Charlie Travers isn’t known for her tact and she’s put her foot in it again prompting a backlash from Gina.

It all got a bit muddled but in short, during one of Charlie’s ill-advised speaking sessions, she used Gina as an example of a girl you might not fancy at first, if you were Sam, but after a couple of weeks you would realised you were attracted to her. This has happened to Charlie before when she was doing her ski season.

Gina said, "So basically you are calling me ugly," and went on to exclaim, "You always say the wrong things all the time. And it’s annoying. Oh my god."

Charlie has apologised but that hasn’t stopped Gina spreading the word, telling housemates that Charlie has to realise she needs to watch what she says.  

Callum tried to gently break the news to Charlie, "You have two ears and one mouth," he said. "Use them in proportion."

Whether or not she got the message was tough to tell, he spent a lot of time spinning twisted bit of wire and explaining how he used it to try and understand people which may have distracted Charlie from the lesson in hand.

In the garden, Hazel let Charlie know that Gina had been chatting to Dan and Sophie about Miss Travers' loose lips – apparently she is still stinging about the time the gaffer got muddled up with what she did for a living. Hazel did have some words of comfort, adding: "It’s just a settling period. When you day sorry to someone it takes a while to sink in."

We don’t think we’ve heard the last of this one. Chalrie changed the conversation to whether or not they should have eggs for breakfast but Gina isn’t going to forget so easily.

It's fair to say that Callum has seized the opportunity to play House therapist with both hands. But how are the other housemates reacting to his words of wisdom? Hmm, let's just say it's a mixed bag.
Both Dan and Hazel emerged from their sessions with a similar air of suspicion. Speaking to Charlie post- chat, Hazel warned, "He's been made to try and catch us out", with Dan adding, "Just be careful. It's a catch."
Dexter also had his suspicions, telling Gina in the bedroom that he thinks Callum used the opportunity to 'have one over on him'.
"He said my journey was complete, like he was insinuating that I'm ready to leave," he mused. 
Is Callum using his new found power to get his own back on his sparring partner, or is Dexter looking too much into a throw-away comment? Who knows with these two.  They play so many mind games that not even we can keep up.
Meanwhile, the Twins were just happy to have free biscuits and Gina came out of her slot telling anyone who would listen that she had a whale of a time.
"I had a biscuit and I laid down and I chilled. It was lovely", she said.
Well you win some, you lose some, but maybe you shouldn't give up your day job just yet, Cal.

Our House agony uncle for the afternoon was Callum. As part of the I'm All Ears task, "Mr. Nicey Nice" (as he's been dubbed since he crossed the House threshold) listened sympathetically to every housemates' issues in an attempt to lighten their load and soothe their brains.

A great variety of housemate issues spilled from the crazy gang's mouths when they weren't chomping the provided biscuits. Dan talked about his problems with being a greedy so-and-so. Dexter mentioned that he had problems with people in the group – highlighting his own therapist of the moment, Callum, as a particular bugbear. Hazel revealed that she's frightened of opening up because she worries criticism will be heaped upon her. Gina's issue was reintegration after living the Safe House high life.

When the twins sat on the couch and vented, they made it clear the House 'love triangle' was giving them grief and also revealed that they're sick of being "talked down to". Charlie was next on the settee and she chose to speak to her on-off masseur about thinking before she speaks – as well as her issues with trust. Sophie had less to say, mainly fuming that people in the House annoy her and that washing her underwear in the sink is proving to be a pain. The poor love.

Ultimately it was Sam who won the task. At Big Brother's command, Callum decided it was the Welsh lad who'd opened up the most. He was "open-minded", he "opened up" and he even "welled up" – so Callum was impressed.

His reward? The lucky beggar got to reverse rolls and cross-examine Callum back. He also got to munch more of those delicious biscuits. Hooray!

Dear universe, Big Brother calling. We wanted to warn all your inhabitants that voicing an issue with Charlie will result in more concerned conversations than any person can reasonably hear out.

Earlier today Charlie, the last Travers standing, put her foot in her mouth with Gina. As day has turned to night these issues are still playing on her mind.

First she invaded Sophie's Safe House to tell the dental nurse about her pain. Not one to let grass grow under her feet, Sophie took the conversation outside straight to Gina, telling the Savoy dweller that Charlie was still feeling royally blue about what she'd done.

"Oh my god, drop it woman," drawled Gina, tacking on the reassurance, "I don't hate you."

Callum was next in line for a Charlie-shaped earworm. He relished his role and was quick to use Charlie's doubts about her House role to big up his own. If we had a pound for every time he said, "I am trusted", well,  we'd weigh more than the Royal baby.

Even Callum soon had enough and retreated to the bedroom.

Come in Dexter.

There followed a bizzare, baffling exchange, which Charlie found helpful because "I haven't chatted to anyone all day."

Um.

"I think you'll only understand when you watch this [Big Brother] back and see people's reactions," said Dexter.

Too right.

Day 40 in the Big Brother House was a contender for the most twisted and poignant of them all. And this is in a series that has seen an actor posing as a housemate with significant betrayals as a result.

The day got started with a classic Charlie Travers gaffe. The female point of the 'love triangle' managed to insult Gina. Not again.

Fortunately the I'm All Ears task saw Callum becoming House therapist, just when a bit of healthy perspective was most needed.  Dr Knell saw everyone but was most impressed by Patient Evans. The Welshman won the chance to analyse Callum right back. Wonder if he rolled out corny Doctor, Doctor jokes...

Callum probably shouldn't give up the PE teaching just yet as Charlie's stress levels continued to be high. "Leave it alone, woman," drawled Ms Rio, who had moved on. But that's just not the Travers Jr style. She moved on only as far as another subject, Dexter, who she dissected to kingdom come with Hazel.

But all this was but an appetiser for the main meal, the short before a feature presentation, a ripple before a stream of television drama. As we are all aware, this week the housemates are blind to the reality of the nomination process. Safe House dwellers Sam and Sophie are anything but safe despite everyone believing this. Their important and proud decision to welcome Dan into their ranks actually means he is up for eviction too. 

Not that anyone knows this. All bar these three have been told that they are up for eviction. The safe think they're in danger and those in danger think they're safe. It's a genius and dastardly twist, not to mention a confusing one. So read thisand then head to our vote page.

Who goes out of Sophie, Sam and Dan? You decide.

Now we've got all that royal baby stuff out of the way, let's focus on the important stuff... like tonight's rip-roaring Big Brother's Bit on the Side. 

Joining us on the panel tonight, we have pop royaltly, S Club's Tina Barrett, a man that's come all the way from under to join us, Neighbour's Mark Little and former Big Brother contestant, Scott Mason. 

And as a special Tuesday treat, we've drafted in psychologist and dancer, Pete Lovatt. 

What's that you say? Sounds like it's going to be a sublime show? We couldn't agree with you more.

You know the drill by now – see you after the main show at 11pm on Channel 5.
