remaining seven know it.
This morning we've seen Luke A and Adam cleaning the kitchen, Scott reading his letter from home before joining the cleaning crew, Lushleigh in each other's arms staring blankly into space and Sara and Deana making themselves up with wordless intensity. Our minds are so numbed that we've been using them as an ice box. Let's hope Big Brother is equally displeased with this silent solidarity otherwise this is going to be one long week...
Scott gripped by a letter he's already read
Luke A's so bored he's poking his own eyes out
Sharing (tedium) is caring
The lads have a clean
1.03pm: Scott and Sara are going to be security guards, the rest will be exhibits.
Day 64: The Museum Task
he Big Brother Museum will open its doors today with housemates challenged to make a show of themselves.
Itâs a shopping task and BB has told the housemates that five of them will be exhibits and must stand still and in silence in order to pass the task. The remaining two will be security guards and it will be their job to inspect the statue-like housemates when a red light on their desk flashes, noting down any movements. They will remain in the outside the museum when not inspecting.
If the security guards fail to do their job to Big Brotherâs satisfaction, housemates will spend their last week on an economy food budget.
Sounds exciting doesnât it? What do you mean not really....
Thatâs because Big Brother is only telling the security guards half the story. They have been called to the Diary Room, leaving the remaining five to learn the truth of the task....
Stay tuned to the website to uncover the truth behind this curious curation caper.
Who nominated who...
Ashleigh
Ashleigh is first into the diary room. She nominates Deana and brands her as âsneaky and âsnideyâ. âI just donât like herâ Ashleigh tells Big Brother. Her second nomination is for Adam. She feels that Adam became snappy at her when Ashleigh said that she wasnât bothered about the prize money being halved: âTo me money isnât everything. Itâs about the experience. If I was bothered about the money then I would go on a game showâ she claims. In addition, Ashleigh feels that Adam talks in riddle and can be very manipulative.
Deana
Deana nominates Ashleigh branding her as âselfishâ and âtwo facedâ. Deana believes that she has tried her best to be friends with Ashleigh but Ashleigh cannot let things go: âEven when I burnt toast she had to go and tell the others. I told her it was the toaster that burnt the toast â not meâ. Deana also tells Big Brother that Ashleigh does not respect fellow housemateâs belongings: âShe always borrows my shoes and never looks after them. She never lends anyone anything of her ownâ she says. Her second nomination is for Scott. Deanaâs main reason for this nomination is that Scott has attempted to have several conversations with her since Conor and Becky have left the house and claims that he is acting differently as they approach the final. âItâs too late, he should have done it weeks agoâ she tells Big Brother.
Scott
Approaching the diary room Scott cannot find his shoes. âO God, you canât see your feet in there can you?â he asks Adam. Seemingly flustered, Scott tells Big Brother to wait while he moisturizes his face.
After some time, Scott eventually nominates Adam. âHe stares a lot at me. You have two dinner plate eyes staring at you and it is quite unnervingâ he declares. Scott feels that he gets on the least with Adam: âThere isnât much spontaneous, upbeat conversationâ he quips. Scott continues to tell Big Brother that Adam is the housemate that he is least likely to be able to have a âchin wagâ with. When asked by Big Brother to describe Adam in one word, Scott says âponderousâ.
Scott spends time debating whether he should nominate Sara until he exclaims: âWhat the f*** am I thinking. She is my friendâ. He eventually nominates Deana. His reason for this nomination is that Deana sometimes upsets fellow housemates by taking jokes too far: âShe can be heartless at timesâ he says and brands her as âbiteyâ. Scott mentions how Deana has an attitude towards other housemates, particularly Ashleigh. Referring to Deanaâs âSoldier talkâ, Scott labels her as âcringeyâ. Finally when asked to describe Deana in one word, Scott says âbanterousâ. Thirty minutes after entering the Diary Room, Scott eventually leaves: âI canât even think about themâ he groans.
Adam
Adam nominates Ashleigh as he is still angry about the shopping list being sabotaged. His second nomination is for Scott, branding him as âlazyâ. Adam does not think that Scott pulls his weight when his fellow housemates are cleaning the house.
Sara
Sara nominates Scott because he had been talking about her mum to fellow housemates after friends and family nominations. Her second nomination is for Adam. Sara questions her friendship with Adam and doubts whether he likes her. She also feels that Adam spins what people say in order to appear the better person in: âSometimes he is playing a gameâ she claims.
Luke A
Luke A nominates Ashleigh and brands her as âselfishâ. He makes reference to when Ashleigh pushed in front of Lauren when they were having spray tans because Ashleigh wanted hers re-done. Luke A also claims that Ashleigh always blames somebody else when she loses any of her personal belongings. His second nomination is for Scott. His main reason for this nomination is that Scott is not a team-player when it comes down to cleaning: âhe doesnât want to join inâ Luke A declares. Luke A also speculates that Scott is playing a game as he has been going from group to group within the house. When asked to describe Scott in one word, Luke A says âarticulateâ.
Luke S
Luke S is the last housemate to enter the diary room. Without hesitation he nominates Deana. âShe is doing my head inâ he grunts. Luke S brands Deana as âirritatingâ and believes that she has been deliberately winding him up by calling him âCharlieâ. âShe keeps calling me Charlie and saying I have won the golden ticket to the final. Well low and behold my name is clearly not Charlie â It is actually Lukeâ. His second nomination is for Luke A. Luke S tells Big Brother that he gets on better with other people in the house and feels that they havenât bonded. When asked to describe Luke A in one word, Luke S says: âinspirationalâ.
With four votes Scott will face the public vote alongside Adam, Ashleigh and Deana who each received three nominations.
Luke A received one nomination and Sara did not receive any nom
1.16pm: Sara has changed into her guard uniform. "You look like a stripper," is Luke S's instant feedback.
1.30pm: Luke A thinks Ashleigh is basing herself on past housemates and she is pretending to be 'stupid'.
1.40pm: Scott is singing a little song in his guard uniform.
1.55pm: Here's Scott straightening his hat. All guards have very straight hats. It's key.
2.06pm: Ashleigh is asking Scott about doing a degree in Pharma-cuticles.
2.11pm: The museum exhibits are getting dressed up. Luke S is a t-rex & Adam and Ashleigh are a totem pole
1.30pm: Luke A thinks Ashleigh is basing herself on past housemates and she is pretending to be 'stupid'.
I said this ages ago about her, i think she's trying to copy Jade
2.26pm: Luke A is the Rosetta Stone and Deana is an astronaut.
2.40pm: Adam has just explained to Deana what a totem pole is. She thought it was 'real animals'.
2.51pm: Luke S had to roar like a dinosaur. Deana said he sounded like a pussy cat. He says he's saving himself.
3.06pm: Scott and Sara are watching the exhibits on their monitor. Scott is relieved no one got to dress up as a Georgian.
3.19pm: Scott & Sara do not appear to be taking the task too seriously. They're planning Scott's Tanning Salon
I expected to be able to do this today but sorry peeps, got to go for now
I expected to be able to do this today but sorry peeps, got to go for now
no problem - I will pop in when I can for now and will be back this evening
3.33pm: Ashleigh's eyes are glimmering from inside her totem outfit.
3.50pm: The exhibits could get up and do the polka and the nattering guards probably wouldn't notice
Day 64: Behind the scenes at the museum
The Big Brother Museum is currently curating its first show.
Some of the housemates were unimpressed when BB gave then this shopping task. Sara said, "This task is so crap. Why couldnât we have a party task for the last week?" A party is not a task Sara, itâs a treat. Big Brother however had a few new rules to give our exhibit housemates while the security guards were called to The Diary Room.
Big Brother broke the news that the exhibits only had to stand still and silent for one hour after which they will be able to move. If they managed to, they would be rewarded greatly.
The security guards are not to know the rules have changed. Housemates must convince them they havenât moved at all.
Exhibit housemates have been given 'artifact' costumes for the duration of the task. Luke S is a T-Rex, Adam and Ashleigh are a totem pole, Deana is an astronaut and Luke A the Rosetta Stone.
Deana said, "Thereâs three Lukes here now. Iâm Luke Armstrong." Luke A pointed out her error. Not that he and Luke S showed themselves to be any more informed, both admitting they thought Rosetta Stone was, "an actual woman", not "a piece of toast".
Security guards Scott and Sara are also looking very dapper in their uniforms. Luke S said Sara looked like a stripper. Quite a compliment.
Scott and Sara will be doing their best to make sure the exhibits behave, will they be able to spot that they have been moving? Will the exhibits manage to stand like statues long enough to receive their reward?
