Most HMs are in the kitchen having pizza and lager.

They're all talking at once, and there are sound dips aplenty.

Bathroom

Jo asks Ben if he's getting ready. I think they're going to do a quiz or something.

Josie and Corin are together in the kitchen with Rachel
Rachel 'i think it's pretty intense, like'
Corin 'i can feel the atmosphere...' she says to Rachel 'i wish I had someone to kiss, don't you?'

Ben, Jo and Mario in the bedroom talking about what they're doing for the quiz/evening entertainment tonight.

Mario is lying face down on the bed, everything he says is muffled. He's talked about being bored today, he's anticipating failing the task because of how others have reacted, and he seems thoroughly fed up.

Josie's eating Rich Tea biscuits out of the packet in the kitchen.
Rachel asks if everyone's ready for the quiz
Corin moans 'oh, do we all have to play'

Mario is really moody tonight! Ben has just said as much.

Rachel shouts 'GIRLS VERSUS BOYS' for the quiz....then she says she wants to be on Mario's team because he knows a lot. Doh

Ben has a white dressing gown on, and has a tie on

John, JJ, Dave and Andrew are all sitting together.

Jo seems to be following Ben around. Ben is complaining about Mario's behaviour towards him, considering he's supposed to be his friend.
Jo 'you two have a funny relationship'
B 'he does it to others to, but mostly me because he knows I'm too nice to have a go at him'

I'm off to watch the HLs now

All of the housemates are in the bedroom having some late night banter. Dave and Steve are tossing rolled up socks at each other.

Steve spots a small midget clown running across the bedroom in the dark. Mario says he saw the small shadow too. Other housemates say they heard the footsteps. The housemates become paranoid, especially John-James who puts the lights on and begins searching for the clown.

Unable to find the small clown, the lights are turned off and the housemates settle down. Rachel remains frightened. 

Ben and Dave are bitching about John in the hut!
Ben's just said that John is miserable, and the best outcome for the house would be if he and Dave and Andrew were spared, meaning John gets evicted.

John, JJ are sitting on deckchairs outside the hut, and Corin is sitting on a towel beside them, painting her nails. The hms are trying to catch some sun, but it's cloudy.

Rachel's bickering with Mario about how she's cooking something......he criticised or commented on something and she bit back.

Josie has graciously informed Mario that Rachel's on her period.

Josie says 'are you all right Mario?' He says 'yeah, too many cooks'
They have a hug and a peck on the cheek.
Mario's saying he was trying to explain to Rachel he didn't want all the noodles to get clumped together in the sauce.
He says I'd rather walk away than fly into a rage over it.

 Josie says 'she's on her period, mind'
STFU Josie!!

Mario has taken over now in the kitchen, he says 'if it doesn't taste nice I'll say Rachel did it.'
Josie goes outside with a bowl of water, sits with the lads and starts peeling potatoes.
Jos talks to John about barbecues, he and his mates have them quite a bit.
Josie says 'do you have shrimps?' he sighs 'no.....that's pretty old'
Jos 'what, put another shrimp on the barbie'

I've tried to post this three times, going to go in a minute cos the site's annoying me.

John thinks Sam might be ejected in a couple of days because of the language he's using.

Er, pot, meet kettle??!

They're really riled about Sam's arrival

John 'i don't care about anything that's been said, but with Pepper comin in and makin out like she's whackin me off....'
Rachel's telling them not to worry.
Josie 'what about your mum, John'
John 'she'll know it's not true'

HMs called by BB to gather on sofas immediately.

Sam is instructed by Big Brother to collect the task envelope from the bedroom safe and then return to the living area.

Big Brother tells the housemates that they have incurred 86 fails.

Sam opens the envelope, revealing the number 88.  Therefore the housemates have passed this week's shopping task. All of the housemates jump around excitedly. 

Sam keeps getting changed into different outfits, he's wearing white leggings and a tutu (thin it's a task) JJ and john want to know if the reward is for all of them or just him
Sam talking about people that walk out the house, he thinks it's not fair on the viewers, Andrew say's you can't worry what the public think about it, you have to do whats right for you, JJ thinks there is nothing BB could do to him to make him want to leave, Josie agrees
Steve wishes they would hurry up with their messages from home, he thinks there will be tears today
Talk of what their nick names are in the papers, Dave thinks his will be cult leader
Andrew will be maths genius and John will be angry Aussie
Dave is making sausage sandwhichs, Corin thinks he should have cereal and toast
Rachel thinks today is going to be the best day ever
JJ thinks sam is on a task, Sam comes back from the DR and says they've got to pack Ben's things
Steve thinks theres more people to leave before Josie, he looks directly at sam, Josie laughs
Andrew telling Dave about what happens when you leave, BBLB and Big Mouth

Corin goes looking for Ben's belongings
sam still dressed in a tutu
Sam saying where he has worked, Spain, Italy and Greece
Dave say's BB needs to be told the hob isn't working either now, Sam has already told them
Dave tell's rachel she is so special
They've ordered 7 packs of jelly babies on the shopping list, Rachel can't wait for them to arrive
JJ telling Sam about the 3 newbies special task and the treats they got when they passed, sweets and cakes etc, they were on a sugar high afterwards
Sam ask's John and Josie if all they do is whisper sweet nothings at each other all day, Dave say's they are only up because you are here
Sam goes to get a drink and the bitching about him starts, John thinks he has watched alot of BB, John thinks he must have been in alot of the shows as Sam is copying his sayings

Mario and Jo talking about the band All Saints
Sam say's the floors are dirty in there, he lifts his foot up to show how drity his socks are, Steve tell's him to put his foot down and calls him a name (didn't catch what)

Jo telling Mario he has a sweet nature, she goes on to say she think's Jason orange (take that) is fit, she loves guys from Manchester

Sam and John filling a sock with rice to make a ball

Rachel cuddled up on the sofa with Dave
JJ goes to check if the fishfingers and sausages are done yet
Mario likes men that are 6ft, blue/green eyes and nice teeth, he likes masculine features, hairy chest etc
Jo likes a footballer that plays for Chelsea, Mario likes JJ but in 15 yrs when he's aged a bit
Jo would like it if they put a man in that is in his late 30's/40's
Jo talking about BB6, she think's that was a brilliant year, she's talking about Roberto (mario say's his name was marco)

Jo likes tall men, other than that anything goes, she's not fussy
Sam still dressed in his costume, he has a black top hat on
Fishfingers still not ready they are still cold
Josie asks Steve what is wrong, he say's he's just tired
The boys go outside to play with their new ball
Jo call's Mario a music snob, he thinks BB could have had any group in there but they sent in Jedward, it was chessy, BB isn't the X factor, they shouldn't have any groups in there trying to further their career, Jo says Jedward already have fans, i'm sure it wasn't them knocking on BB's door asking to go in

Jo talking to Mario about Ben, she says the cameras don't lie and it was probably why he was evicted, he used people for his own needs, Mario say's thats why we called him the player, he tell's her of an arguement he had with Ben where he said he thought Ben was using the show to get a job in the media
Mario feel's he hasn't get a role in the house and he wishes BB would give him a role and he would play it
Jo say's she thinks he liked Laura, but he dropped Rachel like a hot brick, she think's he was sly even Dave told her he was a user, she say's Ben was fawning all over her when she first came in, then he blanked her for a couple of days, she saw they way he was using people with her own eyes, she thinks BB would be happy to still have him her as he was a character
She thinks he used the show as a platform for his career, Mario say's you only have to look at the Springer shows he did, he think's he was a fake and creeped around people, he still like's him though

Jo thinks Ben was like a man she knows, a serial seducer, when she gets out she will still call him to take her to Ronnie Scotts, she thinks he will make it happen
Jo thinks it was shown how underhand and sly he was, Mario say's everything she has said is the same things he has said to Ben himself
She thinks he was playing Mario but Mario couldn't help himself
Jo think's she came in as a cougar and she hasn't chased anyone so she will be on her way out
Mario say's he's 70% cracked John but he won't get anywhere while he's with josie
Jo and Mario want some prey to seduce, they both like JJ but think he's too young

Great work guys

Dave has just been saying 'I hope I don't go'
Sam says 'I hope you go'
Dave says 'well you'll be out within the next week anyway'

Dave seems to be trying to keep himself in check.

Mario feels uncomfortable, that he's damaged his integrity by replacing himself with Dave for eviction. He's sitting by the DR and looks upset. Jo is trying to calm his nerves, she ruffles his hair and tells him not to worry.
Jo says if Mario's conscience is clear he has nothing to worry about.....maybe she's talking about something Sam has inferred. I don't know.

Dave seems bothered about the fact that Mario flipped a button (one side red, one side white) and wouldn't tell the others which colour was which before he flipped it.
John James is stirring the pot now.

John James 'you could have saved yourself a lot of drama by telling who was which colour'
Mario 'I hadn't decided'
J 'at what point did you decide?!'
M 'before I flipped it'

Mario accuses John of throwing daggers with his eyes, this is turning into a 'John James special' argument. He's like a dog with a bone.

John James is saying 'you asked me for my opinion so I gave it to you, I didn't say anything til you did'

Dave 'it's just an error'

Sam to Dave 'at the end of the day, who wouldn't want to put you up?'

I don't like the way they're calling Mario 'Mole' at every opportunity here.

Mario 'we're supposed to be friends, but if you're doubting what I did....'

lots of sound dips.

Dave 'I would never put that nomination save down to a random element, cos I wouldn't want my mates shafted'
'you're saying I'm your friend, but i was the one you chose'

FFS this is making me really angry. John James is repeating the same thing 'you asked for my opinion' over and over again.

Jo to John 'if you'd had to pick somebody off that board, then how you came by that conclusion, other people could disagree with that, there's no wrong or right'

John still banging on about Mario asking him for his opinion, he says he didn't question his motives..
Mario 'you were giving me daggers'

Then John says he shouldn't have asked him for his opinion because it's irrelevant

Dave 'the thing is mole, you were asked which colour was which and you said you wouldn't tell'
Mario 'I wouldn't want to know.....what difference would it make?'

Mario is hurt that no-one believes he had set the evictees to the two sides of the button. He's saying what kind of a friendship do we have if you're questioning me and saying I'm lying to you.

Dave is trying to make Mario feel guilty now.

John 'are we basing this on girls or guys, or friendship?'

John James keeps on at Mario.

Mario says 'oh well I've made a monumental mistake then'

Mario says he could say something to get them all in trouble and start talking about his nominations for the past 5 weeks if they really want to analyse friendships in here.

Jo's trying to mediate, she says 'this is just going round and round, we need to draw a line under it

Dave starts it up again by saying Mario opened himself up to debate by not stating who was on which side of the button he flipped.
Dave 'you gotta go what you gotta do'

Mario says if he's talking about being loyal he'll break the nomination code and tell all.

Dave 'i was surprised you chose me in terms of friendship, but you gotta do what you gotta do, as long as you got a clear conscience, that's fine, i'm not bothered about being up, doesn't matter to me'

Dave 'you had a system which worked for you, I wouldn't have done it....he goes on about how he'd ring-fence his friends and not put them up'
he's really sticking the knife in.

Jo 'it's making him feel worse, everyone had a system to decide it and you're making him feel worse by talking about friendship'

Action moves to the garden

BB tells Josie off for not wearing her microphone.

Back to lounge.

Jo's reasoning with John James that there would always be controversy over today's S&R task, whoever was put up.
Jo 'there's no right or wrong'
John James 'there would have been people that I wouldn't switch, I would've thought Dave would be one of those people, but I was wrong'

The indignation of John and Dave is astounding.

Dave says he loves Mario and doesn't bear a grudge.(yeah right)

Mario sits on the floor waiting to get into the Diary Room.

Mario sits up on a chair now instead by the DR.

Sam is trying to swat a fly.

Garden:
Josie 'is he alright'
Dave says 'he's a chivalrous man, he didn't want to choose you(to JJ) cos you only been here two weeks, so it was me and Steve, he decided to flip a button...' sound dip.

Living area:
John James still talking at Mario. I'm not LUTing it as he's said it fifty million times already!

Mario's body language suggests that he wants John James to STFU now. His legs are forming a bit of a shield against him on the chair and he's turning away slightly. BB please let him in the Diary Room!

Mario's been in the Diary Room. He comes out, Andrew asks after him and Mario says he asked BB to reverse the S&R process and leave him as nominee but they refused. (Dave and John have really done a guilt trip on him.)

Mario goes to put TCP on his bruises(probably from the S&R task)

John James is STILL going on about it in the bathroom with Josie. saying 'it wouldve been quicker for him to say Steve Red, Dave White rather than say I haven't decided'

The camera is on Andrew lying down, but all the sound is coming from Sam wrestling with Rachel on the sofa. Lots of 'pllleeeasse noooo' from Rach but she doesn't sound like she means it.

Steve and Jo are sitting together in silence on the smoking bench. Steve says 'it's funny watching people innit'
Dave comes out and says he feels like Margaret Thatcher outside no10 after the Falklands War.
Steve says 'Margaret the milk snatcher Thatcher'
Dave says Steve and Jo look like lovers on a park bench. They laugh.

Steve asks if Mario's alright now
Dave makes a face and goes 'I don know' 'he's gotta live with his actions aint  he, if he can't theres sommat wrong'
Dave says 'whether I  nominate him is irrelevant' (OH REALLY?!)
Dave is really riled at what's happened today and the mask is starting to slip in the garden now. He's starting to use words like 'stupid' with regard to Mario's actions.

They all seem to hold Dave in such high reverence. Dave has a suspicion that Mario thinks he was nommed and put Dave up as a result of his suspicion.

Dave using the FRIEND argument again. 'It's the easy way out really, thinkin oh Dave will be okay'

Dave says 'you gotta nominate the person you get on less well with in the house'

'he's gotta live with his decision, I had to live with the two times I had to do it'

'all I know is both times I did it, I went in the DR and talked about those people, and when I got the opportunity to vote them I did'

'nothing random about it'

'we're just processing what happened, lets call a spade a spade'

Keep digging that hole, Dave.........

Steve and Dave now plotting that they will nominate Mario next week for today's events.

The bitching campaign against Mario is starting now.

Jo is trying to explain about pressure on people, etc.

Dave 'But all that does Jo is bring out what's already there'

She doesn't argue with him.

Topic of conversation shifts......perhaps they realised how they were sounding. Now they talk food and holidays.

Kitchen
Sam is talking to the others about the Ignore task and saying he watched clips before he went into the house of the brass band etc.

Mario and Andrew are sitting at the table.
JJ is cooking I think......not sure.

John and Josie laying down near the DR. Well Josie is laying down and John is propped up against her, her arm is round him...it reminds me of how a chimp carries her baby.
John is telling the others how Josie told him how many guys shes slept with, how she tried to disguise it from the microphones......he says she said 'one one' so there you have it guys, Josie's slept with eleven men.



I have to stop watching LF now.......it's winding me up so bad, lol. Gonna go and watch some comedy on BBC2, byeeee

23:16	Big Brother announces that the store room is now open, and the group rush in to grab two bottles of wine and 17 cans of lager. "This is the business!" exclaims Jo.
23:14	The group in the living room are talking about East Is East. "It's the funniest film that you'll probably ever watch," says Steve.
23:11	"I'd like to be here 'til the final week, just for the experiences that are to come. I don't want to be watching from home thinking, 'I wish I was there'," JJ tells John James and Andrew, as the trio sit chatting at the carousel.
23:09	She asks him. "I won't be able to confirm or deny this request," he replies. "I haven't done anything mean to you today. I haven't done anything mean to you yesterday." She says that he has.
23:08	"Why me? Why me Sam?" asks Josie. David suggests that the newcomer might be on a task to wind her up. "You reckon?" she asks. "Ask him," he replies.
23:07	Jo tells Steve and Mario that she speaks a bit of Polish.
23:05	Josie wonders why Sam has been targeting her in particular. "If anything I think it would be because he knows that you're a focus in the house, he knows that you're a potential winner, and he may think that me and you could be a focus... which is why he's trying to become in between us," reasons John James.
23:03	Jo, Rachel, John James and Josie are discussing Sam. "He's very good at twisting things," says Jo. "Some things that he's got are probably the same as me. That's why I probably understand him a bit better... he's smart. He's real smart... He knows what he's doing, definitely."
22:59	Sam is waiting to be let into the Diary Room.
22:57	John James is talking about how he'll deal with questions from the press when he leaves the house.
22:55	Corin says she think it'll rain tonight.
22:54	JJ asks Mario how he's feeling after today's 'Save and Replace' task. He tells him he feels OK.
22:52	Jo says she's been 'talking a load of dribble' to Big Brother today.
22:48	Jo tells Andrew he has an authoritative voice.
22:46	Mario and Dave are discussing their favourite tasks to date.

watched quite a bit last night as the Hms were so lively, so I might as well give an update!

The Hms were given more alcohol than usaul last night and some (Corin and Rachel) were noticeably drunk) Mario was talking to Jo about putting up Dave and he still feels bad about it, saying that he will throw the task if hes up again.

Most of the HMs ended up in the pool and BB were remarkably tolerant of the noise given the late hour ( 12.15 real time) Steve moans about the noise and Rachel tells him to 'get his legs off and get in'  Steve, Dave and Jo stay out of the water. Jo is worried about getting her weave wet and knows that Sam will chuck water at her.
The pool crowd entice Corin into the pool just as BB call a halt to the fun and send them indoors.
Dave is still sore about Mario putting him up. Steve feels that Mario is trying to target the older characters as the end approaches. Jo says that she would want all the 'oldies' to stay till the end but that if she had come in at the beginning she would 'fight all the way' to be in the final. Dave says that there are more important things than winning, such as 'loyalty and friendship' (opinion: a dig at Mario) Dave caries on in the same vein until Sam comes in from the shower. He says 'Mario had to pick someone and he picked the biggest prick in the house'   Opinion: Sam is only half joking here. Dave says that Sam is on a mission to wind him up until Friday and says he won't let Sam get to him.

Elsewhere Corin is a bit worried that she is drunk and might make a fool of herself and tells Mario to look out for her. They are joined by JJ2 who asks Corin if shes always this much of a lightweight. She replies that she has had several glasses of wine and a can of lager. Mario leaves and is replaced by Dave who is cosying up to Corin and saying what good friends they are. Corin confirms this and gives Dave a kiss on the head (but hey shes pissed!)
 I went to bed after this.

Rachel and John in the task room, John wants to give up on their part of the task (they are sitting on chairs in the task room dressed in long gowns) he doesn't want to sit in their for what could be his last hours in the house, Rachel trys to talk him out of it but he's still not happy about it, he tell's Rachel she has a foghorn for a voice but he doesn't dislike her, he goes to the DR to see if Rachel fails if he leaves, Dave Mario and Steve on the sofas can't believe he's givving up already, he's only been in there for 20 mins, John returns and tell's Rachel if he leaves she fails as well, Rachel decides she will stay for abit, John asks Rachel if she is worried about Friday, she say's she's only bothered about the booing crowd, John tell's her he knows she nominated him and he knows who else did, Rachel say's he can't be sure about that, John say's he's surprised that mario swapped himself for Dave
Dave and Steve on the sofas working out what day it is, Steve say's it's the start of week 9 that means we've made £1710 from being in here, Mario asks if you get paid every Friday, Steve says yes but the public don't know about that
John and Rachel still in the task room, Rachel goes to the loo and John starts waving his hands about saying she doesn't stop talking (he knows the other HMs are watching on the plasma) he say's he can't stand being in there for 24 hrs, his back will get sore if he sits for too Long (he was quite happy on the see saw though)

Josie, Andrew, JJ and Sam in the bedroom practising a dance
Rachel and John in task room, Rachel talking about U Tube, John laying down with his eyes shut
Dave in the garden looking for his socks, he can't understand where they've all gone
Hms in the bedroom watching a DVD to learn their dance, Mario and Corin watching
Rachel still chatting on with no response from John (she's going to do his head in)
Rachel can hear noises, John says it's raining, Rachel says it's thundering, John says he is going to kick the door down if BB don't let him out to get his jackets out of the rain, he shouts come on (shot of jackets in the garden in the rain)  John keeps shouting for the door to be opened, BB's not answering him
Johns banging on the task room door (while checking himself in the mirror)
(camera pans in on Johns wet coat in the garden)

Johns having a shave in the task room
Rachel thinks it's really cruel that they have done this to them
Rachel shouts to Corin to take the clothes in, she asks what Corin is doing, is she dancing in her task
John asks why Rachel thinks it's cruel, she says they've got no fresh air and it's a waste of 2 days in the BB house, they should have picked people that don't want to do nothing all day
Josie, Andrew, JJ and sam still practising in the BR
Rachel complains her stomach is rumbling, she wishes she had brought an apple in with her
Corin sitting at a desk counting money
