Davina just said "you just decided you wanted to give Jennifer the old heave-ho. You wouldn't do that to Monet, would you?" Ho ho ho.

Clips of when the anouncement was made, Jen says "over 50% of the viewers must have wanted me out - not a nice feeling." Davina's coming to get her. Hugs and claps all round.

Audience boos loudly. She looks nervous, like she's confused. Which I guess she probably is as she doesn't seem to know what she did wrong.

Interview:
Dav: how do you feel about reaction of crowd - Jen says she doesn't feel anything, wasn't expecting to be loved. Says it's hard, did she offend anyone, what has she done? Dav asks if she is surprised to be there, says she isn't. Says thought she might be out the first week. Says other housemates thought it would be Rex because he's cocky. Dav asks who nomed her - says Kat, Rachel, Mo, Darnell, Rex - actually those plus Lisa. Says she's surprised Mo said he didn't like her, as she liked him. Said he was sweet. Talk about people saying she's at the epicentre of arguments, Jen kind of misses the point. Says she didn't dislike Rex, he just irritated her. Dav says about her always saying she wants to be real, then shows clips of her talking about Rachel and her falseness. Dav asks what was wrong with Rachel and Kat - Jen says they had no negativity and it was false. Davina says they really are like that, they never say anything nasty. Jen says they didn't have real opinion, Kat gaves evil looks, false.

Dav says "picturegate," asks if she overreacted, Jen says definitely. Dav says that was turning point for public.

Love triangle - shows clips. Dav says she should love Dale, Jen says she does. Dav asks if "in that way" she says see what happens. Dav said she wound him up about Stuart. Jen says weird Stuart had so much in common with her. Dav seems to have a crush on Dale! Dav says Jen led them both on, in bed with both. Jen says she didn't want to be in the triangle. Dav asks what she wants to say at Dale when he's evicted, Jen says she wants to be there.

Dav asks why Bex has gone funny, hopes Bex will be better now Jen has gone (ouch!). Jen says uncomfortable with Mario and Lisa sometimes. Jen wants Luke to win. Best bits.

Davina - fresh blood!

First newbie:
Sara. Missed her age but early 20s I guess. Angelina Jolie lookalike. Australian. Says she's not girlie. Says she's loud, likes to be involved in everyone's conversations. Thinks she's hard to live with. Was a bad girl when younger but better now. Not sweet as pie. Wants a boyfriend who adores her. Would do anything. Would sleep with someone for a million pounds.

Inside - all cheering and shouting. Rebecca hugging. Now hugs all round. I think it's Mo making comments about the back about he can't believe it. (Davina says Dale is looking at her like she's an alien.)


Newbie 2: Maysoon, 28, Model (the Lynx model). Has also done music vids, either dancing or just looking pretty. Says people think she's stuck up but shouldn't if they know her. Says thinks you need to live life on the edge. Crowd reaction mixed (she sounded a bit haughty, I'd guess that's why). Says people who are too in your face are rude. Says she's always right even when she's wrong. Ideal job would be Queen. Is Muslim (wonder if she keeps halal?).

Inside - more loudness! Mario first in there this time. Rebecca screaming in background.


Newbie 3: Belinda, 44, Theatre director. Brought up in East Africa, life of privilege. Says she doesn't fit into the "Lord and Lady" life. Joined theatre at 16. Says she's small and fat. Wants to show authority. Can pep people up, speaks up for the unjust (? think she means she speaks up when people are picked on). Married 23 years. Crowd boos here and there but mostly positive. Wearing quite a dress! Very into music.

Inside - screams. Introductions. She says Lisa's beautiful. Seems a bit into Lisa and Mario! Not spoken to others yet. Now doing everyone.

C'est tout.

Jen has one set of standards for her group and another for anyone she thinks she can get out of there..she is a game player and a manipulator and a tease..according to the papers she isn't even divorced..and she is playing off these two guys on there..

I completely agree. I'm trying to get caught up with BB UK and it's so violent compared to BB AU. Geez, Jen acted like a 2-year-old when Rex 'touched/smudged' her painting. She completely overreacted and got her 'gang' to let her cry and carry on. Just as I was thinking, "It's just a painting" Mohammed said it out loud and BAM! They all came crashing down on him. This is a house divided. I haven't seen much of Mohammed, but I like what I've seen so far. It would appear many of the others have decided to target him for some reason. He didn't get in anyone's face. He merely stated the obvious and they went ballistic. Jen needs to grow up. She's in a house full of people and things are going to happen. Perhaps she's too young in her maturity to be in the BB house.

I thought I would like the new guy that came in, but he was totally enraged about the painting incident as well. It seems that some of them are just looking for things to go off about.

I like Mohammed, Kat, Lisa and Mario. I thought Jen was very pretty, but her personality ruins her for me. I kind of like the other gal that looks like Jen, but I forget her name at the moment.

Thanks for the recap Kitt. The fireworks are over and everyone just left. Now I can go watch for myself. From your recap, I think I will enjoy this episode.

You're welcome, Mamabatsy. I'm just going to watch BBBM, apparently that host asked Jen some more direct questions, so I'm interested to see her answers.

Cricket, I think Mohamed is a very nice, well meaning guy, with bad personal habits and not very good social skills. Jen and that lot are all "surface" people and can't see the good in him. But they will get theirs!

Jen needs lessons in listening. She cut Davina off twice during the interview with her own opinion rather than listening to what Davina was telling her. Once when Davina was trying to tell Jen that Bex is harming herself with her recent behavior, Jen piped in with how much fun Bex is. Then when Davina was trying to tell Jen that Luke is playing both sides, Jen jumped in with how much fun he is. She will have a hard life if she doesn't learn to listen.

I like all three of the new women. Does anyone know if they have been watching the show? It seems that some have been trying to bend their ears and sway their opinions of the rest of the house. If they are smart, they will form their own opinions and not listen to the gossip mongers.

I agree with you, Kitt. Yes, he's made some mistakes, but I don't see him as mean-spirited as some of the others. It's so very interesting that no matter where the show is ....what country, you see some very similar personality types. I don't see as many in the AU version, but the UK version has people who could be identical twins of some on the US version of BB.

Do the people nommed ever find out they are nommed? I haven't heard BB tell them in the videos I've watched so far. Thanks.

I used to like Luke, but his attitude and playing both sides (Rachel & Kat were absolutely correct in that) has made me not like him much anymore.

I just answered my own question re whether they are told. In watching Pt 4 of Epi. 27, I heard BB tell Rex/Jen they were nommed.

Yep, they know who is up for eviction, but of course not how many noms they received or who nommed them.

Jen annoyed me a lot in the interview, for the reasons you said, Mamab. I, obviously because I'm "vile" too, wanted her to hear what people are saying about her. I guess she'll have heard by now, but at the time she was acting like it was a fun interview.

The only thing she did seem to take note of was the pre-show spot about Dale saying he would "nail" all the <ladies> as part of some gameplan. What was that about hanging out with the honest people, Jen?

Luke has disappointed me, because I liked him through the sudition process and for the first couple of weeks. But he's a little sneak, goes running with information between sides. And like you say, Mamab, he's been telling the new people who to trust!! I'd also hope they know enough to form their own opinions - they should form their opinions about Luke first!

I think they weren't barred from watching the show, but they are barred from talking about what they've seen. I can't imagine the two younger girls having seen much because they seem to have had busy lives; the model was even out of the country recently. Did Belinda say she was a big BB fan? I'd have thought she'd have watched it. It does give them an advantage but at the same time they have a big disadvantage for coming in late, so maybe it evens it out.

Luke and Bex are upset that Belinda is another happy person! I thought they might do a bit of backtracking because of the eviction but I guess not! From DS:

Luke and Bex mock Belinda's games

Day 31, 19:29 BST

By Ashleigh Rainbird
Belinda called the housemates together for a game of 'In Knots' this afternoon.

She co-ordinated Rachel, Mikey, Darnell, Kat, Sara, Dale and Stuart into a circle with her, instructing them to close their eyes and lock hands with one another with their arms intertwined.

Once sufficiently 'knotted', she instructed them to open their eyes and untangle themselves, all the while remaining locked together.

While most of the housemates enjoyed the afternoon games, Luke and Rebecca watched from inside, mocking the rest of the group’s "happy house".

"Oh now Mohamed’s fallen on the floor," Luke said in mock sympathy. "That’s it, play the theatrics, pretend you’ve broken your foot. It’s because he was vindicated by the public last week. Another one saved by the public."

He then branded himself and Rebecca as "losers", after mocking the "zombies" that were playing games. "I wish I was that happy," he said as they heard squeals from the garden.

"Give it three days and they’ll be down in the dumps," he later said to Mario.

Sounds like Becca and Luke will be the next two to go. I don't know what happened to Luke. He seemed okay @ the beginning, but has become very negative and arrogant as the show has gone on. It may be the people he's deciding to hang with.

Yes I loved the paper bag task! They should have more of this fun/silly type of games on the US BB, it would make it far more entertaining.

Nominations today. The new people can't vote and can't be voted for. I think Rebecca will definitely be up and probably Luke. I wonder if the non-Rebecca votes will be spread around a bit so that quite a few people will be out. I think the viewers will evict Rebecca if she's up. I don't know how she'll take the news though - she's quite a handful on a regular day.

My favourite Darnell is being a bit odd lately. Apparently on Thursday he decided that for the ongoing music task the housemates should swap instruments. BB told him they couldn't and he said they had to compromise. BB said no but Darnell wouldn't budge, and so the task has been forfeited. I can't find the link now, but apparently BB said (to Darnell) that he had let himself down, his housemates down and Big Brother down, so it seemed pretty serious in their eyes. As far as I know the others don't know what happened. I'm behind on this weekend's shows but maybe they will show it.

And now he thinks Sara is in the house "for him." Earlier on he thought the new housemates were put in the house to make him happy, and now he thinks Sara is flirting with him really suspiciously. I don't know how serious he's being but it comes across as weird when I read the DS updates. Again, maybe it'll be better on tv in context. I don't want Darnell to lose his marbles!

Mario seems to be picking on Lisa today:

I wonder if he's realised she's not voting/playing how he does.

Also from the Channel4 site there's a notice that says:
Housemates were speculating all weekend about nomination twists, but they are currently nominating in the normal way.

The "currently" makes it sound like there actually will be a twist this week. I haven't found any leaked spoilers on nominees yet, but I'll post if I see anything later on.

It sounds as if Mario is worried that Lisa is liked more than he is. He should take a lesson from her on how to keep his mouth shut.

Unless the twist is one of the 3 new girls will be voted out by the remaining HG's after the eviction Friday (they said they couldn't nom or be nommed- but they never said they couldn't be evicted), I think it's a normal week otherwise...

The spoilers have Mario and Rebecca as the nominees.

Sounds like a win-win to me! I think Rebecca will go but it could be close, for both of them there seem to be viewers who think the show wouldn't be the same without them.

Rebecca will most likely be the one out, but I wish it could be Mario. Not that I dislike him more, but I'd love to see if Lisa is any better without him. I have a feeling we've never really met her.

Yes, I like Lisa a lot, she'd be a lot more involved with the others if Mario didn't keep her locked up in the luxury bedroom (or bath) and we'd see what she's really like.

The noms went as follows:

Darnell: Mario and Rebecca
Mohamed: Mario and Rebecca
Kat: Mario and Luke
Rex: Mario and Lisa
Stuart: Rachel and Mario
Mikey: Rebecca and Rex
Rachel: Luke and Rebecca
Lisa: Darnell and Stuart
Luke: Darnell and Kat
Mario: Darnell and Rex
Dale: Mohamed and Rex
Rebecca: Mohamed and Rachel

That gives us:
Mario: 5 noms
Rebecca: 4 noms

Darnell, Rex: 3
Luke, Mohamed, Rachel: 2
Kat, Lisa, Stuart: 1
Dale, Mikey: 0

Interesting Mario got more than Rebecca. And a very mixed bunch. Darnell has obviously upset some people.
