In the midst of Jemima's evacuation and Dexter's relief at remaining a housemate for the next seven days at least, you might've forgotten that a task played out earlier. The Key, The Secret saw a privileged trio – Gina, Jackie and Wolfy – handed a pass to watch some of their fellow housemates revealing their best and worst facets.

That's right  - they saw some selected launch night VTs. Dexter and Callums' caused the biggest reaction and, as the eviction night dust settles, the threesome are using the background info to do some undercover work.

Gina kicked things off, speaking with a perma-grinning Dexter. Asking about his work, Gina wanted to know more about Dexter's day-job. Instantly suspicious, Dexter asked "have you seen my VT?"

"No!" exclaimed Gina, but Dexter carried on, saying he was cringe-worthy throughout his audition phase to try and make a mark and nobody is more embarrassed than him about how he came across. He then outlined all the silly things he'd said, thus removing any hold Gina's knowledge may have had over him. The clever boy.

On the other hand, Jackie's doing some detective work on our resident smoothie, Callum. Trying to extract the truth about his mother / daughter liaison claims, our dancing matriarch's been hot on his trail all night, asking all kinds of awkward questions. As yet, Callum's not given anything away.

As we type, Jackie's filling Charlie in on what she's learned. This could be the end times for that burgeoning Challum relationship. The ball is firmly in Callum's court, but the power is in Jackie's hands...

The spectre of a Friday night eviction loomed over the House in the morning of Day 16. In fact, it loomed for the majority of the day, as you might expect. Dexter was self-analysing as day broke, assessing his performance in the House so far as the evening began to draw close. This kind of navel-gazing was par for the course for the better part of the day, until a task rolled around to keep the gang busy.

The Key, The Secret saw housemates standing behind buzzers, preparing to tell some honest truths about their in-House relationships in exchange for some keys. The keys to exactly what, they weren't sure – but that didn't prevent them from gushing their innermost feelings. In Gina's case, she gushed then gushed some more. Dexter seemed to get the most grief, but our dating coach took it mostly on the chin.

The reward for this task saw Gina, Jackie and Wolfy gifted with a pass to watch some video footage of their fellow housemates – their VT tapes to be specific. But before they could work out how to react, it was time to primp and preenfor the coming night's action.

When the moment came, Jemima was out on her ear and Dexter lived to see another week in the House. The public's choice didn't shock Dan, and to be fair the House was in fine spirits as the evening wore on.

Our trio of enlightened ladies – Gina, Jackie and Wolfy – began to ask awkward questions as a result of their newly gained info, but spirits were so high it's likely we'll hear more of The Key, The Secret and all its fall out on Day 17. Stay glued to Big Brother for all the action as the BB bandwagon rolls on..

Jemima reacted to the news of her eviction with grace

We don't need to describe Dexter's reaction to being safe...

Earlier on, the task saw Gina let rip with the housemate criticism

Jackie struggled to hide her feelings during the task - not angry, just disappointed

Tonight's Bit on the Psych promises to be very hilarious indeed. Not only do we have funny man Iain Lee, we have funny woman Helen Lederer. Not only is this doubly hilarious it is gender equal. Hooray for fair representation. Hooray for laughter.

Jemima, the latest evicted housemate will be stepping into the limelight to tell all about life on the inside - fromt he outside - while psychologist Dr Funke will also be talking about the inside... of the mind.

The lovely AJ Odudu will be hosting this psychological comedy festival at 10pm on Channel 5. And you can enjoy it without lashings of mud, unlike other festivals we could mention. See you there!

It's been a touchy-feely start to the day in the Big Brother House. We think there's something about losing one of their numbers that makes housemates want to huddle together. From Wolfy leaping into bed with Callum the moment the lights came on to Sophie valiantly trying conceal Jack's bald stripe with a comb-over the gang have been all over each other.
What a pity there'll be a round of nominations soon to shake this sweetness.

So it's fair-thee-well to Jemima, but we couldn't let her go without one final chinwag. After a quick sleep and a spruce up, we hauled her back in to see how she's feeling about being back on the outside. 

So what have you been up to since you left the Big Brother house?

Well, I only left last night so, obviously, just a few interviews and then back to the hotel to see my sister and my friend, laid in bed, drank some wine! It's nice to be out, back in the real world, although obviously I miss everybody inside.

Has it dawned on you yet, everything you've been through since you entered the House?

I don't think it will dawn on me for quite a while, really. I have quite a structured life at home, so I'll probably just fall straight back into it. The realisation of it all probably won't hit until I actually start watching it all back, bcause, even though it's a studio, it's still a house at the end of the day. You make it your home, you cook, you clean. I had to teach Sam how to clean the toilet! 

Do you think the House has changed your life? 

100 percent. It's a massive learning curve going in the House, especially the fact how I lived when I was in there; no clothes, no food, living on basic rations, learning how to make eight different meals out of chickpeas and tomatoes! You reflect a lot on your life and it makes you happy with what you have on the outside. I've never experienced anything like that in my life before.

What are three things you've learnt from this experience? 

To appreciate, to listen more, and to say my pleases and thank yous! 

Did you ever think you could win?

I never thought about winning. It's only when it started to get closer to going in and started thinking about, "Oh my gosh there is prize money at the end of this game." You don't run a race to come last! But when I got in there I knew from Day two there was obviously no way I was going to.

Who do you think will win/like to win? 

I have a feeling Jack and Joe have a good chance of winning – they are big characters when theyre together, they're like a double act. I'd actually really like Sophie to win. She's a great girl. I need to watch back and see what they've said about me, which obviously is a bit scary!

After another female housemate bids the boys and girls farewell, Big Brother decided tonight to bring some much needed feminine touches back to the House.

Sure, they could've shipped in a few vases of petunias or at least an aloe vera air freshener, but that wouldn't be half as much fun as it was to dress up the boys in pink frilly negligees, making them dance with face masks on now, would it?

As the real women watched enchanted from the garden, the results of a group of men pillaging a make-up box were not exactly that of a Vogue photoshoot, as Sam emerged in his face mask looking like he was about to murder Batman.

The twins finally find a way to look like their own, erm, men.

Even Callum can't quite butch up a pink vest.

Naily Daley seems to be taking his beautifying very seriously.

In a frilly negligee, Dan's posterior is far superior.

The men certainly aren't enjoying their feminine transformations.

HOLY PERPETUAL NIGHTMARES FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES, BATMAN!

Wolfy and the others look on from the window, watching their new lady friends gracefully transform.

Callum and Joe feign disinterest at Big Brother's plans for them this evening.

Remember that Gina, Jackie and Wolfy managed to earn themselves some inside info on the way a few of their fellow housemates conducted themselves before they entered the House?

Well, all that information is now spilling out of their mouths. The result is a House bristling with mixed emotions and, funnily enough, the most rattled housemates of all are the trio who earned the sneaky reward.

Slowly but surely the secret of what the ladies were up to on Day 16 when they entered that tas room has dripped out. Jack and Joe had worked out the ploy and eventually, after a few fizzy drinks, the living area was filled with the question "what do you know?"

One by one, the threesome revealed what they'd seen with Gina taking the lead. The reactions were mixed. Dexter seemed amused, revealing "I thought it'd be far worse" – understandable considering he's already told us all his dirty secrets. Callum was interested to hear his VT relayed and over-compensation was the by-word as he told all how he'd amplified his exploits for effect. It was Hazel who looked the most rattled. When Gina revealed that the model had said she wanted to "stir" in the House, Hazel disputed the manner in which she'd said it which led to an uncomfortable discussion over different stirring techniques.

When it was over, Wolfy, Gina and Jackie decamped to the bedroom and had a confused, babbling conversation in which Gina was upset that the other two hadn't backed her up. They all revealed that they couldn't perfectly recall what was said in those VHS tapes, and now there's a very peculiar atmosphere permeating the House. But that last fact, in itself, is perhaps nothing altogether new.
