Edit: I think Ollie`s giving Jim a Simon Cowell tan

Thanks Scotty

6.44pm: The task is nearly over; the HMs have given it their all, but have they impressed the judges?
7.07pm: Ollie and Sam are improvising. Sam says they went on holiday to Marbs. Ollie corrected her to Barbs. Obvs.
7.21pm: The task is over but how do you think the housemates did?
7.39pm: The HMs are in their element after the task. @TheDappy's rapping, @LeeRyanMusic's singing, @ollielocke's wearing trousers
7.50pm: "Whenever we go, we always have the best night ever." Not sure you can have more than one best night ever, Casey..
You can't keep a good housemate down, and following his unexpected exit from the Big Brother House Lionel Blair was all too happy to chat to his fans on Facebook. Here are his answers to your quesions.
Lionel Blair: Hello there! Lord Lionel Blair the 1st here! I'll be answering your questions for the next 15 minutes - keep them coming!
Jo Carter: You're a lovely man Lionel, but why do you believe what Lee told you? He hasn't been truthful all through CBB; he's lying about loads of things! How can he con an 82-year-old wise man of the world?
LB: I believed him at the time, but since I've been out, I've heard that it was not true. She did not say the words "let's keep it going for publicity" and I'm going to apologise to her when she comes out.
Danny Day: Did you secretly enjoy your 18+ task?
LB: Haha! It was me being something that I've never been before. Big Brother said "go for it", so I went for it! I hope you were entertained by it.
Becky Derbyshire: Who do you think (as a viewer, not a housemate) is making the best TV? And would you go back in if BB asked you to?
LB: I was hoping it was me! Now, I think Ollie.
Mikolai Szybkowski: How hard was it to get on with younger housemates in the house, with the age gap?
LB: Not at all. In fact, I prefered being with them rather than the older housemates. I found them very entertaining and we had lots of fun.
Shaylee Rogers: If you had to go in the bolt hole with one of the ladies of the house, who would you choose?
LB: Because I'm a married man, I'd like to go in with Liz, because she'd be interesting to talk to about journalism and other things that I don't know about.
Shaylee Rogers: Who would have been the worst person for you to be handcuffed to?
LB: Jim. I don't think he's that fond of me. The other one would be Dappy because he runs around the house so much and it would be very tricky to keep up with him!
Tammy Craggs: Do you have any regrets from being in the house? We thought you were a fab house mate.
LB: Not really. Even the over 18 room - no regrets!
Mary-Jane Hart: What was your favourite thing about being in the big brother house?
LB: Going into an experience that I've never had in my entire life. It's totally different from anything I've ever done, and it was a real challenge. But being a pro, I did what I was told was Big Brother. Other people in the house... did not. I think the thing that is lacking in some people is discipline.
Tom Creswick: Was it weird being in cbb for real after acting in it for the extras special?
LB: Yes, it was! Very surreal. The Extras episode was interesting, some of it was very accurate. Ricky Gervais gave a speech about the paparazzi and Big Brother - it was just brilliant. We did two takes because the first take made me cry.
Anita Sherrif: What do you think of Dappy, as I'm hoping he will win?
LB: I would love Dappy to have a chance of winning. I never thought I would meet anybody like Dappy, and I thought that I probably wouldn't like somebody like that. But he happens to be one of the sweetest, nicest, caring guys and I loved him.
Lucie Jones: Were you nervous when the doors opened last night ? I was the first person you saw, and you shook my two sons' hands; true gent, Lionel.
LB: Very nervous. But the reaction from the crowd almost made me want to cry. It was wonderful.
Sky Lloyd: Who would you like to win Lionel?
LB: Ollie or Sam. Sam is a good role model for young girls - she has her business, like Luisa, and I admire them both for that. Ollie because he happens to be one of the best looking people in the country, and the ladies will adore him.
Emily Truby: Love you Lionel! You were amazing! What was your favourite task?
LB: Going into the most annoying room in the world with Luisa - very funny!
Sharon Slattery: What did you realy think of Luisa? I think she was disrespectful to you.
LB: She was never disrespectful to me. I tried to match her curse for curse! I think she appreciated this, and when we made friends, we agreed that we'd always talk to each other like that! We love each other deep down.
Lisa-Marie Savidge: What did you miss from the outside world while being in the house?
LB: My watch. It was tough never knowing what the time was, so that I could picture where my wife was at any given time.
Misty Hosier: Do you believe Jim is completely innocent? I love him to death but are WE missing something as to why the girls hate him so much? Or are they just crazy?
LB: I think he loves women... but he doesn't LIKE them very much.
Thank you all ever so much for getting in touch with me. I'm a little sorry that I've left the house, but it's been smashing speaking to you all. Please keep in touch with me via twitter - @thelionelblair ... which I'm planning on changing to Lord Lionel Blair The 1st!
One last thought from me. I will never understand the fashion of having your jeans half way down your bum. It just looks uncomfortable.

8.11pm: The HMs are peckish, so they're having.. um.. cereal. You know it's the evening, right guys? Guys?
8.26pm: @TheDappy has been singing the same song to himself for about ten minutes. Someone get this man into a studio
8.45pm: While they await their reward for today's task, the HMs are having a nap. Other than Lee and Luisa, who're gossiping
Tonight's #CBB is on at the slightly curious time of 9.45pm, so get that alarm clock set - you've got one more hour until go time!
9.02pm: There's a party in FULL swing. Glasses are clinking, nibbles are being nibbled and there will be dancing BY GOD THERE WILL
9.20pm: The HMs are discussing the possibility of letters from home. Liz is concerned: "My dogs can't write, though!"
9.40pm: See, told you there'd be dancing. So far we've had All Rise and Baby One More Time.. It's getting REAL in the house
9.41pm: Housemates are tearing up the dancefloor.
It's time for #CBB, now on C5 so we'll take a break and let you enjoy the drama.
Thanks for all the updates ladies
Thanks for all the updates ladies
Talk has turned to scuba diving. Jim is explaining Boyle's Law.
---------------------------------------------------------
Dappy will be in his ELEMENT there - Surely a man of his intellect must have got an A++ in Physics!
10.51pm: The HMs are gathered in the living room, talking about the intensely complex politics of high school crushes
11.06pm: @LeeRyanMusic wants to get married in an enchanted wood, "like down in Devon." What have we not been told about Devon
11.10am: 'Sexual Healing' is on the stereo. The HMs have started dancing in the manner that we have come to expect from them
11.24pm: The HMs are dancing and singing along to 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' but they don't remember the words. Quite awkward
11.42pm: The party is still in full swing. It's not quite as wild as last night, but there's still plenty of time
12.02am: The housemates are being so louche. They look like a series of decadent fashion centrefolds
12.15am: Apparently the term for someone who dresses up too much to go fishing is a "tackle tart." Thanks
12.31am: Talk has turned to scuba diving. Jim is explaining Boyle's Law. We are on the edge of our seats
12.44am: Talk has turned to The Bermuda Triangle. Lee has suggested it may be where Atlanta is. Interesting theory
Day 16: In the Limelight task
Housemates stepped up and showed off just it was that made them celebrities in Big Brother's talent show style task.
Dappy presented an acoustic version of his hit, 'No Regrets', Liz cast her fashionista's eye over the housemates' clobber, Lee composed a ditty about his time in the House, Casey got in character and performed a monologue as glamour model Racy Casey and Ollie and Sam improvised a constructed reality scene under the direction of Big Brother.
Jim, Linda and Luisa were the judging panel.
Housemates really pushed the boat out with their performances.
And the final scores are in. The judges dished out some high scores and much to his delight Dappy scored a whopping 28 out of 30 for his show piece but it was our reality stars who stole the crown.
Liz came in bottom of the pile, followed by Casey and Lee but it was Ollie and Sam who picked up 29 points and a well deserved win.
As a reward the housemates have been given a party with lots of what Linda describes as 'nibbly bit's', drinks and Dappy's song pumped into the living room. Result!
