That's what I was thinking

Evening Scotty 

6:37pm: It just got all Titanic-esque up in herrre...

6:43pm: Sophie and Gina are manning the phone in rescue squad HQ, just in case a new emergency presents itself.

6:55pm: Sophie and Gina are now trying to save the falling shopping. They drop some- "oh, it's only crisps!" shouts Joe.

Evening Aimee 

8.30pm: The housemates have discovered the task will be ongoing through the night. They seem quite pragmatic

Day 62 round-up: housemates to the rescue!

As the housemates awoke on their last Tuesday in the Big Brother House (what?! 'The last Tuesday' is so too a milestone!) they were transformed into a blue spandex-suited rescue squad. Their mission for this week? Save the shopping, of course.

The day went by in a blur of heroic activity. Could the housemates save the popcorn? Were their catchphrase skills sharp enough? Would Gina and Sam stick together or pull apart? Would the bread perish or survive? Could they defuse a bomb before it sent a whole bunch of groceries sky high?

Big Brother was impressed by their courage in the face of such adverse conditions, so the rescue squad were treated to a selection of Tweets and Facebook comments from some of our fabulous viewers. There were smiles and laughs and, because one of you naughty lot called Gina 'sly'!

It was soon Chexter's turn to rescue some falling shopping from the incendiary Town Hall, which rather interrupted a deep and meaningful conversation they were trying to have in the treehouse. But that's the nature of emergency; it has no respect for soul-searching treehouse-based chit chat.

As everyone started getting ready for their gruelling rescue squad night shifts, the twins had a few words for each other. Night shifts are hard, guys, we understand!

Charlie to the rescue!

Gina was very taken with her rescue squad torch

Chexter successfully rescued some shopping

Sam had some alone time at the bus stop

Day 63: The Rescue Squad rota takes its toll

All told, it's been a bit of a busy night for our beloved housemates.

The Rescue Squad task has seen our squaddies working shifts to ensure that none of their weekly shopping falls victim to circumstance. They've been saving groceries all night and all morning –  grumbling, laughing, muttering and joking their way through sunrise and, when occasion demanded, jumping to attention and scooping up their supper from perilous situations.

Gina and Dexter saw in Day 63, working the witching hour shift. To keep their spirits up, referring to vegetables he nearly saved, Dexter kept making that "mushroom" / "much room" gag we're all familiar with. Gina's response was to comment on how "ridonkulous" the entire situation was. It's hard to argue with that point of view.

Sam took over from Dexter in the early hours. He and Gina nattered about all kinds of stuff, the highlight probably being a chat about which would be worse – being bitten by a tarantula or a shark. It's a tough call, that one. Heroically, Dexter rose again to take over alongside Charlie, allowing Gina and Sam to get back to sleepy-time.

Chexter chuckled throughout their graveyard slot. There was belching (Dexter: "I can't stop burping garlic"), there was singing of Peter Andre tunes and there was also a little period where they addressed their issues with each other. But soon their delirium turned to slight annoyance as the twins took a while to take over from their shift. Sophie joined the grumpy pair for a while, at which point Jack began to worry about what the sunrise might bring. His main concern was wasps and other stingers.

"What time do bees get up in the morning?" he pondered, looking worried.

Sam and Gina took over again not long after as the sun rose higher in the sky. Gina's favourite word, "ridonkulous" was aired time and time again but she and Sam struggled through until Charlie and Dexter took over once more. When they were done, the twins took to the tree house to relieve them of their duties. And on it goes, with the rota turning over and leaving our housemates slightly bewildered, losing track of time, dressed in blue spandex and working for food.

Isn't it marvellous?

 Big twist tonight... will it involve the prize money?

•  

 

Big Brother bosses have confirmed another big twist will take place in tonight’s show.

 

Following the latest round of Big Brother nomination results, Charlie Travers, Dexter Koh, Jack and Joeand Sam Evans were all put up for the axe.

It was the last round of nominations and the second time that housemates had to nominate live and face to face.

 

However, lines have still yet to open for viewers to evict one of the four.

 

Big Brother announced yesterday that a twist was in store, but did not go into detail, which has led to plenty of speculation.

 

With just days to go until the final, it’s possible that the new twist will involve the prize money, and will almost certainly involve the nominated housemates in some way.

 

Previous prize money twists have included seeing half of the £100,000 pot being given away last series, in return for one housemate having to immediately forfeit their place in the house.

 

Big Brother has also been known to give out other cash prizes too, with two housemates sharing £50,000 back in 2008 after a game of prisoner’s dilemma.

 

What do you think the twist will be? Should some of the prize money be given away?

 

Big Brother airs tonight at 9PM on Channel 5.

Afternoon peeps 

Thanks for the updates MrsH 

ETA: 

Day 63: The Rescue Squad's shopping is held to ransom

2.42pm: Uh oh. The Steam Roller task has arrived. Dexter and Joe are in the Sewer. Details to follow!

2.51pm: Jack and Joe are struggling in the Sewer - here's what's going down:

Day 63: Rescue Squad take on the Steam Roller

Oh, good heavens! There's more trouble in store for Rescue Squad as this week's shopping task continues...

 A steam roller has entered the garden, gone out of control and the driver's jumped! What's more, he's also thrown a huge amount of shopping along the length of the road in the process.

When the traffic lights turn green, the steam roller will start driving along the road, crushing any shopping in its path.  An override lever which can turn this traffic light to red is located in the Sewer.

Two housemates are going to be handcuffed together to a matrix of pipes in the Sewer.  As the steam roller gradually destroys their shopping, this pair must navigate through the pipe matrix to reach the lever as quickly as possible. 

The faster they go, the quicker they'll be able to turn the lights red again to stop the steam roller - and the more of their delicious shopping they'll save.

This is an important one – so don't go falling flat, housemates.

3.05pm: Joe and Dexter are looking slightly bedraggled after their time in the Sewer. All HMs are in the living area.

3.09pm: #BBRescue results are in! HMs have saved a lot of shopping and scored some bonus "luxury treats." The relief's palpable.

3.10pm: Correction to previous tweet - it was of course Dexter and Joe who took on the Steam Roller task. Oops.

(2.51 tweet)

I see they've won a make over  I don't get why they've started doing this

Day 63: The Biggest Twist Yet

Housemates may currently have their hands full as they wrestle with the all-action Rescue Squad task for this week's shopping budget. But they may need to brace themselves – and you might need to too.

We've heard secrets this series and we've also been told some lies - but we're about to see the biggest secret so far unveiled and one heck of a porker uncovered at the same time!

We'll let you in on the basics. A big twist is coming later today. This one will dramatically change the outcome of the entire series. It may well affect the prize fund. It may also make some of the housemates very happy and it might also make others very sad. Whatever happens, it will certainly change the dynamic in the House from today, right up until the final.

We'd love to tell you more, but we can't give away all our secrets too early. We'll have all the action exclusively on the website, so keep tabs on the site, check Facebook and keep checking Twitter to keep up to speed with what's undoubtedly going to be this series' biggest twist so far!

Thanks for your update today  

I meant they didn't do it years ago and I don't see why they started it, they should come out looking rough 

6:35pm: Uh ohhh! Crowd noise is being piped into the House! The HMs are suspicious and worried.

6.52pm: The housemates are lining up in the bedroom ready for tonight's twist.

6.56pm: The four nominated housemates are standing behind podiums in the living room..

Day 63: The Big Pay Off

The big twist is upon us!

Our four nominated housemates have been told that they're about to face a very, very important dilemma.

Big Brother is prepared to pay off our remaining HMs in cold, hard cash to leave the show tonight. The question is, what's the lowest amount of money they'll be willing to take in order to leave the process?

One by one, in a random order chosen by the housemates, the four evictees will come to the small task room. Inside they'll be faced with a dramatically lit wall of figures. The wall will be covered in removable boards, each with a different amount of money written on it - ranging from a quid to £100,000. The four evictees must each choose the lowest amount they'd be prepared to take in order to clear off this very evening.

Housemates are going to have to think about how much money they want to receive, how much they think others will take and, even more than that, how much they want to stay to the final. The lower they go, the more likely they are to win, but the less money they'll leave with and their BB experience will end rather abruptly.

Each of our four nominated housemates will then place their chosen cash-piles inside a briefcase before being gathered in the living area where they'll stand behind a podium. One by one, they'll open their briefcases to reveal the amount of money they've chosen.

How low can you go housemates... and when you said you wanted to make it to the final, exactly how much did you mean it? 

Thanks Scotty so that's where they are lol,have never seen that link before. I'll have a practice later to see if I get it right

7.05pm: Sam is first to choose his price tag. He's taking this decision very seriously... #BBPayOff

7.14pm: The twins are up next... #bbuklive
