Day 17 Uplate

12:02am: Several people out in the backyard minding the task. The task is called “Damn the task.” Apparently housemates must use body parts other than their hands to cover leaks in a glassed fish tank. John, Dino, and Michael are outside. John asks the guys what they have against the Crystal ball, referring to the housemate with the same name. Dino says that when he doesn’t like someone’s personality he simply can’t go any further. Dino says he doesn’t get the obsession with the big booty. John says he loves it. It sounds like Anna in the background laughing at that one. Dino says that Krystal’s ass is too big for her size. Dino also adds that without makeup she isn’t that good, and thats why he thinks she does herself up everyday. Michael says that she does wear makeup all day everyday. Dino says she looks different without it. Anna wonders if the guys would like her more if she wore makeup everyday. Dino says that Tilli looked like a boy without makeup! Anna says “Lets hope she’s not watching!” Dino says that Claire is lovely, down to earth and everything. Michael says he wouldn’t pursue a relationship with anyone in the house. Someone asks what about Dave. Michael says that he would have more hope than the girls. Michael says he can at least sit and speak to Dave. They move onto Elise. Dino says “C’mon, she’s from Sydney, she’s got the Asian background.” Michael interrupts and tells John that he doesn’t go for Asians. John calls him a racist bastard! They ask Anna who she likes the most out of the guys, excluding the guys out there. So it’s between Jamie, Gaelan, Ashley and Dave. She says at first she would’ve said David, but she says Jamie now. Mike cuts in. Comm break.

12:13am: Anna is saying it’s time to change the people for the task. She says that the lights are still on in the bedroom. Dion suggests that whoever comes should grab some food and then they’ll be more alert etc for the task. Karen has come out for the task, and they start sorting out how they will swap over. She is swapping with Dino. All of a sudden they let a heap of water out and everyone is yelling. Dino and Karen then use their hands to hold the water in. I’m pretty sure thats against the rules. Anyway, she finally gets set up so her feet are over the holes. It seems like it could be very uncomfortable for Karen, I don’t think it’s the same way Dino was doing it. Anyway, she’s in place now. Karen tries to get more comfortable and in the process loses a heap more water. The guys were just saying they only lost a centimetre. Camilla has changed over flawlessly with Michael on the other side of the tank. Karen complains that her legs aren’t long enough. The guys don’t think that Karen will be able to last very long. They consider waking Gaelan up. John thinks it’ll be a long task. He wonders who’s asleep. Karen says Dave is trying to, Claire is asleep, Ashley is snoozing, and Krystal is also asleep. It seems you can use your hands, apologies. Karen says that Katie would struggle doing this side of the tank. Anna says that she and John will do the shift after the next one. Gaelan and Ashley, or Gaelan and David will take the next one. John says “Imagine we all fall asleep out here and wake up and the tank is empty.” Anna says that there should always be at least one more out here ready to take over if something happens. Karen says it’s not as cold as she thought it would be. Comm break.

12:29am: Gaelan has come out and it seems John has left. They wonder how long Dino and Michael did their stint for. Camilla thinks they might have done an hour and a half. Camilla has had enough already and she had the easy side. Gaelan says that he just needs to go to the toilet. Michael shows everyone outside that he has a dollar coin. John thinks it’s against the rules to have money, but the others don’t agree. Mike cuts in. Uplate update, then into the bedroom where Dino and Anna are lying down. They contemplate when the task may end. Dino says it’ll go for more than 24 hours. They say that the Wednesday discussion may see an end to it though. But then they suggest a Friday finish, Dino calling it “Friday Night Live.” Anna says she hates this task. Anna asks Dino who he’d prefer; Ash or John. They both look up several times to see who is awake etc. Ashley is standing not that far away from them, and when Dino points this out to Anna, she says “So it’s Ash then?!” Mike just cuts insaying that Anna just told Dino that he was sexy. It wasn’t the case. Comm break.

12:44am: Ashley and Dino are talking on the bed now. Dino explains to Ashley what happened when Dino and Karen changed over. Ashley says he’s going to head outside in the hope he can get use to the temperature. We cut outside at this moment. Gaelan says he is glad he bought warm clothes. John says he didn’t bring any trackies or slippers. Camilla says she loves her slippers. Karen wonders how many days they’ve been locked up. About 21 in total, 16 in the house proper. Ashley appears and tells the other guys who is asleep etc inside. Camilla thinks the time has gone so quickly. John says it’ll feel like you’ve been overseas for ages because you’ll have no idea of anything. John talks about how they’ll all be famous. Camilla says that people won’t like her. John agrees, saying that people won’t like any of them. Karen says she feels rude with her legs spread and she can see Camilla’s face between them. Gaelan tells them that when the girls go, they should send out the crew that is taking over next, in this case John and Anna. Dave has come outside as well. Karen wonders if they can put a top on the tank so the water doesn’t evaporate. Cut to the couch, where Katie is sleeping. Jamie is there as well. So cute with their heads side by side. Back outside though. Camilla says she thinks she is falling in love with Karen. Dave wonders whether Tilli and Elise will be home by now or still doing appearances. Someone says that they will definately still be living out of a hotel. Camilla says she wants to ski in Canada, because she has heard it’s really great. Gaelan says he would love to go to the snow, but the price puts him off. He says he ends up going to Bali for half the price. Comm break.

1:02am: Dave and Gaelan have taken over doing the task. Ashley is watching on, keeping them company. Dave talks about his time over in Europe. He says he had heaps of fun over there. John comes out and talks about the task tactics with the guys for a bit. Ashley says that he is wearing heaps and it’s still cold. They talk about how the weather is just going to keep getting colder now. Dave says he feels as if he’s pushing the tank towards Gaelan, but they all agree that it must weigh a heap. Anna has joined them out there. Uplate update, then back out to the task. Gaelan looks over at the hottub and makes mention of all the steam rising from it. Dave asks Gaelan whether he needs to go left or right more to cover the hole. He tells him, and then it’s off to a comm break.

1:16am: Back outside. Gaelan and Ashley are trying to figure out the time. Gaelan thinks they had dinner around 6pm. They try to figure out the time according to the moon, but Anna lets them know that the Moon moves it’s position all the time. John wonders who was doing the task when it started to get dark. A heap of names flying all the place. John thinks that it’s about 1am now, which is damn close, and he says that it averages a 50 minute shift, and about 6 hours to go through everyone. They say that Michael and Dino seem to go the longest. Camilla comes out and suggests that people who are awake should do it, and not wake others up. Basically everyone disagrees though. They say you should stick to routine otherwise people will just sleep all night. They make fun of how this much look when people ask them what they did on Big Brother “Oh yeh, just filled holes.” Anna says that everything out here is starting to stink. Ashley says that it’s more like a bit of fresh air appearing amongst the farting. Someone mentions the word ‘cameras’, and someone else very quickly tells them to “don’t talk about that.” Someone mentions Jeff Farmer, a Freo footballer. Ash and Gaelan both like him. Anna wonders if it’s a footballer! Ash climbs on top of Anna on the hammock, and says he’s not staying, he just needed to fart! Anna wonders if they could put a blanket into the hole and call it a night. Comm break.

1:33am: Back with the task. Anna says she should be considered one of the guys now. Ashley starts singing the boots song from Dukes of Hazard. Anna wants him to sit still for a bit! They start talking about places where they don’t want to do farts, but sometimes they just do. Someone says the gym is a great example. They move the topic onto the water level, and Ashley suggests they get the hose to keep it filled up. We cross back to the couch where Jamie and Katie are still sleeping. Katie stirs, but settles back down. Back outside, the guys are saying that their hands are dead. Gaelan says it would be good if their were fish in it. It would give them something to concentrate on. Dave says you would wait till a fish was just hovering over the hole and let go of the hand! John suggest you put a penis in there and get a semi, and then someone suggest getting the ball sack in there. The boys suggest they should time their farts to see how long inbetween each one is. Back to the couch, Jamie and Katie are still cute, and still asleep. Comm break.

1:49am: Gaelan says that once you get in position and relax, you could go for hours. John agrees. They can’t believe how the food makes them fart so much. They realise that the pool is even steaming. Dave and Gaelan both say they will go to bed after this. Dave says he’s not looking forward to getting a wake up call though. John says he’s tempted to sleep in the hammock, but then he says it’s more of a nightwatchmen position. Cut back to Mike for an Uplate moment. Back to the task, they’ve just changed over. Anna is lying down, John has the other side. Ashley asks Anna to come over to the hammock. Gaelan and Dave head inside and tell them they’ll wake up Jamie. Comm break.

2:03am: Ashley is singing. At least he’s making them laugh! David has gone into the sauna, and Camilla stands at the door and talks to him. She says she doesn’t want to go home, but she’s kind of excited and feels she might be going home. Dave says he has a feeling who will go, even before nominations were announced, and the person he thinks will go is nominated, so he’s sticking with his theory. They both agree that Karen would be happy to go. Dave asks whether Michael will be around when she gets out. Michael must be a boyfriend. Camilla says that he won’t be happy with the flirting with Dave at the start, but hopefully he can get past all that and give Camilla a go. Camilla says that he’s great, because she didn’t even think of cheating on Michael at all when she was with him, which she says it’s a first for her. Mike cuts in for a competition. Back to the sauna now. Camilla is still talking about Michael, the outside boyfriend, who she says is shy. They move onto talking about Dave’s friends now. I don’t quite get the convo yet. I think they are talking about who they put down as family or friends who they could invite to the evictions. Anyway, moment is ruined when we cut to a comm break.

2:14am: Jamie has made his way outside, Ashley is still there, and obviously Anna and John are there. Ashley is making some joke, saying he smashed 14 beakers and 7 measuring cups or something in a sceince class. He says the teacher went beserk at him for costing the school soo much money. He says they tried to get him to pay $160. He says he jumped on his desk one day and flashed a moonie at the teacher. He says he calmed down in Year 11 because he had a girlfriend. Cut back to the sauna, Dave and Camilla still talking. Camilla says she has some friends who do some modelling. Dave says he wants to get back to his farm and be happy. He wants to be an example for others guys. Camilla mentions the suicide rate that Dave mentioned ages ago. Cut back out to the Ashley show who is still talking. He says that a lecturer found Ash and some mates having a few beers, and he offered him a beer, but the lecturer said he couldn’t because he wasn’t allowed. Ashley says he passed the subject though. Anna wants to stop, but John doesn’t so they continue. Ash and Anna have a bit of a friendly argument. Anna says her feet are in pain. Jamie and Ashley talk tactics for their stint. Back to the sauna, Camilla says that she makes strange eye contact with someone in the house. Dave says he knows what she means. Camilla says she is used to guys taking liberties like give her a cuddle or anything. She says the closest is when Gaelan has patted her on the back a few times, but thats it. She says the girls make up for it though. She says that Dino has cuddled her twice perhaps. At 2:23am, Dreamworld says goodnight.

Day 16 Uplate

11:25pm: Dino and Ashley are out in the gym. Dino says that there are people here who he doesn’t want here. Ashley agrees. Ashley says that he’s done three sets, and it’s Dino’s turn now. Ashley says that at the end of the day it’s a game. Dino says that he never looks at it as guys versus girls. He says he doesn’t hate the girls, but the girls are taking everything too seriously and thats why they are being nominated. Ashley says that they bitch and moan all day long. Ashley says that the microphones piss him off. Dino says it’s the rules though, and also says that no one has had a fine today. Ashley says that he finds it easy to relate to three girls, and all the guys. Comm break.

11:36pm: After a long chat to the two evictees, we finally head into the bedroom where Camilla, Karen and Krystal are there. Camilla tells Karen that the reason she was nominated was probably because she said she wanted to leave last week. Krystal says it could be because of the disputes with Anna and Dino. Karen says she thinks they voted for her for sure. Camilla wonders what happened with Dino. There seems to have been an argument with some rolling of the eyes after Dino’s win of FNL. Camilla says she didn’t do it, and if she did, she would’ve made it much more obvious. Camilla says that she finds the Friday Night thing just isn’t her. Camilla says that Anna loves it. Krystal says that she’s not tough enough for it. They wonder why they haven’t got a task yet. They talk about how Monday has normally been the task day. Camilla wonders how last Monday went after the nominations, as she wasn’t here. Karen says that just because people were nominated one week doesn’t mean they will be nominated every week. Krystal says that it was good Dino could take himself off the block tonight and not put anyone else back up. Cut to the gym, Michael and Dave are talking. Dave says he’ll have a conversation with Dino about something when he’s ready, but he has to get a few things sorted in his head first as to where to draw the line. Comm break.

11:49pm: Still out in the gym with Dave and Michael. Dave is saying that heaps of people think that farmers whinge for nothing. Michael gives him some pointers on doing some weights, then counts as he does them. Michael says he’s finding it more and more comfortable….and we cut to the bedroom. Katie has joined the mother/daughter combo on one bed. Karen says that Camilla is going to go and hang out with them in Batemans Bay. Krystal says that Camilla will come and think that mum is a neat freak. Krystal says she thought she would be in here, but she has relaxed a bit. Katie talks about how bad her mum is, obsessed with cleaning. They talk about Enyo stuff (I have no idea!) They say it’s good for the environment though. Krystal asks whether Katie knows heaps of words from songs as she sings the Enyo jingle. She says she doesn’t, only TV ads and all those kind of things. Comm break.

12:05am: Krystal says it’s such an accomplishment to be able to sit here in this house with her daughter. Karen says that she won’t realise what they’ve done until they are home watching it on TV. Gaelan, sitting on the base of the pole just inside the bedroom, says that they’ll be able to watch themselves every night for ages. Gaelan says that he forgets that it’s getting aired. Krystal says she worries about how she eats. Karen tells Gaelan that he should never take her daughter out for meal. Katie chirps in with “My mum said that I was that fat when I popped out that Mum said that had she not seen me come out herself, she wouldn’t have thought that I was her’s.” Krystal says that mum had her sunbaking from the moment she was born. She has a photo of her sunbaking when she was a fat toddler, only a few weeks old, and she was already black. Katie goes “Were you black?” They clairfy it and say brown! The girls start talking about sunbaking, all admitting that they get bored doing it quite easily. Karen says she reads godd mags and stuff. Krystal says she can’t wait until she gets out so she can get an iPod. She says her sister is 14 and can work one, so she should be able to. Gaelan says he would sometimes rather just go to the beach by himself and just think a bit. Krystal agrees. They start talking about Half Moon Bay, Dino saying that his mate has a boat house along there. They get into a disagreement about whether you can actually own them, because they are heritage listed, but Gaelan eventually gives in. Gaelan says they are so good, but no power or anything. Karen says she could live in one of those. Big Brother calls Michael to the diary room. They all says ‘batteries’. Jamie says he’s always listening to songs. Krystal asks if he has an iPod. He says he does, but he now can’t be away from it, he says he plugs it into his car, takes it with him when he gets out of the car, plugs it into his stereo once he gets home. Comm break.

12:18am: Still in the bedroom. Krystal asks Jamie to tell them a good story. Jamie says that they just need a topic and they’ll have heaps of stories. Krystal suggests making up a story. Dino and Gaelan start talking about something on TV or something. Krystal suggests starting a story by each person adding a sentence to the story as they go. She says you can make it rude or whatever. Katie says that these are really cool, referring back to a mate she used to do this with. Camilla starts with “I want a sweet chilli twister from KFC.” jamie tells her you can’t start like that! Katie starts with “I went to the deli and bought a goat.” Karen takes the next sentence. They only get three sentences in before Gaelan changes the game. He tells John to start telling a story, and he’ll keep throwing words at him that he has to incorporate into the story. It’s actually pretty funny, and John does a great job of incorporating ‘helicopter, 17 ice cream cones, carpet, footy’ into the story. Gaelan has a shot, and while not as good as John, he also succeeds at the story telling. Comm break.

12:34am: Michael is talking to Dave and John. Michael says the girls are upset because he bought up the fact that the girls were upset by Dino’s behaviour, to Dino. He says that he can see why they are mad, but it’s not what he set out to do. He says the girls said it in front of 6 people, it was half the house. Dave says that he likes to tackle an discussion with someone by himself, and not have others do it for him. Michael says he just thought he would let the person it concerned know about it, and he says that if thats playing the game, then he’s guilty of that. He says he’s happy with that. Mike cuts in, and we finally get back out to the gym. John explains the game going on in the bedroom. Jamie has joined the boys as well, but soon walks out into the backyard. Michael helps Jamie out doing a new exercise. Michael says they haven’t even been going that hard tonight. Dave reckons he’ll be sore tomorrow. Comm break.

12:45am: John and Jamie are talking in the gym. John says he wouldn’t give his time of day to some of the people in here. Jamie says he tries to find the best in everyone. John agrees, and he says he gets on with everyone. But they both say that they are judgmental. Mike cuts in, and then we cut to the sauna with David, Ashley and Michael. Michael is saying he fought tooth and nail to get into this house, but he’s got issues going on outside the house that he is concerned about. Ashley says that lots of people have issues going on outside the house as well. Ashley says he made the right decision coming in. He says the easy way out is to go to the diary room and say goodbye. Michael says that quitting though. Ashley doesn’t see it as quitting though. He says that if someone wakes up one day and thinks that it’s time to go, then they should go. But he says that while he knows Dave’s issue on the outside and obviously his own, he doesn’t know Michael. He asks him if it’s too do with family, but Michael doesn’t want to get into it. He says he’s happy to discuss it when they are out. Michael says it’s been bought on because he knows he’s in here for another two weeks. He says that he thought he would be out much quicker. Ashley has gone. Michael says that he thought that there would be a lot more opinions in the house, and a lot more tension. Mike cuts in again. We rejoin the sauna, Ashley having returned. David says he would have rathered come into the house without having the gay thing hanging over his head. He feels he has to educate the public about gay people. Comm break.

1:03am: Jamie and John are still talking in the gym. Jamie says he has a mate who they never invite anywhere, but he always gets wind of their parties etc. He says the guy comes out with the most outrageous statements, and he’s always unsure if he’s doing it for fun or whether he genuinely believes it. He says that he just can’t win, so he gives up. Jamie says he’ll know exactly who he is now too. He says he has a heart of gold when he’s by himself, but when he has a group he just has to be the best at everything. Jamie says that the guy hasn’t had a girlfriend for 2-3 years. A fair bit of bleeping going on now in this convo. He says that the guy is mega loyal though, always there for ya if you have girl issues. John says that he has heaps of friends exactly like that. Jamie says that he has been a great mate really, but came from nowhere. A friend of a friend of a friend as such. John asks him if he has to hold his touch a lot in here. Jamie says so often this has happened in here. Jamie says that when he’s drunk he gets to say whatever he wants, while when sober he’s considered as a ‘sensitive guy.’ He says the next day he always regrets his actions though. He says he pissed inside a mates car three times once, and the mate sat in it. John laughs! Into the couch, Anna and Dino are there. Dino wonders why they haven’t got a task yet. Anna wonders whether it was Monday or Tuesday last week. Comm break.

1:23am: Anna and Dino still on the couch. Dino says he walked into the bedroom before and heard his name, and he just thought he would keep walking and lie on the bed to make things awkward. He says that Michael telling him about Karen’s concerns made things a bit exciting earlier tonight. Anna says that they kicked John out of a conversation earlier today, and Anna though it was a girls convo, so she walked in and pretended to change her top so she could hear it. Dino says that Krystal acted like a little kid, and he told her that she seemed childish and they were just trying to have a conversation. Anna asks how it worked out with Michael. Dino says Michael feels bad about telling him about it. Dino goes onto explain that the girls thought that the games night was too rough. Big Brother tells Ashley not to touch the plasma. Anna laughs. Comm break.

1:35am: Stil with Anna and Dino. Katie says goodnight to them as she passes by. Anna says she is very tired too. Dino and Anna sit there in silence for a bit, so we cross to the action of the bedroom. It seems they are back playing the game they tried to play right at the beginning of the night. Mike cuts in and tells them to turn the lights out. BB does exactly that. They seem to settle down and say goodnight to each other. Anna yells out to Krystal wondering whether she is sleeping with her mum. She then realises she could’ve just asked Karen who was basically right near her. Claire yells out goodnight to everyone. Back out to the gym, Ashley has come out to John and Jamie in the gym, retelling his story about touching the plasma. They agree that isn’t worthy of a $5000 fine. They talk about a dot they all seem to stare at in the bedroom. Dino comes out, and they tell him they were just talking about how competitive he is. Back to the bedroom, Katie is talking to Karen. Katie is saying that they’ll find out soon whats going on with Katie and Jamie. She says if she starts coughing they’ve broken up. Jamie comes into the bedroom, saying that they turned the lights out so they could concentrate on John and his indepth conversation. Dave comes out from the sauna. Karen says they had a really good day today. At 1:45am, Dreamworld says goodnight.

Day 12 Uplate

11.08pm – A group of housemates are in the backyard having a discussion. Well actually its Anna with most of the guys and no other girls. Mike Goldman tells us the segregation between the girls is now worse than ever.

11.14pm – The boys are throwing ducks around. Meanwhile inside Claire is doing a song and dance show. She shakes her booty around for a bit and gets the girls to brainstorm things she’s been doing in the house for a dance. Claire asks what the nipples song is… no one knows? Krystal says she did drama in high school. Anna joins them inside and jokes around with Claire about dancing moves. Krystal says she’s a bit of an exhibitionist and is great on stage. She tells the others that a lot of comedians are really dark off-stage and depressed. Katie has some of John’s moisturiser and the girls pass it around. They want salt and vinigear chips.

11.20pm – Claire finds chopsticks in the kitchen. She says “lets play a game with the chopsticks!” and immediately drops them on the floor. She then explains: the game is to pick them up without moving any other chopsticks. Some of the girls get down on the floor to play.

11.24pm – Gaelan is slicing up some pineapple and John and Ashley immediately jump in. They all say its great. Clown noises immediately play. It’s Ashley and Claire. Dino screams at Ashley on purpose “GO ASH GOO”. While getting into his costume Ashley’s underpants come down and everyone gets a glance at his bum. Ashley is very behind. They stand up on the platform and Ashely starts gagging from the clown face powder for quite a while and the others laugh at him.

This is Big Brother. Clowns Ashley and Claire, Big Brother wants to be entertained with the tightrope.

There is quite a delay as the clowns tie up their shoelaces. They open their umbrellas but Ashley’s is broken. Claire gets up on the platform which extends across the pool first but is very unstable.. she wobbles on her shoes and bends down while everyone calls out. Ashley, still on the side of the pool jumps up and down. Claire gets back on the side so Ashley gives it a try… he can’t go very far… they edge a bit on and suddenly Ash falls in the pool… the housemates are in hysterics. Ashley climbs along, dragging Claire with him by their cord. Claire swings backwards, losing her balance throwing her arms in the air to save herself, but its too late – she has to jump in the pool to keep from falling. The other housemates can’t stop laughing.

They get out and have to try again – this time they go over really fast and doing really well. Ashley is about to make it over to the other side when Michael (the insider) knocks the bar and Claire falls in the pool, dragging Ashley with her.

This is Big Brother. Big Brother was… entertained.

Everyone cheers. Michael was unsuccessful this time round. Dino sneaks away with one of the clown’s shoes. Claire and Ashley are left to clean up and Ashley must retrieve part of an umbrella from the bottom of the pool.

11.34pm – Ashley keeps finding peices of umbrella at the bottom of the pool. He searches for his clown nose.

11.39pm – Michael is actually sabotaging the task! Who would have thought? He’s stolen some balloons from the backyard and is in the toilet cutting small holes in them so they can’t be filled.

11.42pm – Camilla wants some candy or chocolate. Jamie starts talking about Tim Winton, the Australian author, which gets Camilla really excited. Jamie has the feeling his clown noise will be played soon, either now or at 4.00am in the morning. He organises with Katie how they will do balloon popping if BB asks (Michael is still in the bathroom slashing the balloons).

Camilla explains she had a dream she was in an alternate house and a girl called her an ugly cow. Camilla threw something at her and called her a bitch. The house was in a weird country – it was next to a mosque and they did a service.

David looks at his photo of a loved one for quite a long time.

11.49pm – Michael is now trying to sneak the balloons back outside in a plastic bag which also contains rubbish. He puts the rubbish in the outside rubbish bin but leaves the lid open. He then walks up to the bowl containing the balloons and quickly mixes the slashed balloons with them. He slowly walks back inside but looks really suspicious.

11.55pm – Back from the commercial break and Michael is back in the toilet slashing balloons with scissors.

12.00am – Camilla is bitching about the lack of cleaning going on in the house, and taking dishes to the kitchen after eating. It shits her that everyone has fake modesty about getting along – “its just a big wank”. Camilla says she doesn’t like conflict but everything is a bit of a pisstake in the house – they just want to make fun of everything and some aren’t very mature. Camilla adds that even though Katie jokes around you can still have a good mature chat with her.

Meanwhile Michael has found a new way to sabotage the task: throwing the props over the wall.

In the bedroom Elise says her topic didn’t come up with family discussion, but David’s didn’t either. Michael has gone into the toilet again… but this time he’s actually going to the toilet! The bedroom chat moves to in-out house philosophies and altering behaviors in the house. Michael comes over and David says “fuck I love your cardigan”. They then talk about Anna versus Krystal. They all agree the two are the head of their groups and have equal power – although Krystal slightly more becuase she’s in charge of the kitchen now. Camilla says Anna is more “look at me”.

12.16am – Ashley talks with Camilla about a person who has the surname Cox. He says he has two middle names. Feeds cut away because of the outside-people rule.

12.19am – Ashley is talking about drugs so there is a lot of beeping going on. He says he is not addicted to alcohol at all. Feed cuts to the living room where most of the housemates are playing the chopsticks game Claire introduced earlier. Jamie commentates.

12.30am – Michael is cooking sardines on the BBQ but is having trouble opening the tins – he curses the can opener out. Dino needs to give him a hand. He continues having problems for the next few minutes. Meanwhile Karen is in the bedroom explaining she’s worried about the outside world’s perception of her – but Camilla says thats the same with everyone in the house. Ashley says they could throw in a double eviction anytime. Ashley is unsure if this week will be a double eviction though. David asks Camilla how she fits in with her friends. She says she is the Katie of her group outside the house.

12.45am – Karen is talking about her boyfriend (Krystal’s father) when she was 16 – they were going out for about 3 years but there were about 6 other guys Karen saw. He cheated on her a few times so she’d cheat on him to get back. Karen became pregnant with Krystal when she was 16. She was not happy. She moved to Byron Bay to live with her sister and found out she was pregnant while there.

Mike Goldman jumps in and says its a boring conversation and they will play an uplate update – Oh PUUULEEZ Mike don’t insult our intelligence!

12.50am – Back to Karen: There is talk of having another kid – Karen and her boyfriend decided not have another child. She is glad she didn’t when she looks back now. Camilla says she has a friend who had an abortion because she would fall pregnant just looking at some one. Karen says she had her tubes tied after having Krystal. Karen says she could never give advice to some one about abortions or having a child. Elise comments Karen must have been very healthy and furtile.

Karen carried a child for some one (possibly her sister). David says at some stage he’s going to have to ask his sister for an egg or to carry a child.

1.00am – Karen is talking about a child he knew who was ugly and it affected his life severely. Camilla says she was an ugly child but turned out fine… Karen disagrees she was ugly but Camilla is adament about proving she was ugly – she pulls out photos and shows them. Camilla says she breaks out with pimples under stress. Krystal and Karen talks about an episode of Doctor Phil which had girls who wanted to marry old millionaires. Can’t have cross promotion of another show – feed is cut.

In the kitchen Jamie is talking about his relationship with Katie. He says if he hangs out with Katie all the time it will change the dynamics of the house – which is what he told Katie. He doesn’t know where he sees it going just yet. Ashley and Michael understand. In the bedroom Ashley is looking for his shoe (Dino hid it earlier). The girls quietly find and raid the candy out of Michael’s bag and he runs over to stop them but is too late. Jamie runs over with his pants down again. Krystal and Anna have one last raid to check for any candy left over.

1.15am – Jamie and Katie are snuggling up together in bed. Katie kisses Jamie on the cheek and says “yeah you were a little bit different”. She has her hand on his neck and slowly strokes it. He looks a little freaked out. Jamie relays whats happened earlier with Ashley (which was beeped earlier) – Ashley got very defensive when talking about steroids, saying they change your personality. This got Jamie very annoyed, and tells Katie he has studied pyschology and human movement so he knows better. He wanted Ashley to just shutup about it, and got very frustrated.

Katie: Because he might be two slices short of a loaf?

Jamie explains he gets annoyed sometimes in gyms when people question his methods when he knows what he’s doing. He also hates it when people steal ideas from him – for example at home he’ll have a joke and …

David and Dino’s clown noise sounds. David yells ‘shit!’ and they run outside Dino is only in his underpants. David is behind Dino in getting costume on. They get on their platform and the HMs laugh at Dino’s appearance. Michael calls him the Bosnian Burrito.

This is Big Brother. Clowns David and Dino. Big Brother wants to be entertained by balloon popping.

Michael is all smiles. David picks up the first balloon and blows and nothing happens… he says “what the fuck”. Michael laughs. Dino tries a balloon and gets it a little blown up, and pops it. He pops another one. David however is still stuck on his sabotaged balloon.

When we return from a commercial break Mike Goldman tells us Big Brother announced he was not entertained.

1.30am – Housemates in the bedroom talk about boys vs. girls. Krystal says they lived behind a woman who had 5 boys – they felt sorry for her. Dino says his ass is burning from using it to pop balloons just before. Krystal was going to comment he could damage his tailbone. He gets Tilli to feel his butt – its rock hard “like cement”. Dino jumps into bed with Tilli and Krystal and says he might want to have some variety tonight. Dino says John is “the funniest animal in the world”.

At 1.35am Dreamworld says goodnight.

Day 11 Uplate

11:19pm: I join Uplate a few minutes late. Lots of people in the kitchen, and lots of different conversations. Jamie is cooking something. Someone asks if they are cooked yet. Jamie says they aren’t, and Camilla asks them to turn the heat up higher. Launch into the song “Turn it up so high”. Cut to the bedroom because of the singing. Karen and Katie are on a bed. So is Krystal. Mike cuts in for a minute. Katie is wearing a “I love Frankston” t-shirt. They are talking about Ashley. Krystal says he talks about V8’s all the time. One of the guys say (I think it’s Dino) that he’s actually changed a fair bit in the past few days. Krystal says she likes people out at clubs who are not talking to anyone, because she can latch on and have their complete attention. Comm break.

11:30pm: Still in the bedroom. Katie is telling a story about a family they know. Karen asks Dino what the longest relationship he’s had. He says it was about a year, but he says it’s hard with school and work. He says that girls don’t realise that he has not time. He says when he goes out he trys to make the time with the girl really special, but then it could be a week, 10 days before he has time to see her again. Krystal says that when she has a guy, she is the type that see’s the person everyday, but then wants to ditch him on the weekends and go out with the girls. Dino says he thinks it ruins a relationship when early on you see the person everyday. He says at the 6 month stage you should move it up to seeing the person every single day. Krystal says her 3 longest relationships, a year, 8 months and 7 months, she saw the boy everyday. Dino says that guys get sick of it seeing them everyday. Krystal says not with her! Dave and Tilli join the convo. Dave says when he has someone he doesn’t want to spend a second apart. They start talking about how it’s only been 10 days. Katie says that they all feel so close. Dino disagrees, and he goes as far to say that he in fact doesn’t really know each other. Karen says that it freaks her out that people think they are so close to others when they aren’t. Dino says that just because you crack a few jokes, you don’t know people. Karen says in the outside world she has spent heaps of time with people and still doesn’t really think she knows the person. Dino says they should keep it in perspective. Katie says she puts herself out there because she wants to love everyone. Cut out to the boys in the kitchen, John, Asley, Gaelan and Michael. They talk about farts for a bit. Comm break.

11:46pm: Anna has joined the boys in the kitchen. John and Michael both think they’ve lost weight. Anna says she has had a hard day today. She starts doing push ups. Ashley joins her. They tell her that it’s a massive improvement on last time. Dino comes out to talk to them. Dino says that this house is a little too full on for him, and he never has any rest. Michael says that when he sits outside for some alone time, people think something must be wrong. Michael says that he can sit on his own for hours on end each day. Anna says she has the house to herself from 7am to 6pm at night each weekday. Anna says she is sorry if she cause any uncomfortableness for anyone today. The boys all thought of it as entertainment. Michael says if they show it on TV, you’ll see him and Ash in the back laughing and high fiving. John wonders whats going on in the bedroom at the moment. Dino says that they have raised the white flag for the moment and stopped their bitching. Dino says he had to leave because of Camilla, who he describes as far too full on. Dino says he just doesn’t want to bitch, or sit there listening to it. Michael is ‘losing it’ Dino thinks, as he keeps repeating “I’m Dino the Dinosaur.” We seem to have audio from the bedroom out in the kitchen. Back now. They are talking about Coco Pops. Anna says she always has a heap of variety for cereals. Uplate update. Back into the bedroom. Karen has just said that she lost her virginity with 3 other girls down in a barn when 4 blokes came into town or something. Comm break.

12:01am: Dino is cooking again. John is eating on the couch. Tilli is out in the kitchen now too. Lots of talking off camera by Michael. Jamie says he is damn bored. Anna says that they were massively bored for the two days in the revenge room. The boys wonder if they masturbated. Anna says she played bocce with stones. Michael is wondering if anyone has woken up with a boner. He says he hasn’t. Gaelan starts singing. John says he will have a bat one day. It seems no one has yet. John thinks he’ll be first. Gaelan says 14 years was his longest. Uplate update. Back into the bedroom we go. The girls are talking about their hair. Elise says she used to have extensions. Krystal seems to know a fair bit about extensions. Karen and Krystal says they got obsessed with eBay. Elise says it cost her $300 when she got it done. Krystal says it costs heaps in Sydney. Back to the kitchen. Big Brother calls Tilli to the diary room. The boys still seem to be talking about wanking off. John says he trys not to so he can save himself for the weekends. Michael laughs. Jamie and Katie are talking to, but it’s difficult to make out. Comm break.

12:19am: Living room. Almost everyone must be out there. No way in the world you can concentrate. A huge bleep over the words, and apparently a sound for the task came on at the same time. They seem very relaxed and in control as they get ready for the task. Tilli and Karen are doing this task. Big Brother tells them he wants to be entertained via the “Head duck”. It seems to be the worst, cause there are a few groans around. BB tells the housemates to stand back from the tank. Housemates say it’s pretty cold tonight. Mike cuts in and tells us that they have to get 6 apples from the tank in 60 seconds, using just their mouth I think. Waiting for the start siren. They can get them alright, but can’t put them into the bucket properly. Michael keeps telling Tilli to get the last one, and others shout at him that Karen has to get the last one. The housemates are laughing at the girls as they try to get this last one. Tilli’s hair is completely wet. This is the longest 60 seconds I’ve ever seen. Tilli picks the ones off the ground with her mouth too. Big Brother finally tells the clowns that he has been entertained. Most immediately head inside. The girls are freezing as they get out of the costumes. Dave offers to get them some towels. Inside the house, Krystal comes out of the bedroom, but then follows Tilli back in there as she comes inside. She wants some blu tack that Tilli has, but Tilli doesn’t respond. Ashley and Krystal talk about how it’s getting colder. Ashley says WA is really hot during the day but freezing at night. Out to the living room. Ashley comes out, and has Hard Yakka socks on and demostrates a run and slide with the socks. He almost runs into a bench, but recovers nicely. Comm break.

12:36am: Living room. Ashley chucks a pillow at Anna, who is occupied elsewhere. Anna and Katie do an impression of people in Frankston. Anna tells a story from her school-life. She says that they had a mental institution around the corner of their school, and this guy would catch their bus and ask them all for ciggies, and when none were offered, would find butts on the ground and smoke them. Cut to the bedroom. Jamie and Tilli are talking. Tilli says “God she is working the guys” referring about Anna. Dave is also in the bedroom. Karen says they were at least entertaining. Krystal goes into the bathroom. Jamie hums a song or a TV theme, I can’t tell. Tilli tells Jamie to have a serious conversation with Katie. She says that Katie doesn’t know how to bring it up. Jamie goes back to his humming. Elise walks by and says thanks to Jamie for cleaning the floor in the bathroom. David hops into bed. Jamie says that this environment is not conjusive to long term relationships. Tilli and David both agree. Krystal comes and joins the conversation. Almost everyone piles into the bedroom. Camilla comes over to Dave. The boys can smell Mint Listerine from someone. Someone else says they want a haircut. Gaelan starts sqeezing one of his pimples. Ash and John start throwing a ball to each other. Cut to the other side of the bedroom. Tilli, Krystal and Karen are over there. Krystal tells them that she stole some M&M’s during the latest task only a little while ago. Michael comes over and has a look like he wants to give Krystal a cuddle, but her mum is only a metre away. He says he likes everyone in the house. Krystal and Karen says they do too, and Michael laughs to that. Comm break.

12:54am: Gaelan is trying to be a goalkeeper, while everyone throws cushions at the main bedroom door. Gaelan isn’t ready and they all throw them at the same time. Lots of laughter in there tonight. It’s turned into a massive cushion fight. Something finally sounds as if it’s been broken, and they all stop. Gaelan and John check it out. A lamp has been broken. John says that was a nice end to the game. Gaelan says that Dino has the best throw of a pillow, the hardest he’s ever seen. Dino says that Anna gave as good as she coped it. They say they have broken 2 lamps and 2 vases in 2 days. Katie wonders if they will get in trouble. Comm break.

1:06am: Over to Krystal’s side of the bedroom, where it’s a bit quieter. Jamie wonders where Karen is sleeping tonight. Karen says she’ll go back to her own bed. Karen must share with Anna, and wants to sleep in the bed to let it be known that she will still communicate with her. Karen says she would rather be over here though, it’s too noisy over that side. Out to the kitchen we go. Gaelan and Dino are out there washing up. Gaelan says the beans are good again, but they throw oil everywhere. Ashley also comes out to help. They wonder who made the chick peas. Ashley says that Dave has heap of lollies. Dino calls him a shifty little prick! They continue doing the dishes. They wonder if it’s a late night. They think it’s 11pm. Ashley says the clown thing will be during the Uplate show. Gaelan gets a sardine on his finger, Ashley says you just can’t get rid of the smell. Ashley points out another sardine on the floor, and Gaela is forced to go and pick it up. Dino says that they thought Tilli might complain of sexual harassment earlier. They don’t go into what happened though. Krystal has come to help with the dishes now. Krystal drys them, puts them down, and Ashley starts drying them again. He soon realises. Comm break.

1:20am: Back to the quieter side of the bedroom. Karen says “listen to them. They all yell over the top of each other.” Tilli seems to have somehow fallen asleep during all this. Karen wonders if Jamie is circumsised. He says he isn’t, and that it generally doesn’t happen anymore nowadays. He says he has one friend who is, but he’s jewish. Jamie says he doubts there would’ve been enough skin to perform the task anyway. Mike cuts in. Back fairly quickly though. Jamie says he would like to go to bed. Jamie offer his bed, with Katie, to Karen if she would think she would sleep better over there. Karen thinks it’s better to move into this side of the room. Jamie says that Gaelan has been sleeping by himself. Karen says that Gaelan is quite happy to move into the other side of the bedroom. Jamie tells her to do that then. Jamie says that it’s certainly changed things with the girls coming back. Both the girls agree. Karen says it’ll be interesting to see who goes this week. Krystal thinks it’ll be sad. Almost screaming over the other side of the bedroom, which we cut to now. Move into the bathroom, where Ashley pulls his pants down a bit and opens the door. He comes out moments later, very strange. He says it hurts!? I don’t know what was going on. Ashley says he is tired now. (Aah he put his fella between his legs and pretended to be a girl.) Comm break.

1:32am: Still on the louder side of the bedroom. Gaelan is talking about a friend of his who had a sist down below or something and it looked really stange and huge. He says it’s all fixed now and the guy won’t care becuase he’s a great looking guy who has no problems finding chicks. Katie is talking to Anna about sex. She says it should be really passionate. Anna agrees, and say she is right to be waiting. Anna tells a story of a girl who had to break up with a guy who had a really small penis, and because he had a small one, he had issues with himself and in the end the friend of Anna’s just had to leave him. Katie starts talking about the sperm whale. Anna says that when the whale ejaculates, it doesn’t go into the female whale, so Anna suggests thinknig about that next time they go to swim at a beach and think about what kind of water they are swimming in. At 1:40am, Dreamworld says goodnight.

Day 10 Uplate

11:40pm: After about 10 minutes of listening to Mike waffle on and watch Uplate updates, we finally get to the spa. Brithday boy John, David, Jamie and Katie are in the water. Tilli picks up all the empty glasses which have been left around the spa. John says to Dave that the furthest he would go with a bloke is to kiss them on the cheek. John says that he is quite fine with saying that other guys look alright when he is talking to girls, trying to get them to go and talk to the guy in the hope of picking up. He reinterates that he is not the slightest bit interested in blokes. David asks John if he was stuck on a deserted island, with a guy that he’s told one of his girl friends is attractive, and he was busting for a blowjob, would he go there? John says thats a tough question. David says he would rather get one from an average woman than an ugly bloke. John says that if David is into men 55% and women 45%, he would be 90/10%. John says if a bloke was giving him head, he would be disgusted. He says he’s not interested in guys. Elise comes over and says they found a cruiser. She gives it to John. Claire comes over and says she is going to bed, but not to sleep. She makes mention of the fact that shes not going to sleep just yet, only bed, about 5 times. She gives everyone a kiss before departing inside. Tilli is standing near the spa, and there are 2 conversations going on, it’s very hard to understand anything. Comm break.

11:50pm: Still out at the spa. Dave says he’s never had sex with anyone with blue eyes. Then he remembers the personal trainer, so he takes it back. Katie asks if guys would go for someone like her, without the big boobs, without the makeup. They all say they would, but Jamie won’t go further, saying he’ll tell her in bed. John says he definately would, but Katie wants to know why. John says he knows he would have more fun with someone like Katie than a heap of other girls. Dino is sitting nearby, and has his say now. He says that he was walking down the street holding Katie’s hand, he would be proud, and not ashamed. John says that Dino’s line is perfect to describe Katie. Katie says that has made her night! Dino says that Jamie kissed her twice, and still didn’t make night. Katie says thats the nicest thing anyone has ever said to her. They turn it round and ask Katie whether she would go for someone like Jamie. She says she wouldn’t, but justifies it by saying that shes been with those types before and gotten hurt. She also thinks she wouldn’t be good enough for someone like that. Cut to the bedroom, where Tilli and Michael are talking. Tilli says it pissed her off that Camilla was wearing her stuff. Michael says he was trying to tell everyone he didn’t do it. Michael says he hates it when people go up and apologise to them after voting for them. She uses Elise as an example. Big Brother interrupts, telling Michael he has a $5000 fine for discussing nominations. They stand there in silence for a moment, but Tilli says he did, and that she was waiting for it. She says she is going to get some medication. Anna has come out to the spa. She says that the girls aren’t happy that she is back. Katie goes “But you aren’t!” Jamie says he was sorry to see her go. Anna says that they will have to deal with it, because she isn’t changing. Dino says that Tilli has become more close to Krystal since Anna left, and they feel a bit threatened now again that Anna’s back. Dino gets confused, thinking that there are immune for two weeks, but it’s only one week. Anna sets it straight for him. Anna laughed when Tilli came up to her tonight and asked if she hated her. Anna said the truth; she doesn’t hate anyone. She says Tilli told her that she had been missing Anna the last couple of days. She says she knew Tilli was lying. Anna says she thought Gaelan didn’t like her at all. Dino says he did, all the Melbourne boys did. Dino says a lot of people here like Anna. Comm break.

12:07am: Still at the spa. Katie and Anna are sharing a joke. Ashley throws something cold into the spa, and Dave gets out. Lots of yelling. Dino and Anna are talking about Krystal doing the shopping. Dino says she stuffed it up abit. Dino says that instead of buying 12 single rolls for $12, she bought the 12 pack for $20. He says she bought M&M’s, and because they didn’t realise the storeroom would be closed when the shop closed, they had nothing for lunch and had to eat the M&M’s. Ashlet gives another cruiser, this time the last one, to Anna. Anna shares it with Katie. She forgets Katie’s name for a second though! Anna says she can’t believe Jamie got in the spa with a microphone on. Someone is emptying all the bottles into a bin. Into the sauna, where Dave, Camilla and Elise are talking about some guy. They all say he’s a great bloke. Dave doesn’t rate him sexually though. Cut to the bedroom. Mum and daughter are lying on a bed, and Tilli is on the next bed. Krystal whispers to Tilli “Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer”. Krystal says you’ve gotta play it. Back to the spa. Nothing much happens before we cut to a break.

12:20am: Back to the spa with Jamie and others. Big Brother announces that all housemates must go to the living room immediately. Katie tells them not to talk when they get there. They start getting out of the spa. People inside start getting confortable on the couch. Michael is convinced John will get a message from home. Someone else thinks it’ll be BB telling them off for all the fines tonight. The spa people start to come in. They all gather and sit there waiting for BB’s announcement. A bit of laughing goes on. Anna and Camilla are wondering what kind of tea there were given in the revenge room. They start talking about different types of Tea. The boys throw around a balloon. Anna spills some tea, and Camilla tells her to stop it! Michael tells Big Brother to hurry up. Jamie is saying he can’t remember talking about nominations. BB starts talking, and tells them they have received $25,000 in fines in the last hour. He says this is not good enough. He says obviously they don’t understand the rules. He makes a point of Jamie in particular, telling the house that Jamie stuck his finger up at Big Brother when he received his fine. Michael laughs, and then others do. BB tells Jamie to get the housemate guidelines. He tells Jamie to stand in front of his housemates and read the guidelines out loud from cover to cover. BB tells them that everytime a housemate talks, he will be forced to start again. He commences, and has to say “The house” 9 times as Anna keeps interrupting. He gets into the third sentence the 10th time and then Anna speaks again. Others tell Anna to shutup. Even Camilla tells Anna to hurry up. Karen tells her to shutup because she won’t be looked on very nicely if they are stuck on the couch for hours. Not the perfect time for a comm break.

12:37am: Jamie is reading the housemate rules. No one is talking, although a few smirks are going around. He stops a few minutes in to see how far into the rules he is. Anna almost talks! After 7 minutes of Jamie continulously reading the rules, we get a comm break.

12:48am: Still reading the rules. At 12:50am, Big Brother interrupts, and tells them they all agreed to these rules before entering the house. He tells them to start doing so. He says that if they behave like children, they will be treated that way. BB instructs all housemates to go to the bedroom for the remainder of the night. Anna laughs, and says ‘get to the bedroom kids!’ She says ‘smack on the bottom.’ BB tells them to get to the bedroom immediately, and to close the doors behind them. Ashley picks Anna up and twirls her around. Katie tells Anna that she is glad shes back. Anna says that was fun. Jamie doesn’t understand where that came from, he can’t understand it. Anna is still laughing. Jamie wonders where Johnny is, and says he feels like he ruined his birthday. He apologises to John, but John says it wasn’t his fault. Tilli gives Jamie a hug. A long hug. Jamie says this night is turning into one of the worst in his life. John wonders if the sauna is out of bounds. Jamie comes to the bathroom, and says that was so rough. He says the fine came from nowhere. Jamie tells Dino that he deserved one of his fines tonight, but not the other one. Jamie gets into bed, takes off his undies, calls over Dino and chucks them in his face. Katie is having the time of his life. Jamie says sorry out loud to everyone. No one really responds. Cut over to the other side of the bedroom. Tilli and Gaelan are looking at something. Claire comes over and talks about her little bed pet. She say she only got it the day before she entered the house. Comm break.

1:07am: Back to the bedroom. Claire is complaining how her skin is so dry. They think it’s from the spa. Ashley and Katie has retreated to the sauna. Katie says to imagine it being this hot during the day. They look at the wall and wonder where the microphone is. We’re taken back to the bedroom proper. Karen says she is a bit torn; because Krystal is her daughter, she wants to take her side all the time. She says that she really doesn’t like Anna’s morals. Karen says tonight was too much. Camilla says that she has to understand that Anna has just been released ‘back into the wild’ after being couped up for 2 days. Karen says that she can see the war starting, and that she has already taken Krystal’s side; she says she wouldn’t associate with that person in the outside world, but it’s impossible in this house. Karen says she has said to Anna in the past “If you want to be a dick, I’ll call you a dick.” Elise says that Anna is an extreme person. Camilla says that Gaelan and others like that egg Anna on. Camilla says that just because Anna and her have become friends, she is not taking sides. Karen understands that. Camilla goes to the bathroom. David says it was a big shock, but then says he thought one would be coming back, but not two. Comm break.

1:36am: Finally get back to the action after a heap of stuff, including uplate updates and competition winners. Ashley and Anna are talking about not a lot. Anna retells her earlier story which she told Dino about Tilli coming up yo her and being totally fake. Apparently during the break Karen has started crying and wants to leave. Camilla joins in the convo and they wonder whether there was a crowd out there Sunday night. Camilla thinks there was, but Anna disagrees, saying they wouldn’t get a crowd for nothing.’ Over the other side of the bedroom, lots of laughs. Karen and Krystal are watching from the furthest most bed away. Someone asks if they can use the sauna, but they say no! Someone yells out “You bastard”, which is a running joke inside the house. Back to Anna. Anna says that she feels great to be a real part of the game again. David asks Anna if she finds friends easy to find because of her looks. Anna says with girls it’s really hard because they feel threatened except for the girls like Katie who are gems. She says if she become friends with guys who have girlfriends, the girls hate her and it pisses her off. She says if they remain friends for long enough, the girls eventually get round to telling her that shes actually quite a nice girl. Anna says that in life people judge other people, it’s a fact of life. Comm break.

1:50am: Katie and Jamie are chatting on their bed. Jamie is saying that he didn’t find it funny. Jamie explains that he wants to speak to Big Brother because he really doesn’t think he deserved the fine. Mike interrupts…He talks about an earlier attempt to talk about fines with Big Brother which wasn’t successful. Lights go off. Dino goes away, and Katie tells him not to worry about the fines. He kisses her head. They settle down to go to bed. Really hard to make out what they saying. Anna gives Jamie a cuddle. Michael is giving a cuddle to someone, I can’t work out who. It’s actually David! Michael wonders who let off the smell. Lots of talking, but it’s all off camera. Claire says that she may have to get someone up in the morning. She says she can’t have volunteers, but Elise and a few others put up there hand! At 2:00am, Dreamworld says goodnight.

Day 9 Uplate

11:32pm: Finally get a glimpse into the house after Mike has finished with his speel. Jamie, John and Elise are outside. Seems they are doing some kind of clown task this week. They seem to be putting the costumes back on the rack. They all head inside. Heaps of people standing around the stripper pole in the bedroom. Lots of conversations, hard to make out. Katie seems to be explaining some show where someone plays Chopper Read I think, I can’t pick it up. Tilli has obviously seen it, and she starts imitating it as well. Claire sings “We are in Big Brother, and we always wait…” Gaelan is playing with one of those light cubes. Krystal offers to put one in her mouth. Mike cuts in, back a bit later. A lot of singing going on in the bedroom, they are making it up as they go along. The girls mainly singing it. Cut to the revenge room. Talking about some show they have seen, and they say it’s awesome. Camilla says 1 more day. They are talking about piercings or something. Saying how it can hurt for up to a year. Anna looks majorly bored. Camilla says “Welcome to the revenge room.” Cut back to the house. Michael, Dino and John are in the kitchen. Michael thinks they will easily pass the task. John agrees. They say that the hard part of it is to get ready in the time period, once you start performing, Big Brother simply wants to be entertained! Dino thinks that they might have to complete a balance beem a number of times, but Michael thinks they have to just entertain. John is concerned they will never know when BB is happy. Michael says they might have to fall off on purpose to create entertainment. Dino doesn’t like that idea. John and Michael are creating a plan to fall into something to do with the task. Michael says it’ll be really funny. Dino has read the rules for the task. They go through all the songs and sounds to do with this task. They seem to be in some disagreement over what sound means what to do. They find the other rules with more info on it and check that out. A fair bit of silence follows.

11:57pm: In the bedroom. Housemates look to be playing charades, although I can’t see the housemates in question. Perhaps not! Back to singing, and their made up song. It seems to have progressed well. At least one verse sounds ok. Someone mentions Uncut on Thursday’s though. Someone says it could be midnight, and it is exactly midnight. Lots of laughing going on. Cut to the revenge room. Camilla is squeezing her zits. Lovely. If you’ve seen Camilla, she has lots of work to do with her zits. Camilla wonders if people are getting scared because it could be their last week. She says it people wouldn’t effect Dino and those types who don’t care. Anna tells her to stop picking her face, then gives Camilla some more advice on what to use to get off her makeup. Anna says that some makeup attracts pimples. Camilla says this one was the one she was using when she didn’t have pimples though. Camilla washes her face. Back to the house after an Uplate Update. Someone says they look like an egg! Comm break.

12:12am: Still all in the bedroom mucking around. Dave tells Tilli she looks like a tosser. Dave asks her how she would feel if she was evicted on Sunday. Beeps start going off, and they quickly realise it’s Dino and David’s turn. They quickly get into costume as others watch on. Next it’s onto the makeup. They stand and wait for Big Brother’s instructions on a yellow mat. Big Brother tells them that he wants to be entertained by the….Big Splash Relay. Another sound goes off and time commences. Apparently they have 60 seconds. Dino is first and he jumps into 3 different small pools filled with coloured stuff, not water. They easily finish the task in their alloted time, then do the clown High 5 routine where they miss each other. They wonder whether BB cleans up the mess or whether they have to. Dino thinks it’s up to them. Ahh it’s actually jelly, and Dino jumps into it again, then starts splashing it onto the other housemates, who are not impressed and start running. Big Brother tells them he is entertained. Jamie says the rules don’t say anything about cleaning it up. Dino says it was fun. They all head inside now. Mike cuts in for a few. A little bit later, David and Dino are getting changed outside, no talking though. Dave says it was very funny. Back inside, almost everyone hanging around the kitchen. Claire and Katie are laughing trying to figure out what are under jocks! They say they are doing really well in this task so far, 5 of 5 they think they have done correctly. Comm break.

12:30am: Jamie, Tilli, Krystal and Claire are talking in the bedroom. Tilli says she wants to go into the rewards room. Jamie says he’ll take a fall. Claire says they all don’t have a clue how they’ve been shown on TV out in the real world. Jamie says it’ll be interesting to see who goes. They can’t wait to hear a crowd. Jamie talks about a guy who he see’s in a local BP all the time. Claire says customers from work or anything. They say it’ll be so weird to go back into the real world. They start talking about some accounts they have, perhaps myspace internet accounts. A lot of bleeping out. Tilli says that she loved one of her teachers. Krystal says teachers really didn’t get along with her. Katie comes over. She talks to Claire for a bit. Katie starts taking her top off. She says she’s going to have a shower. Jamie says he wants one too. Katie looks in the mirror and says “Wow. I have cleavage.” A moment later she says it isn’t that much. Krystal is playing with Katie’s wig. She says it gets messy really easily though. Jamie puts it on and gets a few laughs. He starts saying something, but they bleep it all out, so we have no idea. Jamie says “What if cat really spelt dog, man!” He takes it off and asks the question again. Still no answers. Tilli wonders how Katie wears her heels. Katie says she can run in them now. Comm break.

12:44am: Katie says it would suck if you were one of those people who couldn’t handle their alcohol. Krystal says she has to be with someone when she’s drunk. She says if she’s alone, she starts messaging people and asking them questions at ridiculous hour. Krystal says if she is alone, she tends to climb into her mums bed. Jamie says he will try and find his mates if he loses them while drunk. Katie starts telling a story, but we cut to the guys in the kitchen. They start talking about Lost. David says he loves it, and he watched it in lockdown with his mate, cause he bought all the new episodes in with him (his mate). He says his mate downloaded them off the internet. I really doubt this convo will be screened for much longer! Gaelan says the best is Prison Break. David says its good too. Gaelan says that with Lost, they are still lost. He says it goes nowhere. Back to the bedroom! Tilli says that she told her mum that one night she would be home by midnight, and wouldn’t drink. She got home at 5:30am that night, and couldn’t open the door. Tilli says her mum opened the door and it was totally the silent treatment for the whole next 24 hours. Tilli says it was the best night though! Outside we go to the gym, Elise and Ashley out there. Ashley is holding the punching bag for her. She says she could do this for ages, but Ashley says he’ll have a short go. He doesn’t want the gloves, but it only lasts for a few seconds before he says he can’t be bothered. Elise goes back to doing it. Elise asks him how he is coping with the nominations. He says he’s in the same position as Elise. He says he wasn’t thinking he was playing the game, but he obviously is by doing everything the same as the others. He says it’s hard. Elise says they have to look at it not as a good, but a way to reinvent herself and look at her life. Elise says that she is a lot louder in the outside world. She says she feels like she doesn’t talk in here. Ashley says he doesn’t want to get into arguments in the house. Comm break.

12:59am: Still out in the gym. Ashley says he doesn’t think that he’s not liked, but some people have found something to use as an excuse. Ashley says that even if she is evicted this week, she’ll have so much fun on the outside. Dave comes out. Elise says that it’s not just a game. She says it’s a study on people’s behaviour inside a confined space. Elise says she doesn’t think it’s a game at all. Ashley says that you can be nominated everyweek but you never get evicted. Dave says exactly. They are all doing some gymwork, and not much talking. Elise says she loves Dave, she says he has a gorgeous heart. Elise says she would marry him, but not his lifestyle. Dave says he loves his farm. Elise says she is going to get her water. Dave wants some chocolate, and Ash says he might need to go to the toilet soon. Ashley says that at least they have given them a variety in the staples at least. Dave says the prunes are all gone or something. Elise says she doesn’t care about the food, it doesn’t bother her. Dave says that they better pass the task, seeing they bet 100%. Michael has joined them now. Michael says he really needs to food to do a proper gym workout. Dave says that everyone had meat tonight, and they all feel really good. Elise says the task is pretty easy, it’s the getting changed into uniform being the hard part. Michael says he knows he can all of the things needed in the task. Michael says this task is entertaining. Michael says the lineup was pretty boring in comparison. Michael seems to be on his own in this task. He says he would’ve liked to do it with someone else to interact at the end and have a bit of fun. Dino says that the emergency door in the toilet was left open and he could see into the hallway outside. He also says Ashley’s name has been mucked up a few times. He says from the outside it looks like a flawlessly run production, when in reality it’s not. Michael says this is a massive operation though, and there are bound to be errors. Comm break.

1:17am: Housemates in the bedroom. Only stay there for a second, and we’re back outside. They seem to be heading inside! We follow Ashley into the bedroom who has a change of batteries. They seem to be talking about the pill or something, period stuff! John seems to be trying to learn. Krystal says she hasn’t got a boyfriend so she’s not having sex (so smart!). Katie says she wants to go on the pill to get bigger boobs. Mike cuts in. Back to the bedroom again. Tilli is still educating John on the pill. Krystal is talking about when someone asked her to put on some weight. Cut back to Tilli, who says she would get bigger if she went onto the pill, but shes not at the moment. John asks Jamie if he’s on the pill. Jamie wants to get man titties. Comm break.

1:30am: Dave, Ashley and Elise are in the living area. Ashley is saying that his father was always anti gay. He says his father used to tease Ashley and his brother. Ashley says a mate of his told him in Year 11 he was bi. Ashley says he stayed mates with him, and that he is now in the Navy. Dave laughs, and says ‘typical.’ Ashley says he treats everyone the same. He says just because someone is different you shouldn’t hate them. He says he was teased and hated through high school because he got really bad acne. Ashley says he was a bit overweight as well. He seems to have dealt well with it all though. Elise says she got teased a bit in primary school. She says she didn’t have any asian friends. She says that in high school she had heaps of asian’s at her school. Elise says she had great friends in high school. Ashley says thats where he stuffed up; he had dickhead friends through high school. He says before he came onto BB, he had to get rid of them all. Dave agrees, saying just because you were friends in high school doesn’t mean you have to stay friends with them. Ashley says that his friends used to trash his house. David says that he thinks of guys the way that Ashley thinks of girls. Elise wonders if Dave is attracted to all men, or just gay men. Dave says that he’s really thought about it being in the house, and he thinks that he’s only attracted to gay men now. He says because there is a connection between gay men. He says it sucks because it’s such a tiny portion of the population. Elise says she never had a boyfriend in high school, but she was never teased, and she is thankful for that. Tilli appears and they ask her if she was teased. She says when she was little because she had nerdy glasses and her hair was a big boof. In high school she wasn’t though. Tilli says that her school was all girls, so that probably helped. Comm break.

1:43am: John, Katie and Jamie are talking on one bed. Lots of laughing going on. OMG. Mike cuts in just as Big Brother wishes John a happy birthday. And he doesn’t realise. So annoying. Everyone jumps on John. Everyone yells out thankyou Big Brother. Claire says that Big Brother is never emotional. They all sing “Happy Birthday”. Lots of the normal songs follow. John says alright, back to positions! John says she was so sure he’d done something wrong. Some housemates sing “Johnny, it’s your birthday!”. Over to the bedsit. Anna seems to be crying a bit. Camilla says she doesn’t think it’s really personal though. Camilla thinks that they voted strategically. They sit in silence for a bit. Just realised Anna is in the bath, but she is still upset. Back to the action though. They are saying people’s name in the bedroom, so heaps of bleeping.Back to the revenge room. Anna is scrubbing herself clean. Camilla keeps saying “Golliwog hair.” Back to John and Katie again for a second, before Dreamworld says goodnight at 1:52am.
