Day 13: Today's task... Gods and Mortals
After much baffled sniffing around the podium and vines, the housemates have been put out of their misery - or rather Martin and Julie have been put out of their misery. The remaining eleven have not been as lucky... Mwa-ha-ha. For this week's shopping task, housemates have been split into Gods and Mortals. Gods will live the life of luxury on Mount Olympus (the large task room and garden) whereas Mortals will banished from going outside as they toil down on Earth (inside the House). The Mortals will compete against each other in a series of trials, after each trial it will be down to the Gods to decide which Mortal pleased them the most. This Mortal will then become a God and join Mount Olympus. Gods must choose their new godly recruits wisely as at the end of the task they themselves will compete in the final trial, passing this trial will secure a luxury shopping budget for the House. Big Brother has selected Julie to become Aphrodite, the Goddess of love and Martin to become Zeus, King of the Gods. This deity duo will be given an βall seeing eyeβ, through which they will be able to watch over the Mortals down on Earth. They must not let the Mortals know that they have this power. If the Mortals struggle as much with their challenges as they have done changing into their rags (costume options for Mortals suck) this will be an entertaining task. We shall keep you updated as the two new realms collide

The Gods will be given an βall seeing eyeβ. Through this eye they will be able to watch over the mortals down on Earth. However, they are NOT permitted to let the mortals know that they have this power. DAY ONE HIT ONE β HUMAN STATUES β TRIAL OF RESILIANCE All mortals have been turned into statues and must stand on the wobbly statue plinths. On the sound of the golden horn they will compete to stay on the plinths for as long as possible. At the end of the trial the Gods will select one mortal that pleased the Gods the most to join them on Mount Olympus to become a God. For this trial Big Brother is providing the Gods with the power of the elements which they can use to test the mortals. Gods can use these powers on Housemates of their choice. Big Brother will instruct the Gods when they can use the following elemental powers:
EARTH Gods can sling mud at the mortals. Gods must take the mud and make it into balls and throw it
.
WATER Aphrodite should operate the ancient stone water cannon using the trigger and aiming the cannon at the mortals. Zeus can use the rack of ancient stone water guns on the mortals and water bombs.
WIND Gods must activate the wind by pressing the button.
FIRE Gods can throw the fireballs at the mortals. Gods can retrieve the balls and fire them as many times as they wish
.
HIT TWO β THE ALTER OF SACRIFICE β TRIAL OF DEVOTION Mortals will compete in The Altar of Devotion. This is a trial of Sacrifice. On a huge stone tablet are eight sacrifices that Mortals must make to prove their devotion to the Gods. Mortals will be permitted ten minutes to decide amongst themselves which Mortal will make which sacrifice. Once the time has elapsed Mortals will take turns to approach the βAlter of Devotionβ in the garden and declare their sacrifice leaving any relevant items on the altar. Once Mortals have declared their sacrifice, Mortals will have to go through with that sacrifice until further notice. If Mortals fail to carry out their sacrifices, all Mortals will be punished. Once all Mortals have declared their sacrifice the Gods will choose one Mortal whose sacrifice pleased the Gods the most. This Mortal will become a God. The sacrifices are as follows: Β· βI HEREBY SACRIFICE MY WORLDLY GOODSβ (must give up five outfits)
Β· βI HEREBY SACRIFICE MY VANITYβ (lose 10 makeup/beauty products if girl or Julian lose all grooming products if man)
Β· βI HEREBY SACRIFICE MY INDEPENDENCEβ (the Gods pick another Mortal for them to be handcuffed to)
Β· βI HEREBY SACRIFICE MY DIGNITYβ (must pour fish guts over their head)
Β· βI HEREBY SACRIFICE MY GLUTTONYβ (given a pack of basic rations this is all they can eat)
Β· I HEREBY LOSE MY RIGHT TO PRIVACY (they have their nominations read out β this will be two sets of nominations)
Β· I HEREBY SACRIFICE MY STATUS (must do all the cleaning and cooking for the Mortals including all washing up)
Β· βI HEREBY SACRIFICE MY BEAUTYβ (must wear a bald cap and glue on warts to their face)

Wednesday.
This task is very similar to the rich /poor divide.BB3
I hated the rich and poor divide - thought it ended up as a miserable situation and the rich side missed the poor contestants.
Hope this new try is more fun
I'm at work on Wed
I HEREBY LOSE MY RIGHT TO PRIVACY (they have their nominations read out β this will be two sets of nominations)
