...Sunday night's BOTS... another audience member gets to join the panel tonight... (oh dear this looks like it's going to be a regular feature)... although the first one they had was actually good but I'm dreading it if they get that stupid 'mad gay Irishman' on there... I just won't watch it if he goes on there... Daniel Baldwin is on and speaks of why he was nominated by Chloe and was perplexed as to why it was because he took a cigarette... he says of Janella that she is basically a cartoon as far as her persona goes in his eyes... his opinion of of what Austin did was just him 'playing the game'... fair enough call on his part but I still don't believe it myself... he believes that James will eventually win this and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he does win it either...

...Carol McGiffin (whoever that is?) and Josie Gibson (again whoever that is?) and Clare Muldoon (**sigh** do I need to say it?) have their say... Carol believes that Austin made Gayle feel good doing what he did and that's what counts... Clare agrees too... Daniel sticks to his guns with his opinion though...

...Josie does a report from the camera runs... **YAWN**... (I always find these things so boring)... she does make one comment that merits mentioning... "there's Farrah... she has a face like a slapped arse!"... cut back to the studio and there she is applauding her own report ... Carol talks about Feral Ferret-Faced Farrah and about how desperate she is to stay in the headlines... so true... she hopes to God that James and Feral Ferret-Faced Farrah don't hookup because it would be the death of him... again... so true...

...Rylan's 'Today's News' segment... Janella's and Chris's 'role playing' skit was bloody hilarious!... it wasn't even a task it was just fun on their part lol!... later Chris sees Janella doing yoga and 'the splits' and says... "it's funny... she can do that but she can't even walk without falling over!"... hahahaha!... (Chris if you did all of this earlier Scoop may not have picked you my friend)... James and Austin swapped 'speedos' and have a 'walk-off' in front of Janella and she deems Austin the winner because he played to the 'camera'... (she was the camera apparently)...

...Scoop is sure doing a lot of 'praying to keep the Stars and Stripes up that flagpole' until the end... he's so lucky that God answers his prayers only isn't it?... ... the calls from some viewers were meh!... moving on... the old grey-haired chick ('Babs')...that is always in the audience walks down the stairs to join the panel... the elected Brits to be up for eviction by the Yanks are Bobby/Chloe and Stiffy/and Gayle that are to join Chris...

...PLEASE... THE BRITISH PUBLIC... VOTE OUT STIFFY AND CHLORINE!!!!!... I BEG OF YOU!!!!... PLEASE!!!!... PLEASE!!!...

...all the preferences of who should go varied quite a bit between the panelists and that 'Babs' lost me when she said that Stiffy and Chlorine should stay... (stupid woman)... but Daniel came up with such a brilliant idea that I would wet my pants if Big Brother actually did it... he said... "you go ahead and kick them out (Stiffy and Chlorine) and then you say to them in the Diary Room 'but here's the twist'... Stiffy can stay just as long as you both consent that Stiffy stays in and Chlorine leaves!"... hahahaha!... what a brilliant idea!!!!... God I wish that would happen lol!... funny as!... I like the way that Daniel's brain ticks over lol!... a pretty boring show overall but it did have it's moments here and there I thought... cheers.

Are people here actually impressed with Austin shaving his head? It was such a self-serving move and it's really just a haircut for him. A dude with a shaved head isn't an entirely novel idea and I'm sure he's donned a shaved head before at one point in his life. I don't see what's so impressive about a dude shaving his head, especially someone like Austin who is obviously at least somewhat aware of public perception and all that meta stuff.

I couldn't agree more - plus, he was more than a wee bit tipsy. He may or may not have shaved his head had he been sober but I very much doubt he would have played his role as "true friend/sympathiser/equal" in a sober state as well as he did and pander to Gail's not so well concealed, persistent demand to be pitied, he is too smart for that.

Thank god for alcohol

Day 11: Austin shaves his head in solidarity
about 4 hours ago

In a late night conversation with Gail, Austin was so touched by her story that he decided to make a personal sacrifice to show his support. What do you make of his new do?

let's not get too cynical ... but its also a great way to secure the UK public's vote


you'll be pleased to know James tidied it up for him ...

James also claimed "ya know what - the last couple of days - I THOUGHT about doing something like this but I didn't have the balls to do it?

1 I call bullshit on the "I thought about"
2 He'd never do it because he's such a vain self-centred jerk

If anyone can give me a link to that shaving machine that was used in, let's say the 'Shaver Shop' - I'll shave my head every other day without Gail and not even for charity but because I've got the hots for James and I intend to make him grow inside.

What a bunch of pathetic losers.

 

[Dystopia]

you've all turned me into a total cynic!!! I was ever so nice and innocent and unsuspecting til I came in here!!

...no comment

"The Scoop" was 'exhausted from his presidential duties' and duly took a rest and a thorough snore. Did you see any teeth??? NO - you did not!!

I love "The Scoop" and his profound one-liner wisdom: Second day or so, Janice was ready to go on the war path with the other two Duckbills over an issue only Janice understands. "The Scoop" promptly offered his support and prepped her by saying: "You do - what you do." His most well known mantra is: "It is what it is."

He is very smart, he pretends to be talking to Jesus - all American presidents have to do that in case you didn't know but... I figured it out as soon as he walked through the door:

HE IS THE BUDDHA REINCARNATED.

There.... do you see any teeth???

...for sure the alcohol did make him want to shave his head so as to be a sort of 'compassionate bald buddy' to make Gayle feel better within herself because the alcohol got him swept up in the emotional wave that was happening at the time and you're right... if it was the next day and he was sober as it had happened I think that he would've still done it but just to gain the airtime that he craves and to score brownie points with the nation just as all the Americans do... he would have done it in both case scenarios but I believe for such different reasons...

...and I believe that you're dead right about Gayle being like that... when you see that side of her and add it to her so-called obsessive 'I've got to clean... I've got to clean' routine it shows to me that that's her way of trying to stay in the house as far as I'm concerned... (I'm glad that you pointed that out Dystopia)... she's playing it that way in the hope that everyone in Britain goes... "aw!... poor Gayle... she has had such a bad run of things... we can't possibly vote her out!"... you know what?... they probably won't either... that's my take on it anyway... cheers.

...I think that I have solved the mystery of where his teeth are Dystopia... he's always talking out of his arse so perhaps they're hidden there?... (just my deductive reasoning at work there folks!)... ... cheers.

I don't believe Gail doesn't give a F about her hair,I lost a lot of my hair about two years back and I was miserable,
it affects everything and Austin shaving his head?????? I am sorry but a man shaving his head is nothing compared to a woman losing her
hair.

My sister had a friend who lost her hair from a young age and although she wears a wig,people are cruel,cruel,cruel to people who are not normal

 

[troynuncdicit]

Exactly, a shaved head for Austin is nothing more than a fashion statement. It doesn't compare to Gail losing her hair due to alopecia. I'd actually be moved if one of the girls did it.

Yes I saw teeth ... he was lying on his bed and talking and I saw them
AND ITS ALL YOUR FAULT I HAVE THIS FIXATION WHENEVER HE STARTS TALKING I HAVE TO LOOK TO SIGHT TEETH

Absolutely agree and Austin made that point ... his will grow back but he was reaching out to her in that moment ...and maybe he felt that symbolically that was the only way to get her to understand that this outspoken brash loudmouthed argumentative american did care about her


Not living in the UK ... not having any knowledge of Gail and how popular she was .. how much of an "it" girl she was (to have her naked body screened onto the Houses of Parliament) ... yes the viewing public will sympathise ... but they want entertainment and if all they see is tears and all they hear from the panel is "she needs to be out for her own wellbeing" ...eventually she'll be gone

Always makes me laugh (and snarl) at panelists who make judgement calls on "wellbeing" like that ... do they think Gail's partner .. her family and even Gail herself haven't gone over and over this decision. This is a totally different breed of BB than BBpopularitycontestAU ... this is BBferalUK ... they have to know how ugly it can get ... especially when you mix in EGO and then add a dash of the great divide between stiffupperlip English and brash inyourface American ... let alone Celebrity vs Reality TV famewhores

 

[Dystopia]

Now now... take a deep breath - make sure those blood pressure pills in your medicine cabinet are well labelled

I know exactly what you mean Sticky and DO agree with you.... though I wouldn't dare to put it as eloquently as you especially now that he's president.

What an irony - who would have thought that the US of A would have not one but two black presidents simultaneously tending their flock. With all the money the producers spend on mustard and hot dogs and fishguts and whatnot, you'd think they'd have the decency to provide CIC Scoop with his own

Airforce One

...complete with his Marine One

...to take him from the lawn up to the loft to take in the sights.

I don't think he's been up there since that mandatory stint on the first night. Those stairs must be hell for him.

We should all sign a petition and send it to the producers pleading they do the right thing by President Scoop.

WOW crimmy.... and I always had you down as a 'Mother Theresa' type.

You do have your bright moments - was the cocktail of meds just right when you typed this? I actually agree with you... for once.

Like you I don't know who Gail is or was, I actually don't know ANY of them or their claim to fame.

First or second day in the house Gail told a story about someone suggesting she wore a wig, to which she replied 'if you can't appreciate (or like) me the way I am then....' or something along those lines. I was impressed by that attitude and as I've never seen her with hair, I found her quite attractive.
But now she wears that silly looking hat - why?? Because it gets cold at night outside in the yard? No. Once you've had your head shaven for a few days you won't feel the cool of the night.

I know, I know... HMs like to wear beanies and fedoras and maybe brown paper bags over their heads for a fashion statement. That's cool, I don't mind make up either but why choose the ugliest hat there must be on the planet?
That hat makes Gail look ugly, daggy and needy, it's NOT a fashion statement. She is looking for sympathy, there is no doubt in my mind. She could just wear another type of beany, different colour, not so big - make her look as cheerful and strong as she likes to pretend she is.

...or maybe the fact that "Kosher Jenna" by NOT shaving her head spits god in the face while she, Gail is condemned by the same god to go hairless even though she is NOT kosher.

....or maybe BECAUSE of that.... tricky one. Gotta do some more research

the whole Mother Theresa thing wouldn't wash with the orange jumpsuit - we've been over this before !!!

Ok Baldy (figure you have personal experience in this or else you'd be talking through your ... ummm.. ok I'll say .. talking through your arse again mate!!) I'll take your word for it about not feeling the cold after a few days of shaving your head - but I really DON'T believe it ...

are you jealous she has a cuter little hat than you do? all you have to do is ask - I'll knit you one for your birthday ... I only have orange wool - is it your colour too?

she MAY have been limited as to what hat she could bring into the house - nothing that detracts from the camera's view of her face ... no logos/labels ... she might then have been limited as to what she could grab at the last minute ... and what was available in the shops (and if bright colours are OUT you aren't going to find them easily in the shops!! we fashionista types know these things - that why I know orange IS the new black - how did you miss this??!!

Gail has experienced depression in the past ... whether this has some bearing on her demeanour and she's struggling to cope in there I don't know - and I'm not about to start spouting the "she needs to be out of the house for her own good" line because BB knows all this and they and her family and Gail herself would be keeping an eye on it

so from what you said anyway ... I guess you'd rather she wear one or other of these ...

I like this it has orange on it plus I have a thing for Elmo

this is OUT - I can tell you that now - Gail would object to the fur ... BB would object to the obstruction of her face from the cameras so go put it back in your closet NOW!!

a little birdie says you won't like this one

noone can say she isn't a hard worker ... but think BB would disallow this one (copyright and all that jazz)

and probably this one too - but have to admit it would come in handy for those midnight trips to the loo!! or midnight snacking

quite the cutie! but you're going to nix this one as well ... what do you have against pink? what did PINK ever do to you??!!

and we have a winner!!! can Gail borrow your hat please?

Good Lawd! I think crimmy just did a "Farrah in the DR-gate" on me. I shall settle for the yellow hard-hat then - this is getting dangerous.

 

[Dystopia]

OI!! Bronnie called - she wants her helicopter back!!!

Here you go:

Not nearly as spacious and capable and armour-plated as Marine One, but it's faster. It's the same one you might have seen in Jurassic Park (first movie) ..... it's an Agusta Westland for people with lotsa dough and little time.

....there is something fishy going on here. When Bronnie was still speaker I never saw a single post by one "crimmy" - didn't even know she existed. Now, since said Bronnie is out of a job and hates knitting and crocheting, now there is one "crimmy" energetically keeping order in the house.
...and now she wants her goddamn helicopter back.

BOTS Spoiler for Sticky - no, I'm not covering it up
