Well they're going to have a special guest coming in the house in the next few days. It's to promote another reality show on the network that BB is on.....Remember a few months or so ago, when there was this big hubbub about a show called "There's Something About Miriam", where six guys competed for the attention of a woman....but they found out in the end that she was really a he? Well, the show is now airing there, but didn't begin to air until after the HG's went in the house...so they don't know about it...

So Australia BB is going to have "she " girl come visit, maybe?? and British BB has a "she " girl as a resident! I bet BB USA wouldn't touch this topic with the proverbial 10 foot pole!!!!

Ooooh, I didn't realize the Miriam show didn't air until after the HMs went in. Now THAT is interesting! I can take a dozen Pauls over Elle. She cries every five minutes and has a high-horse critical attitude of others. At least that's the vibe I get from her.

She would be my choice. Then Cat, Kane/Wes (don't care which goes first) then Elle, then Ash, Merlin ...... no, switch them ......... then Paul ........ who's left? Anyway, I'd end up with Ryan, Trevor and Bree finishing in that order.

Yep, ever since I saw how popular Paul has become according to the votes on the official site I knew Elle was out. So long Miss Good Two-shoes!

Yes, but,by the percentages it was close to being any of them. Terri has to be wondering what the heck is going on. Going through that tention every week.

What? You have got to be kidding me! What are those Aussie people thinking? Lately RealPlayer has been acting up and keeps crasking on me. I haven't been watching much. But now that Elle is gone, I won't watch anymore. Why would they keep Teri?

A lot of people are upset at that eviction....The old "The host subtly fixed the vote" thing is up again, as the host mentioned several times that you should "vote for the least entertaining HG", and that the network wanted the other 2 to stay because of the footage they get. Now some news I've read... Miriam is supposed to enter the house later this week, but use a fake name to try to throw them off (there's some worry this won't work, because the evicted person mentioned the show and one of the remaining HG's has some medical background).....after she leaves, the concensus is there will be some intruders coming in (4 come in, 2 get to stay by a HG"s vote)....and "The X-Factor" looks to be coming into play, because one of the intruders is rumored to be the ex-girlfriend of one of the HG's....Later on in the season, The HG's are rumored to be competing in a singing contest (the network that does BB there also does that country's American Idol, and this is to promote that show's new season) after they get to see a concert...and their "Simon" will not only judge the HG's for a $25,000 prize (and another $25K for charity), but also will tell them about the million dollar first prize.

But Gretel (the host) has been saying "vote out the boring people" from day one, it wasn't something she started doing when Elle got nominated. Anyway, Terri is far more boring and Elle has received far more face-time than Terri. If there were conspiring to keep the most interesting person in the house, their plan didn't work. Now it may have SAVED Paul, but it didn't save Elle. If it's even possible to speak of the voting public as a whole, it's clear that they are going after that clique of girls (Aph, Krystal and then Elle.) There are five nominees this week, Paul, Terri, Merlin, Bree and Cat. ........... If Bree doesn't watch herself, she'll be the next one to go.

Wilson, re: Miriam and "there's some worry this won't work, because the evicted person mentioned the show" if you're talking about Elle, she was shown footage of Miriam during her post eviction interview w/Gretel and she had no clue as to who she was. (I'm sorry, I'm not sure if you've see the show or not and wanted to clear that up.) I really wish they wouldn't tell the HMs about the prize money until the end.

Well Merlins out with 45% of the vote! Does anyone else think that Mariam was just a big flop? I can't get the full feeds these past two days-but from what I saw or heard and what I have read--it doesn't seem like it went the way they hoped it would. The housemates asked her and she told them about herself---and she herself seems to be very quiet, but nice and (imo) bored with staying there.

Australian Big Brother faces real protest Sydney -Prime-time entertainment turned into political protest in Australia when a contestant evicted from hit reality-television show Big Brother staged a silent sit-in against the detention of asylum seekers. After being voted off the show Sunday night, 24-year old Merlin Luck was whisked to a nearby television studio for a live post-eviction interview. Luck sat silently, his mouth taped shut, holding a poster made from black tape stuck to paper that read "Free th refugees" the letter 'e' from the word "the" apparently fell off somewhere between the Big Brother house and the studio. There have for years been protests in Australia against the conservative government's policy of locking up all asylum seekers caught trying to sneak into the country, but rarely has one been so high profile. (from Globe and Mail). Well, how 'bout that?? Who knows if the same stunt will be tried on BB USA.. "Free ????" Mmmm, better not try..

What I thought was cool was that Gretel still tried to talk to Merlin during his protest and THEN he was invited on the show (and he came) the next night. That would NEVER have happened here. We would have cut away from the protestor immediately and he would have just kind of dissappeared.......

Ok, I have been thinking about this a little bit, the shock has worn off. It may be best that Ash was evicted with Monica. At least she will have a partner to do all the shows and help her with craziness. Even Bree is saying that she wasn't prepared and I have to say I thought she was going to be there much closer to the end. I have always wanted the final three to be Paul, Trevor and Cat. I am very happy that somehow Cat survived. Don't really understand and it and I feel so bad for Ash, she kind of reminds me of Holly, only I think she is smarter than Holly.
