As promised, a repost of my summary of the fifth series:
Part 1 of 3:
LAUNCH: From Friends to Enemies
The 12 HMs enter live after the last ever episode of Friends. C4
plugged BB with lines such as "From Friends to Enemies" and started
off by sending in homosexual Marco, who can't stand Asylum Seekers,
followed by homophobic asylum seeker Ahmed. Next is Jason, wearing
just a thong, followed by gay hairdresser Dan - who claims straight
men fall for him. "The most intelligent housemate ever" Stuart is
followed by bad boy Victor.
The girls arrive and it's blonde bombshell Vanessa, bisexual (and not
to bright) Emma and then Kitten - who gets booed on the way in when
she jumps onto the stage to find her girlfriend and gives V signs to
the press and crowd. Wanabee glamour model Michelle is followed by
nice girl Shell - and finally the housemates with the biggest secret -
Nadia.
Every year the press suggest a transexual will enter the house -
every year they are wrong - until now. Nadia is a post-op transexual
from Portugal who is entering the house to find acceptance as a woman.
A few twists are revealed - an alarm call to wake housemates every
morning - one dorm with ten beds - and only 12 housemates - with
every evictee taking their bed with them. And finally the biggest
twist - the winner could get nothing. The prize fund begins at
£100,000 (tax free). Every Saturday housemates face a task to hold on
to the prize fund - with upto £10,000 wiped off if they fail.
WEEK 1: Hell's Kitten
Kitten got booed in and broke rules from the start - refusing to go
to the diary room, breaking furniture and climbing on the roof. She
also failed to participate in the first task - a vote to determine
who wouldn't get their suitcase for the entire stay in the house -
and therefore had to live off others belongings. Within four days she
had two strikes, with BB then issuing an ultimatem that if Kitten got
a third strike, BB would evict any Housemate of their discretion. A
plate painting task led to Kitten painting on the mirrors - her third
strike - and eventually her eviction. But she refused to leave, so
Big Brother began docking the prize fund for every second she was in
the house at the rate of £10,000 a minute. When she left it stood at
£91,000.
WEEK 2: The housemates nominated for eviction this week are...
Saturday and the HMs get a childrens party complete with sickly food.
Then a couple of hours later, they get their first Saturday
Challenge. One HM must answer questions in the diary room while
another spins the remaining HMs on a roundabout in the garden. Each
correct answer means one HM can leave the roundabout - each incorrect
answer means £1000 is removed from the prize fund. Stu answers 5
correctly, meaning the prize fund drops to £86,000.
Ahmed, Emma and Michelle are nominated for eviction - but are they.
On Friday night Davina crosses to the house and reveals that tonight
there will be a double eviction. Later she tells Emma and Michelle to
leave - but after leaving the main house and approaching the exit
doors, they are escorted to a secret Big Brother Bedsit - where they
will work for BB, watch live feeds of the other housemates, before
returning to the HMs.
WEEK 3: Security...
During her two weeks in the house Michelle and Stu had fallen for
each other and taken their relationship to a level not seen before in
the house. Michelle watching Stu on screen in the bedsit was classic -
"No Naked Jacuzziness". They also saw a second relationship blossom
between Jungle Cat Jason and Vanessa.
However, it was the Jungle Cat's (Jason, Victor, Ahmed) disccussions
about Marco's Harem (Marco, Emma, Michelle, Nadia) that irritated the
bedsit duo - with Jason and Victor constantly bitching. They got
revenge by giving Victor cold showers and egging Jason's bed. They
also got to make a chilli cake for the HMs.
On Day 20 they returned - hidden under serving domes on the table.
Then it kicked off. Marco had the nerve to sing infront of Jason
which escalated into a full blown fight between Emma and Victor.
Nadia and Vanessa also attacked each other, while Shell collapses in
fright. BB sent in security, seperated the housemates into different
rooms. The six involved got formal warnings and Emma was sent to the
bedsit and later removed. But the classic shot of the series - the
camera zoomed passed the housemates, taking the security guard in the
shot then zooming in on the writing on the wall - "No More War".
