Debate: Should Kate Be Evicted? (TiGS 52.6%)
BBBA Radio – Week 2
10.29am – Bodie and TJ are in the bathroom, she asks if he got any sleep. The response is “a little bit”. They slept in different beds last night after a tiff. Bodie quickly leaves the room and TJ throws towels at the door just as he leaves, calling him a “fuckhead”. Later in the kitchen Bodie makes a meal and Thomas says he heard the lovers had a tiff last night. Bodie says “as if I would want to have anything series in here, I just wanna have some fun”.
Emma has come to the diary room to ask about toilet paper. She didn’t realise she was supposed to grab it in the shop yesterday and thought it was included in the staples. BB says it was made clear the shopper chef (Emma) was in charge of getting toilet paper. To get toilet paper from BB they will have to sacrifice chocolate and meat. The housemates aren’t pleased when they hear about this. Joel and Bodie both do everything they can to stop Emma from returning the bacon. Emma runs outside with the bacon and the boys grab it off her. Emma stops the shenanigans in all seriousness they must sacrifice the bacon, but Bodie still won’t let up. After the other housemates intervene he gives it up. Emma goes back to the diary room and asks if she can sacrifice something else – the coffee instead of the bacon. Big Brother says no. They are given enough toilet paper for the week as deemed by Big Brother.
Outside Bodie apologises to Hayley for their argument earlier in the week. They wish each other good luck for the eviction. In the bedroom Emma reveals she hid a roll of toilet paper under her top “for the girls” incase the rest runs out. She lets TJ know where she’s hiding it in the bedroom.
BREAK
2.47pm – Bodie and TJ are lying on a bed together, and he say she wants to steal a monty carlo biscuit. Outside Andrew tells a group of housemates it would be exciting to leave the house tonight. Travis doesn’t really think so. Meanwhile Bodie has put a bandana over his face and crawls into the kitchen to steal monty carlo biscuits from the pantry. He takes them into the bedroom for TJ, Emma, Aleisha, Joel and himself to eat. Joel makes a big deal about eating the biscuit – he doesn’t feel right about it. Bodie says Joel is either with them or against them. Aleisha can’t eat the biscuit either. The housemates outside are talking about how from now on some one will be leaving each week. Joel has surcummed to eating the monty carlo.
7.17pm – Jamie does his hair in the mirror and sings. Everyone is getting dressed up. BB calls all housemates to the lounge and then gets Emma to explain what her FNL power was – and that Jamie was picked to replace her in being nominated. Jamie says its no problem, Rebecca looks sad. Kate and Hayley go to help Jamie to pack his bag incase he is evicted. Emma starts crying.
BREAK
8.04pm – It’s time to go… Kate. She hugs everyone before leaving through the inside door. The housemates all go outside to cheer goodbye over the wall. Jamie gets upset over the eviction but Bodie is all smiles. He says he feels so good he’s not the first. Emma agrees, but is worried now that she explained she put Jamie up for nomination there will be about 8 housemates wanting to kill her. TJ tells her not to worry about it. Bodie goes and sits by himself for a moment, then lies down.
In the bedroom Jamie explains he feels more bad for Kate than relieved for not being evicted. Aleisha says Kate was ready to go though. Emma apologises again to Jamie for the nomination twist but Jamie again tells her its not a problem.
10.51pm – It’s revealed around the poolside that a few nights ago Billy and Aleisha kissed in their bed. Everyone makes a big deal about it, and chants for them to kiss again. They do.
12.15am – Susannah wants to know what the sleeping arrangements are now that Kate has gone. She wants to know if TJ and Bodie are going to be sleeping together, and TJ screams that nothing is going on and she shouldn’t assume that, but adds she is just kidding. TJ and Bodie bicker over sleeping arrangements.
In the bathroom Hayley and Emma swap notes on the bickering between the dysfunctional couple. While talking Hayley slips over on the floor and says “thats what I get for being a bitch”.
BREAK
12.28am – TJ tells Bodie its hard for her to watch how well Bodie gets along with his friends and she wishes that she got along like that with Bodie. Bodie thinks it might be because they rushed into things. Bodies goes directly over to Emma and lies down next to her. TJ says “I’m over it” and leaves the bedroom, Susannah goes running after her. Bodie looks annoyed at himself. Aleisha and Emma tell Bodie off for coming over knowing TJ will lose the plot. They laugh at him. TJ is talking with Susannah in the living room about the situation. Aleisha and Emma continue to tell Bodie off for not treating TJ right, and getting them in trouble with TJ.
Bodie: There’s now way in hell anyone is going to tell me off for hanging out with who I want to
Bodie decides he’s going to go out and fix this once and for all, kicking everyone out of the living room except for TJ. He says he’s not dealing with the whole thing and he feels like whatever happens she will have harsh feelings towards him. TJ says he’s going to hurt her either way. Bodie just wants to be friends, and TJ words it as admitting he “made a mistake”. Bodie thinks TJ is being “full on” but TJ disagrees. Bodie can only offer TJ friendship right now. TJ wants to know who told him to give this advice considering he kissed her just minutes ago. Bodie goes to walk away. TJ isn’t trying to be boyfriend and girlfriend. Bodie isn’t comfortable with being around her right now and if she doesn’t want his friendship tell him now. TJ pauses.
The housemates in the bedroom predict this isn’t going to end well.
TJ confronts Bodie about him liking Emma… maybe too much. He says at first he had the hots for her but eventually it evolved into a friendship and he has respect and admiration for her. TJ thinks he doesn’t have the same respect and admiration for her. Bodie doesn’t want to have this on his concience. TJ says this is because he can’t deal with this reponsibility. Bodie then crawls under the coffee table in the fetal position while TJ continues to talk. He doesn’t care what she says except love is a “double edged sword”. Bodie shoulds like he’s crying under the coffee table.
In the bedroom the housemates all start laughing about how one pash could turn into so much drama.
Bodie and TJ agree they will talk about it tomorrow.
TJ: “dumped on national television… argh how embarassing!”
Just a quickie…
The one thing we got out of that stupid BBLS streaming article the other day was the fact that this year BB is considering the live stream (and pretty much the whole OS) to be rated “Mâ€. The defamation thing I accept, obviously they have to protect themselves legally. But what I have issue with is this:
“The reason the stream goes to no audio or the vision gets cut is based on the fact that we are obliged to monitor it to TV standards – M classification!â€
What the hell do you mean, ‘obliged to monitor it to TV standards’? No you’re not! Obviously it’s so that they can claim innocence if we get a repeat of last year’s political bullsh*t, but it just pisses me off. Why not revert to the MA rating they gave themselves last year, and just make sure someone’s always keeping an eye on the feed so they don’t broadcast any more turkey slaps? I don’t watch the streams for the nudity or whatever, so I don’t care about that, but when the feed cuts get in the way of an interesting conversation it upsets me.
At least there’s a way to get around the audio cuts – I think I’m going to learn to lip read.
7.29am – Zoran and Susanna are doing thier shift at the fishing task. They discuss TJ and Bodie’s relationship – Zoran doesn’t think its real and the two hope TJ doesn’t get hurt because she’s a nice girl. Zoran noticed a huge change because Bodie like TJ so much at the begining and now he’s giving her the cold shoulder. In the rewards room Hayley and Andrew are enjoying their breakfast of scrambled eggs. When they sit down the bedroom window is revealed, but there are no housemates awake to look into the reward room. Outside Kate is in the pool and Jamie tells her he’s so glad Hayley got the FNL prize… so happy. Kate thinks its good but not great. She does note though its really good Andrew and Hayley have each other in the house – its a massive advantage for them. Jamie does say however they only get one nomination vote between them… there are pros and cons.
Andrew speculates to Hayley that there is “some one out to get us”. And they both immediately suspect Bodie. Andrew wonders why Bodie is so inconsiderate to them, maybe its a mission from Big Brother. Hayley says he’s being as irritating as possible to the other housemates… “he’s just … stupid”. Andrew says Bodie is used to having his mum do everything for him.
11.46am – A fish flys out of the well and Demet quickly springs up and catches it with one hand, falling over. Bodie cheers that was the best catch ever. They both kiss the fish and throw it back in. Big Brother annouces the fishing task is over and everyone cheers. BB says this task was worth $50 000 to the prize pool. Housemates caught 47 fish, however they dropped 3 fish. Each fish that got away was worth $5000. On two occasions Bodie failed to kiss the fish as set in the rule, so BB is deducting a further $5000. The housemates have won $30 000 for the task, bringing their total prize money to $80 000.
12.02pm – Housemates are enjoying themselves around the pool, except Bodie who is sitting in a sunchair looking sorry for himself. TJ sits opposite him about 5 metres away. There is a short pause and then Bodie says to her “maybe we should talk later on and I could come around and see your point of view”. TJ says “maybe…. maybe”. He tells her not to be short with him. TJ isn’t impressed and says “telling me what to do again huh?”. Bodie just wants them to be on good terms. He says the reason he didn’t rush into anything is because he has “oldschool morals”. TJ say she’s saying one thing and doing another however. Bodie thinks maybe he’s going against… “don’t worry then”.
BREAK
1.23pm – Hayley is issuing house chores for the week. She gives environmental watchdog to Susannah. Baker is Thomas. Housekeeper Travis. Chef Emma (she is excited). Kitchenhand Joel. Farmhand to herself. Laundry TJ. Janitor Brodie. Everyone cheers extra loud when Brodie is called and he bows infront of everyone. A little later Hayley is with the animals and she’s brought Jamie with her. They pat Rosy the cow.
2.17pm – Bodie is getting advice about his relationship with TJ. Aleisha says TJ told her she doesn’t start anything unless she’s full blown committed. Aleisha finds this hilarious, as does Bodie. Bodie doesn’t want to be seen as the asshole here but “things are moving a bit too quickly for the ol janitor”. Aleisha and Emma both say he has to do something quick or he’ll be whipped. Billy jokes TJ will expect a proposal on stage after they leave the house. Bodie gets Aleisha to pretent to be TJ so he can practice his speech: “Look, cleaning the toilets has really given me a lot of time by myself to think”. Aleisha then jokes “you don’t have to say anything I’ll still feel the same”. The group of housemates all laugh. While this happens TJ is doing the laundry. Housemates are now encouraging Bodie to just go through with it and tell her how he feels.
Hayley and Jamie emerge from the farm area and alert the housemates they didn’t get a full bottle of milk – they suspect they are only given the amount of milk they can get from Rosy the cow, and lately Rosy hasn’t been giving much.
Bodie decides he’s “going in”. Just randomly Aleisha tells Billy his toes are all “random lengths and stuff” but Billy already knows. Bodie goes over to TJ wearing what can only be described as speedos with suspenders. Bodie tells TJ he has been speaking to Emma and things have been put into perspective. He doesn’t want to start anything because they could be leaving soon to different corners of the country – TJ in Darwin and Bodie in Perth. Bodie isn’t very articulate with his words. TJ doesn’t particularly care – she doesn’t plan anything she says. Bodie doesn’t think he’s dressed for a serious talk, but TJ doesn’t find the joke funny. Bodie doesn’t want TJ to be hurt in this whole thing. TJ replies she won’t get sad. Bodie likes kissing her and cuddling her but… (he doesn’t want to go any further right now). TJ doesn’t want him to think she wants to get married or anything. Bodie doesn’t want to be seen as the asshole in the relationship. TJ thinks Bodie shouldn’t care about what other people think. Just as Bodie goes to clean the toilets he kisses her on the lips, and TJ laughs.
TJ then hums “two faced bitches… in the whole world… fake fake fake”.
“You’re an idiot TJ, you need to smarten up” she says to herself.
On his way to the bathrooms Bodie runs into Emma and fills her in on what the conversation was about. Emma asks suspicously “are you ok with that?”.
BREAK
3.01pm – Hayley and Andrew are having lunch in the rewards room. She asks Andrew what he thinks of her issuing of chores – he doesn’t really have a response, but says “well done” to giving Bodie the janitor task. Hayley is worried it was a cheap shot, but Andrew doesn’t think so. She was aiming for a “reality checkpoint”. Kate is in the bathroom with Bodie and she tells him she isn’t surprised he was given his chore. She says that people in the house don’t like her and Bodie. Talk moves to nominations and Bodie says he’s not that annoyed about being nominated – its rather exciting.
Later Emma is given an annoucement to read to the housemates – it’s shopping time. This weeks shopping budget is $274. The shop will be open for 5 minutes and Emma is immediately called there by Big Brother. She runs there followed by the other housemates. She goes inside while the others watch through the glass door. She grabs everything she can and checks them through, having to pack them in environmental green bags afterwards. BB annouces the shop is closed and she brings everything outside. The housemates all cheer and thank her, then move into the living room to go over what they have to use this week. The most popular items are M&Ms, bacon and butter. Andrew predicts this food will test relationships in the house and will throw that extra bit into the mix.
Kate responds to Andrew comment by saying “nooooooo” to it.
Andrew says to Kate “you won’t Kate, because you don’t give a fuck, but other people will”.
Susannah says no they should just be considerate and ask before taking. Joel says no one should go off and try to dip in. While the other housemates sort through the shopping Kate says to Jamie “oh my god I just got yelled at”. She is in shock, and repeats the conversation that just happened before. Jamie doesn’t think it was yelling, it was just Andrew trying to talk over other people.
Later in the night the girls are dressing up as drags in long socks, mismatching outfits and too much makeup. They are supposed to be 80s girls and parade themselves for the housemates before coming into the diary room. They all pout, and Kate explains they are explaining Demet is now here in “full colour” and is no longer locked in her white shell (the white room). It’s a celebration having Demet here. The girls have a dance for Big Brother, and perform it in teh diary room. TJ leads the booty shaking.
BREAK
8.59pm – Bodie comes into the kitchen where TJ is. TJ says it sucks to be Joel right now (he’s kitchen hand). Bodie and TJ hug and he explains he was worried because Aleisha said it seemed he was ignoring her. TJ says he doesn’t need to “deposit” love throughout the day, and he’s smarter than worrying about what others think. Emma interupts them with a dare for Bodie from a game they were playing in the bedroom – he must walk past the pool with Rebecca and do an erotic dance like a sandwich. Bodie has to finish the conversation with TJ first, Emma is really annoyed. TJ explains she is annoyed Bodie is so close with Aleisha and his “awesome foursome” and she’s just the girl he comes to when he feels like it. TJ is having a hard time with him, and lays down the law: if anyone wants to know about their relationship they should come and talk to her.
Joel walks over and TJ asks him to “guide” Bodie as to what he’s doing wrong in the relationship. Joel laughs and wants to stay out of it while he does the dishes.
A little later the housemates are gathered in the living room. The awesome foursome – Bodie, Aleisha, Emma and Billy – decide to go outside and TJ tells Bodie off. Emma asks TJ if they can have a private conversation in the bedroom. Emma kicks some of the housemates out of the bedroom so they can talk. Bodie joins them, much to the annoyance of Emma. He won’t leave and says he just wants everyone to get along. Emma clarifies they have talked about the relationship with TJ but she has never relayed any information given to her in confidence, and then leaves.
TJ says she won’t join the others because she doesn’t sanction groups and doesn’t want to be an awesome sixsome. Bodie is worried he is leaving the house tomorrow night and wants to have a good time. TJ tells him to go have a good time then. Bodie gets annoyed and storms out of the room.
TJ: “Child!”.
So at the start of the season I said I was trying to keep an optimistic view of Big Brother 2007. I’ve tried very hard over the last week or so to keep things that way!
After some annoyances in the first week (too much focus on the relationship, stupid idea of the relationship in the first place, and so forth), nominations on Monday interested me greatly. Not telling the housemates who’s nominated – GOLDEN! I’ve loved this idea every time it’s been used – and I don’t even mind that it’s been used before. Seeing housemates whinge and cry and moan because they’re nominated and no one likes them is not good viewing. Watching them all squirm, not knowing who is nominated, on the other hand is great viewing.
Apparently the housemates will be told just before the eviction who has been nominated… I don’t want this to happen! Just announce that xxx person is leaving the house, go and pack your bags. Cut to an ad break, show some video packages of that housemate, and then continue with the interview on stage. That’s how it’d happen if I was executive producer, at least.
Another great thing about nominations is the Chicken Treat Twist. The fact that whoever wins Friday Night Live cannot tell anyone who was up for nomination in the first place and who they’ve removed/added is brilliant. Gives them a huge advantage over the rest of the house and the public get to see what the person thinks of the other people who have been nominated. Not so interesting when you remove yourself… but this will change in coming weeks with other winners of FNL.
Ok I don’t want to ramble on too much because I won’t have anything to talk about in the podcast! New podcast should be out some time tomorrow (Friday). We’ve got heaps to talk about!
