It's been another 24 hours in the House, and, well, it's been an emotional one. Let's get caught up on all the action...

Alicia started the day wondering about the preferred temperatures of creepy-crawlies, and then was horrified to hear that her voice might be a bit too loud. If you had to line up our housemates in order of loudness, though, she wouldn't be at the top, would she?

Speaking of loud, Perez, Nadia and Patsy decided to have a bit of a chant in the garden. As you do. (Other garden activities are also available.)

The rest of the day saw our housemates doing what they do best, i.e. showing off, and wearing hats. Honestly, it's just nice to see them taking a break from arguing.

Just when you thought nothing was going to disturb the newly established equilibrium, some golden envelopes arrived from Big Brother. Inside were the celebrities' photographs from home, and soon there wasn't a dry eye in the House. Awwww.

After wiping away the tears, there was just time for Katie H. and Michelle to decide on a new business venture, and for Cami-Li to play a prank on poor old Patsy, before all the celebs turned in for the night.

Usually we don't approve of early nights, but we'll let them off just this once.

After all, there's an eviction looming...

Straight faces everyone! And that includes you – don’t think we can’t see you sniggering at the back.

Today’s task is a serious matter. Or at least, as serious as is humanly possible in the face of some classic Cheggers comedy. Allow us to explain…

Keith has been summoned to the Diary Room to be given a secret mission by Big Brother: he has to make as many housemates laugh as possible.

Sounds easy enough for a legend-of-the-lolz such as Keith Chegwin, right? Wrong.

Because while Keith’s in the Diary Room being briefed, the other housemates are being told the real mission: for them to not laugh.

“Should be easy enough,” snarks Hopkins. “We’ve done that for two weeks.”

If they hold back the laughter, and Keith doesn’t cotton on, they’ll be rewarded with a prize. Check back later to see how the housemates fare – can they resist the chuckles of Chegwin?

When she came into the House a week ago, Katie Price lifted the mood, diffused the arguments (to an extent anyway – she’s not a superhero) and made herself 11 new friends.

But it seems seven days is all it takes for the sparkle to fade. This morning has already seen Calum admit Pricey’s nomination of him, and her lack of self-censorship when it comes to intimate matters, is beginning to grate on him.

Well, it seems several housemates are following suit.

“Let’s make a pact, as of today, not to talk about your exes,” suggested Michelle. “You’ve said all there is to say, and then some.”

Pricey agreed. Sort of.

“But I’m alright to talk about Kieran,” she said, just moments later. “He’s not an ex.”

Seeing that her pep talk was falling on deaf ears, Michelle headed for the sofas, where Pricey was beginning to go a bit stale amongst Cami and Calum, whose relationship Pricey had recently been stirring up with the help of some rather explicit chat.

“People are done with it, and she’s going to get in trouble,” said Michelle.

Calum agreed, before sloping off to training in a Pricey-fuelled sulk.

“Oh my God, he did not seem happy,” noted Cami.

Also ready to hand back her membership of the Katie Price Fan Club was Alicia, who confided in Katie Hopkins mid-exercise about her changing opinion of Pricey.

“I did say I was going to wait and see who the real Katie Price is,” said Alicia, giving her one-time tabloid foe a fair chance. “But she did lie about me. She looked at the camera and said ‘Alicia wants to go home’ when I blatantly told her I wanted to stay.”

The other Katie was quick to unveil her own issues with her namesake.

“I don’t agree with talking to Big Brother in amongst talking in a conversation,” Katie Hopkins added. “I don’t like when she says ‘this, this and this, Big Brother please don’t mention that’ – I don’t like this constant consciousness. I find it peculiar.”

“My God, we’ve agreed on something,” Alicia exclaimed.

The tide may be turning when it comes to Katie Price, but Katie Hopkins and Alicia getting along as a result? That’s quite the silver lining.

It’s Eviction Night! The countdown is on until either Calum, Nadia, Perez or Alicia hear their name called by Emma and they’re unceremoniously turfed out of the Celebrity Big Brother House.

And no sooner will they have gotten their breath back than we’ll be whisking them into the Bit on the Side studio to divulge all the dirtiest secrets from the House. And that includes answering some hard-hitting viewer questions, so it’ll be quite the welcome back into the real world.

It’s a bumper-length episode with a truly stellar line-up of guests, including not one but two former CBB winners: comedian and telly legend Jim Davidson, and Geordie Shore star and all-round Newcastle ambassador Charlotte Crosby. We’ll also be welcoming Union J belter and CBB superfan Jaymi Hensley. And as if Jaymi wasn’t enough, we’re going to top up your X Factor boyband needs with a sixteen-legged, scream-inducing pop behemoth – Stereo Kicks will be performing live!

Sounds like quite a show, right? Join Emma and Rylan, along with our second evictee, at 10pm tonight on Channel 5. 

It's finally eviction night, and the celebrity housemates are feeling nervous. Even Patsy, who isn't actually up for eviction, spent several hours agonising over her makeup ahead of tonight's live show. But for Calum, Nadia, Alicia and Perez, these few hours could be their last in the House. So how are they spending them?

Predictably, most of the last few hours have been spent primping and preening, so that all of our celebs can be sure they're looking their best for the live audience. And for one reason, despite living in a House full of mirrors, Nadia opted to do her makeup in front of a handheld one. 

Calum, meanwhile, took the opportunity to gaze at his reflection in the Enchanted Mirror for a bit. But the mirror on the wall didn't seem to have anything to say to him.

Packing Alicia's suitcase turned out to be a bigger task than it first appeared, and she had to enlist both Kavana and Katie Hopkins to help her get everything packed. We're still not sure she's tracked down every last sock.

And how did Perez deal with his pre-show nerves, you ask?

Well, he spent his evening dancing around the bathroom in knee-high socks with a bit of ribbon wrapped around his head. Because of course he did

Waking up on an eviction day, it’s hardly surprising that Day 17 began with HMs discussing who might have been in the firing line. By now we know exactly who walked – but we’ll come back to that later.

Elsewhere in the House Calum opened up about his feelings regarding Katie P nominating him. He also found time to be a little bit withering about her conversational skills with it. That wasn’t the only Pricey critique either – others seem to have less time for Katie P than they once did.

Aside from the gossip, a tittersome task saw Keith fail to raise a smile as he was asked to crack gags at his fellow housemates, believing that every chuckle helped earn a reward. What he didn’t know was that his pals were in on the joke and were tasked with NOT laughing at Cheggers’ jokes.

Given his usual gag-standard, it’s not surprising that they passed with flying colours.

Later on, with little else to do, it was back to the eviction gossip for Michelle and Katie H, who agreed they’d like to see our lovely Ms. Sawalha walk through the door that night.

Things cheered up a little as show-time loomed. Michelle gave Kav a stunning makeover, some sofa sports went down in the living area and, never one to let a dance chance go wanting, Perez had himself a little jig, all on his own. 

And then he went a bit odd in the garden while everyone else got ready for the main event. Eviction time arrived and, after Nadia and Calum were announced safe, it was Alicia that was forced to walk the walk.

The reactions were many and varied, but Perez's was probably the most flamboyant.

Aside from a little flirting from Calum and Cami - as well as the usual round of salacious gossiping - things wound down reasonably pleasantly and housemates, by their standards, had themselves a fairly early night without too much barking at one another.

Are things finally settling in the Celebrity Big Brother House? 

Frankly, we doubt it.

We doubt it very much.

Perhaps this is more a case of who hasn't said it, but the third disguised Diary Room quote is played to the housemates, and just as Keith was getting into his nap.

It’s been a fairly quiet, uneventful day in the Celebrity Big Brother House, in which everyone got along brilliantly. And if you believe that, you’ve clearly never watched an episode. So here’s a handy round-up of what really happened on Day 18…

Funnily enough, the day did get off to a relatively cordial start, when Perez learned how to meditate. Meanwhile, Michelle thought she’d figured out who’d be this year’s champion – is she right? And Cami taught Katie H a skill you’d never expect.

But the mood returned to the usual stressful levels when Nadia paid the price for befriending Perez. And the housemates were handed a shopping task, which brought its own set of problems and predicaments…

Nadia wasn’t feeling too confident in their success, while Calum, Katie H and Perez each got a rude awakening (two for Perez, in fact). And it all led to another Nadia/Katie H bust-up.

Another element of the task meant the housemates learned what you lot think of them, and that raised a few extra issues between Katie H and Nadia, before another ruck commenced between Perez and Cami, and – wait for it – yet another quarrel, this time between Perez and Katie H. Turns out, that much conflict is pretty hungry stuff.

Somewhat miraculously, all housemates made it to bed without a drop of blood being spilt. But with nominations on the horizon, plus the age-old tradition of compiling the shopping list, it’s safe to say things won’t be any more harmonious tomorrow…
