So my thoughts about that episode...
Tim is seriously such great quality in that house.
I saw a different side to Tully in tonight's episode. Doesn't excuse her previous behaviour at all, but I kinda enjoyed hearing her thoughts about being in the house with guys and also her Sims thing. I think I just found it appealing more for the intrigue of it. I still find her sulky though.
Really liked hearing Caleb open up about his OCD too. It kinda reminded me of a couple quirks I have and it was nice to be able to hear about that side of him.
Mikkayla is definitely way up there in my top 3 faves, alongside Tahan and Tim!
Jade is an absolute complete desperado. That bed scene with Ed was so so so cringeworthy. I have a feeling that if Tully doesn't get evicted this week, it'll so be Jade by a landslide.
Drew has such sexy moments on screen. There was a shot tonight in the kitchen where I swear his whole package was just resting on the bench through his track suit pants lol! Ugh.
The quiz games were actually pretty funny. Mind you, I still don't like how they practically only have like two days for tasks now - we don't even see how it affects the week anymore. Do they still even have the shopping budgets and food rationing if they pass or fail? Don't think we've heard about it at all this year?
Matt continued to prove he serves no purpose in there, nor anywhere lol. He is just so thick.
I still don't get the leniency on nominations talk either. I mean, I actually kind of don't mind how they can discuss it at the moment, by not revealing who they voted for and stuff but just by discussing it in general. My problem with why it annoys me though is that the whole rule hasn't actually been acknowledged as whether it still exists or if it's been downgraded now. If they'd just had Sonia or BB say mention something at the start of the season about it I'd be fine with it. It's just that back in the day this type of talk would have been severely punished for. I just want them to acknowledge and officially state to us that this particular type of "nominations talk" is supposedly allowed now as long as the housemates don't reveal any actual votes.
Also, Ben should be completely ashamed and embarrassed after that cooking thing. The other housemates must feel and think the same too as it appears they just feel the need to baby him all the time. If anyone can't see anything wrong with him then there's a major issue, I think. He is a 30 year-old grown man for goodness sake! He was all like "oh...well...I guess I'm going to have to learn how to cook if I'm to survive in here...in the Big Brother house" ... um, HOW ABOUT SURVIVING IN REALITY?! That whole scene both in the bedroom and then him having to have Mikkayla show him how to cut a bloody carrot speaks wonders. I mean, I just don't understand how people like that can survive full-stop, let alone live their normal lives? I mean, I say this in the nicest way possible but surely he'd have to have some sort of problem in his head? It's just not normal and there really isn't an excuse for it unless he has a disability. He was even talking like a child! To compare, it's one thing for Bradley last year to be "mummied" while in the house, but this is a 30 year-old guy who's needing more "mummying" than Bradley ever did! It's just bizarre.
What makes this even worse is that we saw Ben act like this 7 year-old in that one scene, then basically in the very next segment, there he was putting on this totally different personality in the quiz game?!
He is so awkward to watch in this house now and it's making me really uncomfortable.
But apart from all that, t'was a decent episode again! They're definitely getting better with including a lot more conversations and real stuff from the house as opposed to gimmicks.
....I didn't bother with Confidential.
