12.14am: Louie is not amused. Letter shredding is rumbling on

12:22am: Wait, everyone! Charlotte as "a valid point to make!!!

12:31am: If you'd like to relive Vicky's impression of Charlotte, here it is in GIF form: http://d3j5vwomefv46c.cloudfront.net/photos/large/807255027.gif?1378683011 … #bbuklivefeed

12:39am: Looks like Mario is staying far and away from the drama

12:50am: 5 days to the end, indeed, Carol. Who'da thunk it would go so quickly?

1:22am: Isn't Lauren's sleeping mask just lovely.

1.35am: When will Carol and Louie head to bed?

1:48am: And off they go to bed! Night night, housemates. Sleep tight!

Week 3 round up: Mr Big and the eviction surprise

Mr Big was pulling the strings at the start of Week 3 as Carol, Lauren and Mario were sent to the slammer. But all was not what it seems and the prisoners were infact languishing in the lap of luxury while the other housemates completed tasks including sacrificing their food and gobbling some gross grub.

Courtney shed her clothes in favour of a boiler suit earning herself a one-on-one with her hubby and Dustin screeched his way through a special performance.

Housemates were still down on their luck on Day 13 as Courtney kicked up a stink over her overalls which riled the prisoners. Abz perked up a sullen House after he was tasked with performing a 5ive hit five times! Bruce and Vicky brought their on screen alter egos to life in a special episode of Big Brother Street.

All this was small potatoes compared to BB's big bombshell – Carol was fake evicted from the House!

Carol kicked off Day 14 in the comfort of the luxury room and spent her day seeing whether or not the housemates were missing her. Charlotte turned psychic and Big Brother got the housemates to Pull Their Weight  - a task which proved girls were better than boys.

Before they knew it, it was time for another eviction and Sophie was shown the door. Carol returned to the House and was rewarded by having to make a killer nomination. She picked Courtney. Face to face noms threw another spanner in the works with seven staring down the barrel of an exit on Friday.

There was plenty of chat on Day 15 but the drama was dominated by Louis. Our light footed fellow was given a secret mission and convinced his fellow housemates he was having a boozy meltdown. He was rewarded for his showstopper with a bouquet of flowers.

Courtney got a telling off at the start of Day 16 for her wine fuelled antics the previous night. Her mood was much improved by a megalols task from BB – The Only Way is Geordie.  Coached by Charlotte and Mario, Courtney and Dustin made constructed reality gold.

Sadly this was to be Dustin's swan song as he and Bruce were booted out in a double eviction! We didn't see that one coming.

And then there were eight. Day 17 revealed Vicky had slept in her eviction outfit much to Louie's amusement. Vanessa Feltz made a guest appearance hosting BBFM and gave the housemates a proper grilling. Abz wowed the House by turning an apple into a swan.

The end of the week spelled double trouble for the housemates who spent Day 18 tethered together. There was more misery as a whopping five names were in the frame for Wednesday's last eviction. But this meant the remaining three Abz, Charlotte and Lauren were definitlely in the final. High fives guys!

Big Brother wasn't done though - there were letters from home in need of shredding and the pairs were given a proper dilemma deciding whose would be destroyed.

With five days to go, the end is in sight but with BB at the helm it's bound to be a bumpy ride to the final.  

9.51am: Louie and Abz pass and pause to acknowledge each other. Both with shaved heads and blue robes - they could be brothers.

10.05am: We tried to think of a caption for this but didn't get beyond the idea of faulty mirrors. Ideas?

Day 19: Five face eviction - vote lines now open!

They've been speculating their little cotton socks off since Bruce and Dustin were booted out on Friday about whether or not they'd have another eviction to face before the Finale. Yesterday Big Brother told them that they would indeed.

In pairs, the housemates nominated - and now the results are very much in and the vote lines are open!

Courtney, Louie and Vicky had barely gotten over their survival from Friday's eviction when they were told they'd face the public vote again.

While Courtney and Louie have been up for eviction more times than they've had hot dinners, it's Mario and Carol's first time up for eviction. Blimey.

This, of course, means that Charlotte, Abz and Lauren are through to the Finale! Well done, guys!

You'll probably be looking to vote. To save your fave from our unfortunate five, you can visit the voting page and have your say. Phone lines are officially open!

Rylan prepares for his grand entrance into the Celebrity Big Brother House for today's task, and he's taking two lucky ex-celebrity housemates with him. Watch all the exclusive behind the scenes action right here.

Day 19: Big Brother's Bitchfest

Housemates better be in the mood for talking because this afternoon Big Brother expects them to debate like they've never debated before. A certain Mr. Rylan Clarke is planning on presenting a chat show discussing topics concerning the House – and it's set to feature some very special guests.

In the living area, a chat show desk will be set up and Rylan will be introduced by Big Brother as the host. Carol will be compelled to join him and then a couple of surprise guests will be revealed. Danielle and Sophie are going back into the House for a short while, to talk about all things housemate.         

Rylan will lead the discussion, focusing on all the current House affairs. Danielle and Sophie - who have since watched the show and have been quoted in various interviews – will be the focus, with Carol invited to join in and respond to their post-eviction thoughts.

These discussion points are just the start as the studio audience (the other celebrity housemates) will be given the chance to ask questions and put their opinion across. We have a feeling this one's going to get a little bit angry.

3.54pm: Our own @RylanClark is in the Diary Room! HMs have been called to the sofas and there's a big desk in the living area..

4.01pm: Wow. A daytime talkshow has kicked off in the House. Big Brother's Bitchfest is on! Familiar faces are on the panel.

4.05pm: The #BBBitchfest has begun. Ex-HMs Danielle and Sophie are on the panel. It's already got nasty

4.17pm: Most of the talk so far at the #BBBitchfest has concerned Courtney's flirtatious nature. It's a heated debate so far

4.20pm: The next question addresses whether or not celebs need a talent to be well known. Carol's kicking off with her thoughts.

4.25pm: "Celebrity"'s discussed. Abz says the word used should be "entertainer" as it's about what people like to see, not talent.

4.27pm: Ack. Charlotte's crying. The show stops in its tracks. Rylan gets her back on track and she's hitting us with an opinion.

4.33pm: Lauren's talking about her interests, including singing - the mention of which makes @RylanClark sit up

4.41pm: The #BBBitchfest is covering HMs picking on each other. Sophie thinks it's gone too far but Carol's defending all HMs.

4.46pm: Danielle says everyone seems more "frazzled" since she and Sophie left. "There's a different tension in the room".

4.50pm: Danielle and Louie are falling out big time now.

"Stop trying to raise your profile" he tells her.

4.57pm: You wouldn't want to be a fly on the wall in there right now. Danielle and Sophie are mixing it up

5.03pm: The #BBBitchfest is over!

Sophie and Danielle return to the outside world and Rylan says a quick goodbye. That was fun!

Louie is giving Carol a workout.

Courtney has made stock in good old fashioned BB style. Can you guess what she did wrong? Louie is fuming but amused.

Well done @MutedPenguin.

Courtney did indeed put a stock cube in the kettle!

7.08pm: Housemates have been told to dress to impress. Charlotte is concerned because she has wet hair.

7.18pm: Fear not. Big Brother switched on the appliances. Charlotte is drying her hair. Phew.

7.29pm: Abz appears to be wearing a bedspread. Let's hope he is going to get changed. That won't impress BB.   

7.38pm: It's pizza time. And Big Brother is cranking up the tunes.

Here we go!

meanwhile in the house [ not a happy house tonight]

8.33pm: Louie and Mario are in the garden. They are not in a dancing mood

0.08pm: Carol is heading for bed. She says everyone is doing her head in. Charlotte is hitting the sack too

10.31pm: Vicky, Mario and Louie are still up. Louie is heading to the Diary Room

10.50pm: In the kitchen, Mario is taking his loaf out of the oven.

11:10pm. The lights are still on in the bedroom, but Carol has found a way to get some kip

Day 19 round-up: Time for a heated debate

After last night's blow-up housemates awoke to find the two factions – Blonde Ambition and The Reprobates - were stronger than ever making for a fair bit of awkwardness.

Never one to pour oil on troubled waters, Big Brother decided to stir up the House with a task. It was time to hurl the cat among the pigeons and BB sent in some familiar faces to power up a very special panel in Big Brother's Bitchfest. Take a look behind the scenes.

Rylan Clarke did his best Carol Vorderman and was joined by ex-celeb BB housemates Danielle and Sophie to spark up some slanging matches. Topics covered included; 'should an older woman act their age', 'flirting', 'cheating' and 'do celebrities need a talent to justify their fame'? Things got pretty feisty.

Mario, Charlotte and Carol were in an analytical mood post task and had a few words to say about Lauren.

Later housemates were rewarded with pizza and a music but there was a serious lack of party spirit and the first of the gang started to head to bed at 10.30pm! By midnight only Blonde Ambition remained, but they had a new recruit. That's right, Vicky was welcomed into the fold and the threesome enjoyed some slumber party style fun.

With so many housemates having an early night we fully expect them to be on top of their game when they wake up on Day 20.

10.13am: Louie's soaking up some rays. Through his hand.

10.30am: Vicky and Charlotte are having a chuckle as they dry their hair.

Seems bridges have been built
