Big Brother (UK 2006) - Who are these painful showoffs? : thread 1

(ok, I couldn't think of an alternate kick-off title)

Right, here we (all) are, once again, today's the day one, and we all approach the start with a mixture of anticipation and dread.

Every year, it's supposedly meaner and more twisty than previous. The papers will get into a lather about how much and what kind of sex the inmates will all be / having, and unusually there's been strong speculation about some of the housemates being 'known' already. It seems that as the demarcation line between 'celebrity' and 'civilian' gets nearer, expect each contestant to have their own 'before they were famous' presspack/video of all their commercials/bitparts in blazin' squad videos/"You've been Framed" highlights.

So, sit back, scoff yr non-golden kitkats, and to heck with the show, watch this space...

yeah this thread title got on my tits last year.

poor show mark.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:26 (twenty years ago)

No no no the worst meme ever is the thing where the titles of rolling or serial threads are automatically trashed. This is the second worst.

― beanz (beanz), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:29 (twenty years ago)

Look, the thread's still young. If there's a better one, let's get a mod to change it and put (was: etc) in the question text to not confuse the subsequent reader. I don't mind, really.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:31 (twenty years ago)

Surely you could work "morons and scum" in there somewhere?

― Action Tim Vision (noodle vague), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:32 (twenty years ago)

mmm, needs work, carry on.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:33 (twenty years ago)

'who are these morons and scum?'

Why, do the pants seem sensible?

xpost well, pants are pants. What's a lanyard for?

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:38 (twenty years ago)

For holding your phone if your hands are otherwise engaged, e.g. playing a game of 'find big brother', I guess

― beanz (beanz), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:40 (twenty years ago)

It's the usual thing with 'merch'. The staff of Endemol get all this dished out to them and put the rest of the stock on-line to pay for all the freebies. Prob.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:43 (twenty years ago)

How much do they make from the texts, do you spose?

― beanz (beanz), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:44 (twenty years ago)

so they might be able to discuss nominations this year? I'm not sure I agree with that idea, it takes a lot of the back stabbing mind games out of the house

― Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 May 2006 08:45 (twenty years ago)

but then again it might just conjure up different ones

But for him the worst thing about being on Big Brother is the local youths who knock on his door in the middle of the night shouting: "This is Big Brother, you are evicted." He doesn't find it funny.

The wannabes will be filmed moving into Britain's most famous house
from 9pm — where they'll stay for up to 13 weeks.

We previously revealed they include former Miss Wales Imogen Thomas,
23, well-endowed Tourette's sufferer Peter Stephenson and a posh pal
of Prince Harry's.

Also lined up are a believer in Native Indian spirituality, a knitter,
a mum, a bagpipe player and a gay barman who enjoys six-in-a-bed.

Others include a fella who's made a home for his hamster in the walls
of his house — and someone who's been unemployed for 21 years.

Two housemates claim to be experts in doing the splits, and one was
head boy at his school. Another was a nude model for 3,000 bikers.

One wannabe is obsessed with shaving his body, another is a veggie and
one is a Sloane Ranger. Another claims to have been celibate for SEVEN
years. One brags to have spent £1,000 on lingerie in a single shopping
spree and another says they learnt to drive at just two-years-old

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:18 (twenty years ago)

Well endowed Tourettes sufferer? What can he say?

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:19 (twenty years ago)

One can only imagine.

― suzy (suzy), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:21 (twenty years ago)

BEST BB EVER!

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:21 (twenty years ago)

my bed would never fit six.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:22 (twenty years ago)

I really hope they don't do what they did last year and fill the house with incredibly dull women who claim to be nymphos on the desperate hope they'll have sex in the house.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:22 (twenty years ago)

actual nymphos only amirite

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:27 (twenty years ago)

a mum

So there's at least one person who probably has had sex at least once in their lives, we can say that for sure.

― beanz (beanz), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:34 (twenty years ago)

"Native Indian spirituality" HAHAHAHAHA! Conflation/ignorance alert!

― suzy (suzy), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:34 (twenty years ago)

Last year weren't they all 'Buddhists' i.e. they sat cross-legged intoning a mantra nicked from some film? Did you notice Rula's mantra (Celeb BB) and Kemal's mantra were the same? What the hell film did they nab it from? Help

― beanz (beanz), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:39 (twenty years ago)

It might have been from "Help". There were a few short mantras there.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:41 (twenty years ago)

Kula Shaker have reformed!

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:48 (twenty years ago)

Film ref for 'nam yoho renge kyo' is "Tina: What's Love Got To Do With It", isn't it?

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 18 May 2006 10:57 (twenty years ago)

Nam My?h? Renge Ky? - The mantra is referred to as daimoku (??, "title") and was first "revealed" by the Japanese Buddhist teacher Nichiren on the 28th day of the fourth lunar month of 1253 ce at Kiyosumi-dera (also, Seich?ji) near Kominato in current-day Chiba, Japan. The practice of chanting the daimoku is called sh?dai. The phrase is somewhat difficult to render into English because each word or set of words contains a complex set of symbolism and connotation, and without an understanding of the symbology behind the words, the full meaning is lost.

Though My?h? Renge Ky? has numerous English renderings, such as "The Scripture of the Lotus of the Perfect Truth", it is most commonly referred to as, simply, the Lotus Sutra.

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 18 May 2006 11:02 (twenty years ago)

Nam Myoho Renge Kyo without the ?'s

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 18 May 2006 11:02 (twenty years ago)

it's an uncertain mantra to be sure...

We have nude like Jason. Shabazz is remarkably annoying, too many Posho's, but Dawn is a bit mental if she is given reign to be truly nasty (though seems like a pose). There are a lot of possible dullsticks there though Grace, Bonner, George, Eve, Marmaduke.

Starry Shabazz Sarah.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:22 (twenty years ago)

PREDICTIONS:

- The house will divide down class lines this time. Poshos on one side, chavs and freaks on the other.

- Dawn will be nominated every single week but they won't be able to get rid of her for ages.

- Pete Burns will crack up and sit in the bedroom crying on her own in at least two days.

- Nicky will be naked in the swimming pool... well, she's probably there now actually. But will actually prove to be quite sweet and loveable. And she might win. Or be a bunny-boiler.

- Imogen will never be nominated and finish fourth.

- Bonner has been set up as 'viewer identification housemate', as proven by lots of close-up shots of her eyes darting around in a "who are these freaks?" manner.

- Pete is probably quite a nice guy, and will probably win.

Also, weirdly, I LIKE THEM ALL. Especially Dawn and gay cowboy dude.

Results from the Ewing jury

Bono - horribly out of her depth it looks, won't last long, feel a bit sorry for her.

Pete - likeable but for how long eh? Might well win.

George - also out of his depth, he's going to latch on to some alpha housemate though and be the gollum.

Shabazz - seemed nice and sensible on his video but I suspect he'll flounder somewhat in the house. Too much of a generic housemate rly.

Lea - won't be in there long and won't do much either.

Imogen - seems nice enough

Mikey - every series they have someone with 'forthright' opinions on their video and every series this is just a tease: maybe Mikey will actually be a cunt though, who knows.

Welsh lifeguard bloke - obviously a bit tragic but nothing too objectionable. By this point I was in a state of contented sanguinity. Could be jolly, could be craig.

Dawn - if she's as grumpy as she claims to be will be awesome: Sandy II. Isabel loathed her on sight and got very upset when I didn't agree.

erm the posh girl - not too awful.

Big Gay Richard - hurrah!

Lisa - hurrah again!! We liked her a lot.

Sezer - alpha housemate step forward, too soon to tell what he's like though.

Nikki - like Shabazz, a bit too 'generic BB contestant' really.

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:40 (twenty years ago)

For those not watching live, Shahbaz is leading the house in a rendition of "Celebrate" by Kool and the Gang. Organised fun! Let's all be friends! Whoo!

(xpost, yes, Nikki would indeed. As would be Mikey and, erm, George? Bonnie?)

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:44 (twenty years ago)

last year's Dawn went out 1st week

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:46 (twenty years ago)

Bonnie would have been fine in last year's BB house. What on EARTH is her accent though?

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:46 (twenty years ago)

I think if Lisa gets through the first couple of weeks she could do really well, but she also has a big annoyance value which could yank her out early. And the randomish first eviction often removes a good value player. But remember the first four evictees will probably be gurls...

bono from loughborough according to the bb website.

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:56 (twenty years ago)

this is fantastic

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:58 (twenty years ago)

Any walkers?

xpost I think George will have some very specific survival skills re. dealing with lack of privacy, orgafun etc. BUT he'll also be missing other survival skills: at boarding school the self-consciously wacky are slapped down very quickly, and the type of personalities who impose themselves on BB are v different from what he'll have encountered. BUT thinking about it if he gets through the first 4-5 weeks he'll be better placed.

Also if he's boarded for 10 yrs probably it's single-sex, which will make a difference.

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 May 2006 20:58 (twenty years ago)

George will be able to surround himself with allies fairly easily - there's the potential for a clique that will need to be slowly picked off. Leah, on the other hand, was all "horrible people!" at being bullied, which means she will crack up majorly, isolate herself from all other housemates, be up for eviction and be HEARTLESSLY CAST OUT BY THE FEMALES OF THIS FAIR NATION.

(xpost - or she could walk)

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 18 May 2006 21:00 (twenty years ago)

Most likely candidate for walking is obviously Dawn, but I suspect she's actually fairly personable (she was chatting away happily enough in the clips).

Leah could walk.

― chap who would dare to be a nerd, not a geek (chap), Thursday, 18 May 2006 21:01 (twenty years ago)

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 May 2006 21:02 (twenty years ago)

Bonnie sounds as if she should be from Somwhere in Miller/Brown land, therefore Bonnie to win.

NB, I am not watching BB anymore this year, our telly's too nice to put a foot through it.

― Porkpie (porkpie), Thursday, 18 May 2006 21:04 (twenty years ago)

ey up funsters. obviously, i'm not watching it this year. but if i was, i'd have this to say:

"Are they booing?"
"Now, they're going booooooo-nnie"

HAHAHAHAHAH you funny, funny fucker, dom.

Christ, he's like Lee Evans on crack, isn't he?

my thoughts exactly. i really like him, actually. he reminds me slightly of my cousin. i was slightly unconvinced by the tourette's thing at first BUT that's only because i'm a nasty, cynical piece of work. certainly, the tooting and whistling is spot-on, so if he is acting then he deserves a fucking award. the wanker. cunt! toot. etc.

Putting Pete Burns back in was a masterstroke

fuck, i wanted to be the first to say this :)

What the fuck sort of name is Sezer?

i was so, so hoping it would be caesar out of factory never-weres the wake. ach well.

"Recognise: Sezer's Palace! Game on!"

it would have helped if he hadn't then walked into the wall, mistaking it for the door. oh dear.

i want dawn to win, simply because she is a female version of my mate nrom, whom i love dearly despite his miserable, misanthropic ways. lisa and pete get the grimly thumbs-up too, as does shabhaz. big gay canadian would be great if he could stop talking about oating for a moment. same - maybe - goes for nikki. maybe.

mikey cannot be for real with that comedy cuntishness ... but if it's an act then, er, that makes him a cunt too. boo.

bonner is appalling. george seems okay for a posho.

and two welsh people! safe as fuck.

x-post: yes, leah is a prime candidate for a spectacular breakdown. but i think sezer is pretty fucking damaged too, and he worries me.

right, i'm off to not watch the live feed.

He's not said much since they switched over to the live stuff on E4. I think it was an act.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 18 May 2006 21:17 (twenty years ago)

on the surface - mikey's dreadful comedy wanker routine excepted - they seem a rather more reasonable bunch than the last couple of years.

i think i don't like bonner because she reminds me a little of lesler, which is bad of me (especially given that lesler has obviously had a dreadful time of it since she came out of last year's house).

i read an interview with lesler, sam, lisa (from BB3 or whenever it was) and a couple of other ex-housemates the other day, in which they all moaned like fuck about how they didn't realise people might not like them on the telly. ach.

I flung the Danniella Westbrook and Reese Witherspoon* comparisons out because I can't remember who I'm trying to think of. I was figuring it was someone I know rather than someone famous, but maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. She's nothing like Danniella Westbrook at all, really, it was just her video clip intro thing with the hat that made me think that.

*I don't think she looks like Reese W so much as acts like Elle Woods.

Bonnur (I think) said that she was so hott and sexyyy that Davina would be seized with uncontrollable lust and be forced to flick her bean.

― Mark C (Markco), Friday, 19 May 2006 09:15 (twenty years ago)

I thought maybe it was a reference to her failed chatshow. Not sure how, though.

They all know each other.

GLYN TO WIN.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 19 May 2006 09:15 (twenty years ago)

I read that. But presumably apart from really good contestants who perhaps get fast-tracked, they have all been through many rounds of auditions and a few are bound to have bumped into each other at some point. The last 50 were in a secret destination in Europe together, so they must have socialised and I'm sure some auditions were in groups. The only proper coincidence is Grace and Nikki having worked together, but not that surprising really.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 19 May 2006 09:24 (twenty years ago)

xpost When Kate Lawler entered the BB house back in the day, first thing she did was point at Jade Goody and go "Hiiii!" like they'd met before.

And I think Dan recognised Kinga.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 19 May 2006 09:28 (twenty years ago)

But I think they are told they can't talk about auditions, or something, because after the initial recognition they seem to keep quiet about it quickly.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 19 May 2006 09:29 (twenty years ago)

Victor and somebody also met during auditions.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 19 May 2006 09:29 (twenty years ago)

They aren't allowed to talk about the audition process ever (even out of the house)...

as observed last night, if you say things like "I kill every cat I see, forcefeed them to children and my plan is to wipe out all people in the world who are not pretty like me' in a voice like Imogen's, it doesn't sound half as bad and makes you think 'fair enough luv'. well, me anyway.

I like shabazz but he probably needs to stop touching/grabbing/shaking people so much

funny, though, when he said pete was his "little lee evans" then grabbed pete's head w/ both hands, to hold it still, so he could talk to him about lee evans

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 19 May 2006 11:00 (twenty years ago)

Forced "wacky" or not, I must admit to laughing at Pete's Norman Wisdom/Lee Evans tumble down the steps. That was the moment I picked my favourite housemate, despite there being 12 I hadn't seen yet.

I notice some of them had a spot of bother with a big door that said "PUSH" on it.

Actually, do you think the relative tameness of both the Welsh contestants is a tacit acknowledgement that BB has never really had a successful (or indeed memorably significant) Welsh contestant, whereas the rest of the UK has reprazented well.

And now look at us. I also have a very soft spot for Craig vs Anna - not really an eviction clearly, as it was the first year and there was a palpable sense of bloke vs bird, straight vs gay etc etc. In retrospect, its like being given a choice between Ghandhi and Mother Theresa (who even Dawn believes were probably nice people).

watching again, i feel a bit sorry for bonner, who has ended up looking like a paragon of tedium within the space of a few short minutes.

mikey is a phallus. according to his biog on the official site, his party piece is opening bottles with his teeth. big deal, mookey. i used to do that. until i chipped a tooth.

this morning we (accidentally) put on the live E4 thing. shabhaz was talking to himself in front of a mirror for ... well, we watched it for about 10 minutes and he showed no signs of letting up.

thing is, i think this is the kind of thing he'd do in his own house too, so i'm not desperately worried.

i still rather like him.

Okay, impressions after watching a whole 'proper' episode last night:

Bono - Wet blanket. I saw her crying about something and couldn't quite understand what it was.

Pete - Seems to disappear offscreen for some time. I like him though. BB is having a bit of fun at his expense though... "What do you think about the other housemates?" "I like them...WANKERS!"

George - Actually seems relatively decent so far. Tom's right though, I'm sure he'll morph into this season's fawning sycophant in time.

Shabazz - GAY SCIENCE. With 'theatre' in place of rapping, obviously. Completely stubborn and incapable of seeing any other argument other than "I'M RIGHT AND I'M NOT LISTENING TO YOU NER NER NER!"

Sezer - Complete twunt, but I'd behave a bit like that if I had to live with Shabazz for more than five minutes. He'll be a Maxwell-esque hate figure by week two.

Lea - Haven't noticed her do anything yet.

Imogen - Now the initial "OMG I want to marry you!" has worn off she could well turn into this year's Vanessa.

Mikey - Has he done anything at all?

Welsh lifeguard bloke - Doesn't half look like Andy Murray, does he?

Dawn - Very disappointing. All that "I hate people" stuff appears to be a schtick to get in. And repeatedly saying "this is not enjoyable" to Big Brother annoyed me. IT'S NOT MEANT TO BE ENJOYABLE. YOU ARE THERE TO SUFFER FOR OUR ENTERTAINMENT.

Grace - haven't noticed her really.

Richard - I still like him. He's clearly going for the diplomat/house father role though. Half the house will distrust him but be too scared to openly gang up against him.

Lisa - Erm, she's very annoying. Will be nominated fairly shortly and get evicted straight away.

Nikki - WORST CONTESTANT EVER. TS - drinking "disgusting" filtered tap water vs sitting there in intense pain because you're dehydrated. Good strop though.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Sunday, 21 May 2006 15:31 (twenty years ago)

I'm happy to admit I may be completely wrong about my first impressions of Nikki.

Grace seems nice - I'm so used to girls on BB being hateful, it's odd to find ones that aren't. Initial impressions now make me think Pete might win.

― ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 21 May 2006 15:48 (twenty years ago)

don't think shabazz is anything like science and don't think glyn is anything like andy murray

― RJG (RJG), Sunday, 21 May 2006 15:55 (twenty years ago)

Sezer is the sleaziest scummer since uh, Federico and when he comes up for nomination he'll be getting my sole vote of the entire series. Lisa is adorable (top marks for blurting out her dislike for Bon-ner and Sezer). Pete muuuust win. I hated Liverpool guy's intro video but fingers-crossed grows a dislike for tidgey Sezer and begins to deliberately out-do him in the flirting stakes (but with less of the date-rape). I'm liking Shabaz at the moment because any enemy of Sezer is a hero to me. Shabaz does have a point in "You lot have never seen a film!" though, I hope he actually is a smart-cookie and brings some cultchah to the house. Richard is lovely. Dawn seems quite nice in the house but she loses points for that bullshit intro video about hating everyone - worst gimmick to get in the house ever. Nikki is amazing, I can't believe someone like that exists, hilarious.
And that's my 20p worth.

They were a tad harsh on Shabazz (as far as I could see he didn't do anything bad. At all. Apart from being a bit annoying.), but his reactions really made things a lot worse.

― chap who would dare to be a nerd, not a geek (chap), Sunday, 21 May 2006 16:27 (twenty years ago)

i think sezer is not so bad. imogen was complaining about him letching but has since spent a fair bit of time in bed with him, shabazz seems to be more bothered than the girls are. i also thought he was reasonable with shabbazz "you're a bully and a coward but you're not going to bully me" seemed fairly OTM and good on him.

okay, i was wrong about shahbaz. he's an absolute cock. i spent most of yesterday with my nephew, who's prone to bouts of whiny selfishness; compared to shahbaz, however, he's gandhi. and he's only seven. shahbaz has failed in every way to grow up.

sezer is also a complete phallus, from what i can see. imogen too, for being all over him. lisa is more annoying than i thought, although i still like her. as soon as richard removes the cowboy hat, i begin to like him too. mikey is despicable. er, that's it.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 22 May 2006 08:28 (twenty years ago)

Canadian cowboy is my fave so far, by a long way

I've warmed to Pete, I dispised his entrance to the house but he's not been the prick I thought he would.

shahbaz is just the worst person ever and still reminds me of Noel from Father Ted, does he ever sleep?

Nikki had some evil face shit going on when she was shouting at the camera. potentially worth watching just for her.

I am already getting a feeling of too much nice house from them. Those who were wankers on tape seem to have not displayed any true colours yet, and with the exception of getting the whiners out of the way (Nikki and Shabazz) I thinkl this lot could actually be quite chummy.

― Pete (Pete), Monday, 22 May 2006 08:43 (twenty years ago)

i don't care if he's putting it on or not, he's still calling them wankers, and is, therefore, AMAZING.

> Shabaz does have a point in "You lot have never seen a film!"

i have this same problem if i ever go down the pub with colleagues. conversation topics range from football to, er, the upcoming world cup.

Nikki didn't seem to mind the tapwater when it had a teabag in it (was quite happily drinking something out of a mug before the whole water debacle)

Shazam. where to start? the i'm not a rent-boy. ok, only once... but it doesn't count because i was beaten up and he took the money back thing was odd.

hadn't realised before now that english could be a second language after welsh. is he missing his a-levels or is it just his friends who are sitting them? seems an odd thing to give up to be on tv. (ditto the world cup).

lisa sat on the sofa with a HUGE plate of food on her lap, eyes as big as saucers not knowing what to eat next. reminded me of bjork.

Oh dear. I've seen Shabaz's cock. He flashed it to Nikki and Dickie - at Nikki's insistance (Nikki: "it's so small!").

There was a big fight last night as well - with Shabaz at the centre and the uvvers overreacting a tad. Richard told everyone "right, we're not going to talk to him now", a bit of playground politics that brings the whole thing down to Shabaz's level.

Sezer: still the worst.

Ha ha, see this Shahbaz guy? Well, many a year ago a friend of mine was trying to get some work modelling and shit and he got the chance of some work at Xmas as a "Gay Santa". This entailed trooping round the gays bars of Glasgow giving out free condoms + God knows what else + Shahbaz was also hired to be Santa's helper - in drag of course. So my friend, not teh gay by the way, had to endure an entire evening in Shahbaz's company AND good-naturedly endure endless cracks about "What's in your sack Santa?" and "I think I've pulled a cracker here" from burly Gay neds with bogbrush moustaches.

Also I think I might have set fire to Shahbaz once - tho I dispute it. It was in the Arches and there was some kinda performance art nonsense going on among the clubbing, which was really seriously annoying me. At one point someone in a long white paper dress climbed to the top of a ladder and so I picked up one of the candles which were on the tables and set fire to the bottom of the dress - which went up like a rocket! I thought it was a girl but my friend Mark told me last night he thought it might have been Shahbaz.

shahbaz [2] wanging on and on and fucking on about "boulder holders" was the final straw for me. he really is like a badly adjusted hyperactive child.

I only saw the aftermath of the fight, though Shabaz seemed to have called Lisa and/or Lea an "imbecile".
Lea: "that's the worst possible thing you can call someone!"

Grace looked fine in her little boyshorts. I think I prefer her to Imogen and her bleached teeth who doesn't do or say anything. But is hella pretty.

― David Orton (scarlet), Monday, 22 May 2006 09:17 (twenty years ago)

I'm not bothering to spell Shabaz properly as he won't be there long enough for it to matter.

Was that the fight between Shabbazz and Glyn, vis a vis the attacking of personal space. Good on Glyn for being the first one to bring it up, he is 18 Shahbazz is 36 and in a hetereo relationship that would be seen to be a bit on the creepily grooming side.

― Pete (Pete), Monday, 22 May 2006 09:23 (twenty years ago)

Yes, definitely too chummy at the moment (witness BB4 for how this can ruin the series). But that might be because Shabaz is soaking up all the ill-feeling for now. There are a couple of unexploded bombs in the Lisa/Bono thing and Nikki's definitely going to freak out if she doesn't get her suitcase soon.

On the plus side, no one has accused anyone of being "fake" or boasted they're "just being real" yet.

lisa is kinda feisty: she also had a pop at shahbaz (pete: good point, btw) in the diary room, to his face. well, okay: she was sitting behind him, so it was kinda behind his back, but you get the idea. i don't think she's likely to bottle things up for long.

Shab in "Hiding Food" storm...

Fingers immediately starting angling towards Shahbaz, but some Housemates were still willing to concoct wacky theories to defend him.

"I don't believe Shahbaz did this," said Lea . "I think there are secret Housemates - Big Brother is doing this on purpose."

Shahbaz, who had not uttered a single word all day, was finally asked to speak up. Richard asked him to "be honest" and Shahbaz seem relieved as the admission burst out of him.

"Yes I did it!" he proclaimed. "I did it because you p****** me off!"

The Housemates exploded with a mixture of rage and disbelief, with Sezer demanding: "Why would you do that, are you stupid?"

"You shouldn't bite the hand that feeds you," retorted Shahbaz limply, prompting lots of swearing, particularly from Lisa. He then sat in silence as the furious Housemates took it in turns to lecture him.

Richard claimed the act was "the most immature thing" he'd ever seen, Nikki said "you've made me hate you" and Shahbaz's final ally Lea told him he'd "lost a friend".

.. as it seems to have already been.

A task that involved going into the diary room for reasons undisclosed = most exciteable member going "Me me me can i do it plz pls pls??"

― mark grout (mark grout), Monday, 22 May 2006 10:46 (twenty years ago)

Pity in some ways that he is immune from noms as it would have been nice to see a man go first (never happened). But keeping him there for a couple of weeks will clearly be quite funny as absolutely everyone hates him now.

He might walk though.

― Pete (Pete), Monday, 22 May 2006 11:02 (twenty years ago)

i doubt he'll walk.

watching the live feed is telling me nothing. in ten minutes, i've had 30 seconds of sound. perhaps this is partly because of pete, i dunno.

o! the sound's back. they're talking about how shahbaz should be stripped of his hat. glyn managed to get out "big brother wants to keep him in because that's their entertainment" before the sound went again.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 22 May 2006 11:05 (twenty years ago)

i don't get that though - i don't find him entertaining in the slightest.
annoying to viewers != entertaining

― teh_kit has 21 friends (g-kit), Monday, 22 May 2006 11:13 (twenty years ago)

sound back. lots of people accusing shahbaz of being a bully, mostly based on what happened with glyn (ie not very much). glyn looking really fucking embarrassed in the middle of it. glyn's armpit hair is horrible.

fuck this, i need to go to work.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 22 May 2006 11:14 (twenty years ago)

Missing from that quote above :-

The peaceful start to the morning proved to be nothing more than the calm before the storm. After a foodless hour, Richard was stunned to find the Housemates' supplies hidden in a bin in the garden.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Monday, 22 May 2006 11:20 (twenty years ago)

lisa's over reaction about Shahbaz- 'after BB is over, people will be spitting on him in the street'.

also, did he really confess to farting on everybody's pillows?

― Ste (Fuzzy), Monday, 22 May 2006 11:34 (twenty years ago)

shabazz (I started spelling it this way oh well) no friends now

dawn had a go at him for always saying he's paki and a poof and that he isn't doing anything for people's perceptions of those groups and he's the only one who keeps using/self-applying labels and if he wants to be an individual he should stop saying things are because he's homosexual and pakistani when no-one else does and that he is reinforcing some stereotypes and stuff

glad dawn told him things like that even though it will obviously make no diff whatsoever

I'm still catching up with Friday's show. Nikki seems to be the most spoilt and stupid contestant BB has ever had. I think her ratty little teeth and that white poo ball she had on entry maybe prejudiced me.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 22 May 2006 19:00 (twenty years ago)

It was _spectacularly_ queeny, but that's kinda Richard's schtick.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:05 (twenty years ago)

More seriously, Dawn and Sezer got it spot on over the bridge to nowehere earlier - Glyn just looks lost, and I heard Bonner say her first words since opening night earlier. I can see those two and Nikki being the first 3 to go - Shazbat = Ahmed = Jason/Victor = Craig: UK loves to see someone who nobody else likes kept in to make the rest of them suffer.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:06 (twenty years ago)

Well. no-one seemed to disagree with him. Though bless Dawn for trying to knock some sense into Shahbaz's head, even though it was a total waste of time.

(xpost)

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:07 (twenty years ago)

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:09 (twenty years ago)

Re: Shazbat's cock flash - I suspect the second time he flashes will be on tomorrow night's show since apparently it's more blatant.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:11 (twenty years ago)

sezer was OK in the diary room, saying he'd resolved himself to no hat and no case, but I knew he was getting a hat. he was lucky shabazz picked on him before he picked on anyone else and gave sezer the chance to deal w/ it which he has, quite well

he's still a fanny

pete: massive cock, shabazz: barely a cock at all

how ironic!!

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:13 (twenty years ago)

I don't understand the hate for anyone except Shahbaz. Really. He's removed the fun of randomly hating different people each day for me by being a total and utter tosswipe.

Sezer's arse = as good as everyone says up there. Really. I said he was cute on arrival, and I have probably only found about three housemates in any way attractive since the very start of Big Brother. (Scott, Spencer, Alex)

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:14 (twenty years ago)

I fear that Shabaz is deeply psychologically disturbed and should probably be removed for his own good. Richard was unneccessarily cruel, I thought. Pete is an enormous sweetheart and probably pretty smart.

― chap who would dare to be a nerd, not a geek (chap), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:14 (twenty years ago)

the second shabazz flash was still last night though after the box prize task and just before the argument with leah.

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:15 (twenty years ago)

More seriously, Dawn and Sezer got it spot on over the bridge to nowehere earlier

That was Grace, wasn't it? She is going to be the Elizabeth of this series, I think.

richard was awful. no one really joined in in his "shazzam" bullying & good on them! the house has quite a high proportion of nice people compared to last (where everyone was vile). i enjoyed nikki's analysis of the romantic connectons in the house. she must stay!

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:22 (twenty years ago)

That made me warm to Nikki as well. I like how she made it all sound as complicated as if she was explaining the causes of the First World War or something.

― chap who would dare to be a nerd, not a geek (chap), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:23 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, with the sole exception of Shahbaz, they seem an alright bunch really (actually, I have yet to form an opinion of Mikey and Bonner since they have been *too* quiet, but they don't seem hateful, despite Mikey's C-man-esque pre-entry blurb)

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:26 (twenty years ago)

Nikki's face is a bizarre shape.

(And yes, whoever said it upthread was right - I meant Grace and not Dawn)

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:27 (twenty years ago)

yes, nikki was good on the sezer-imogen-mikey - grace - - george conundrum

this year does have a lot of people who seem like they would get on but maybe it's just shabazz's uniting force

richard went far too far w/ his banishing stuff, I def agree

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:27 (twenty years ago)

Oh yes, I did forget Pete. Not sure where he fits actually. Maybe he's his own category.

Shahbaz is clearly a total fuck-up, it seems a bit weird to hate on him too much, ailsa.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:28 (twenty years ago)

Pete already 2/1 favourite.
Richard 12/1
Sezer 15/1

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:28 (twenty years ago)

BREAKING NEWS

Mikey has revealed Nikki to be his least favourite housemate so far, explaining: "Out of everyone I think she annoys me the most." Sezer agreed, adding: "She doesn't know how to control her feelings. She seems really shallow." A likeminded George noted: "She's not very good at holding conversations. I like her, I think she's sweet, but you couldn't sit down with her and have a conversation."

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:32 (twenty years ago)

Shahbaz is clearly a total fuck-up, it seems a bit weird to hate on him too much, ailsa.

It's his stubborn insistence on being the centre of attention and not listening to a word anyone says to him. We're going to get straight back into the Jodie Marsh argument from CBB aren't we?

36 going on 6.

― stirmonster (stirmonster), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:47 (twenty years ago)

They don't seem like an overly hateful bunch of people at this moment in time. Sezar would have been overwhelmed a bit in last year's house, here he gets to play alpha male without anyone really bothering to compete with him.

Also, all the housemates seem much more clued up about the game this year. There's less of a feeling of "I have a gameplan" and more of a "I'm not going to let Big Brother fuck with my head". Shahbaz excepted obviously, although he appears to be doing that all by himself. Still, he makes great telly - this would be deathly dull if he wasn't in there. Not even Kitten managed to piss this many people off this early.

Nikki really endeared herself to me today, Richard came off pretty badly.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:52 (twenty years ago)

My guess is that it's going to be just like BB6, with Shabhaz as Kitten: when he goes, then the united front formed against him will dissolve into two factions. Maybe Sezer vs Richard, they both seem the alpha desirants this year.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 22 May 2006 20:54 (twenty years ago)

funny since richard is always shagging sezer

hmmm. coming home from work, reading this thread first, then starting to watch the 9pm roundup that - yes, i am a fucking tragic bastard - i videoed is a very odd way to do things. i'm looking forward to it, tho. when i'm on this shift, i'll be using this thread as a barometer of whether it's worth watching the round-up each night.

in fact: tomorrow night i won't be able to tape it 'cos mrs fiendish will be taping desperate housewives or something. so yo, keep it detailed for me ;)

an observation based on the first few seconds: dawn might well become a hero later on in this episode, but her "i can't have a shower naked, it might jeapordise my career" comment was spectacularly stupid. YOU'RE ON BIG BROTHER, WOMAN. what did you expect?

this pretty much sums it up for me. i think shahbaz is borderline ... something. whether it's a form of psychosis or just deep, deep dickwittery i'm not sure.

woah! i just got this e-mail from a dear friend. subject: KEEP SHAHBAZ IN THE HOUSE.

This is not some stupid junk email thing, this a real life WARNING. My lovely girlfriend has the sad misfortune to live across the stairwell from this MANIAC fruit-loop nut-job. If you thing he is excruciating to watch on TV, then he is a 100 times WORSE to live next to in real life. As long as he is tucked up in that mad house, then my girlfriend can sleep soundly in her bed at night.
So, please, please, please, please, please, please, find the kindness in your heart NOT TO VOTE HIM OUT. Help make a beautiful girl feel happy and safe.
Email this to as many people as you know and spread the word. You too can help make the world (and one block of flats in Glasgow in particular) a better place. So...
KEEP SHAHBAZ IN THE HOUSE!!!
Thank you, one and all...

anyway, like i was saying. shahbaz. boy, was i ever wrong about someone on first impressions.

i enjoyed nikki's analysis of the romantic connectons in the house. she must stay!

pah. she's a buffoon. okay, that was marginally entertaining, but trust me: the whole "i'm a character in a crap american teen drama" thing will pale after another couple of days.

On the subject of Nikki, I've just watched Saturday's and good God, her and her bottled water. And the "migraine" which somehow became "light-headedness". I blame the parents.

Shahbaz's grown-man-acting-like-a-child fits reminded me of Ahmed, who I'd completely forgotten about.

I'm not seeing much of the BB shows, as Dawn cannot stand more than 1 min of shazbam at a time.

BB "exploiting" Tourette's says group
Day 3, 12:08 BST - by Dave West

A Tourette's Syndrome group has criticised Channel 4 for using Big Brother contestant Pete as a "figure of fun".

The Tourette Syndrome Association has received complaints from parents and carers worried that Pete's actions could cause other suffers to be bullied.

Cartoonist Pete's severe case of the genetic syndrome means he has fits of swearing and twitching, as witnessed in Thursday's first episode.

President of the association Roy Hillard voiced his concerns on the behalf of sufferers.

"Ninety per cent of Touretters are not like that and I'm worried that people will associate him with Tourette's," he explained. "I'm particularly concerned about how it will affect children. Kids watch this show and it could lead to bullying or them being mocked at school."

One mother of children with the condition said: "It is beyond belief that in a polite society this condition should be parodied in this way."

Channel 4 said it thought seeing Pete could "help and inspire" others, and added: "All our housemates are chosen on the basis of their personality. Having a formal disability should not hold people back from being a housemate."

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 08:50 (twenty years ago)

i don't see how this will make it more likely that tourette's sufferers will be bullied.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 08:51 (twenty years ago)

polite society?

― not-goodwin (not-goodwin), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 08:52 (twenty years ago)

1) He's not a parody.
2) Kids probably get beat up already for having tourettes. Things will either not change, or by having someone visible and likeable, may even get some respect.
3) that's it.

― mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 08:53 (twenty years ago)

The touretty comedian on the late BB Dermot show made a point::

"I'd do a job interview and think "I didn't get affected by my tourettes at all there" but I never got the job"

Polite society (classic) would deem to keep tourette sufferers away from all other polite society.

― mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 08:55 (twenty years ago)

You wouldn't know that 60% of people with tourettes (please not with the tourette's sufferers, most of 'em aren't suffering) had tourettes most of the time. Minor twitching and concentration issues is all that affects them. But I cannot see how Pete, already favourite to win by a country mile - and not because he is a funny frak but because he seems genuinely nice and in charge of his entertaining extrovertism - could do anything but help a misunderstood syndrome. Kids with extreme tourettes will get the piss ripped out of them anyway. Anyone else who is borderline, Pete is a sympathetic and helpfully educational figure (you know in the way he is swearing all the time etc).

― Pete (Pete), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 09:22 (twenty years ago)

> 2) Kids probably get beat up already for having tourettes. Things will either not change, or by having someone visible and likeable, may even get some respect.

didn't i hear him say that it was bullying that made his tourettes kick in? maybe that was just the swearing part.

― koogs (koogs), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 09:27 (twenty years ago)

Shabaz is my favourite housemate by far this year. Apart from Pete (who is the only one sticking by the poor, troubled Shabaz).
And I've seen both their cocks.

Imogen looks like a young Joanne Whalley.

Sezer is still a squat, ugly cunt.

― David Orton (scarlet), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 09:30 (twenty years ago)

Exactly. xpost..

The TComedian guy also said that it was basically the press geeing up for a scrap with Channel 4, using whoever might be handy for an anti quote.

My guess is that the Tourettes society are having a scrap between themselves about this.

Pete is right now favourite, and that's despite as much as because of his t.

― mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 09:34 (twenty years ago)

Polite Society deemed that it was not nice to observe Dwarves in an entertainment capacity. So the shows stopped. And polite society refrained from offering them any other kind of work.

I'll shut up about polite society....

Further to the Sezer picture above, it's been revealed he was in the test house at the same time as Bekki BB5. They spent most of their time naked and petting apparently, and only stopped short of full sex because she got taken out of the house.

He's in this for the "first shag" cheque, surely?

― Barnaby (Barnaby), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 10:27 (twenty years ago)

The test house is when they have people in for a couple of weeks before the contestants to check (and rectify) camera angles, blind spots, house layout... it's like the show itself, but you get paid more because there's no prize to be won.

None of the previous contestants got the cheque because they all denied anything happened (vice Makosi's pregnancy test). IMO Sezer will be much more blatant and just fuck on camera.

― jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 10:51 (twenty years ago)

yes, that's the one. he did a mime of sezer grabbing women and said he was "throwing is cock around" and that he didn't think it was very nice.

the guardian coverage deserves some commentary. they used to basically ignore bb until galloway on cbb this year. now they have like two blogs devoted to big brother. but all the comments say generic guardian reader things like 'it shouldn't be allowed! these people are ill!' etc.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 12:12 (twenty years ago)

the guardian talk boards always have huge BB threads though - I used to post on them but can't keep up with them any more, plus they tend to be full of cockfarmers these days

Still, "top spec. bitch" is so getting nicked by me and I appreciate that he doesn't dig Imo on age basis, if only because he's the same age as my bro and some of his gal pals are...anyway, he's wrong and yet right simultaneously.

R is LOVELY (I like her) but any man would think MENTALIST. She is the most gawrgeous of the O'Sisters, and K looks like Sarah Cracknell and Imo looks like if Calista Flockhart ate a bit and did yoga. So that is saying something. It must be VERY difficult for O'Brother to bring girls home.

x-post: i find it hard to feel much sympathy for shahbaz. yes, he's got "issues", but so have an awful lot of people. the difference is he hasn't ever even attempted to deal with any of his, and has instead (or so it seems; i mean, i admit i'm guessing here, but ...) spent most of his life expecting people to make allowances for him. like dawn so rightly said, it's got nothing to do with him being pakistani or gay. it's to do with him being devoid of any social skills, utterly self-centred, and basically a total knob.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 21:13 (twenty years ago)

Digital Spy forum users currently claiming Sezer's grand lifestyle is not funded from his age as a stockbroker (apparently he's pulling a Ruth Badger style "overstating" of his job), but rather from proceeds of his f4th3r's dru9 running operation.

Sezer has shared his admiration for Glyn, urging the Welsh schoolboy never to change.
His comments came after Glyn shared details of his simple weekly routine with the group.
"On Monday I go to school till half 3, then I go swimming with my mates, then play badminton," he said. "Wednesday I come home, I start work at half 4, finish at 8, then do some schoolwork. Thursday I come home, sometimes do schoolwork, I go over the mountains to the pub. Saturday we all go out all together, Sunday more schoolwork."
"You're going to be a legend," a smiling Sezer told him. "You're such a lovely boy. You're such a pure, genuine guy."

"Don't ever change," he added as they shook hands. "Stay exactly who you are."

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 22:03 (twenty years ago)

what? so when glyn's 46 he should still be going to school? sezer, you are the cock's cock. you are the winnit's winnit. you toll the big bell-end more heartily than any other contestant in history. in short, you are a spunker.

i bet he fucking wins too.

Now, here's a picture that's ripe for discussion.

Imogen: "I like the new Oneida album."
Sezer: "YSI?"

"I just want to take CARE of him"

"not in that way, obviously..."

I didn't really understand this. Did she mean "not in a Mafia way"?

That convo between george and mikey was VILE.
"do you think any of the birds will get banged in here?"
"imogen is the top spec. bitch."

-- jed_ (colin_o_har...), May 23rd, 2006.

OTM, so depressing. note george ever so slightly dropping the accent.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 07:10 (twenty years ago)

I don't understand what's wrong with that Sezer/Glyn quote up there. I started to hate George and Mikey after that conversation though.

Nikki is a mole, I agree. Has anyone outlined exactly what C4 want you to think in the Diary Room before?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 07:23 (twenty years ago)

nikki in the diary room was 24 carat gold.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 07:30 (twenty years ago)

Don't start that fucking "mole" business again, what a meaningless crock of shite that all is.

Let me get this straight: people having a mental breakdown = "total knobs", group who round on them as one if they don't conform to the group dynamic = acceptable. Good to see we've come a long way since the Dark Ages.

Pete and Nikki seemed to be getting very close late last night. Meanwhile Imogen turned her face away when Sezer went in for the kiss : "I'll never live that down! Three million people just saw me get blown out!"

Glyn now getting his head shaved by Big Dick.

― David Orton (scarlet), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 09:24 (twenty years ago)

Pairing off:

Imogen and Sezer: She's not going to 'do' him in the house. So, it's basically up to if he can wait or is he going to annoy her too much.

Mikey and Grace.

Peter and Nikki, it seems.

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 09:55 (twenty years ago)

Let me get this straight: people having a mental breakdown = "total knobs", group who round on them as one if they don't conform to the group dynamic = acceptable

hmm. i think you're being unfair, though. it's not as if shahbaz went into the house and immediately started panicking/crying/threatening to kill himself. he went in and immediately started bugging the fuck out of everybody with his OTT dramatics and centre-of-attention fuckwittery. i refuse to believe this has anything to do with a personality crisis; it does, however, have everything to do with his basic personality, which is that of a sad little boy who never grew up. in its own way, this is perhaps quite sad; however, i don't see anything there that he couldn't fix quite easily if he wanted to.

i mean, what was it he said about being on the dole? that he's unemployable? fuck off, shahbaz. you're not unemployable; you're just a twat with an ego problem. go away, get a fucking job and stop being such a dick about everything.

the "breakdown"-esque stuff began once the persona he'd created - the all-singing, all-dancing, all-irritating look-at-me-i'm-so-different shahbaz - began to get shot down in flames by the other HMs. by this point, you can hardly blame them for not giving much of a fuck. for christ's sake, we're talking about a man who wipes away little pretendy crocodile tears when he talks about anything "emotional". regardless of whether or not he was having some kind of mental collapse (and FWIW i think he was), by that point he'd burned his bridges with everybody.

like a few people said yesterday, richard was unnecessarily harsh with him but i think that if i'd been locked up with him for three days i'd probably have felt the same. he is a professional irritant.

anyway. he's gone now, which is probably a good thing. i'd be very interested to see his pre-house psychological profile ... that said, i think he's a neurotic mess rather than a psychotic one, and i believe *he* could do more than anyone else to help himself.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:10 (twenty years ago)

the russell brand show last night was quite funny i haveta admit. paul morley was on it. they had to be coy about shahbaz's mental state. i dunno, he was a dick before the breakdown. unless he was having a breakdown the whole sodding time. in which case he shouldn't have been on, and you can't blame the others for not knowing that he was on the brink and not just an insanely annoying attention-hound.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:14 (twenty years ago)

I expected Dawn or Richard to figure it out.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:24 (twenty years ago)

Well clearly Channel 4 with their psychologists(!) did not work it our until they yanked him, and they were
a) watching everything
b) professionals
c) shameless trying to sell a mental breakdown as entertainment.

Its a tricky one, considering the power of the mob - but Shazbaz brought most of the aprobation 'pon himself: its difficult to fully sign up to him as victim. Shame on Ch4 though (its a thin line between being a painful showoff and mentally disturbed).

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:32 (twenty years ago)

i'll need to see what happened yesterday.

i mean, he wasn't like anyone else with a mental illness that i've seen. i guess he wasn't on meds.

-- mark grout (mark.grou...) (webmail), Yesterday 1:07 PM. (later) (link)

Looks like that's what happened. (If you think this is me going 'told you' umm well, yeah.)

his "Oh did we get Mint and Basil? No? Oh god, I've made a bad mistake" was the point where I thought "He really has lost it, if he ever had it in the first place"

Meds? Don't people get that if they are a danger to themselves and/or others, as opposed to being just generally irritating?

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:51 (twenty years ago)

I didn't have the faintest clue what he was talking about with all that mint and basil stuff.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:54 (twenty years ago)

no, me neither. well, i did, but i had to regress to being a six-year-old, and i can't convey it in english.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:54 (twenty years ago)

It was also the 'i have to make an announcement' which was fair enough, but when he did get the complete silence, he basically said 'umm..' a lot.

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 10:56 (twenty years ago)

haha enrq OTM. i knew what he was doing but i haven't used that mindset for nearly 30 years.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:04 (twenty years ago)

really? can one of you even try to explain? 'cos honestly, i was totally lost. like mark, i just thought, fuck, this guy's crossed a line somewhere now.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:06 (twenty years ago)

it's something like apologizing for doing fuck-all but seeming really contrite about it so that people will say 'oh it's ok, silly you, have a scone' kind of thing.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:08 (twenty years ago)

hmm. still doesn't really compute. but what you both say about it being a childlike thing to do makes perfect sense wrt shahbaz's other behaviour ;)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:21 (twenty years ago)

it's like apologising for being a cunt by pretending it was a misunderstanding but also pretending you've had some kind of *moment* where it all came together and made sense in your head but that that also kinda confused you a bit so you can't exactly explain where the missed connection came from and your kinda trying to confuse other people as well so that they'll give up and, as enrq says, give you a scone to shut you up.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:27 (twenty years ago)

Effectively, he wanted to make lip service of apologising - what he'd done with the food was too big for him to admit to and face the music, so instead he gratuitously apologised for the actions he did BEFORE the hiding food etc, which serves the dual function of a) providing an apology and b) excusing his further actions, as they were based on a mistake he apologised for. Or so I thort!

― Lucretia My Reflection (Lucretia My Reflection), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:38 (twenty years ago)

i think there were multiple shopping lists that lisa wrote and he ended up using the wrong one (or amending one to his own tastes / the budget and crossing the wrong stuff off (mint, basil)). but yes, muddled explanation and one that went on too long.

richard is a knob with his sending to coventry and his belittling interruptions.

shahbaz: are you alright?
other person: (thinking hatchet was being buried), yeah fine.
shahbaz: well, i still have issues...

lol

― koogs (koogs), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:38 (twenty years ago)

i don't like cezar either for all his 'you're nothing in here mang' trying-it east end bullshit.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 11:41 (twenty years ago)

haha, my whole office just started discussing bb

my boss came over and asked who watched it and kenny sez "rick's your man" (even though he watches it plenty) and then everyone was shouting around the office about it

boss sez he's gonna offer shahbaz a job (since he heard he used to be a receptionist at my friend's old office)

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:26 (twenty years ago)

what's the deal with shatwaz and employment? has he really being on unemployment for 15 years? it sounds unlikely.

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:27 (twenty years ago)

I heard 21 but also know he worked (albeit briefly) as a receptionist at an architects' office (fired for tying up phonelines and inappropriateness, apparently)

Glyn, Dawn and Bonner up for eviction.

Tricky, but I guess Bonner must go...

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:17 (twenty years ago)

On entry, she seemed to be the one that'd 'kick off' in an argument.

She hasn't. It doesn't seem quite fair that the choice has been limited by this dumb 'brotherhood' thing.

Glyn a bit dull, but the BB 'rule' = a girl must go first.

Dawn vulnerable given the other, unwritten rule.

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:24 (twenty years ago)

Bonner: 1/3
Glyn: 9/2
Dawn: 11/2

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:24 (twenty years ago)

The Brotherhood was supposed to be more divisive than normal nominations, but it hasn't really worked out that way.

I'm more amused/baffled as to how they forced Glyn to go through an entire week in just one pair of shorts.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:26 (twenty years ago)

Dawn's talking about walking, apparently.

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:27 (twenty years ago)

Dawn vulnerable given the other, unwritten rule

what do you mean?

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:28 (twenty years ago)

Dawn's been the most interesting of the three, but that means nothing. Gut reaction is Bonner though.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:28 (twenty years ago)

Is this the Faria Alam rule? (xpost)

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:29 (twenty years ago)

So do I.

On a straight choice, Bonnie to go.

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:32 (twenty years ago)

I think the Big Brotherhood failed as a gimmick, really. The first eviction should really be someone who has reached the end of their potential, not just one of the quiet boring ones who might well need a bit of space to show their true qualities/awfulness.

On the other hand Bonnie had her chance to extrovert a bit and didn't take it, it's not like anyone will miss her.

― Tom (Groke), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:32 (twenty years ago)

What is the unwritten rule??

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:33 (twenty years ago)

White is right.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:36 (twenty years ago)

I'm guessing it's what Faria said in CBB about how a member of an ethnic minority would never win. (xpost)

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:36 (twenty years ago)

We're going to need a new unwritten rule now!

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:42 (twenty years ago)

Makosi could well have won last year, or Kemal, had things gone differently. They were both favourites at some point. Nadia doesn't count? I don't think this unwritten rule really holds up.

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:52 (twenty years ago)

Neither do I. But Faria made a big deal out of it, and she speaks truth, apparently.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:56 (twenty years ago)

Makosi would have NAILED it last year if not for hot-tub double-standard incident.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:58 (twenty years ago)

Well for one its been written.

Would Bonner be the most boring person to leave first (if we don't count Shazbats walk as a leave)?

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:59 (twenty years ago)

seems a bit odd that they'd evict someone and get a replacement for shahbaz at the same time rather than just leave them in. i guess it's all about the phone call revenue though. and the golden ticket thing gives them more options given there'll be a pool of possible new entrants.

who was the asian girl who walked early? sunita? did she walk as early as the shazbot?

― koogs (koogs), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:18 (twenty years ago)

Sunita walked either on the first night or the next morning. She was a barrister and suddenly had a 'my career! oh noes!' moment.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:21 (twenty years ago)

I *think* Sunita went on the monday or Tuesday, not _that_ early. But, yeah, it'd be hard to put together a "greatest moments" package for her.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:22 (twenty years ago)

Looks like Dawn's walking, on the basis that even if she survives she won't get her case.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:38 (twenty years ago)

Shazbot is on BBLB just now. I shall report back if no-one else is watching.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 17:39 (twenty years ago)

Shahbaz before going into the house:

"i try and be tolerant and objective"
"if you can't let it go like water off a duck's back, you can't survive"

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 17:41 (twenty years ago)

He's now on about how his past "homelessness, starvation, sexual abuse" [pauses for reaction, putting hand on heart in melodramatic fashion, doesn't get one] "you know, molestation" has affected him and Dermot is having none of it. He's threatening tears at every moment - why is he putting himself through this if not a great big cry for attention?

"It's been the most cathartic experience of my life". He hasn't learned anything at all from it, really, you want catharsis, get professional help.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 17:46 (twenty years ago)

It looks like they have 60 minutes to stop Dawn from walking out as well.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

He's now accusing Richard of acting like the only gay in the village.

argh. it will be a disaster if dawn leaves.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 17:56 (twenty years ago)

― David Orton (scarlet), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 18:16 (twenty years ago)

being a dobber != "a major crime".

fucking hell, though: dawn! what's her problem? she's the most sane and potentially interesting person in there, but this whole "i can't go in the shower"/"i'm going to walk" thing is mad. i repeat: IT'S BIG BROTHER, WOMAN. WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?

i hope she stays; but if she walks, it proves she ain't the woman i hoped. or something.

right, back to work. fuck.

Right, first up, I'm not claiming to be any sort of dynamic personality, so leave me out of this please. The day I become a performing monkey on television for the entertainment of the nation is the day you get to judge me on the same levels as those who are doing that already. I also haven't claimed he's committed any crimes, but he is one deluded and slightly worrying individual with no social skills whatsoever, oh, Jeez, just read grimly's post up there about what's wrong with him (which, incidentally, was also a response to you completely misinterpreting everything people have been saying on this thread)

Bonner TALKS! For about a minute!

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 19:56 (twenty years ago)

Whatever Shabaz's reasons for being a twat (I think it might be a personality disorder rather than a mental illness myself), he doesn't seem to have enjoyed upsetting people anywhere near as much as Leah, Sezar and Richard were doing when they were locking him out and calling him names. Just because he's a fucknut it doesn't make the other side in the right. Saying that, I doubt anyone in there is qualified to even recognise personality disorders and mental illness, never mind knowing how to deal with someone with one, they dealt with it the wrong way but it was unfair for BB to expect them to know how to deal with it correctly.

― Cressida Breem (neruokruokruokne?), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 19:58 (twenty years ago)

Man, someone shut Bonner the fuck up, she's been on for six minutes now.

And here's Sezer missing the roofy coladas he orders for all the girls back home.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:00 (twenty years ago)

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:04 (twenty years ago)

Was that Mikey and Grace snogging? I'm pretty sure it was.

Anyway, as predicted at the beginning of the thread, Bonner did indeed say "Am I bovvered?" in the Diary Room.

Lots of people on DS talking about stopping watching.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:05 (twenty years ago)

Bonner "I don't like people judging me". Er, what exactly are you doing on Big Brother, love?

Yep, Mikey and Grace.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:06 (twenty years ago)

Ooh! I'd think Mikey was a top bloke were it not for the intro video comedy chauvinism.

Sezer was being a vindictive bastard earlier with Shahbaz. As horrible as it must've been living with him, Sezer was low.

― Cracks (Crackity), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:18 (twenty years ago)

Pete. George. Dawn. That's about it, so far. The rest are just meh. Glyn will be evicted because Bonner's crying will save her with the public and she seems to have a bit of support over on digital spy, and Dawn will probably have walked anyway.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:21 (twenty years ago)

Oh, Lisa and Lea are OK too, I guess. But Pete is the greatest housemate ever in the history of Big Brother. I love him.

They locked him outside in the garden and were dancing around throwing around suggestions such as "let's steal his clothes!".

Pete is very good looking. I didn't notice when he was wearing that stupid hat on the first night.

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:42 (twenty years ago)

Basically Sezer and leah started biting his head off constantly with no provocation, then they locked him out in the garden (using Sezer's belt as a lock) and laughed at him. He got in the hot tub, and after a while A couple of em stole his clothes. Later he walked into the living room, and everyone got up and left en masse, except for George. They were being bullying tossers.

xpost

― chap who would dare to be a nerd, not a geek (chap), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:42 (twenty years ago)

Systematic bullying. Ignoring him. Locking him out of the house then giggling in full view of him. All (except George) getting up and leaving the room when he came in. (I think some, Nikki, Sezer and Richard amongst them were more vocal in the giggling and nastiness stakes, others were more passive)

xpost, yeah, what nick said

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:42 (twenty years ago)

Mark, your new nickname makes me think you're Kate for some reason. It's odd. Nearly as odd as another Mark C hanging around too.

Cathy, I said that upthread about Pete too. Strangely enough, it was when he had Dawn's wig on that I saw it. (see also Richey Edwards comparison, which is a GOOD THING in my book)

I still haven't worked out who Nikki reminds me of. Right now, I'm thinking maybe Nicola Stapleton (Mandy off EastEnders) but I don't think that's it either.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:45 (twenty years ago)

Jacqui Dixon from Brookside in her strip-mall beautician phase. Or some unholy combo of her and Jennifer Ellison.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:48 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, Pete reminds me of someone else as well as Richey E., but I can't think who yet. He has an endearingly feminine laugh.

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 20:53 (twenty years ago)

suzy, no, I discounted Jacqui Dixon a while back, same with Jennifer Ellison.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:04 (twenty years ago)

Nikki's face is quite worrying. I hope she doesn't take pills, her jaw movements would be truly frightning.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:13 (twenty years ago)

Pete now my favourite, he's fantastic.

I can understand why some people are upset about the Shahbaz bullying but I myself haven't forget what a complete annoying idiot he's been since he set foot in the house. So I can also understand why the housemates have reacted in such a way.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:19 (twenty years ago)

I can't. Ignore him or reprimand him, sure, but don't actively torment the guy. there's no excuse for that.

― chap who would dare to be a nerd, not a geek (chap), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:20 (twenty years ago)

Apparently they are now refusing to let Dawn leave, because they'd opened the voting lines before she went into the diary room and told them. I hope Glyn gets voted out, then Dawn and Bonner walk - it would serve Endemol right.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:23 (twenty years ago)

Nicola Stapleton crossed my mind too, her and Shannon from Footballers' Wives are the nearest I've managed, but I'm still sure there's someone else.

― Cressida Breem (neruokruokruokne?), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:25 (twenty years ago)

I'm also thinking Vanessa Feltz in that period when she lost all the weight.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:26 (twenty years ago)

ch4 won't want dawn to walk (i think at this stage they would spare almost everyone else apart from pete) so to spare them any embarrasment my reckoning is that they will spin this "whoever does not get evicted will never receive their suitcase" line into somethng else - possibly that they will get a huge gift, possibly new clothes.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:45 (twenty years ago)

The anti Shabaz stuff was extreme to an unwarrented degree, but is a perfect illustration of mob mentality. That only George and (later admittedly) Pete seemed uncomfortable with it is to their credit. Cannot completely blame the people who had been mostly attacked by Shabaz - Lisa, Lea - but the people who come off worse are the ringleaders, the ones who want to seem cool by instigating further bullying (ie those most in fear of being bullied). Richard is a twunt is what I am saying.

Big problem with an early walker is that they all think they can do it, and all will petulantly use it against BB. Its not a million miles away from the house of tiny tearaways.

pete: yes, i agree to an extent but what ste says above is spot-on. with hindsight, we can all say: "o noes, shahbaz is so fragile." but for a good two days he behaved like a big chopping-action cock - and remember, i really liked him when he went in! - and i can understand why the mob mentality might have come about.

That's my guess, but does The Sun splash on those kinda stories? That's more a Sport/Star thing, surely?

yes, but ... well, we'll see.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:50 (twenty years ago)

Oh no, I agree as well, but as for Shabazz's knobendiness placed them in a position where they were dealing with it. The sending to coventry, whilst a touch childish, was clearly a good way of dealing with him as it removed a reaction from him. Stealing his trousers was just mean and was utilising the power of the mobility.

I still think Big Brother allowed it to get too out of hand. A well placed intervention could have done him the world of good (such as calling him into the diary room when he was stealing the food). What Shabaz did not get was the authority figure that could tell him off and put him in his place (closest was Dawn - who also comes out of the whole sorry affair quite well).

There seems to me to be a real young/old divide waiting to happen in the house.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:58 (twenty years ago)

There's a hefty element of Only Gay In The Village about Richard. I think they should throw another gayist in there just to annoy him.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 25 May 2006 07:51 (twenty years ago)

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Thursday, 25 May 2006 07:52 (twenty years ago)

Nikki's coughing and spluttering was about the only time she let a bloke cum in her mouth, she said so at the time.

George did actually talk to him, of sorts. Shahbaz said something like "Are you not leaving with the rest of them?" and George replied that he had nothing against him, so had no reason to leave.

Sezer and Imogen spent hours last night discussing which order they would get the remainder voted off in - after the current bottom three (none of which they reckon are going to last the weekend) "our lot" will go after Lea, Lisa and Richard, in that order.

i think his exact words were more 'i'm my own man' and he didn't want to look to be just part of a crowd.

was pete there? did he walk out? i thought the two of them got on. pete did ask him earnestly if he knew what he was doing.

Acting like a drama queen (no-one expects to see that on Big Brother), fucking up the food order (after Lisa fucked it up twice) and then retaliating against the group's systematic bullying by moving thier cereal boxes a few metres = TRULY HE IS HISTORY'S GREATEST MONSTER!

― Enrique IX: The Mediator (Enrique), Thursday, 25 May 2006 08:23 (twenty years ago)

Shahbaz was a total minnie but it was painful to watch him being bullied at the end of it. George, for whatever reason, deems himself to be better than that.

Sezer and Imogen are making the classic mistake of fancying their chances, possibly even more than they fancy themselves (but Richard ought to simmer down, this is not the afterparty for Nag Nag Nag). Sezer's a bully, Imo is just a queen bee type biding her time and I don't think I'm ready for that royal jelly.

― suzy (suzy), Thursday, 25 May 2006 08:39 (twenty years ago)

I suspect George has seen that pack mentality plenty of times at school, and probably joined in too - staying neutral is a solid prefectual response.

Bullying is horrible - one of the reasons it's horrible is that you can nearly always see why the victim is being bullied.

BB seem to have fucked up a bit this year, especially with Pete - the man's a saint and national hero after less than a week, at this rate we're watching a 12-week coronation, which is great for Pete but bad for business. But how can they feasibly edit against him? They need to get him out midway via some completely arbitrary game so he can enjoy celebrity and fame and the others can fight it out in squalid fashion.

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 25 May 2006 08:44 (twenty years ago)

― koogy wonderland (koogs), Thursday, 25 May 2006 08:52 (twenty years ago)

i'm watching last night's ep now ... i think the bit in the bedroom at the beginning sums up the whole shahbaz problem. in making a fairly valid point about sezer - "sexist ... penis on legs" - he managed to wake up everybody else, then just go on and on and fucking on until everybody wanted to strangle him.

there's always a pack mentality in the early days of BB: it's entirely natural. tom's right: it's not nice watching what's happening to shahbaz, but MY GOD, you can see why it's happening. and really, seriously, i don't think there's anything "wrong" with him, other than him being a spoiled twat who has stubbornly refused to engage with any process of growing up.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 25 May 2006 09:00 (twenty years ago)

In another place someone pointed out that the Shabaz thing parallels the treatment of trolls on messageboards. Shabaz = Geir!

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 25 May 2006 09:03 (twenty years ago)

agree with Tom re Pete. i envisage him somehow being evicted halfway thro with the nation screaming 'FIX', a bit like they did with Bubble but hundredfold.

has a book been started for 'Pete to have Christmas #1' yet?

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Thursday, 25 May 2006 09:11 (twenty years ago)

Geir never hid the funk, he just denounced it.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Thursday, 25 May 2006 09:12 (twenty years ago)

the problem is - like i think ailsa said upthread - that now shahbaz has gone, there's no focal point for the twattishness any more. so i'm looking at them all thinking, hang on, you're all twats. this is probably vastly unfair, but ... heh, hang on, they've just discovered the suitcase thing. heheheh mwaahahah HOO.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 25 May 2006 09:28 (twenty years ago)

Grimly I think they just have quite selective memories of previous series - they tune in on the games and tasks and big rows and diary room confessionals, and think, yeah, I can do all those. They don't think "Well the no-suitcase thing worked well last time so they'll probably extend it this time, better not go into the house wearing a single pair of swimming trunks eh?"

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 25 May 2006 09:30 (twenty years ago)

They really need to put a full-on contender in there to rival Pete if this is going to stay interesting.

(Not that its necessarily a problem. Everyone knew Brian was going to win BB2 from very early on and the series was still enjoyable).

Before denouncing the Shahbaz mob altogether, it's worth remembering they don't know everything we do. They haven't seen him cracking up in the Diary Room and presumably have no idea he was a suicide concern.

xpost- Glyn appears to be fairly happy despite lack of suitcase, weirdly. Maybe he dresses like that all the time.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 25 May 2006 09:32 (twenty years ago)

we were trying to name the first evictee of every year again from memory last night.

00 Sada
01 Penny
02 Lynn
03 Anouska
04 Justine
05 Mary

is that the right order re names?

05 = Kitten
06= Mary,

Was Kitten actually evicted?

Dawn's one of these people about whom I wonder why they applied. She doesn't seem to be into the me me me fame thing. My best guess is that she wants it use it to get publicity that will help launch her career in some way.

Dawn is Shown the Door
Dawn out
Thursday 25 May
Day 8, 12:25

Dawn has been ordered to leave the House after breaking one of the fundamental rules of Big Brother.

She was called to the Diary Room this morning where Big Brother reminded her of the rules of the Big Brother house, specifically communication with the outside world, and informed her that she would be ejected immediately, and must leave through the Diary Room.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 25 May 2006 11:08 (twenty years ago)

She said a couple of things about "her campaign".

I think it's safe to say that there are doings afoot in the BB house.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 25 May 2006 11:14 (twenty years ago)

C4/Endemol have some serious systems thinking to do. A holistic approach yadda yadda.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Thursday, 25 May 2006 11:27 (twenty years ago)

It's all bollocks now.

The "brotherhood" discussions and show-of-hands about who should join were, in effect "Discussing Nominations Oh Noes Where's Nasty Nick Now?!" As was Sezer's discussion with whatserface about which order they thought people would leave in. Lisa and Lea both threatened Shaz with violence, I think Sezer did as well.

Throwing Dawn out is a fucking sham.

BB made a proper arse of itself by doing this suitcase crap again, but I think the "will never recieve their cases" thing was a mix-up. I think they meant to announce that whoever was being evicted wouldn't see their case until they left but it came across, unintentionally, as "anyone being nominated will never get their cases even if they survive."

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 25 May 2006 11:27 (twenty years ago)

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 25 May 2006 11:28 (twenty years ago)

I think that's exactly what they meant Onimo.

The suitcase thing was ridiculous, yes. Not getting yr suitcase is not in itself a reason to walk, but there's a big difference between not getting it through some arbitrary game (as happened last year) and not getting it because you're one of the two least popular people in the house - at that point you'd be entirely sensible to think, well, I'm not going to win anyway, fuck this.

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 25 May 2006 11:31 (twenty years ago)

The housemates seemed unperturbed when they heard the news of Dawn's rule breaking. Lea quickly brought everyone up to speed about how Dawn had devised a plan with her family and friends: if there was any bad press about Dawn, she would receive a cunning 'your sister is ill' message.

Haha if that's true its pretty fucking stupid on Dawn's part.

They do't pass messages on about anything other than illnesses etc. with family members (US BB *did* do a mawkish 9/11 'moment' but BLECCH please). There are quite a few important news events that were not passed on to the UK house last summer IIRC.

― suzy (suzy), Thursday, 25 May 2006 12:45 (twenty years ago)

OK, it seems this is what happened...

1) Bad Press. (really?)

2) Family send Dawn "sister is ill" message.

3) Big Brother pass it on "in good faith" as per allowed pre-agreement.

4) Dawn mentions to Lea about the message she received and what it really means.

5) Big Brother, having been conned, now are very pissed off.

It still sucks, but less than "you wrote a website in the window, you are off..."

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 25 May 2006 13:35 (twenty years ago)

Bonnie has been whining and moaning and crying about not having her suitcase, so was more than a little keen to take part in Big Brother's game.
She was called to the Diary Room and given her three minutes to list her items. She went for it like a crazy woman. "I want my pink hoodie, it's got a hood on it... and my pink fluffy slippers," she fired out at one hundred miles per hour without taking a breath.
She did exceptionally well, listing off a whole range of things from leopard print pants to the thing with which she scrubs her body.
Bonnie must not discuss the task with Glyn. If she does, it doesn't matter how many items she managed to list, she won't be seeing any of them.

Glyn will be called to the Diary Room later today to play the game himself. Hopefully his lifeguard-short days will finally be over.

Debate raging on the DS forum over Lea, who was saying some rude things last night. http://bigbrother.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds9217.html

Some rabid people on DS are saying she should have her kid taken away, and other horrible things.

While I have no idea how her son feels about her being on Big Brother, it was strange in her intro tape that she said she was not just doing this for herself, but for her son. I don't know what her son could possibly get out of it, other than the money she may make, and more likely than not her being on the show will make both their lives very hard for a while afterwards.

I'm still just reading this thread and watching a few clips, and I haven't managed to form any real opinions about Lea so far. Does she come across as if she has any idea what she is doing, or why she wants this?

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 26 May 2006 04:50 (twenty years ago)

How old is her son? The 'doing this for him' is fine if he's little, and the 'money' keeps till he's older and the 'fame' is less frantic.

Dawn? If she went on to 'raise the profile' of her fitness work/centre, job done and goodnight vienna. Because she was so 'vague' about the message sho got, Lea got very paranoid. If the housemates all get 'insecured' by it, Big Brother had no option but toremove her. The TV show had them saying 'we'll get back to you' so it wasn't as cut and dried as the news stories seemed. Guess we'll see more tomorrow. I did see a very brief bit of Dawn seemingly 'refusing to go' on BBLB (could be wrong about the content), and no appearances on any interview show is a first I believe.

Lisa? "oh don't go we luv yer" .... "Never trusted her from day one" hmmm.

I'd keep away from other boards, official or no. Mentalism is like garlic. A little is nice. Too much and your breath stinks.

Girls: "Aww, the boys are so sweeet"

i lived in loughborough for 3 years (on campus admittedly) and i don't remember the local accent being that pronounced.

I have relatives in LoffBrohh and they talk exactly like that.

George has the laziest voice ever.

I enjoy Russell Brand's schtick a lot, and I make no apologies for it. I also make a point of listening to his Sunday morning show on 6Music.

I watched a bit with a friend who hasn't seen it yet last night, and it made him so depressed that he forced me to change channel. I have to admit he had a point.

Wacky thread titles are dud. I'm going with the purist BB Thread 2 - SEZAR MUST GO! Or maybe die. Or get hit by a meteor. Either one.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Friday, 26 May 2006 10:44 (twenty years ago)

OMG, now they're sitting openly discussing it. "you're so clever," says nikki.

1) nikki cannot be for real. she must be an endemol plant. if not, she needs to be drowned in a bucket for her good and the good of society at large.

2) perhaps dawn didn't have a code. perhaps she just said all that to wind everybody up, and get chucked out. i hope so, because i really don't want to think she's as stupid as she's coming across here.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 26 May 2006 10:44 (twenty years ago)

Scratch that, 'Fail, Sezar' wins.

i'm still at a loss re the whole 'code' thing and bb getting tough and not mentioning her 'cause' and... it's all weird.

Hmmm. Called that one right, didn't I?

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 26 May 2006 10:51 (twenty years ago)

I think "Fail, Sezar" is excellent, but it should wait a couple of weeks until some deadwood (e.g. Glyn) leaves.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 26 May 2006 10:51 (twenty years ago)

Keep thread title clean, some of us are in work reading this...

My vote for 'Fail, Sezar'

― Kv_nol (Kv_nol), Friday, 26 May 2006 10:52 (twenty years ago)

Oh, yeah, Onimo doesn't win at all. in that case. Made me laugh anyway.

"Fail, Sezar" is good too. I'm sure there are also many other Sezer jokes we could continue with past that until the GBP gets shot of him.

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 26 May 2006 10:54 (twenty years ago)

As Dawn was on the phone at the time, I had the subtitles on, which was interesting...

One thing I'm not really liking about BB so far, why is everyone feeling pressured to pair up? George is now down in the dumps because he can't 'connect' with Nikki. So fucking what? She's a shit, just get on with it.

the one thing which turned me against Nikki was when they were stealing Shahbaz's clothes when he was in the pool, Nikki's horrible little comment "hide the clothes, that'll hurt him even more". Her horrible way of screaming when BB isn't going her way and then everythings great now she's a member of the BBhood.

to be fair i didn't know George had said those things and yeah i do think that's kinda shitty. One good point that i noticed was when they all left the room when Shahbaz entered and he stayed saying that he didn't need other people to tell him what to do.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 26 May 2006 12:30 (twenty years ago)

"top spec bitch" seriously pissed me off, as did his knowing little nod as he said it.

Reminded me of The 40 Year Old Virgin, when he's trying to let on he's had sex before.

Then she was in the bedroom throwing a fit about her sleeve reeking of BO and pinning the blame on Pete, because he'd put his arm around her. She made the other girls have a sniff and they declared they couldn't smell anything and said she seemed to have a bit of an "issue with scent".
