Day 29: The Dex-trous heart

So, last night, Dexter told Daley that he has feelings for Charlie. And then he told Charlie about his feelings. And now, er, nobody's talking about it.

We've been watching avidly all day, waiting for some kind of development. Would Dexter try to start up that conversation again? Would Charlie talk to Jackie about it? Would Callum have something to say?

Well, in a word, no. We thought we were in for a treat of the emotional-outburst variety when Dexter asked Gina "do you think she even actually likes me?" but Gina scotched that by basically ignoring the question. Dexter pressed on ever so slightly by telling Gina that he feels like he knows Ms Travers very well, having shared a house for the past 28 days. Gina agreed that 28 days is quite a while.

And it's not as if Charlie and Dexter have been avoiding each other, either. They've had several chats today, about the task, and about the House and about everything but the fact that Dexter spilled his love-feelin' thoughts. Could it be that Charlie still doesn't believe this proclamation of Dex's yearnings? When he admitted his feelings to her, she didn't accept it for a second, saying she thought he was lying, and today they had a chat about Dexter's behaviour in the House, where Charlie informed him that people don't now what to think of Dexter because "there's a mystery in your eyes."

Blimey, this came out of nowhere and has quickly become as mysterious as Dexter's eyes. More on this, as it develops, if we can work out what the bleedin' 'eck is going on!

4:43pm: Dexter and Charlie are finally talking about his feelings for her

4:46pm: Callum joins Dexter & Charlie, cutting short their chat. "I've never felt so uncomfortable in my life" says Dexter

Cabin fever?

It's boiling over nicely.
