2.29pm: The HMs are congregating in the living room for todays task.
2.41pm: The HMs must answer questions on 'hot topics' in order to win treats for this evening. Let's hope they've got the smarts.

Day 36: Partying is the 'hot topic' of the day
The housemates have been feeling a bit hard done by of late, mainly due to the lack of parties in the past week - the poor little lambs. Lucky for them theyâve been given the chance to win one tonight, providing they correctly answer a series of questions.
A tombola filled with numbered balls from 1-12 and a board of potential treats have been placed in the living room. In turn the housemates will be asked to pick a ball from the tombola and the the prize they want to play for.
Each ball will correspond to a âhot topicâ which will comprise of two questions - if they get one or both of the questions right, theyâll win the prize. However, if they answer incorrectly, they will lose the prize and it canât be played for again.
The prizes up for grabs are as follows:
18 beers
3 bottles of wine
2 bottle of champagne
Party Snacks
Sweets
Chocolate
X5 Songs
A takeaway of their choice
The return of Luke S' beloved protein powder
Party outfits
A spray tan session
A makeup kit
Thereâs a lot to play for, but will they have the smarts to win a rocking party tonight? Stay with us to find out.
3.03pm: So far the housemates have won chocolate, make-up and party outfits. Sara is playing for champagne next
3.10pm: Becky has failed to win sweets by incorrectly guessing the name for a ham and pineapple pizza. She guessed margarita.
3.11pm: "How was I supposed to know it was hawaiian? I'm not posh" was Becky's reaction
3.18pm: Adam is answering questions about 'history' to win some beer. The HMs are hoping he knows his British history.
3.22pm: Adam correctly guessed that Henry VIII had six wives. He knows his kings.
3.30pm: Luke S is trying to work out the order of the planets to win 5 songs. "Mars isn't near the sun because people go there" âŠ
3.41pm: Ashleigh has failed to answer 2 questions about the Royals, losing the spray tans. A major blow for the essex gal.
Had problems getting online again so many thanks for all the updates I bet Luke S will be annoyed if he doesn't get his protein fix It may not be a good idea for Sara to have champagne
3.46pm: Shievonne has correctly guessed that Harry Potter went to Hogwarts, winning wine. It's turning in to some party
3.52pm: Task over - only Becky, Luke S and Ashleigh failed to answer their questions correctly.
The prizes will be delivered later

why do they keep giving it to him
Oh so he's got it back Aimee I don't understand why they feel he should have it So he, the drinkers and foodies have got stuff but the smokers get nothing!
4.13pm: As a reward for 4 of the housemates answering both of their questions correctly, they have been awarded the spray tans.
4.27pm: Luke A has vowed to get an orange spray tan tonight. Will he do an 'Alex' from last year?
4.40pm: Luke S is shaving his upper thigh. We have no idea why.
4.46pm: Conor has also decided to shave his legs - Monkey see, monkey do.
5:01pm Lauren has just finished giving Adam a hand massage. The effort was minimal on her part but he still seemed to enjoy it
5.15pm: A bare-chested Luke S just said he'd "get his kit off for cash". We don't think anyone would need to pay him to do that.
I just read on DS 5.41 - Shievonne threatening to leave.
5.25pm: Lauren has been headbanging. Cringe
5.49pm: Conor and Luke S are thoroughly shaven. Hairless men, how attractive
5.59pm: Becky and Scott are planning a camping trip. We're now amusing ourselves with the image of those two sharing a tent.
I just read on DS 5.41 - Shievonne threatening to leave.
looks like they have deleted the tweet now
I wouldnt be surprised if something is going on in the house - the tweets have been very sparse today with little constructive information considering there are 12 peeps in there and we usually get the shopping task and have only had a party one ??
will she or wont she
6.14pm: Conor is demanding protein. Caroline has suggested an egg. He's opted for toast instead

What's with the protein drinks

If she does decide to walk maybe it's because she's realised that on the week she's up it's not wise to confront Deana so verbally who's been saved a few times by the public.
Day 36: Who was hot and who was not
Todayâs âHot Topicsâ task gave housemates a chance to prove they were more than a bunch of pretty faces.
Answering questions on subjects including history, cheffing and the USA, they secured themselves a reasonable haul for tonightâs party.
Luke A, Caroline, Conor and Laurem answered all their questions correctly.
Housemates won beer, a takeaway, party snacks, makeup hamper, party hamper, champagne and chocolate. Conor won the love of Luke S when he successfully scored the return of the protein powder.
As a bonus Big Brother let housemates chose a prize and influenced by Ashleigh, they picked a spray tan. Luke S and Conor shaved their legs in preparation - we all know there is nothing more attractive than orange, hairless men.
Not everyone shone.
Shievonne thought Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet were characters in Peter Pan and Sara said a baby kangaroo was called a roo. Nice effort ladies.
Luke S tried to remember the order of the planets in the solar system by referring to a popular self help book, but he couldnât even get the title right instead saying, âWomen are from Mars, Men are from Venus.â Embarrassing.
Becky claimed she didnât know a ham and pineapple pizza was called a Hawaiian because she, âwasnât posh enough.â
Housemates have been bitching and sniping all afternoon, letâs hope the party will perk them up.
6.28pm: Caroline just asked Conor: "why am I stuck with all these losers?" We don't know Caroline, you tell us.
would the usual tweeters have ended with *just saying*
I think it was a wind up myself
from DS
5.41pm: Shievonne is threatening to leave. Would she be doing so if she wasn't up for eviction? Just saying. âŠ#bbukliveâŽ
6.45pm: Deana is working out in the garden. She has asked Big Brother for a treadmill. âŠ#bbukliveâŽ
6.59pm: Scott is searching for his Prince Charming. He just wants somebody to make him happy. Any takers? âŠ
7.12pm: Deana's got her shower cap on. We think she might be trying to pass it off as some kind of post-modern beret.
7.24pm: Ashleigh is twirling her hair and gossiping like a teenager about Luke S to Becky. It's definitely love
7.27pm: Their romantic chat has been rudely interrupted by a sudden noise from Becky's bottom. She's farted. Ashleigh has fled
7.39pm: DRAMA! There's a wasp loose in the bedroom and the garden doors are closed.
They're trapped. Will they make it out alive?
7.50pm: Drama over! The wasp is out of sight and everyone has made it out in one piece. Thank God for that
8.04pm: Ashleigh is about to pluck Caroline's eyebrows. We're expecting a piercing squeal any moment now.
8.20pm: There's two ladies and two mysterious-looking pumps waiting out in the garden.
What could possibly be going on?
8.30pm: The housemates are being treated to a spray tan in the garden. (Brown-tinted) pictures to follow!
8.38pm: There's bare bums all over the place in the House right now. We don't know where to look. âŠ
8.49pm: Luke S has gone a bit overboard on the tan. Ashleigh says "Ross from Friends", we say Oompa Loompa. âŠ
What dedication Mrs H ,much appreciated.
