Celebrity Big Brother 2006 - Thread Two - We all stand together?

"You are competitive aren't you? As a race."

Just an awkward silence every time. :)

I can forgive everyone everything, in the house, including a lot of stupid/annoying things but I cannot forgive bmore anything at all

him going on and on and on and on and on about what cigars GG had given him when GG said he didn't want to discuss it (as it might make people think there'd been some unfair favouritism etc)

wotta dick, as cozen might say

Which, of course, he is. He's always been an accident waiting to happen, and he's set himself up for this totally. If you want public rehabilitation, you do NOT do it by putting yourself in a goldfish bowl where your every action can be scrutinised and people are waiting for you to fail.

we're still not sure whether it was a joke or not

no wonder he's a mess

Aye, fucker never answered my fix it letters.

I love all these "my friend's a journalist and he says they daren't print x" stories. The first one I heard involved the Oldham Chronicle and photos of Fergie giving a drug dealer a blowjob.

I think we're OK on the legal front. For a start, we've spelt his surname wrong.

Anyhow, one more housemate to go on Wednesday.

(If they do this next wednesday as well, then that would be Burns night. Hmmm)

Rula has Pants of Power, so she's either un-nominatable, or it will be her nominations that count only.

Pete won't vote for Rula, George, Preston or Chantelle. He probably won't vote Barrymore. Leaving Faria, Traci and Dennis.

Preston, same list as Pete for won't vote for, subst. Pete for himself.

etc.etc. Looks like a Traci vs Dennis wednesday, unless it's Rula's vote only, in which case it will be Pete vs George, I reckon.

That was my reckon, tell me yours...

I wish they had the sense to vote Barrymore out, all he does is cry and slur. He isn't remotely entertaining, just pathetic. Nobody really seems to be paying him any attention anymore, maybe they will vote him out.

I really dislike George and Pete, they're not happy unless they're bitching/making things up about other housemates, on the highlights show last night they were trying to say Dennis and Tracey were polarising themselves, which I have seen no evidence of.

Ideally I'd like to see George go.

Barrymore was very "oh the americans wanted to compete" whereas Dennis was actually the first one to say "fuck this shit" and Traci didn't immediately jump to George's idea, had to think about it first which was fair enough.

Preston's reaction was also fair enough. Big Brother: "Coffe/Juice and croissants are served " Preston:"Bollocks to that then!"

Box task in CBB, er - they get a treat which is unspecified and they already have plenty of food, booze, and fags so a prize which can't be shared would be rubbish.

George's plan would not have worked in proper Big Brother.

Pete and George in the shower!!!

Popbitch once ran a story that in the dim and distant past, Larry Grayson liked to spread rumours about a mysterious and unnamed now-elderly celebrity *cough* *cough* who does lots of fund-raising charity work for hospitals - the reason being, he was a necrophiliac, and when hanging around the hospitals he was fundraising for, would slip a few quid to the morgue attendants to let him in whilst it was quiet.

GG is being clever, manipulative and disingenuous, but not as clever as he thinks he is. Did he really think gossiping with Pete in the loo without mikes would not get picked up on and broadcast? His unwarranted disclosure about Rula was either a colossal betrayal of confidence or malicious speculation. He will play his position of power over the nicotine addicts to his advantage. It is difficult to think his decision to do BB – never mind his cat impression – will enhance his career. Still Barrymore came a complete cropper with him last night over cigar-gate, ending up looking selfish, self-pitying and fundamentally dishonest.

I fear GG, MB and PB will find another vulnerable female to gang up on and bully to paper over their own differences. Everyone is protective of Chantelle, so I suspect Traci might be the next victim. The *dumb American* slur keeps getting raised. I hope she copes, I fear for her.

A personal highlight was the otherwise invisible Maggot and his 2.00am confused, sleep-deprived rant on not getting any rest - ‘it’s chaos in that bedroom what with the snoring and farting, if it’s not that Barrymore bloke it’s that American football player’ + being utterly clueless as to who most of his fellow HM’s actually are (only shown on the ‘Diary Room Uncut’).

wotta dick

He ain't wrong. He HAS to be finished after this, hasn't he?

Sorry. As you were...

On whether he had learned anything about himself: "I thought I could get on with almost anybody, Tony Blair excepted, but I certainly couldn't. I thought I could bring people together in a common cause and I failed. I thought I could live without the news and I couldn't. I also learnt some personal things that I won't talk about here."

He sounds like he'll be dead by 8am.

How did Galloway know there would be another eviction?

This is either the coolest or the dullest interview ever, I haven't yet decided.

So it's a free-for-all for Friday between Michael, Maggot, Traci, Preston, Chantelle and George? How long is the show going to be with five evictions plus crowning of winner?

I laughed at Barrymore's USA speech when he ended with '..and maybe then we could understand what Dennis is saying!' And I laughed at Chantelle accidentally trouncing Pete in the debate.

What was the thing with her talking at Pete through the glass?

Should be interesting to see how Pete deals with it now his two fellow evildoers have gone.

Preston's going to win this isn't he? I want either Barrymore or Chantelle to win but not madly concerned. Just as long as Pete doesn't.

apparently, gg's "what kind of men are they?" comment was said, turning to pete, crouching nearby, haha

"Haha, McCririck has just described Galloway's stance on exit as similar to that of Nicolai Ceaucescu".

Is the funniest thing I've read on the internets for a while.

So yeah, every year I lurk on this website for BB commentary and it never lets me down.

And why SHOULD a non-celebrity win? That's what they have normal big brother for.

Oh, and no-one has seemingly cottoned on to George's "well, that's my last election anyway" comment. I'm sure he wasn't only meaning Big Brother there.

gg into cbblb, this morning, to the tune of "the lovecats" by the cure and then a clip sequence to the tune of edwin starr's "war" and t jones' "what's new pussycat?"

let away w/ the same selfdelusion as before re: his defence the attacked, etc, etc

moved his goalposts, slightly, though, saying "if I half-impressed 10% of the people watching" Vs. last night's "if I half-impressed half of the people watching"

dennis just boring and not realising what the question is that's been asked again ("after the dance task and now that you're out of the house, will you be taking dancing lessons?" reply: "you ain't ever gonna get me back in the house" and something about mopping the floors). also, a v peculiar moment when dermo asked denni if he would like to come and play for the milton keynes bball team, afterall, and denni sez "I don't know...it depends if I COME". dermo: "??" denni: "...sorry ...sorry". v strange

crosspost x3

When they played the re-run of the Diary Room bits instead, Chantelle made me laugh when she was asked by Big Brother which of the housemates were arguing. She reeled off the list of all the names ... "Dennis, Traci, Pete, George, Michael -- not 'George Michael', obviously -- I mean Michael and George". She was quite cute in her ditziness.

I wonder what GG meant by "I also learnt some personal things that I won't talk about here". Has PB been giving him some make-up tips? New wanking techniques? I am consumed by curiosity.

Chantelle 1/4
Preston 5/1
Barrymore 8/1
Maggot 12/1
Pete 33/1
Traci 50/1

Here's the latest 'finger in the air' survey...

galloway has frequently said he won't stand for re-election as an MP. this is nothing new.

of course, nobody believes a word he says anyway, so ...

Preston: "I don't want to leave and face up to anything I've done in here."

Chantelle: "What? Face up to what?"

Preston: "Erm, you know, Nothing bad, Nothing good, just things, you know."

Chantelle: "Face up to what?"

Preston: "Like wearing a leotard and stuff,"

Chantelle: "Oh, right."
