Day 30

8:46am: Alice is teaching Ollie some basic tasks. Terri asks that Dixie move the washing because the dog piddled further down the garden. Dixie says no, but eventually agrees to do so. Ollie doesn’t really want to sit and stay this morning, and Alice says ‘no’ to Ollie numerous times.

Rory and Ben play a prank on Terri saying that Ollie pissed inside the house and get Terri to clean it up. Dixie comes to the diary room. She asks Big Brother for some rope to make a clothes line in the backyard. Big Brother tells her she already has drying facilities inside the house. Dixie says she wants to leave because she is sick of washing. Big Brother asks her if she really wants to leave. She says absolutely. She walks towards the door and Big Brother tells her that will not take her to the outside world. She walks back into the house.

Renee is putting pegs onto her face. She has in excess of twenty on there, and then Terri joins in the fun by putting as many as possible onto her arm. Nobbi tells her to shake her arm and eventually hits her arm so she gets hurt as the pegs fall off.

12:31pm: Dixie is having a shower. Rory comes into the bathroom and notices that she is crying, and Dixie asks him to leave. Rory says that she knows where to find him if she needs him. Outside, Ben is giving Travis some technique advice for doing simple weights.

Some of the housemates are getting lunch ready – Brigitte tells Rory to get out of the kitchen and Rory fires back telling her that he can only smell ‘bimbo’ on her breathe.

2:29pm: Big Brother calls all the housemates to the diary room. He tells them that two weeks ago he introduced a silent fine system in reaction to the constant swearing in the house. He tells the house that these fines have cost the house $82,000. Big Brother tells the housemates that they need to be more respectful of each other in the house. He tells them that any action deemed inappropriate by Big Brother will result in a strike, and three strikes will see a housemate evicted. Big Brother tells them that the swearing must now be curbed back – and a failure to do so might result in being evicted from the house.

2:51pm: The daily show introduces us all to the vending machine for the first time. Prized possessions can be purchased from the machine with coins given to the housemates by Big Brother. Housemates are torn between getting photos for Ben or getting Brigitte’s runners back. They decide to get the photos for Ben. She goes and get them for him and has also been able to get chocolate. Ben shows his photos around.

4:06pm: Nobbi and Rory are talking to Brigitte. Brigitte thinks that everyone is mean to her in the house. Rory says that she said that she hoped the boys died. She says she doesn’t like Rory’s personality, but Nobbi is just ok.

Bianca spots Ben looking at his photos a bit later. He says he is missing them all, and that its disappointing that there isn’t one of his dad in the photos given to him.

7:32pm: Travis is getting his haircut by Nobbi. Nobbi is cutting it all off, with patches of his scalp visible in certain areas. Nobbi cracks up – and Travis likes it. Ben can’t believe he likes it, saying he thinks it’s quite good. Alice can’t believe that he let them do it.

8:23pm: Terri is talking to Ollie saying that it’s rough in the house sometimes. She says the boys are ok sometimes though. She says her first week was bad and she thought she was going to die. The boys laugh that the poor dog will have to listen to everyone. Later, Travis talks to Ollie saying that she likes Brigitte but she is not as loyal as he thought she might be. Travis says that Dixie is also inappropriate in her behaviour towards him.

Nobbi tells Ollie that Terri is a bit wrinkly. He says that Dixie doesn’t know what she is – she can snap and has a short temper. Dixie tells Ollie that it’s been ignoring her for the past couple of days – she wonders what she did to Ollie. She wants a second chance. Dixie says that she doesn’t like Terri because she has smelly feet. Brigitte talks to Ollie as tells Ollie that she hates Rory. Ollie licks Brigitte and makes her laugh. She wonders if Ollie would get angry if someone took away his bed and all his possessions. She play fights a bit with Ollie.

Day 29

11:57am: Renee is moving her doghouse across the backyard with the help of Terri and Nobbi. Terri guides Renee into Travis’s doghouse. Inside, Bianca is telling Rory that she has found a good spot. Rory says that that Bianca should cuddle him at nighttimes. Bianca says that Renee likes the cuddles that he gives her.

12:41pm: Big Brother gives Pizza and cokes to the housemates who are out of the competition. Travis doesn’t give up, but says that the prize better be good. The housemates no longer in the task sit down and eat the pizza.

Travis gets set to go to the toilet down a drain. He tells Ben that he’s got stage fight though. After eight hours, Renee gives up and is furious with herself. She puts her jeans back on and walks away.

4:52pm: Five housemates are still in the doghouse after nine hours. Nobbi puts some water down on the grass and guides Alice start into it. Bianca and Travis are very quickly disqualified for opening up their doghouse.

5:17pm: Renee says that they didn’t give Brigitte enough credit for this task. Milo and Coffee is the next item to tempt people out of their doghouse. Brigitte says she has been waiting for Milo for months.

6:11pm: Brigitte wants to know if Ben is going to stay in there all week. Bianca says that Alice will beat everyone because she is a machine. Brigitte decides to quit. The housemates give her a clap.

7:21pm: Big Brother will serve up steak and beer for all housemates outside the doghouse, and Ben immediately quits. He says he needs food. Alice wins the doghouse endurance test. She struggles to stand up and everyone laughs their head off.

A puppy named Ollie is waiting in the diary room for Alice as her prize. Big Brother congratulates on winning the task. He tells her that she is the guardian of the dog for a week. She must demonstrate how well the guide dog puppy has been trained during the week. Alice names the puppy Ollie. The dog and Alice come out of the diary room and Ollie is scared with so many people. Alice explains what’s going to happen and how the dog will only be in the house for a week.

9:31pm: Nobbi and a few others are wondering who will have arguments over the dog in the house. Brigitte thinks it might be Bianca because she has a split personality. Bianca hears this and has it confirmed by Travis. She says she wishes they would say it to her face. Travis and Bianca sit and play with the dog, and Travis says that they were having bets on who would have arguments over the dog. Ollie tries to say hello to Dixie but Dixie doesn’t seem interested in the slightest. Bianca comes out and calls out Brigitte and Nobbi over the dog remarks. Terri is concerned that all the screaming will scare the dog.

Bianca comes back outside to have a discussion. Nobbi and Dixie say they too have a split personality. Bianca gets a bit fired up and Nobbi tries to calm her down. Renee tells her that everyone who has left this house has bitched to her in their video message. Bianca says she is obviously too honest.

9:59pm: Alice is teaching Ollie a few tricks in the backyard. Over at the kombi Travis and Nobbi are having a chat about how Nobbi loves to make some conflict in the house when it becomes a bit boring. Nobbi just laughs. Ollie pushes the diary room button with the help of Alice and goes to sleep inside it.

In the main bedroom, Rory and Renee share a cuddle before sleeping. Rory tells her not to get too frisky. The last shot is of Ollie sleeping away in the diary room.

Day 28 Eviction

The hosts come out and reveal a shock first up – tonight is a double eviction. As usual they then go through a quick wrap of the week that was. The hosts cross down to the eviction room. Terri still has rollers in her hair. They show Terri a front cover of ZOO magazine, which obviously has her on the front of it. Dixie says she loves being the laundry hand inside the house. Kyle then steps out of his hosting role and calls Nathan a dog for stinging Renee along. He can’t believe it. Big Brother reveals David, Nathan and Alice are in the bottom three. Nathan is absolutely speechless in there.

Back from the commercial break and it’s time to save one and put the fourth least popular housemate into the bottom three. Alice, as Head of Household, decides to save herself because she wants to be here for another week and have her 25th birthday inside the house. Big Brother then tells the house that Rory now slips down into the bottom three. Rory says it wouldn’t be an eviction show without him in the bottom three. Big Brother then tells the house that tonight is a double eviction. The nomination process will remain the same. Dixie is called to the diary room first. Dixie gives two points to Nathan because he has a shiny head. Dixie gives one point to Rory because he leaves his stuff lying around, he showers naked and he knows nothing about rugby league. Big Brother tells Dixie that in eight years they are the worst reason’s he has ever heard.

Travis is next to nominate, and sends two points to Dave because he hasn’t gotten to know him as much as the others. He gives one point to Nathan because Nathan sometimes ignores what he is saying. Brigitte is next to throw some points around, giving two points to Nathan because she thinks he is a fake ‘nice guy’. She gives one point to Rory because he was mean to her the other night after the secret task.

Ben is in the hot seat, and nominates David for two points because he is interruptive to others. He gives one point to Nathan because he isn’t as close to him as he is to Rory. Terri, still in rollers, gives two points to Nathan because she finds him quite creepy. She gives one point to David because they haven’t connected at all and he won’t let people tell their stories.

Bianca gives David two points because he doesn’t listen to her when she talks to him. She gives one point to Nathan because he takes up too much time with Renee and Bianca misses Renee. Nobbi gives two points to Nathan because the other two have been in the house for longer. He gives one point to David because he likes Rory better. Renee gives two points to Rory but she says she has no reasons. She says that her three best friends are up tonight and she wants to give two points to Rory, and one point to David. She seems to have a bit of a tear in her eye. Cut to a break and Renee is crying and getting mad with herself because she is crying on national television.

Alice has already voted off camera, and the boys return to the living room. Rory jokes that he knows what to do. Renee is still crying. Big Brother announces that the housemates have voted and two are about to go. Kyle tells them that the first evictee will be announced after the commercial break.

Jackie lets the housemates know that the time has come for Nathan to leave the house. Nathan says goodbye to everyone and leaves the house, telling Renee to keep her chin up. He comes out onto the stage and immediately wants to know why Kyle said his remarks. Instead we see whom Alice voted for. She gives four points to Nathan because she likes him least. She gives two points to David because Rory wants his birthday in the house. They talk about Nathan being a virgin, and Nathan says he is saving it until marriage. Kyle commends him for that. They get onto talk about Renee. He says he hasn’t dogged out Renee at all. Kyle tells him that they got it on a lie detector and Nathan just sighs. Nathan moves on and says that he hopes Renee takes the title out. He says that he thinks he was upfront with Renee inside the house and he was respectful towards her, saying that they should ask the other housemates if he has in fact a ‘dog’ to Renee.

It’s time for the second evictee to be revealed, and Kyle has the honour this time round. He tells David that he has been evicted, quick goodbyes all round and he too is out the door. Renee seems to start crying again. Rory is stoked to still be there, giving Nobbi a hug. David comes out onto the stage saying that he had a great time, would’ve liked it to have been a bit longer but that’s life. They show the other votes; David gives Rory two points and Nathan one. Nathan gives David two points and Rory one point. Rory gives Nathan two points and David one point. Back to the stage interview, David says that he didn’t want to use the cult card on night one and he wanted to tell people them too early. Jackie tells David that Ben didn’t like him, and David says that he’s just young and it doesn’t bother him in the slightest if someone doesn’t think he’s the most awesome person in the world.

Last but not least, it’s back to the house to check on the mood. Dixie wants some vodka. She says she thought it would be a double this week. Rory says he is glad to still be in the house. They talk to Renee and mock Nathan again. Kyle even suggests that Nobbi and Travis should get together. And lastly, they say that Terri looks great without the rollers before saying goodbye to the house.

Day 28

8:51pm: Rory is happy that he has survived the eviction and he gets to spend his birthday inside the house. Brigitte says that she hopes she doesn’t get another hand grenade. Terri says she doesn’t think they will give Brigitte another one.

Ben asks Nobbi whom he will miss more. He says he will miss both, but probably David a bit more. Nobbi asks Ben the same question, and then says, “Ben, admit it. You didn’t like David from day one?” Ben says that he didn’t, but the last week or so he had grown to like him a little bit more.

Renee comes to the diary room and says that she spent 80% of her time with Nathan and she says she will miss him. She can’t believe she has cried in the house, she didn’t even cry saying goodbye to her family. She says it’s crazy. Dixie says she is very glad Alice is still in the house. She says she thought Alice might have decided to save one of the boys and she is very glad that Alice chose to save herself.

11:12pm: Nathan is the first to leave a message. He says that he hopes everyone enjoys the time they have left in the house. Nathan tells Renee that she is unlike any chick that he has ever met before, and he is really looking forward to spending some time together outside of the house. Renee looks so excited and happy. The hand grenade is to make Big Brother breakfast for the indefinite future whenever the crow calls. They are not to sleep throughout the day. He gives it to Travis. David comes on and says that Terri might just win this whole competition and then says that Bianca perhaps needs to respect other people’s opinions a bit more. David’s hand grenade is to be the last person to bed, bring Big Brother a snack and sometimes read Big Brother a bedtime story. He gives this to Bianca.

11:36pm: Nobbi and Ben are talking in the backyard. Nobbi says that when it comes down to the crunch Nobbi doesn’t know whether he can count on Ben’s support, and Nobbi says at the moment it’s probably leaning towards the side of no. Ben says that he respects that, and Nobbi obviously remembers a lot of conversations. Nobbi says he simply can’t trust him at the moment, and if he had done something to piss Ben off, he would probably think that Ben would bitch behind his back rather than come over and talk to Nobbi about it.

Bianca thinks she is unlikable. She says that everyone who has been evicted has said bad things about her. She says in the outside world she is the bitchiest person and nothing like she is inside the house. Terri says that Nathan didn’t say bad things about her. Bianca says she can’t be someone she’s not, because that would be fake. But she is upset because no one seems to like the real Bianca.

Rory and Renee are talking in the bedroom. Renee doesn’t understand why she is the only person upset tonight. Rory tells her that that boy we’re the closest to her and that’s why she is the most upset.

Ben dishes Nobbi a bit in front of Travis and Nobbi for no apparent reason. In the bedroom, Terri says she is surprised that the evicted housemates haven’t been saying mean things to her. Renee wants Bianca to go to bed, but she says she has to be the last person up.

12:11am: The boys are again talking in the backyard. Nobbi and Ben are still arguing, Ben saying that Nobbi seems to think everything he says is correct. Rory and Nobbi both don’t think Ben is being nice when he called them assholes, simply because he thought that those boys are more confrontational. Nobbi says to Ben that he seems to be defensive by asking all of the boys their opinions of their earlier argument.

The girls in the bedroom are talking about David. Terri says that he would ask questions but then not really listen, or try to butt in during the answer was given. A little later, Nobbi tells Rory alone that he is the only guy he can fully trust.

Bianca and Travis come to the diary room. Big Brother tells them that since they will be bringing the midnight snack and breakfast, he has supplied them with some bread, milk and tea bags.

1:13am: Nobbi is talking to Big Brother in the kombi. He says that the eviction was very tough. He also says that the kombi joke must surely be over. Nobbi says the boys will stay outside with him, but he has done it for a month and he’s completely over it. It doesn’t work and Nobbi sleeps alone in the kombi for another night.

Bianca prepares the toast for Big Brother before she is allowed to go to bed. She brings the midnight snack into the diary room. Big Brother asks for a bedtime story. Bianca starts to tell a story similar to the tale of Big Brother 2008.

7:14am: The rooster is crowing and Travis must get up and prepare tea and toast for Big Brother every morning when this sound is heard. He makes the toast and enters the diary room. Big Brother suggests he use a little less butter tomorrow.

A little later a dog’s voice is played into the house. Terri is laughing her head off for some reason and Brigitte tells her to shut up because her voice is worse. Terri says it reminds her of the dogs at home. Renee, waking up, says she hates dogs. The dog sound just keeps playing and Renee wanders out to the living area.

Big Brother finally gets all housemates to assemble on the couch. Once there, Alice reads the rules of this week’s task. Each housemate must enter a ‘doghouse’ in an endurance test; the winner, which remains in the doghouse for the longest time, will win a great prize. Nobbi wonders how many people will win, and once he realises that there is only one winner he gets in his doghouse and immediately quits. Nobbi goes around kicking the doghouses for some time, while Renee, Travis and Brigitte have fun taking their houses for a walk.

8:09am: Travis wonders where Renee is in the backyard. Big Brother disqualifies Rory from the contest, and is told to bring his doghouse to the diary room. A little later both Nobbi and Rory play tricks by holding some of the doghouses down. Rory decides to give Travis and Ben a raining shower with the hose. Travis tells them to stop saying his roof is leaking. Brigitte and Terri are also very peeved up with the water, Brigitte yelling, “Stop it” continually. Rory finally stops, and Brigitte keeps complaining.

Big Brother tells the housemates that a can of coke is on offer as well as Jupiter bars for the next housemate that exits their doghouse. Dixie doesn’t last very long before temptation sets in, saying it’s the two favourite things in the whole world. Dixie says that she has these bars at least twice a day.

10:03am: Travis wants to play eye spy, but Alice reminds him that he can’t see anything. Travis and Brigitte get themselves into the shade, but Terri tries to help Brigitte and gets an absolute serve for hitting her roof. Nobbi gets leftover prawn heads and puts them into Travis’s doghouse. Travis can’t believe it and almost dry reaches.

Big Brother gives the housemates evicted from the challenge a hot breakfast. Renee almost decides to quit to get all the food. She wants to go inside but Bianca is in the way and doesn’t want to move. Renee pushes really hard into her house and then decides to find another way into the house.

Day 27

11:17am: Brigitte and Travis are practicing for the dance task. They can’t decide what way to face. Brigitte really doesn’t think it matters in the slightest. Nobbi tells Nathan that he’s just going to practice the dance a couple of times and then go back to bed. Nathan thinks that they have it nailed anyway. Nathan wonders how Travis would be in a work environment. Nobbi says maybe he switches on at work. Nathan suggests that perhaps he’s totally fake and has a low voice outside in the real world.

Travis is struggling with the whole dance routine. Brigitte says that he is so painful to work with. Travis says that Brigitte gets him worked up at times too, but he chooses not to raise the issue.

Dixie comes to the diary room. She says she hates dancing. She wants two homies from the street to perform the routine instead. She says she is going to embarrass the whole of the Aboriginal community because she has no style or groove. Big Brother suggests it’s all for the fun of it.

11:58am: Travis is complaining about Brigitte. Travis says he isn’t a good dancer, but he has stuck beside her through all her dramas. Terri says the same thing, saying that when she called her a witch last night, it was the last straw for Terri. Travis tells Ben that he is no longer going to take the crap from her.

Brigitte tells Big Brother that Travis makes her want to strangle him. She can only deal with him in small doses. She says that Travis is too positive all the time, saying that he is a bit like a doll with some string in the back and constantly being positive.

6:17pm: All the housemates are dressed for their dance and make their way to the stage. He tells the house that Big Brother doesn’t feel he’s the appropriate judge for this task, and therefore he has chosen some more judges. The plasma is switched on and you can see Jason Coleman and Matt Lee who are just outside the compound with a small audience watching on. A few tips from the judges and then it’s time to get underway.

6:21pm: Ben and Bianca are asked to dance first. Claps all round from the housemates after it, but the judges think that Ben was thinking a bit too much for their liking. They say that Bianca looked a little bit stunned. Dixie and Alice start their hip hop routine. They get right into it and are actually not too bad. Judges say that Alice really wanted to win it. They think they did a good job though. Nathan and Renee are up with the waltz. They laugh a bit through the performance. Judges really think it’s a great transformation for Renee who used to work with abattoir factories. David and Terri are up next and the judges say that they both had great enthusiasm and thank them on a job well done.

It’s time for disco fever and Brigitte and Travis take to the stage. Travis seems to struggle a little but the judges say they did very well. In fact, the judges say that Travis was the better performer because he let himself go and didn’t care what he looked like. The last team up is Rory and Nobbi doing the boy band routine. Judges say that Nobbi was born to be in a boy band, and they say that Rory looked terrified.

Big Brother tells the housemates to all go on stage for the results. The judges talk for a long time but finally they decide to pass the housemates in this week’s task.

Day 26

2:37pm: Dixie is in the diary room telling Big Brother that she is struggling to do the role of laundry hand. She says that the weight of her breasts, each weighing 4.3 kilo’s, are too heavy and it is straining her back. Big Brother suggests that she spread the workload out over the entire day.

She comes out and tells some people in the kitchen what happened but suggests to the other housemates that Big Brother simply said ‘so’ to her concern over her back. Bianca says that Big Brother is being mean, calling him an asshole. Bianca is called to the diary room, and Big Brother clarifies that he has been misquoted. Bianca leaves the diary room and later has an argument with Dixie because she misquoted Big Brother. Things get very, very heated with Dixie telling her not to get into her fights. Bianca storms into the bedroom and then walks into the bathroom, where she finds Nobbi, who is in lockdown; Bianca calls Dixie a cold-hearted bitch. At the dining table Dixie calls her psycho. David tells her that they have to remember she is only 18. David tells Nathan that Bianca is thinking about laughing, and they both have a laugh!

9:27pm: Alice has just won the Friday Night Games and declares that she will take Nobbi into the strategy room. Nobbi is absolutely stoked. Once inside the room she tells Nobbi that it’s Bianca, David or Nathan in the bottom three. Alice says that she likes Terri in the house and hope she doesn’t drop down into the bottom three. Alice says she can’t work out why Brigitte isn’t nominated; she constantly sleeps. Nobbi agrees with her, and then goes onto say that Renee will win it. Alice says that she thinks Renee has got to the point where she has nothing left to say that is new. Alice says she thinks Dixie might win it, because she has a lot of support out there. Nobbi again thanks Alice before they leave.

Bianca is talking about the pronunciation of her name. Brigitte asks Bianca and Terri why they say me and not why. Terri says that the average Australian probably use that word. Terri says that she thought that Brigitte was being sarcastic. Dixie says that Terri has totally won the argument. Terri suggests that Brigitte’s friends are all stuck up because they don’t use me instead of my. Brigitte calls Terri a witch.
