They always throw up some surprising results, though you probably have to take into account that many of them probably don’t put much effort into them – Mario for example, his scores were utterly dismal, even a 10 year old would do better than he did but we know from watching the show that Mario is by no means on a level intelligence wise with a 10 year old.

The most surprising results this series were John James, he comes across pretty average on the show – to put it nicely, but he actually scored the highest, even higher than Andrew who just got a near first from Oxford university.

Crazy hey?

Randomly though Sunshine reckons they didn’t even take any this year, she said it on twitter. How can that be right?

Well I take it back.

What is with him and his obsession with Rachael? The fact is that she does sneer at people and given them the “I’m better than you look” that JJ describes, but his obsession over it and the way he attacks her about the smallest of things (Oh no, BB girl who wants to get her baps out after the show…who woulda thunk it?) is completely over the top.

He’s a bit of a nutter it seems.

As for tonight, it’s the first eviction of the summer and we have three girls on the block – meaning that in all 11 series a female has been the first to be evicted. I was really hoping to break that little trend in the final series but hey ho.

Rachael vs Shabby vs Sunshine

I really don’t know who I want out, I don’t really like any of them but each add something to the show. Unlike people like Nathan and Ife and Steve who so far have done very little.

In addition he seems like an alright kinda guy and I love that he reminds me of my beloved Big Brother Australia that I still miss.

It’s the little things like the fact he calls Big Brother ‘Him/He’ rather than ‘Them/They’ because in Big Brother Australia they do all see the big guy as a man, rather than just a random member of the production staff.

He’s definitely not the sharpest knife in the drawer but unlike previous thicko BB pretty boys he seems to have a good heart, show a genuine interest in others and isn’t at all shallow.

So far, he’s my favourite

Still, I am going to enjoy it as though it were the last.

I was lucky enough to get a free pass for the Internet feed, I was so happy that the live feed is back 24/7 that I would have been happy to pay the £14.99 actually but you know me, if I can get something for less or free then I am very happy.

So far they seem like a pretty nice bunch, and less shallow and stupid in than in previous years it has to be said. It’s very early days though and those that seem nice now could turn out to be total nightmares, we know this from 10 years of experience!

I will post again soon with my opinions on the housemates

‘Citing!

I do remember him having an interest in fishing during the show actually, but it seemed like he disappeared once the show was over so was surprised to see him on TV at all.

My word I was so in love with that guy, my first ever proper reality TV person crush

They all do as he says. They all think how he tells them to. They all do his bidding.

Dane was becoming my favourite, but he’s so up Vinnie’s backside now it makes me sick.

You only have to look at the nominations to see his hand and influence in most of the votes.

With Sov gone (who was a tool, but at least she stirred them up and didn’t bow down to Vinnie) and Ivana (who I like a lot) and Stephen (total oddball, great TV) surely headed out the door on Friday I am wondering what there is in the final week left to watch.

It’s a long time since I watched a Big Brother launch show and felt excited, for the last several series it’s been very same old same old. But I enjoyed that they have redone the house for once and it looks great. I enjoyed the little touches like the fire on the house and the (poor) naked men with the torches. I also think it’s a good celebrity line up, people like Vinnie Jones and Basshunter are currently well known, there’s some infamous people in there like Hiedi, I know of Stephen Baldwin because he was in I’m a Celebrity USA last year. There are a few duds in there, people who are only famous for who they have slept with – but overall I am happy.

Bring it on

Yeah OK so they were a pretty boring couple as far as reality contestants go, but they were nice enough and I think very much the most deserved winners. Going into the episode I wasn’t at all sure who I wanted to win but suspected that Brian and Ericka had been given the winners edit – so when it was mentioned again at the start of the episode that they had never won a leg and they got an early lead I thought that was that.

When Ericka reminded me why I disliked her earlier on during the bouncy bouncy grab the flowers challenge I decided I really didn’t want them to win and when Meghan and Cheyne ended up behind because no one seemed to know which hotel they needed to be at I thought how unfair it would be if they lost because of that and realised I really was rooting for them.

Overall a pretty good season but definitely not a classic or all time favourite.

I hear that Jeff and Jordan of BB romance/he handed her the win fame will be racing on the next season – I wonder how true that is, it seemed like for a while every season there were rumours Janelle and Dr Will were racing and it never happened.

These days it seems much more acceptable, with glamour girls proving really popular and even winning the shows. Has plastic surgery just become more acceptable and normal these days, or is it just that we’ve got used to them because they feature so much in all our favourite reality shows?

Lots of women seems to come out of reality shows and go looking for affordable breast augmentation these days as well, I can think of several former Big Brother girls who have since had the surgery – I suppose they do it in order to further their careers and get more money from nuts shoots. I think it’s a sad state of affairs – more power to women who want boob jobs for themselves, I have no qualms about that, but in order to please lads mags? That’s lame, just like pop displays.
