I was wrong, I did know who John McCormick was, although I am decidedly not a fan! I'm glad they at least told them that the "you're the favourite" bit was a lie before he left for the day, it'd be very cruel to have the three nominees think they were the favourite at the eviction show. Both Jade and Victor are growing on me. I don't like Victor's chauvinistic attitude but it seems like stress may have caused his other bad habits. And Jade really does seem nice, even though her crying is pretty irritating! I have nothing against Jeremy, so I still want either Jade or Victor to go. I'm also liking the "cleaning" girl more, at first I didn't really get her. I'm just finding this so much more interesting than previous Big Brothers. Interesting but less addictive. I hope it's a big hit in the UK, I haven't heard yet whether it's more or less popular than other years. It'd be good if BB learnt some lessons from this with regard to casting and applied them to future seasons. I'd like to see more of Latoya and Calista, we hardly ever see them. ETA: evictions at about 1.30pm board time... please do post if you hear something Stormie!

Now that's interesting Kitt....I guess comparing it to regular BBs, this edition is ok...But comparing to it something like the last couple of celebrity BBs where the celebs actually lived in the house and there were easily US recognized celebs, I think this one is a dud compared to those. Heck, last year with Shilpa, Dirk Benedict, Germaine Jackson and the gang, I could barely leave the computer during their awake hours. Same as the year before with that group. This one is nowhere near as fun.

From http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/bigbrother/liveupdates/ 22:31: Dermot announces that Jade is the first to be evicted. The housemates are shocked and are astounded that as she left a voice said: "Runner up in Great Britain's beauty pageant, loser in the BIg Brother house, get out, have your five minutes of fame."

Not sure where that voice came from, whether it meant it was Dermot's voice or someone else's. It seems a bit harsh as she's an emotional girl and it's an emotional moment. Naja, I saw the first two Celebrity BBs but none since. I didn't think of this as a Celebrity show though, as none of the houseguests are celebrities.

Jade was the only one I would have preferred to stay. I was surprised Victor didn't get the boot, seeing the portrayal he has been getting on all the broadcast shows.

I think it was Jade's crying that tipped the balance. If she'd just been happy and bouncy it would have been ok (although a lot are saying it's false) but the crying thing in a grown girl is a little off-putting. And Victor redeemed himself a little when he spoke to Kelly Osbourne and then again in the task when he was shown what he'd said.

Well the voices saying the thing about Jade being a loser, and assorted other things like "get out, they all wanted you out so much they voted for you" were the two <25> from Big Mouth. I think it was really bad judgement from whoever gave those two a microphone. Really inappropriate. I'm quite angry about it really!! Jade seemed to just ignore it but I bet she actually felt it.

Here's some latest links. I like Dermot, but I do miss Davina for the eviction, oh well. Day 08 HL Janet Street Porter is the Hijacker & Day 09 Live Eviction: Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack Live Eviction Show 1 Pt. 1 of 8 (added 01/12/08) On Day 08: Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack UK BBBM Show 6 Pt. 1 of 3 (added 01/11/08) I'm not yet caught up, but I read what they said to Jade, it was quite mean and uncalled for. I wanted the gay man who dresses semidrag to be BBBM if Russel was not coming back, he has more tact and it much funnier. I don't want to waste my time even watching that show anymore, it's plenty for me with the HL and BBLB. I didn't think Jade should have been evicted, but she's had this experience, so good for her.

Theres a very funny video on the official site right now of Brian, winner from last BBUK, doing a cameo appearance in the house. ...only slightly marred by the fact that a lot of them had no idea who he was.

I did wonder that about Brian, whether the hms would recognise him and care if they did. And he'd be so enthusiastic and they would wonder what was going on. I'm a bit behind now, saw Friday's eviction show but that's the last one I've seen. Stormie, I gave up on BBBM last season, those two do nothing for me. I doubt they apologised to Jade for what they said but I hope someone on the staff did. So uncalled for.

I stopped watching BBBM when Russell Brand left, for the most part. It's kind of sad though that it's looking like all the same celebs they had hosting BBBM last time are now the "celebrity" hijackers.

OK, not sure about yesterday's show with the SAS... that's a little extreme! I know they were warned, but still! I'm only on the first part, but it seems more than a little scary. Ah ok, the voiceover guy has said they were told about what this would entail, so at least it's not a shock. They will be interrogated - the first housemate to crack and reveal the secret code they were told gets to nominate one housemate to be put up for eviction. The last person to reveal gets #5000 and immunity from eviction this week for themselves and one other housemate of their choice. There is a pre-agreed safe word they can use at any time to stop the interrogation.

Some SAS people stormed the bedroom, kidnapped Amy and Anthony, put a bag over their heads, drove them around a bit to disorient them, then took them to a cellar, which was actually the room next to the BB house, but they didn't know that, and questioned them for five hours. BB had given them a four number code each and told them that the interrogators would try to get the code from them. If they didn't reveal the code they would receive 5000 pounds and they and one other player of their choice would be immune from this week's eviction. If they did reveal the code then they had to nominate one person who would definitely face the public vote. That was actually the truth. But the interrogators tried to persuade them that BB had been lying. With Anthony they said everyone in the house was waiting for them to reveal the code, then they'd get something (or something like that, it was a little hard to tell) if he gave up the code. With Amy they seemed to be trying to make her think if she didn't reveal the code she was being selfish and not a team player. They also did the "the other person has done their but so now it's up to you" thing. Amy was great and didn't give up a thing; Anthony was cocky at first but eventually believed them when they said the rules had changed and revealed his code. He was really upset afterwards where as Amy seemed a bit ok. I hope they got some kind of session with a psychologist because it looked traumatic! Result: Amy won 5K, and chose Anthony to be the other one, with herself, who could not be evicted this week. Anthony chose Victor to face the public vote.

Thanks Kitt. That seems a bit harsh, scary as well. I'm not even sure what to say about that, that's really not funny. Thanks again, I'm ready now "if" I look at it, sheesh.

They were warned about it in advance, otherwise it would have been too much. It was very extreme! No one seems damaged today though. I'm watching the Chris Moyles one now, much more fun!

Well, that's good they warned them, though it seems very harsh to me. I'm dling that one now to watch, lol, always behind, oh well. They pulled through, I guess I can watch it. I'm glad Chris Moyles is more fun. And from wikipedia, it looks like Joan Rivers will be this week, hope that's good, though I wonder if they'll know who she is, we'll see

Oh yes, they'll know who Joan Rivers is, everybody knows who Joan Rivers is! I have no idea what she will do, she always seems so mean and catty on tv, I can't imagine what her task will be.

OMG, I felt so embarrassed for Liam when the hijacker, Brian Sewell, let him know the whole world saw him have a "wank"..hahahaha

I haven't seen the Brian Sewell one yet, but I know what he was referring to - they showed it only quickly and without comment. Liam is kind of... needy, it must be the earliest act of "relief" we've seen, they've only been there 10 days or so!
