‘Big Brother: Secrets & Lies’

I hope Jemima (or Jeremiah as Gina called her during noms) stays to be honest, I don't like her but she is rather entertaining, especially when alcohol is involved. Sick of Dexter, I feel uncomfortable watching him navigate through conversations and I feel a bit sorry for him .... Hoping he goes this week.

Sadly I think you are right. Like the other day when he was talking to Daley about being socially awkward and Daley was saying "me too". I hoped they might bond over it and possibly support each other, but Dexter didn't want to HEAR it, he just wanted to SAY it. Me me me.

I still hope for his sake that there is more to him.
 
Running commentary from Theorist, what fun.

I saw most things the way you did, except for Jemima being faultless in the arguments. I do think she got a bit over-dramatic. But Jackie just thought she had it nailed: she only has one ovary - her grandmother died on top of her (WTF?). The only thing missing was "SNAP".

That then led to my favourite part of tonight's show, between Dan and Jemima: "BUT SHE'S ALIVE"

She died, but she got better. lol
 
It really was a battle of who had it worse between Jackie and Jemima...Charlie handled the situation better than her mum but of course that was going to be Jackies' reaction, it's her daughter! Jemima should understand that and had the chance to just back out of the conversation and let things settle down but she then went into battle mode and was quite hypocritical really. "My Daughter Died", perhaps Jemima needs to take on her own advice and think before she speaks.

Dexter loved the attention he was getting with the possible twin conspiracy and it entertained me whilst it lasted also.

It's also nice to see Gina giving everything a go, she has really grown on me and hopefully will continue to do so.

On to Wolfy...she was my hands down favorite to begin with but every day that goes on I am finding myself to be more and more annoyed and the things she says and does. LOVED the Quarantine task!
 
FFS, the pissing contest about who has had the hardest life was painful to watch.

Boo to both Jackie and Jeremiah.

Charlie's socially inept, not just the comment, but the way she cried about making it... I thought Hazel was all class over it, it was so inappropriate and clearly rocked her, I don't think she was being narky, just working through her reaction. She was sweet to say 'hug, say nothing more about it'.

Wolfy and her bees can buzz off, so not feeling her.

We need more shirtless Dan, I'm feeling deprived of eye candy. I loved how he had a go at Jeremiah, he said everything I was thinking.

I think the task is very interesting, it was great seeing Gina take one for the team and really debunk any ideas about her being a selfish brat. I thought she might walk out over it, but she clearly wants to be there now and being saved made her SO happy.

Gina, Dan and Hazel are my favourites at the moment.
 
So on the secrets front, presumably there is a pool under one of those big fake grass circles in the yard?
 
Yeah there is a pool or hot tub or something hidden in the garden, Emma said during her tour.

Apparently Dan badgered Wolfy until she vomited, cried and got a nosebleed, it'll be interesting to see how much of it they show, bit dim on his part seeing she got chants from the public during last weeks eviction
 
What a fantastic episode! Really one of the best I've seen yet!

That task... wow, man. Seriously, Aussie Big Brother is so piss weak compared to UK Big Brother (and I say this after seeing that task, plus any other UK task I've seen bits and pieces from over the years). That task was brilliant and he really went all out with it.

So amazing to see Gina take that one for the team, she really impressed me there. So cruel, but the perfect HM to see go through it and succeed. Same with Dan, who was absolutely hilarious.

SO SO happy Gina was saved. I'm liking her more and more.

Bring on the eviction!
 
Gina actually looked human without the makeup! I thought we may never get to see that.

I keep finding myself agog at the screen, staring at just how beautiful Hazel is...
but sadly she cannot have me, I only have eyes for Sophie.
 
Hazel is gorgeous. Quite clever too I think. Only time will tell if she uses that cleverness slyly or not.
 
The UK tasks are fantastic!!! The Quarantine task was one of the best i have seen for a long long time and I love how it didn't just last a couple of hours...they were made to stay for a full day. The only task that was memorable for me from 2012 would be the Big Baby Task, and that wasn't great...

The more elaborate the whole task got the more I realized that if it was an Australian task, BB would probably have let them go after like an hour or two, and that's not before the HM's would be whinging and moaning.

Not to mention, the bit with Gina would have been criticized to absolutely no end by both general viewers and of-course the anti-everything groups. :rolleyes: It was fantastically played out though, and added a whole new level of depth to Gina's character in the house tbh.

Kudos to the UK team - cannot wait to see how it concludes tomorrow! ;)
 
Dexter and Gina are still my favourites because they are different to the boring group of Daley, Callum, Sam, Sophie, Charlie ect. ect. The Twins are slowly growing on me. I loved Dan at the start, than I hated him, now I am starting to like him again. I don't know if thats because he had an argument with my least favourite Housemate of all time from any series around the world (Jemima) or if I am genuinely starting to like him again.

Dan, Dexter, and Gina are 3 who aren't afraid to go against the mould and have an opinion and an argument and they are all definitely not fence sitters. There are wayyyyyy to many fence sitters in this years series so I think it is no coincidence that the 3 I am liking most at the moment are those who aren't sitting on the fence and aren't afraid to be their true selves (the good and the bad). The rest of the Housemates (minus Jemima who despite not being a fence sitter is just someone I hate and can not stand even 1 tiny bit) are all playing the game, flying under the radar trying not to do something that might be portrayed negatively to the public and the contrast between Dan, Gina and Dexter compared to the rest of the Housemates in terms of "real" personality is quite significant in my opinion.

I hope as the season goes on some of the other characters develop and start to come out of their shells so to speak.
 
They actually looked sick though? It was bizarre... and you're right BBAU would never have it go on so long.

I thought it was great... and the tunnel through the bedroom, too hilarious.
