Big Brother - Week 4

Here's our Big Brother blogging teams second weekly bumper catch-up blog. Agree with us? Disagree with us? We want to know what you think...

Saturday

Well, given the ability to evict Wolfy was cruelly taken out of our hands in midweek, we were handed the next best thing by seeing her plummet off her perch as the fans’ favourite with a resounding chorus of boos from the crowd and also getting two of the main players in the anti-Wolfy crew getting to plot against her in the safe house. 

I really hope that Gina and Dexter use their powers wisely to overthrow the uncouth fishmonger and don’t go overboard and end up victimising her, because we all know that’s the card she plays best.
The dastardly champagne-sipping duo in their posh pad are seeing that people’s opinions are changing, with Dan, the twins and Charlie all paid up members of the anti-Wolfy crew and hopefully they can manipulate situations so the rest of the house are banging down the door to join the others who are seeing Wolfy for what she is.
Elsewhere, prior to Dexter’s “eviction” we saw him get a formal warning for the most innocuous of comments to Sophie, proving again that Jade Goody’s legacy lives on. Even the most sensitive of viewers will have found it difficult to find “You can take the girl out of a caravan park” offensive. Get a grip Big Bro.
Dexter’s comment came in the same task that highlighted their ability to put on a comedy argument for show. Just moments after a ridiculous tit-for-tat over the speed at which one of them eats (I still can’t differentiate) they were at it again with a staged bow to make Sophie laugh, raising doubts in my mind over the legitimacy of any of their squabbles.



Sunday

I cannot be the only viewer exhibiting signs of violent behaviour whenever I am forced to endure the seedy canoodlings of Dazel! It absolutely sickens me that his sweet, beautiful girlfriend has had her heart stamped all over by these stinking, ratty, good-for-nothing, loathsome hussies! Daley has to be the dumbest boy in all the world to treat Katie with such disrespect and she's much better off without him. The big-lipped and headed she-devil (with the 'disproportionate' hips), shoving her boobs into Daley's face is NO accident; she actually gets off herself knowing that the D*CK is having a party in his pants! Being frustrated as hell and thinking about 'mm..stuff' is no excuse to get down and dirty on National TV, without sparing a thought for the hell you are putting a lovely person through. STOP THINKING WITH YOUR GENITALIA! *sends out a group cuddle and all our love to Katie*

Ginxter make quite the evil geniuses and literally rub their hands with glee, sniggering as they watch their wicked ways at work. The group fall hook, line and sinker for the fake cover story that today was the viewers takeover.  Chosen criminals Wolfy and Daley are imprisoned in the slammer for 4 hours while Hazel cleans the house from top to bottom, dressed as the cheap little scrubber she is.  I had a happy, happy, smiley face seeing Wolfy spitting buckets when she has to drink bird SPIT (which is normally a favourite repulsive hobby of hers) and munch a stinky bishop cheese sandwich with salt and vinegar grasshoppers for lunch! Charlie's right it wasn't as bad as having a fractured hand, like poor love Mama Travers has thanks to her speed walking slip in the garden. (How many cameras in that house and not 1 caught it on film to send in to You've been Framed??)
Topless Dan and Silent (unless he's rapping) Sam rejoice in their reward of sinfully chocolatey cake and wine; Sam cutely raises a toast to whoever recommended them for it. Hazel driven crazy by gluttony comes over to drool at what she can't have, saying she's 'only looking' – pity she couldn't have done the same when it came to keeping her paws off Boxer boy!
Devious Dex and Gina aren't the only ones grossed out by the animal in Wolfy; Dim twins and grasshopper eating connoisseur Soph bitch about struggling to live with her arrogance and lack of hygiene. It hasn't gone unnoticed that the wolf woman hasn't been showering and Sophie isn't being funny but 'you need to wash your crotch!' (It's probs starting to attract the flies she communicates with if it smells like the sandwich she'd eaten/spat back up) Like the public, Charlie and Dan wish Wolfy would BUZZ OFF because they find her rude.
Other Highlights – The 'right plonker' David Brentesque Callum blowing his brains out with an imaginary pistol after getting the knockback from Charlie again. (Small aw) It crossing Detective Dan's mind that Ginxter could be in a secret house while he had a poo. Gina letting rip that she doesn't owe the HM's anything as they do NOTHING for her life 'Yeah, so maybe that's why they hate me.' Then her despondency at discovering the champagne bottle is empty. But the best, was Callum's lame rapping lyrics attempt 'couldn't be any clearer, I mean look at the camera behind the mirror' – Charlie's rap career is not in jeopardy.
QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: DEXTER – (to his partner in crime) Everything is so quiet and boring without us in there. Do we really cause that much sh*t?

Monday

The number one thing that I discovered from tonight’s episode was just how perfect Ginxter are together! No, no, not in showmance or even romance kind of way – in fact, the reason that they work together is purely the opposite of any Dazel nonsense that I will come to later. Gina and Dexter work so perfectly together because they are so platonic – their relationship is not a whisper more than friendship; they are on the same wavelength completely and have such a good rapport and understanding of each other and the house and any glimmer of romance would have tainted this completely. I mean, imagine if it were Hazel in the safe house with some poor unsuspecting guy? Or Callum with an unsuspecting girl come to that? Gina and Dexter know that they are entertaining enough without depending on a fake love story and they are self-sufficient enough to not need attention from the opposite sex in order to survive. They really are the two best housemates of the bunch and on that note can we just take a moment to imagine what this series would have been like if they were actually evicted?! –shudder- what a horrible thought! The main house is literally one of the most boring yet and Big Brother must be thanking their lucky stars that the show is able to be carried on just two housemate’s backs!
Now onto that sket Hazel. Don’t get me wrong, in instances when there is ~the other woman~ I am always the first to defend her. The mistress doesn’t have any loyalty to the girlfriend, the mistress owes the girlfriend absolutely nothing. I have always hated those girls who attack the girl their boyfriend has cheated with over the boyfriend who did the cheating. In this situation it is 100% up to the guy to remain faithful and I’ve always disliked how the men seem to get away scot-free in these instances and it is the other woman who is blamed for everything. However, Hazel is just a vile piece of work isn’t she?! Daley is by no means an innocent victim in this scenario but you can’t deny the fact that there have been times Hazel has been borderline sexually harassing Daley. She knows that he has a girlfriend and is trying to resist her yet she seems to get a weird, twisted satisfaction in thrusting her boobs in his face or gyrating against him as they ‘just dance’, she even seems to relish in sexually arousing him from a hug – so much so that she can’t even hide her evil little smile afterwards. In short – Hazel is just a horrible girl and Daley is a horrible dog of a man. In a sense I truly think they deserve eachother. I also hate the way all the other housemates are pretending that their behaviour is acceptable and when poor Callum dared to say otherwise he just got attacked, I think that actually shows that alongside Ginxter he is the only one to have either any backbone or any sense.
On the subject of poor Callum, I accept that he is a bit weird but I feel bad for how victimised he is inside that house, especially over his audition tape. I don’t think there is one person in Big Brother history who can truly say that they haven’t lied or exaggerated in order to get into the house and I think that Jackie and co are just clinging to this as an excuse to hate him. One word springs to mind too; Bully.
In other news: I love that Ginxter got to watch noms, I still can’t stand Wolfy and think that I want her to go over Hazel but the thought of watching either of them on my tv for another week is disturbing(a double eviction would be fab right now!) Jack and Joe continue to annoy the hell out of me and Dan… Dan is a bit of a shit-stirrer but I don’t really dislike him (then again I think I might have missed some Dan juice whilst on holiday as I can’t imagine the public backlash is completely uncalled for!)

Tuesday

Being in the safe house has really been the making of Dexter, sitting there sipping his champagne he mused there must be a lesson to learn from all this luxury and power, hankering to further his personal growth. As Ginxter become more and more comfortable in each others company we even caught a glimpse of Dexters funny side with an impression of a ‘fashionista’ we loved it. Its amazing what a few days without being called a sssssneaky sssssnake can do for your confidence.
There was a bit of Travers on Travers action with Jackie uttering those spine tingling words ‘I’ll get really cross’ we’re terrified. Bring back the dancing, singing, fun Jackie. As the Travers duo exchanged stern words under the sun, Hazel was reveling in the conflict, that evil inside is firmly making its escape. Not only do we get a Marcus Bentley voice over we’ve been treated to a running commentary from Gina, we kind of get the impression she doesn’t like Mummy Travers all that much… maybe.
The headlines task was crafted perfectly to weed out revelations and be a catalyst for conflict. As Ginxter ran through their answers to the headlines we sat nodding along, they chose the perfect answers poised to cause tension and set peoples minds racing. As the housemates began to guess a few shared a little more than BB was probably expecting, turns out a few of the boys have the odd intimate selfie swimming around the virtual world.
Poor Charlie Travers, its not been the best of episodes for her, argument, tears… she could really do with a little luxury in her life. As Charlie became upset in the garden we were reintroduced to why we initially liked Dan, he shows genuine compassion when giving comfort and advice to any blubbing housemate. It didn’t get much better for Charlie or ‘the rash the won’t go away’ as Wolfy liked to describe her in the diary room, taking the adult route Travers Jnr. addressed the problem head on, Wolfy however denied any issue what so ever and ended the conversation with her Camel ways.
In Other News
Disgusting Dazel – the Dazel ‘love story’ continued, we’d say bordering on inappropriate but that line was crossed long ago. Heading towards sexual harassment the way Hazel is behaving.
Sam’s Alive – we haven’t seen him since the launch show but Sam showed off his comedic ways, ‘I tripped over Hazels bra earlier, it was a booby trap’ ah the crap ones get us every time.
Nomination Reveal – As the housemates facing eviction were announced we get the evil from Hazel, that ‘face’ from Callum, an ‘I knew it’ from Charlie and an ‘im going nowhere’ shrug from Wolfy.

Wednesday

Like Ginxter (the heart of the house), we've laughed, cried, cringed, got angryyyyyy and the party's not over yet! Their big return and safe house reveal was something of a damb squib (I'd expected to watch a gnarly carnage but no eye gouging was to be had) as everyone was more excited by the jacuzzi. A TRAVERSty broke out when Jackie was swapped with Charlie (saved as she was 'the lesser of a few evils!!'), after Gina and Dex were forced to get choosy. And words were not minced in informing Dazel (who deserve each other and their damnation, may it all bite you on the bum) that they are essentially floozies! 
The grudge-fest against 'arrogant f**ker' Wolfy is mounting; thank heck Mr Nice Guy's eyes have been opened to her cockiness! He was most insulted with this massive disservice discrediting his intelligence because he's savvy enough to make up his own mind. She may be a player but this is a game that the free-spirited, 'harmony-loving',camel-spitting hippy is going to LOSE!!! Does she seriously still think she has a shot here after all the boos? The two stone funny boned Twinnies and their very annoying way of staging spats are also getting to be a serious pain in the you-know-what (but still have mucho love for them) as they would say 'don't mug us off, lower your tone and strengthen your argument!'
Dex dispenses diamonds to Daley but it should NOT have taken 5 people to call them up on their actions for Dazel to develop a conscience!!! Where were your morals before? In your pants! You do not have a connection, you're just canines in heat that make me sing WHO LET THE DOGS OUT? And Hazel if you think your behaviour is nicey nice toxic tramp, I'd hate to see when you're horribly HORRIBLE! Daley's excuse about being confused but loving his girlfriend expired the minute he was grinding up against another girl!! If he truly cherished what he had with Katie, Hazel wouldn't even have been a temptation – so the loss is all his. Let's hope he won't 'have his cake and eat it, then go home and have dessert!' 
Other bits I loved – Dexter's morning bed head hair, Gina's dramatic gasps (whenever she overhears something she disliked on plasma TV) accident-prone Callum spilling spag bol down his leg, 'Evil twin' Joe's disappointment to learn he's bitchy, Sam being the biggest speaker of sense in the house, the wibbly wobbly belly hula dancing and Dan's forthright declaration to BFF Hazel's face that Friday would be good for her to go.
Will Dazel now modify their behaviour even remotely after being pulled up on it? Are Ginxter going to drop any of their big clangers? How many more conspiracy manuals will Detective Dan and his spot on intuition swallow? Wolfy can wait, I want Hazel out Friday and if she is - I will dance, I will sing, fireworks will be set off and towns will be painted red!! 
QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: JACK – (After Dan frisks him up saying he's only as old as the man he's feeling) Oh I get it, that's cute. Delusion is a great thing.

Thursday

It was Task Day in the Big Brother house and was time for the group to win some money for Food shopping. The first part of the task seen Gina,Dexter and Charlie telling the housemates they were getting rid of their clothes for the duration of the task. Sophie's one liners make her a favourite of mine after finding out she couldn't have any clothes for the duration of the task she went on to say she hadnt had a bra on for 2 days. The twins were getting frustrated again with each other after finding out they had to spell 'times are tough' out of spaghetti alphabet on toast. They would of preferred to eat this after asking Big Brother if they could steal a slice of stale bread. Hazels trying her best not to flirt with Daley after Dexter revealing how cringy and flirty they were together. I'm not liking Dazels relationship. It wasn't much of a surprise when Gina spent £20 of the shopping budget on having her make up done professionalaly. Her money loving side came through when she said 'it's only £20. She's only in there for herself and doesn't care what anybody else thinks and this side of her is growing on me. Dexter also used £40 out of the shopping budget for a wine tasting treat and didn't even think about saying no to it.
Taking away the housemates cigs (Wolfys worst nightmare) was hilarious the way she acted was so annoying and child like. I was expecting her to turn green and rip her t-shirt off she's such an attention seeker. Callum & Sam's conversations are so boring they both need to get out of the house they're not bringing anything exciting to the show. Charlie's struggling with how her mum's reacting to things and how Jackies giving people her honest opinions if Charlie's up for eviction this week I think she'll go. Gina's 'little bitch' comment to Hazel after Hazel was saying she shouldn't of had any wine the house bought was hilarious. She just says what she wants and like I said before this is making me like her more.
Dexters still being really sly with the whole Dazel thing. I'm not sure he's going to last very long in the house I don't like him. Sophie needs more air time she's hilarious and is definitely one of the main contenders for the final. I'd like to see her in a secret task because she's so innocent. One of the Travi's need to go so we can see them being themselves on there own.
Quote of the Episode: (Joe about the train station Wolfy slept in) "it's not just any train station it's Manchester Piccadilly it's a bloody nice train station)

Friday

I'm going to say it: There were many facets to Wolfy's character that I found utterly fascinating. The talking to animals, the apparent basic life she led outside the house and the fact that she was an obsessive fan of the show that had dreamed of becoming a housemate for years. The latter, it would seem, has come to a fast and sharp conclusion. She absolutely deserved to go, but the public had strong opinions of her and she stood out during her time in the house. This, by definition, is a good housemate.
I thought that Wolfy had a pretty tough time in the house. She was apparently loved in week one and then, with the thought that the public adored her, she continued in the same vein into week two – and then all of a sudden the mob outside the house was baying for her removal. Then there was Dan who seemed obsessed with trying to take her character to pieces and then put it together again to see what didn't fit. She was right about one thing – Dan did interrogate her, constantly. And Dan, as we have seen, does like to throw his weight around when he feels that somebody is in the wrong – and, according to him, Wolfy was always in the wrong.
Which, to some degree she was. Her main downfall was her “confidence” in herself to surf her way to the final which came across as simply bolshy and arrogant. She treated the rest of the housemates as if they were just pawns in a big game towards her victory. Then there was the spitting. She did that a lot too – in fact the pool is probably full of less water than what left Wolfy's body during her time in there. She also didn't come across as a particularly good team player. Smoking constantly while the rest of the housemates had to go without was unfair and didn't earn her many brownie points with the others. She seemed to want to do everything in the house a certain way and woe betide anybody who stood in her way. This only goes down well with the public if you come across as likeable and Wolfy simply didn't. As a result, from here on in, the animals will be talking to themselves.
Hazel has had a lucky escape, as it would appear that her ridiculous relationship with Daley isn't enough for her to be evicted at the first opportunity the public had. She, to all intents and purposes, now has a chance to prove to the public why she should be there. Bad guys never go very far in Big Brother – and if she wants to remove herself from the cliché model stereotype, she is clearly going to have to show a little restraint. We shall see. I want to like Hazel. I really do.

MOMENT OF THE WEEK: Dexter's referral to Wolfy as a camel because of the spitting.

HERO OF THE WEEK: Charlie – a housemate that seems to have come out of her shell and at the moment appears to have a good chance for the final. I like her a lot.

VILLAIN OF THE WEEK: Daley. It's easy to blame Hazel for everything but at the end of the day, Hazel isn't the one who's humiliated her girlfriend on national television. He deserves to leave as soon as possible. It would have been unfair for Hazel to leave to a massive chorus of boos leaving Daley to win the public round again on his own. We must remember that before the Hazel romance started, all he was doing was farting. Literally nothing else. If Hazel deserves public contrition, he deserves it tenfold.
