Big Brother 2007 (UK) Thread 3: In the future, we will all be on Big Brother for 15 minutes each!

the clouds have lifted

so chanelle has actually walked then

haha The Long Goodbye

I bet she doesn't actually go at the end of all this.

Ziggy is always kind of amusing in these situations because he is painfully, acutely aware of how much of a cunt he's making himself look on national TV and yet is powerless to stop himself from doing so again and again and again.

why was carole being so dickish to chanelle btw? not saying it wasn't justified - i don't know - but it did seem to be of a piece with all of carole's previous "look, i'm just giving up on you/this"

She's still in the house on the live feed, talking about how she'll "just stay tonight, then see".

"this is my last ever post to ILX"

Next year they should institute a rule that the first time you go in the Diary Room and say "I want to leave" the door opens and they hoy you out there and then.

cathy told me chanelle had gone!! I was so disappointed

chanelle saying she wants to leave is much more understandable/excusable than ziggy doing it. and he has done is approx nine times

she would only be leaving because of ziggy complete lack of maturity/communication skills regarding his emotions and just cos he's a tosser like. I can't stand him! and liam massaging his ego all the time! they both think they are "good people" and "sound blokes", no doubt, but they are really bad. really really bad. she'd also be leaving because of carole's totally bizarre behaviour. like she did w/ nicky--cutting her off. a bit more understandable in the case of nicky since they had had a few proper clashes and nicky had been muttering about her, etc. carole's supposed to be caring but she just decides who she's going to like or protect (ziggy???? despite their numerous clashes. and charlie, because she said she liked her, in the fake eviction, but who still treats her like crap re: tidying up/cleaning, etc) and then ostracises everyone else. she's bad, too

I hope chanelle stays. I want her to have a proper eviction, at the very least

ziggy without chanelle in the house would be much less of a thing to see/enjoy than chanelle without ziggy

She has not gone, has she?

A bunch of cunts called C4 to complain that Zigguh was giving cunts a bad name.

no she's not gone

The BBC are still "waiting" on her decision...

.. and now she has!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6921397.stm

Heh, that's the same URL the BBC used yesterday when she "left", then again when she didn't.

Tracy's reading an announcement out to the house, it looks real this time.

Not that the housemates are bothering to get out of bed/stop sunbathing to come and listen to it, she's read it out about 3 times in different bits of the house.

ziggy the dick

well the number of housemates leaving this year really proves that BB needs to be canned now. not even the HMs can be arsed to stay in there.

it should really be zigggy leaving though - not chanelle. cant believe she thought HE deserves to be in there more. she clearly likes him too much, poor girl. i wonder what her view of him wil be when she sees some tapes.

Kara and David are going in to the main house.

Seems fair enough.

Wasn't two existing hm's supposed to be going?

Well they're not in yet, you never know, someone else might walk before then.

The other three are still there, Ziggy's living with them now and has to choose another housemate to go in with him tomorrow. After watching BBLB it doesn't look like they've decided where any of this is going yet.

God, Big Brother didn't half drag that out!

scene outside the diary room...

Jesus, anyone would think she was dying.

I've been on holidays for the last two weeks, and this is my first BB back. I miss Charley. She would have swept Chanelle out the door and pushed the door closed after her.

Dear god! What's that?

After watching BBLB it doesn't look like they've decided where any of this is going yet

bblb is just the show about the show

My guess is that the five halfways, and the two housemates (Ziggy plus one), get put up to the public vote and the top two get to go (back) in.

The public, having a sense of moral outrage, will vote ziggy out, and as they are sadistic basts, will vote Jonty as well. (Along with whoever also is in from the main house)

Jonty is awful! In fact, all of the halfway people are awful. Especially the tubby one who was lapdancing Brian and Liam. Do people really pay her for that? She is NOT attractive.

That dance was a pure "That'll get them voting for me" moment of wrongness.

It was awful! I felt a bit let down by her, too, because I was very proud of her for just whipping off her top when getting changed, like you just would, without any of that showering-in-your-cossie coyness that slightly annoys me about the British show (unless they're told to? Hmm, I never thought of that. Could be a watershed thing), but then she spoiled it with her strange wiggling.

Kara-Louise seems alright, but then again she hasn't really done much other than smile at people and be posh.

New Big Brother housemates picked

David works in Ayr while Kara-Louise is a student from Harrow
Contestants on reality series Big Brother have chosen two new housemates from the five people who entered a so-called "halfway house" on Friday.
Student Kara-Louise Horne, 22, and store manager David Parnaby, 25, are now eligible for the £100,000 prize.

But participants also had to pick one person who would swap the main living area for the "halfway house".

And Ziggy Lichman - who saw on-off girlfriend Chanelle Hayes quit the show on Monday - then put himself forward.

"I wouldn't mind a bit of time, I'll do it," said the 26-year-old former pop singer and model. "Seriously, it can't get madder than this."

Later he told Big Brother in the diary room that he had had a bad day because of the departure of Chanelle, whom he described as "someone who I will miss a lot".

Ziggy and Chanelle exchanged insults during a row before she quit
Before she left the programme, Chanelle, 19, had explained how she felt she could no longer live in the same house as Ziggy.

"He probably deserves to be here more than I do," said the student, who wants to be a professional Victoria Beckham lookalike.

Ziggy now faces a battle against the three other contestants in the "halfway house", all of whom must compete against each other to try to stay on the programme.

He joins Jonty Stern, a 36-year-old who works in a museum; glamour model Amy Alexandra, 21; and Shanessa Reilly, a part-time care assistant who is 27.

Ah, it's the old style playoffs, innit?

Sounds like a straight swap, Jonty for Ziggy.

I think everyone still in the halfway house is going on Friday, plus one other.

Why? Why would they need to stay in the 1/2 house then?

Now Liam's in the half way house and Shanessa's in the main one.

Who's Sarah?

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2003230001-2007320210,00.html ?

In February, he was reportedly dating Sarah Bosnich, 34, the ex-wife of former footballer Mark Bosnich.

Thanks V.

I lost all sympathy for Ziggy when he did that thing of trying to shout her down, then realising he couldn't, because she was louder and shriller than her, he tried to tell her to lower her voice and calm down. A tactic guaranteed to make me want to punch a bloke right in his stupid gob.

Big Brother's Big Mouth:

Charley and Chanelle sat next to each other, while the audience debate them both, right in front of them.

oh, and they've just told Chanelle who Sarah is.

i never thought i'd say it but this is shit now that chanelle and charley are gone

and tracey still in!!

boo

Oh, I thought you'd say it!

do you know charley?

Before she was yer man's cousin no less?

I am finding the diaries of Chanelle and Charley strangely rivetting.

Chanelle:

Then I went to a well-known store and I got loads of free clothes! Loads of free clothes that would have cost loads, for free! So that's good in't it?

Charley:

Tuesday

This morning I woke up cos I had to go and do a thing on a radio station -- so I went there and I spoke to I think it was like, 37 or something radio stations. It was meant to be 57 or a bit more but I only done those and stuff and then I left there with someone who works for my agent.

We went shopping in Bromley, me and my sister and my mum. It was too wild, you couldn't move, babe. People were coming up to me and literally crying 'Charley we love you so much and we're never gonna watch the show anymore' -- just so you heard that, I'm only joking, but no, they did. 'We not gonna watch the show no more blah, blah, blah' and stuff like that and you just couldn't move.

I went back home, tried on a few outfits and we had savaloy and chips, which was quite nice.

Oi oi saveloy!

P.S Is a saveloy just a smoked sausage with a fancy name??

keane are better than queen, at least

Lies

Colonel Poo OTM!

Oh right, fair enough

They did the "movie" last night.

The 'dress up and imitate former housemates' task is always classic but the film worked less well than the play last year I reckon.

If you forget Charley, this is the tweest, touchy-feeliest BB since the first couple, isn't it?

It reminds me of the one Cameron won, the last couple of weeks of which featured Steph hoovering and... erm... Scott falling asleep. In fact, wasn't that a total love-fest pretty much after Fed went?

Brian was good value as Charley in the film, I thought. Liam was pretty badly edited last night, every shot he was in seemed to feature him brooding and staring at other people apart from wrestling Carole to the ground and dunking one of Samanda in the ice bowl.

We've really stopped caring about this, haven't we?

Anyway, I predict:

6th - Carole
5th - Liam
4th - Ziggy
3rd - Jonty (the only big surprise of the night)
2nd - Brian
1st - Samanda

Sadly, I have a feeling Carole may still be more popular than she should be.

I vote thuswise:

6th: Jonty
5th: Carole
4th: Liam
3rd: Brian
2nd: Ziggy
1st: Samanda

Nah I don't think Ziggy will beat Brian and Liam.

A bookie is paying out on Samanda already.

There is no way they won't win. I'm not even sure I can be bothered to watch it.

6th: Carole
5th: Jonty
4th: Ziggy
3rd: Liam
2nd: Samanda
1st: Brian

This is kind of wishful thinking, I think the twins will probably win. Liam might well do better than people are predicting due to NE bloc vote plus girls fancying him.

Liam was pretty badly edited last night, every shot he was in seemed to feature him brooding and staring at other people

This was the shot from behind, right? Where he wasn't actually brooding at all, because if you looked at it from the other direction he was sitting on the smoking bench in the way he always does?

I suppose you're probably right. I have lost interest so much I've failed to notice.

Does this finish tonight then? I might tune in.

6th: Carole
5th: Ziggy
4th: Liam
3rd: Brian
2nd: Jonty
1st: Samanda

you never know...

Even the end of this series is boring

Prediction:

1 Twins
2 Brian
3 Ziggy (even I'm warming to him now)
4 Liam
5 Carole
6 Jonty

Want:

1 Twins
2 Jonty
3 Brian
4 Liam
5 Ziggy (but he's still a blokey twat)
6 Carole

I'm still wondering how that guy Jay finished second in whatever BB it was he was in

Your want is my prediction! (xpost)

I think this series has actually been worse than the Cameron series

http://vote.sparklit.com/poll.spark/1052579

So, this is the actual "on the day" victory poll. Not to be confused with the actual voting. Click here for a surprise. or not.

Oh, and touring auditions for next year begin in November. So, what I said in post one could happen!

Man, Sam really ate all the pies while she was in the house, didn't she? Everyone else looks much the same.

poor old sam

ziggy's cunting microphone technique oh what a cunt

Well, that was a turn-up for the books.

oops, I am watching an hour behind

I'm quite surprised.

Not by you. By the result.

Oh my god, he's like something from Pipkins sometimes. In a good way.

Twins interview JUST NOISE.

Brian wants it so much, bless him.

so glad the twins didn't win

Aw bless, look at him crying looking at himself.

resolved myself, in the last seconds, that brian could win it

good that a big big brother fan won it I guess

oh well!!!!!!

I hate Brian. What a cunt.

This is the first time my favourite housemate has actually won. Damn, if only I'd got Carole and Jonty the right way round I would be cleaning up right now.

DavidM will be just as bad next year too is my prediction

Ah well,see youse next year.

Oh,Amber fully intends to do Big Brother 18, you have been warned!

Brian Belo (1409) 29%
Carole Vincent (156) 3%
Jonty Stern (217) 4%
Liam McGough (444) 9%
Sam & Amanda Marchant (1962) 40%
Zach 'Ziggy' Lichman (729) 15%

Sam and Amanda Marchant?

?

brian was quite funny when excited (which was often) during bblb on sunday.

gerry and charlie and satnav were complete camera whores during the final goodbye. no real surprise there.

there was no spooky final shot of the house with lights going off and spooky echo, which was disappointing. what should they have used this year? there's a new music sweeping the world and it's called indie?

yeah really missed the spooky end shots and voices!! disappointing

So who *wasn't* on the 'reunion' shows?

Emily, Jonathan, who else?

Emily, Jonathan

no talk of Ziggy's bewildering "trigger nigga" comment?

??

news of the world had a piece on sunday about ziggy's racist cover-up wherein bb allegedly didn't broadcast either the comment - "cheers, you're my trigger nigga" or somesuch - or the aftermath in which ziggy was up all night in the diary room apologising. it wasn't directed to/at brian, but he was "nearby" (WELL OF COURSE HE BLOODY WAS, THEY'RE ALL IN THE SAME HOUSE).

Big Brother producers reprimanded Ziggy Lichman for using a racially offensive word on Thursday night.

The former boyband star was drinking in the garden with his fellow housemates, when he said "trigger n*****" - a reference to a lyric by rapper 50 Cent.

Ziggy was called into the Diary Room and warned that he would be booted out of the house if he broke the rules again.

He then apologised to black housemate Brian Belo, who was present when he used the word. Brian told Ziggy not to worry, explaining: "We've lived with each other for 11 weeks and I know you're not like that."

A spokesman told the Sunday Mirror: "Channel 4 acted swiftly and appropriately to tell Ziggy that racially offensive language would not be tolerated under any circumstances. Ziggy was told that any further transgression would mean his immediate eviction.

"We gave careful consideration to the context of Ziggy's offence. Ziggy was repeating a lyric from a song and his words were not directed at anyone. Nobody in the house was offended and the incident was not broadcast, so no offence was caused to viewers."

Ziggy confirmed: "I apologised to Big Brother. It was purely lyrics from a song. It was never my intention to cause offence to anybody."
