BBUK - The Final Full Week.


The Final week of Big Brother isn’t usually the most eventful of telly highlights, remaining housemates usually avoid conflict and go about their day to day routines to avoid losing any potential votes, but not this year! This year has ended how it began, drama, from start to finish. The last full week in the house started with ANOTHER nominations twist (we can’t actually remember the last time they nominated conventionally) face to face nominations.


Slightly more reserved with their reasoning this time around one by one they revealed their board (well a couple of them did) and delivered their nominations. Shock, horror, Dexter was up, followed by the twins, Charlie and Sam. Whispers of cheat surrounded Sophie’s nominations as she was seen to ‘change her vote’ as the process was underway. This was quashed and all conspiracy theories fizzled out as all she did was re-write Sams name a little bigger. Despite this it still seemed as though Big Brother wasn’t all too fussed on the rules being abided just so long as they didn’t fall off air like the last time they attempted this.

After the nomination results had sunk in, it was task time. On first look it seemed a fantastic idea, embarrassing costumes (poor Joe, every time he was on screen has was pulling and fidgeting with the lycra), a storyline to follow and an original task. Now it may just have been what made it past the edit into the highlights show but it seemed a little lack luster, half hearted mini tasks and not all that much at stake, perhaps had it been earlier in the series this would have been up their on the best task list, we shall never know. It did however deliver a genuinely funny moment when the poor twins were attacked by an evil wasp up in the tree house, the look of terror in Jacks eyes had me in stitches. Gradually finding myself warming to the twins, a sentence I thought I’d never type, the bitching and Hazel worshipping has subsided and I’m finally able to laugh at their sarcastic nature.


Then came the ‘Big Payoff’ billed as the biggest BBUK twits ever, to be honest when it was revealed we were more than under-whelmed and in fact a little bit annoyed they were messing with the winner fund, something you’ll find most of us Big Brother fans HATE. Thankfully it turned out to be a twist within a twist, bloody secrets and lies. Originally nominated housemates were told they would take it in turns to enter a room in which they’d be faced with a wall of cash totals ranging from a pound, to 100K, they would have to place the lowest amount of money that they’d be willing to leave the house for and the person who in the end chose the lowest amount would leave that same night with the cash. Cue shocked faces and ‘I’m not here for the money’ manifestos. It was eventually revealed Dexter had chosen the lowest amount (£88,800) HOWEVER, here comes that twist within a twist, for being the ‘least greedy’ housemate he would in fact receive immunity and the power to replace himself with Gina or Sophie up for the final eviction. After whispers of ‘thank god’ and ‘I’m sorry’ he chose Sophie. (we were delighted)


Dexters joy at reaching the final was short lived as half the house turned on him for his decision to chose £88,800, their argument was that Charlie was last to pick yet has a bigger total than that of Dexter meaning he’d had the opportunity to ensure he wasn’t going to ‘leave the house’. They all seemed to fail to realize that Charlie also had a higher total than the twins, who picked second. Just another fine example of how certain housemates will jump on any opportunity to see the worst in Dexter that they’re handed. It did however lead to one of our favourite quotes this series from Sam with regards to Dexter ‘He came in a boy and leaving a bell end’.


The week ended with the final eviction and it was Sophie that we waved goodbye to. Quite the shock for housemates and some viewers who saw her as a popular contestant. We on the other hand were delighted, we didn’t dislike Sophie, we just didn’t see what all the fuss was about, after doing nothing for at least 7 weeks when she finally grabbed some air time it consisted of bitching and stirring, not what was promised from her entrance VT.


That leaves Dexter, Gina, Jack & Joe, Charlie and Sam to battle it out in the final.
