Day 75 Uplate

Another night, and hopefully, another one where some housemates are still awake. Into the action now straight away. Bedroom is where we meet them, Dan, Anouska and Chrissie talking. Pat looks asleep, Reggie is in bed just being quiet. Mike comes on, tells us all the usual stuff, as well as telling us he’ll be speaking to Shannon tonight at some stage, before letting us come back to the house. “This is BB: Anouska, stop playing with your microphone!” I think that woke Pat up and he is not happy. The lights suddenly go out, and everyone settles down into bed. She also knocked pretty hard on the walls, so I dunno. Maybe that woke him up. Anouska settles down with her book for another night – so much fun this is going to be! Chrissie is also reading, Dan just lying back with his eyes shut trying to get to sleep. Overnight brain teaser flashes onto the screen. Silence then for another couple of minutes! And a few more minutes, which turns into a damn long time. I reckon ten minutes have passed since we last saw Mike. Finally he is back, talking about the book club again.

He has Anouska’s agent, Amanda on the line. She is well. They are talking about the stir Anouska has made back home. She agent won’t comment on whether it is good publicity. Anouska’s boyfriend seems to have taken the news well, after the agent told him it’s not as bad as it seems. Turning to Anouska’s pregency, she doesn’t think she really is pregnent. She says Anouska could do pregnent photo’s anyway! Anouska will do Rove on Tuesday, then go back to the UK for some BBUK committments, as well as BB Newspapers wantingto talk to her. She manages Justine from UKBB4, and Lee and someone from UKBB3. Ah I remember Lee, he was funny! They talk about the tension in the house after the interviews the housemates did with Anouska. Then Mike lets her go, and says they will see her on Sunday night when Anouska comes out. Overnight game is closed for tonight. Caller will be on after the break, but before that happens, they return to the house!

Moyra has rung through from SA for the brainteaser. LOL. She isn’t speaking much. They are doing this before the comm break actually. She answers correctly, and didn’t even realise she was winning the $1000. Too easy, she’s happy at least :) Very quick phone call, she is gone already, and we are back to the house. Both girls up this end (Chrissie’s corner) are still reading. Finally, we get a comm break.

First new brain teaser of the night now appears on the screen.But back to the house now, while they get Shannon on the line. Into the bedroom of course we venture, Chrissie having called it a night, which leaves Anouska again the last one reading. Now she has given up. Everyone is now with the light out, trying to get some sleep. A few minutes, Mike comes back with Shannon. She is pretty well, staying up especially for him. She says he has a hard job. She is working hard at the moment, doing classes and all that, she is getting ready to go to NZ in two weeks. She is auditioning for some show on the weekend – top secret. She is going to come up to Brisbane as soon as she can, to shut Mike up! She calls Anouska the mole, which is exactly what she is. She can’t believe people still have books to read. Mike ends the convo, and cuts quickly to a comm break.

Brain teaser time, Mike goes through the teaser, this time giving the clue. He tells us there is ony one week to go – then tells us that we will cross back to the house to check on the ‘kids.’ All lights are still off, and everyone seems to have drifted off to sleep. Silence for what seems like forever now. Mike comes back on and sings a jingle. He reads out the eviction numbers. He goes on to tell us that there will be a eviction show on the Monday to decide the winner. I’ve only just realised that I will be able to watch it live. I normally work afternoon-nights, but will be working during the day that week. Excellent timing I reckon! Brain teaser game is over. Mike reminds us that favourites have never really won before, so he reminds us all to vote for our fave. Now, time for a comm break.

Mike is back with Max from Gosford on the line. He is the Weet-Bix man, he buys all the ingredients for the company to make them – he never eats them though. Me either! He wins the money. He tells whoever in the background that they won. Lyn is on the phone now, the wife. She says she is going to spend it all. BB is religion in their house. Second brain teaser for the night gets underway. Lyn reckons Dan will win BB. Pick the camera game now. 7 is the round house living room. He focuses in on Wilson the chook. Mike forgot it’s name. 15 is a shot over the pool of the kitchen. Lyn likes the house. Max is back on the phone now. They have five kids. Max thinks Pat might go this week – but then again he also thinks Reggie. This guy has totally lost credibility. Finally end the call. Comm break.

Mike is back again, and is running through the teaser, then we cross to the house while Mike still talks to use. He is going through the housemates sleeping positions. Exciting! Anouska and Dan are sleeping facing each other, so Mike reckons they are in love. They jump onto FatBobby.com, Ben’s new website. It’s basically giving Ben some dirt (ie my next door neighbour stole my lawnmower) and he will try to dig up some dirt, and try to get it back for you. Oh dear, what a stupid site. Get something else up there! Back to the official site we go now. The audience member is Si tonight, must be a producer or something, because I remember the name. Mike mentioned it somewhere before. She is shy, and won’t come on the camera. Mike says she is hot :P Now they are onto trying to flog off the logo’s for the mobile phones. They hold up Mike’s phone very close to the screen, and all of a sudden Shane rings through. He hangs up when Mike picks it up though, so Mike throws the phone away, trying to throw it on his bag, but misses, so hope it’s ok! Anyway, Mike says Si could do Dicky-Knee type comments and pop up in the corner of the screen. She declines the offer. Comm break.

Mike comes back and says that two housemates have just had sex in the diary room. If only! Back to the trivia teaser thing. He gives a clue this time round. He says people from SA, WA and the ACT shouldn’t ring yet, because they have one at the end, and bouncing into song, sings “Especially for you.” It’s a very slow night tonight for poor Mike. Back to the house – no one is snoring at least. The brainteaser pops up on the bottom right of the screen. Mike is back now. Anouska told her housemates today that she was leaving come Sunday. No more calls! Comm break.

Some bloke from Brisbane is on the phone, but he dropped out, and it was so exciting. The highlight of the night is some guy not saying hello for a minute, and Mike left hanging on. Anyway, he is back.He is from India. Mike loves the accent. He is about to answer the question and says he doesn’t know it! LOL. Oh no, he does now. He wins the money. End of the convo, and after Mike talks for a minute, we are transported back to BB land. Nothing happens for a good 7-10 minutes, before comm break intervenes.

And for the last time tonight, Mike is back on. Si has made her way to the camera, she looks cool! She is a producer of the show. Anyway, the overnighters game is underway now. No idea what it is, even with the clue. Ah yes, it’s Hipster. Phone number is 1902555610, open all over Australia for anyone interested. He goes through a few forum messages now. Mike says goodnight, as we head back to the house one last time. Camera is on Anouska i think, but it looks like she has a pillow over her face. She does! She is hugging the pillow. At 1:45am, Dreamworld says goodnight.

Keep Looking for Warren,
Dave

Day 75

10:17am – Anouska walks out to breakfast wearing high heels. The other housemates query her and she says she doesn’t like walking around with nothing on her feet. She asks if they want coffee. Patrick also requests toast with Vegemite, and Anouska seems to know what that is. Chrissie says “well done”. Patrick adds “Reggie will tell you how much”. After she goes into the kitchen, Daniel says “don’t say that to an english person because they wont’ know how much to put on”. In the kitchen Anouska seems to be putting A LOT of vegemite on a piece of toast, and when she leaves with it Regina giggles to herself.

When the toast reaches Chrissie and Patrick, they say “oh ow”. Anouska asks if she’s put too much on – “a little bit”. Anouska giggles and Patrick goes to scrape some off. Patrick shows Regina how much Vegemite is on the toast, and she burst out laughing. There is deliberation on how to fix the toast: Regina says just start again. Patrick shows Anouska how much is correct and Anouska jokes “ungrateful bastard!”.

Patrick: Do you want a taste?

Anouska: I’d rather peel my own skin and eat it.

Anouska is interviewing Chrissie, using a spatula as a microphone. She is asking about Vincent and they play fight about answers. Anouska says Chrissie didn’t like Vincent scandalously. When the taping is finished Chrissie doesn’t seem all that impressed. Daniel and Chrissie suggest they do another tape that punchy and not so drawn out. Chrissie has second thoughts because this style is not really her way of talking. They retape it with a silly script.

4:20pm – Chrissie has worked out the cause of Anouska’s pregnancy theories: When travelling from the UK she lost a few days due to time differences and thus misjudged her menstrual calendar cycle. Chrissie and Dan go on to discuss Anouska: they feel sometimes she thinks people are laughing at her rather than with her. They also think she puts herself down too much – although she is quick to put down other people like when Regina gets words wrong. They agree it’s a fine line Anouska must walk o.

In the kitchen Anouska and Patrick discuss the task. She says Reggie was the most honest. Outside Regina is watching them and comments she likes watching people in the kitchen. Patrick says the producers were probably disappointed there were not so many clashes in the house. On a similar topic outside Daniel and Regina agree everyone in the house is nice and trustworthy. Regina says she doesn’t think any of the previous evictees would say anything nasty about them. Daniel is unsure.

5:59pm – Chrissie has joined the outside group and they talk there is only 3 sleeps until the next eviction. Regina is excited and has butterflies. Big Brother calls all housemates to the round deck, which is where the outside group is already. There is a general feeling of confusion. Big Brother announces the results are in for the task. They have wagered 75%. They have passed the task and have $91 to spend on next week’s shopping. Patrick tells Chrissie to enjoy the food next week. Regina says it would have been hilarious if they failed and only had $13 to spend. Once Anouska leaves Chrissie says she should stay until the end – she can’t just leave now when she’s just found out things about the other housemates.

Anouska and Patrick continue with dinner, rolling out spaghetti. Anouska says that Patrick is a control freak, and he agrees. She gets excited about rolling out some spaghetti properly, and goes to show the other housemates, screaming. The others laugh about how long it is, but their attention quickly turns to a bug that crashed into the kitchen window, and Anouska gets annoyed. Daniel picks up the bug and takes it over Anouska, who freaks out and tries to hide behind Chrissie. Chrissie scares her more by saying “oh look its so terrible it has long sticky legs, it’s in attack mode”. Anouska gets upset and tells Daniel to fuck off. Regina comforts her out on the round deck. Daniel comes out and lets the bug fly off. Anouska screams in terror and starts crying again. The others are amazed Anouska is so terrified of a single bug.

7:01pm – Anouska is skipping while Daniel shows her his makeshift vege garden. She says that she likes Daniel but as revenge for the bug incident when he wakes up tomorrow morning all his baby corn will be gone. Daniel says they can do that – they can fuck with each other until one of them leaves. He continues with the joke, talking tactics and battle of the sexes. Anouska giggles until Daniel mentions putting insects in her bed, and she asks if he’d really do that. He says not at first, but maybe a little later.

Anouska: These jeans are so unflattering!

Daniel: Thats alright because everyones looking at your tits anyway

10:05pm – Dan questions Reg on her eviction predictions, but there is no clear answer. Dan indirectly predicts Chrissie. Meanwhile Chrissie is telling Patrick she’s really looking forward to going for a long walk when she gets out of the house… a walk not in circles. Patrick is looking forward to sleeping in a room by himself and waking up when he wants to. Chrissie says “because I’ll be at your eviction” after that she can’t wait to… Patrick says she will be waving goodbye to him from inside the house. Chrissie continues, she can’t wait to hang out with other housemates outside the house. She’s never known them other than the environment of the house.

Outside Reg and Dan express their excitement at the upcoming finale. Regina can’t wait to see everyone. Dan compares it to a birthday party when everyone you know is there at the same time.

11:20pm – Anouska has spied a bug in the bedroom. She starts screaming and gets under her sheets. She instructs Daniel to get a pillow and hit it. He scares her by saying it’s coming towards her, she screams and hides under her covers. He shows her the smeared evidence of the dead bug.

Chrissie: That is disgusting.

Day 74 Uplate

We join the gang in the bdroom, everyone in there. Dan is doing his stretches, Anouska is walking around doing something with her toes, before Reggie asked if Anouska did any dancing when she was young. Anouska says she did some ballet when she was small, but got bored, so gave it up.

Mike cuts in, tells us that the forums are active, and the usual speel related to the brain teasers, before sending us back to the house. Reggie hopes she sleeps well tonight. Pat was about to have a sip of his water, but says it smells like chlorine. Reggie says it’s been tasting like that for days now. Reggie is drifting off to sleep, while Pat is getting ready for bed. The other three can be heard, but as yet, not seen. Dan and Chrissie are talking about the movie “Never Been Kissed”, and Anouska joins in. She and Chrissie think it’s a nice film. Dan is stretching and says that he has to be careful not to show his testicles. Chrissie says she has seen them, but not on this particular occassion. Reggie has seen them as well LOL. Dan says his sack is lower than normal. Anouska wants to have a look see, but Dan is not offerring at the moment. He says his sack is so low….well you can guess. Chrissie wonders if it’s raining, and Dan goes to check for her. It is not raining. Nushy is singing “Get your nuts out!” Chrissie asks if they hang if you haven’t done things in a while. They try to persuade Dan to reveal all for the next few minutes. Dan then does some impersonating while closing and opening the door. The main purpose was of course to get some fresh air in the bedroom.

Patrick leaves the room for the couch. Anouska says she isn’t tired at all. She is back to UK time now she reckons. Chrissie decides to duck across to eat some bread and butter pudding. Mike interrupts then, telling us no more calls for the overnight teaser, before returning to Anouska in the bedroom, plucking her eyebrows. While thats exciting, Mike drops by again, and has Lyn from WA on the line, and she wins the money, the first for the night. Back again, Dan and Chrissie are outside, talking about the pudding. Dan apparently did some gardening earlier this evening, and is talking about what he did with Chrissie now. He now is lifting some weights up. Pat is the kitchen with Chrissie now, eating as well. Chrissie had never eaten that pudding before. She enjoyed it. Chrissie tells Pat she is going to make a cake tomorrow. Chrissie says she doesn’t think she would like the taste of grass. Pat reckons it would be alright. Comm break!

Mike is back yet again, and he opens up the first of the normal brain teasers. Back to the house we go, seeing everyone is awake tonight. On the couch are Anouska and Chrissie. They are trying to guess how to spell Anouska. Pat is nowhere near it. Dan is also in the room, singing rubbish. Chrissie asks why there are demons in the storeroom, she must have heard something. Chrissie is talking about some story she remembers from when she was five or something – a firend of hers couldn’t say the word Chess, saying Chest instead. Chrissie says she saw her first head today, behind the walls. She says she got so scared. Dan is looking at Chrissie’s nighty. She says it has been through lots with her. Perhaps it might be her legacy item or something, because they discuss whether it would bring more money than the blue one. I don’t know what they are talking about really, just assuming. Comm break.

Mike is back, goes through the teaser, gives the clue, then back to Anouska in the kitchen. She is there by herself, chopping up something. It looks like Chrissie has got the rule book out back over at the couch. She is folding the paper up for some reason. She has folded up the page so you can only see the bb logo on it, then holds it across her eyes and starts saying ‘stop playing with your nose.’ Dan grabs it, and has Chrissie laughing so hard in just a few seconds it’s ridiculous. Dan says “Do you mock Big Brother!?” Chrissie just keeps saying “Oh my god!” She gets the paper back, and has another go at it, Anouska coming in at that time, and laughs her head off. It really is quite funny. Such a little thing can be so entertaining for them all. She puts it back in the folder, and they move onto the Spa Instructions, Chrissie replacing the real rules with made up one “Ensure you have consumed at least five litres of alcohol before entering the spa.” Mike comes on, tells us we have a winner and to stop calling, before comm break appears.

Adam from Victoria is the first winner for the evening, well the second actually. He really only started watching because he wanted to perve on Anouska. Sounds like a lovely chap! Anyway, he gets the word correct (I’m still waiting for someone to get it wrong!), and wins $1000. He wants to buy a new TV. Game Two is opened straight away, Mike does his stuff, then we are thrown back to the house again. Chrissie is still reading the rlue book to the others. They have a little joke about the time that Saxon and Vincent led them into the storeroom, which had been turned into a camera run. Dan goes outside, and waves to Anouska, who is skipping, before returning inside. Anouska gets tired of skipping, and starts twisting the rope around herself instead. When we return inside, Dan is telling Chrissie that early on, when Reggie picked up a practice golf ball which had come over the divide, he said to Reg casually that she shouldn’t pick up objects that aren’t from the house because they could be a bomb. Now before I continue, a practice golf ball is has holes in it, and you can see right through it. Reggie though took steps back and wondered if she had done something really bad though! Anouska comes back inside, as Chrissie says the reason the toilet door doesn’t lock is in case the housemates get really drunk and lock themselves in there, people can’t help them. Comm break.

Mike is back again, goes through game two of the teasers, the answer bedroom. Back to the house, Anouska is doing her teeth. The lights have been switched off. Chrissie and Pat both seem to be in bed all of sudden. What happened to the couch chit chat! Anouska goes back to the bathroom to finish her teeth off. Everyone is in bed now. They are trying to become less quiet, slowly happening. Chrissie says she still isn’t tired. Anouska is going to read her book. Chrissie has borrowed one of anouska’s books, and is trying to work out if she will finish it before she leaves, or whether they could send it on to her after she leaves. Comm break!

Mike is back again, believe it or not. He does exactly what he did last time before returning to the house. A bit of whispering, Anouska saying something about being paid or something. Chrissie says it would be a big difference ( I take that as a big difference between what A is getting paid than Chrissie or Dan who get $500 a week.) Chrissie says thats great, grab it while you can. Silence as the girls continue reading. No more calls for the brain teaser! Back to the book reading in the meantime however. Comm break after 3 minutes.

Mike has Jamie from the Gold Coast on the phone. He wins the money. Quick phone call that one, thats the way we like them too :) Overnighters game has started. Genuine is the answer, 1902555610 for the southern states. Mike says he will be back later for the eviction phone numbers, but back we go now. Dan clears his throat. Chrissie has given up on the book tonight, ready for sleep. Dan sits up and looks through his jeans pocket, looking for something… A tissue! He finds it and gives the nose a workout. Anouska is still reading. Wonder what time this started tonight, seeing it’s only 1:25am. Comm break after about 5 minutes of watching Anouska read.

Brain teasers again. He goes through the overnight game, and gives a clue this time. I got it without a clue though, cause I’m smart! LOL. Scroll up for the answer. Now, why is Mike laughing all the way through this segment. Time to go through the eviction numbers now, and he starts singing two of the phone numbers. Too much red cordial for Mike. Mike is off now, night Mike! Back to the books, Nush still reading away. Dan clears his throat on three occassions, Nush decides it’s time for bed and turns her light out before 1:49am comes around and Dreamworld says goodnight.

Keep Looking for Warren,
Dave

Day 74

Regina is up this morning jogging around the backyard.

11:00am – Patrick and Chrissie are in the kitchen. Patrick is going to make every effort to enjoy his last week in the house. Chrissie has “done her calculations” and has a different outcome about their remaining time in the house. She has taken into account the “conspicuous character factor (CCF)”. It’s her theory that conspicuous means annoying. Patrick says that might not work because they are all annoying in their own special way. Chrissie says Patrick is the least annoying… why?… I don’t know, stop annoying me!

12:52pm – Regina is now into her second hour of exercise, she is now working some dumbbell weights. Anouska calls Patrick for his video interview. Chrissie warns him that Anouska has a tabloid interrogation interview style. An exhausted Regina sits down with Chrissie and finds out her interview is soon to come. Anouska has been told to make it all gossipy, and Regina says “oh bugger”.

In the living room:

Anouska: Do you think you could be friends with Regina outside of here?

Patrick: Definitely, she’s just one of those people who’s easy to get along with and you can chat to for hours about everything and nothing.

Anouska: So you’ve said you’d like to be friends with her outside of here, once or twice you’ve made reference to never, ever marry Regina. Why is that?

Patrick: Well she’s married.

Anouska: By why isn’t Regina marriage material in your eyes?

Patrick: Um, she’s just… I usually go for girls that are a bit taller, and different from Reggie I guess.

Anouska: Is Regina a bit too common for you?

Patrick: No definitely not

Later:

Anouska: Who was the next person you remember meeting?

Patrick: I met Chrissie next. I’ve gotten to know Chrissie to a certain level, but not as well as I know Regina…

Anouska: So you prefer Regina to Chrissie?

Patrick: I’d say that we’ve gotten along better… It would be more likely we’d be friends after this…

Anouska: So you think Chrissie’s boring?

Patrick: I didn’t say she’s boring I think I’m not as well connected as she might be to other people in the house.

Anouska goes along to ask if Patrick likes Chrissie the least in the house – Patrick says he doesn’t know her as well as the others. Anouska ends the interview and Patrick says “you sneaky little girl!”

4:43pm – It’s now Regina’s turn to be interviewed. She’s a bit nervous and expects Anouska to ask about her relationship with other housemates.

Anouska: What would be the one thing you would change about Patrick?

Regina: Um, to get him to talk to me at night when he’s in bed. He used to say he’d fall asleep talking to Jo but he didn’t he kept talking.

Anouska: Why don’t you think he talks to you?

Regina: Because I’m annoying and I get on his nerves (she laughs).

Anouska: Do you like Patrick?

Regina: Yeah, he’s nice. Just friendship, nothing more. I have no sexual, physical attraction to Patrick.

Anouska: I’ve noticed, every now and then you look at him differently

Regina: Oh! Do I? I didn’t mean to!

Anouska then quizzes Regina about Chrissie. Regina feels that Chrissie was closer to Jo than her, and that Chrissie probably would rather Jo be in the final four housemates. Meanwhile Daniel is playing air guitar with a tennis racket, much to the amusement of Chrissie who collapses on the deck laughing.

Anouska: So, from the sound of things, you prefer Patrick to Chrissie.

Regina laughs

Regina: Nah probably Chrissie because she talks to me at night where Patrick won’t.

Anouska: Do you not think he’s hiding his feelings for you?

Regina laughs hysterically

Regina: No! Oh, I just remembered something – when I was up for nominations the first time he went and played his guitar and he only plays his guitar when he’s upset and thinking about something.

Anouska: Oooh.. does that excite you?

Regina: And also that night, he came up to my bed and gave me a kiss goodnight.

Anouska: Did that excite you?

Regina: I was thinking “ooh thats a bit weird”.

Anouska: Do you fancy Patrick?

Regina: Ah no, I’ve got no attraction

Anouska doesn’t let up about Patrick’s attention to her, much to Regina’s amusement who finds the accusations hilarious. Anouska thanks Regina for the most honest interview she’s done.

6:39pm – Anouska is making an English dinner for the housemates: “Toad in the hole”. Regina has heard of it but Chrissie worries it will be disgusting. Meanwhile Patrick is playing the guitar and singing with Daniel outside. Anouska is yelling at her cooking utensils. Chrissie and Regina discuss why it’s called “Toad in the hole”.

Anouska is getting frustrated about her cooking but Patrick lends a helping hand. He tells her not to watch the cooking in the oven otherwise it won’t rise. She worries it will end up like a pancake. She jokes he is a kitchen nazi. Regina joins them and Anouska tells her “its been one culinary disaster after another”. Regina joins in to help with the cooking but Anouska gets annoyed when Patrick tries to take control. It eventually turns out as “roadkill” rather than “Toad in the hole”. Chrissie says it looks delicious regardless.

Everyone agrees it tastes great even though it’s flat, but Anouska looks disappointed.

10:24pm – In the bedroom Regina tells Patrick if he lies down next to her he’ll fall asleep, so he sits on a chair instead. At the other end of the bedroom, Anouska says she doesn’t think Regina will be evicted – Chrissie agrees. They wonder what it is about Regina that makes it seem strange if she’s evicted. Daniel says every bit of her is magic yet she doesn’t even know – It’s Aussie at it’s most charming. Chrissie wonders why she’s so appealing. Regina yells out imagine if you had been complaining about some one in your sleep, and Anouska suggests if you were yelling out sexual things in your sleep about another housemates. Regina had a dream about Saxon, and another dream about a mysterious stranger where all she could see was a (censored beep). They question her about the first dream about Saxon, but Regina tries to change the subject and the others pull her up on it. Regina keeps laughing. Chrissie explains: Reg says “yeeeah.. um..” and then moves onto something else. Regina is still laughing.

Day 73 Uplate

Here we go, everyone asleep again, so it should be a awesome night of entertainment. Let’s get straight into it. We go to the bedroom, naturally, where the camera is on no one in particular. Ohh, someone just flushed the toilet I think. Patrick! He gets back into bed, everyone else sound asleep. It’s strange that Mike hasn’t stuck his head in yet. The program has been on for a good five minutes now. Ah, here he is! Mike tells the housemates to wake up. He tells us to stay tune because it’ll be an interesting night nonetheless. $3000 is up for grabs tonight, as per usual. Mike says that Chrissie and Daniel had an interesting conversation today. Dan says “It’s great that a women your size can come on this show.” Chrissie replied that it shouldn’t matter, no one complained of Ben’s gut.” Anyway, watch tomorrow nights show for more on that. Also, apparently Anouska is trying to be matchmaker, pushing Reggie and Patrick together.

Back to the house however now, and over to Chrissie’s corner we travel. Silence. Suddenly brain teaser time! Heather from Adelaide will win the overnighters money today. LOL, she doesn’t know if she knows it yet. She answers Pioneer, and wins the money! First winner from SA. She only tried four times. She wants Reggie to win. They show her in her bed. She plays Pick The Camera game now. 26 is the diary room. Mike says the DR Chair can be won on Ebay, via the OS. 24 is the kitchen. Ends the call now, and then we go back to the house to check if anything is happening. And what do you know, nothing is happening. Chrissie’s corner is show again, and before long, Mike comes back, and has Leigh Coleman on the phone, from some radio station. He apparently nows Jo, he went to a party of hers, and actually spent the night in Jo’s mother’s bed. They also have the lead singer (Juanita) from Waikiki, but she never gets to watch TV at night, so she doesn’t know a thing about it. She wouldn’t last in one place for 3 months, no hope she says. She would get booted up for not doing enough. Leigh would win however, he would joke heaps more than they do at present. Leigh wants Regina to win.They play virtual director now, camera 31 is the of the fire and the dinner table. 17 is a blacked out area, they hit the infa red button, and you can see the beds. Soon enough, the interview ends, and again we go back to the house. Oh c’mon, damn well go to a comm break. Finally I get my wish.

Cashtime when we return. The first for the night is bought up on the screen, and Mike goes through the usual stuff related to the brain teaser, before returning to the house. A quick wander round to check if everything is well, and then Mike says they will have a chat to a psychologist. We have Anouska on the screen at present, sleeping away. She looks very peaceful there. Mike returns now and has Lisa on the phone. MIke met her only on Sunday at the eviction show. She is a complete BB addict like me! She watches every show! Anyway the shrink says Anouska would be terribly worried about her possible pregency. Shrink says she would be terrified because she has only been with the guy for a month, but before she can finish, Mike tells her to hold on, while we have a comm break.

Back again we are! Mike quickly runs through the brain teaser, and then gives the clue, and the answer is….I have no idea LOL. Too hard for 12:46am. Anyway, back to Lisa now. Lisa says that Anouska trying to put Pat and Reggie together could be a disguise for Anouska liking Patrick. Lisa thinks the personality of the housemates might change, because we are coming into the business end of the series. She has noticed Chrissie playing one person off the other. Lisa thinks Daniel is definately playing the game. She thinks Jo was playing three guys in the hope of staying in the house. Mike says that Jo is at Dreamworld for the rest of the week. End of conversation with Lisa, and Mike says that the first brain teaser game has ended. A bit of flirting between Lisa and Mike before she says goodbye. Oh dear….Comm break.

Moneytime. Well time to give it away anyway. Donna from NSW is on the phone. She has two kids. She answers CORRECT. Oh, I so should have got that. She rung about 8 times. Now, he wants to talk to Donna. She wants Reggie to win. Virtual Director time. Camera 22 is the same one that they already had on the screen – that or they don’t want to show 22. Camera 3 is from the toilet looking down over the beds. She doesnt think Anouska is pregnent. Anouska will be leaving on Sunday night of course. Game Two is started, Mike running through the usual speel. Donna says she gets together with friends and discusses BB all the time. They start talking about Gretel’s clothes. She was sad to see Jamie go. Oh dear, Patrick is up, and going to the toilet AGAIN!!! What the heck has the guy been drinking. Anyway, they say goodbye to Donna now, before Mike sends us to a comm break.

Back to Mike, and the brain teaser again, with the clue, and I got it! REMAIN is the answer. Hopefully he doesn’t talk to anyone else in this segment, just send us back to the house and give me a freaking break! Oh dear, he has Jess on the phone AGAIN in just a minute. He sends us back to the house though for a sec. It was about one minute I reckon. Jess is on now, and god thats an annoying voice. She says that Marty and her relationship is fake. Only kidding she says. He has broken his AC joint apparently, poor Marty. He gets to play the playstation 24/7 now while he gets better. She hit her head on Rove I think. She got the outfit she wore on Rove tonight at an Op Shop. Lovely! Jess, at this time last year, was evicted at the end of Week 11. While she would have liked to have made it too the end, she was happy with the experience. And she won the love of her life instead! She thinks that Dan and Pat are the game players. She doesn’t think Reg is playing the game though. She thinks Pat will be evicted this weekend. Jess liked Dan, but has gone off him because he spat the dummy at Reggie over the salt jokes. She says that she waited about a month before she started using her mobile once she was evicted, she didn’t want to start using it again. Mike basically cuts her off, and we are sent to a comm break.

Mike is back yet again, and he runs through the brain teaser again, and again gives the clue, and the usual speel. Now, what will he do this time. Off to the house we go. We get a shot of Anouska and Dan, away with the fairies. Nothing much happens, before Mike appears again, only thirty seconds later I reckon. He goes through the eviction phone numbers. After that, they have a play on the Official Site. The brain teaser is closed now. Back to the house, and everyone is stil asleep. They decide soon enough to go to a break, and will return for the overnight game and the winner in just a few moments!

He has Alex who is on holiday’s on the phone, and wins the money by answering the teaser correctly. He has lots of people in the house and he is going to wake his brother up and tell him now (he has a cordless phone.) While Alex does this, Mike goes through the overnight game. I can’t even be bothered worrying and using the brain to think of this one. OK, It’s easy, STAPLES. There you go, 190255610. Anyone can win the money from anywhere from OZ. He wakes up the brother, and the kid says “SHUT UP!” I don’t blame the poor kid. He goes through the overnight game one last time. Mike then says goodnight, and we’ll see him again tomorrow night, same time, same place. Back to the house we are sent, and Anouska is still asleep. Comm break.

At 1:50am, we are sent back to the bedroom one last time. Nothing happens for the next 8 minutes, before Dreamworld says goodnight.

Keep Looking for Warren,
Dave.

Day 73

10:38am – Big Brother announces that the hot water is off, and the store room is open, however he jumbles up his words a little and the housemates have a chuckle. They agree the uncomfortable pause by BB was what made it funny. Housemates move towards the store room. Regina has asked Patrick to put her chocolates in the store room rather than the kitchen so they won’t be as tempting. Patrick puts them on top of the fridge, which is out of Regina’s reach. Reg says that is too far otherwise, she won’t be able to grab some when she wants chocolate.

Anouska is up now and gets ready for the day. Regina is now annoyed about Patrick “confiscating” her chocolates. She says she will get them down some way.

1:27pm – Anouska is continuing with her video interview task. She is now interviewing Chrissie in bed on her views towards Dan.

Chrissie: The weird thing is when I first met Dan… I was already laughing. So that was a good indication of what was to come. We had our first good belly laugh within 24 hours. He does this weird thing with his mouth (she demonstrates)… it’s so funny.

Anouska: Does he have anything that irritates you?

Chrissie: Not really, I guess if anything it would be he is very pedantic about recycling but I think thats endearing.

Anouska suggests that Dan is her favourite and Chrissie finds the others annoying. Chrissie starts laughing and says Anouska must have gone to the “English Tabloid School of Reporting”. They both laugh. Anouska wraps things up.

1:50pm – Anouska is now interviewing Daniel on tape in the kitchen. She asks him what he thinks of Chrissie.

Daniel: Yeah Chrissie’s just a really happy person. When she laughs its very genuine and for people who are a little overweight the world can be harsh to them but it doesn’t seem to bother Chrissie… if they’re happy when themselves they’re great to be around.

Anouska: If you were to say one thing about Chrissie thats annoying, what would that be?

Daniel: I really can’t think of anything about Chrissie that is annoying

Anouska: Really?

Daniel: Well I spose it annoys me slightly that I don’t find her attractive because then she’s be a great person to be with and be attracted to as well.

Anouska: You couldn’t find Chrissie attractive? Boyfriend/girlfriend material?

Daniel: No, not really

Anouska: Why isn’t she girlfriend material?

Daniel: I think everyone has a physical body type and as nice as Chrissie is and as fun to be around, she doesn’t suit my physical type. Unfortunately.

Anouska: So you’re a bit sizist?

Daniel: Well everyone has a preference don’t they? For me to feel masculine I’d like to pick a girl up.

5:39pm – Chrissie comments she found it funny when Saxon put food right under the “EAT” sign in the kitchen. She goes into the kitchen to finish preparing dinner and Daniel soon joins her. He says the world is usually not friendly to people who are different or a bit larger. He says one of the coolest things about her is that she doesn’t make an issue about her weight. Chrissie can’t believe how much attention it’s been getting – she compares it to Regina not talking about her 5 foot height or Jamie about his sexuality. She says it’s not a big issue at all and she doesn’t know why this conversation is taking place.

5:51pm – Chrissie pries into Daniel’s discussion and wonderment of her weight. Dan feels the world is hung up on appearances but Chrissie says Dan is just perpetuating it.

Daniel: I have to admit I am affected by visuals – there’s women that I find attractive.

Chrissie: I’m not here for you to find me attractive, I’m not in the world for people to find me attractive either. It’s not the role of a woman just to be attractive to women.

Chrissie gets the feeling Daniel feels Chrissie is embarrassed or less capable of doing Big Brother. Chrissie says you don’t see Dan questioning Regina about her supposed inability to use big words or Vincent taking his top off when you’ve got pimples all over your back. Daniel is silent as he is put in his place. He eventually says he knows a lot of women who are hung up about their appearance. Chrissie says she knows that goes on but it’s pointless.

Daniel feels Chrissie is having misconceptions about what he’s saying. Chrissie says she understands it as Daniel suggesting she is uncomfortable with the way she looks. Chrissie says the idea of attractiveness is unique to each person and some people see attractiveness as an “inside” quality. The conversation ends on a positive note about dinner.

9:17pm – Patrick and Regina are lying on their beds. Patrick is half asleep until Anouska wakes him. She suggests Reg and Patrick sleeping in the double bed – she can see them being married. Reg laughs and Patricks says Anouska obviously doesn’t know him very well. She eggs them on to kiss, “you two look really good together”. Regina says “Pattie only likes tall girls with blonde hair and intelligent.. he doesn’t like little squirts with short hair, annoying voices, tattoos”. Anouska continues with the bating. Regina says she likes footballers and firemen. Dan jokes footballers on fire – flaming footy. He says they are all eye candy to Regina, and she agrees.

10:35pm – Patrick can’t sleep and is plucking his guitar in the living room. In the bedroom Anouska says to Chrissie “I think I’ve caught Regina looking at Patrick all adoringly”. Chrissie denies anything happening, but Anouska says it is nice – she would like them to get together. Chrissie reminds Anouska that Regina is married, but Anouska just giggles and Chrissie says “you are wicked!”.

Chrissie: I don’t think it’s going to happen

Anouska: You never know

Chrissie: Yeah you do know… it’s not going to happen

Anouska: I’m going to make it happen

They laugh into their pillows as not to wake any of the other housemates. Anouska discusses her suspected pregnancy with Chrissie – who says “if thats the way it goes, thats the way it goes”.
