Was just wondering if she's not 'trying' so hard now, now that they're so close to the end....and he's finding it easier to talk and joke with her?
1725: Michael is telling Denise that he thinks it gets harder as there's fewer days to go.

Day 17: Task update â housemates are hoaxed
3 hours ago
Earlier this afternoon Big Brother called everyone to the living room where the task continued to unfold. The housemates were shown a fake video clip illustrating their new found celebrity status and their 'cult following' in JapanâĶ
They were informed that this year's Celebrity Big Brother has been a bit hit in Japan, experiencing a huge number of viewers. As a result the producers of a Japanese show had contacted Big Brother and asked to speak to the three people most popular with the Japanese public. What the majority of the housemates didn't know was that Denise was in on the hoax and she had personally selected Gareth, the twins and Romeo to take part in fake interviews on fictional Japanese game show 'Super Chat' (English translation), via a live link this afternoon.
A short while ago, Denise and her chosen housemates were called into the Diary room for a briefing about the upcoming interviews where they also had to sign fake Japanese release forms.
Whilst this was going on, the rest of the House were gathered in the living room where Big Brother showed them a power point presentation on the plasma which revealed that it is all a lie and that they must do everything they can to convince Gareth, the twins and Romeo that it is all genuine.
The housemates in the know have since played their part and have been doing all they can to keep the 3 gullible celebs (Romeo, Gareth and the twins) thinking that it is all legitimate. Romeo was talking about how he'd never even released anything in Japan, to which Michael responded "well you must've done something". Frankie has also done his bit, pretending to sulk about not being one of those most popular in Japan.
The interviews will take place shortly this afternoon, and housemates are currently getting ready for their TV appearance.
Keep track of the official Big Brother Facebook and Twitter pages to see how it pans out.
The "most popular" ones head to the diary room to be briefed.

Haha! Hadn.t clicked with me at first. 
So Frankie's sulk was just for show? Shall we applaud him? I can well believe that is EXACTLY what he'd do if it were all real.
