The main sticking point seems to be Bex- they've been talking as to who would go where, and Maysoon insists Bex stay in Hell, which Dale refuses to do. Everyone else they've seemed to agreed upon. (Bex has treatened to walk if she's in Hell this week...)

If Bex really didn't want to be in Hell, she should have hung on a little longer. If she had even tried, Dale would have a better argument to convince Maysoon. I think Maysoon is very observant and would make a great HOH while Dale will just favor his friends.

I think they've set Heaven as Dale, Darnell, Maysoon, Rex and Stuart, and are fighting over whether the final two should be Bex and Luke or Sara and Lisa... but I'm not sure. Mikey and Rachel (by choice) seem to be in Hell whatever, and Kat and Mo are going to be either in Hell or worse. Is that right?? I agree Rebecca hasn't done anything to deserve Heaven. She didn't try at the task, she never does any cleaning or cooking. She could hardly do her half hour on the bike. Why does she deserve it over someone like Lisa?

I think Darnell went to them and said that he would take hell if it meant they could compromise and come down ..he threatened to eat a banana in order to end it.. Bex is going to heaven and I personally am livid about that..all she does is whine moan complain and truly annoy the heck out of me. She seems to think she is better than Rachel or Kat. She needs to be knocked down a peg or two. So Heaven will be Bex Luke Dale Maysoon Rex Sara and Stuart

Yeah, Dale HOH. Darnell ate a banana to force an ending by taking himself to Hell. There are some good things for the current Heaven people with Rebecca and Luke having to be away from Lisa and Mikey i, Lisa and Mikey might go back to being annoyed at Rebecca and nominate her ii, the lack of Luke's complaining might make those two a bit happier iii, if Luke continues to complain while in Heaven, and I'm sure he will, it's just his nature, then he'll annoy the people who are still in Hell even more iv, if Kat goes to Hell rather than solitary, then Lisa might find living with her not as bad as Luke and Mario told her it was. I'm clutching at straws maybe, but I want Luke out!

I think Rex hit the nail on the head for the best reason to send Kat to hell, she does not mind the beds and they can be assured the dishes would be clean, the food would be clean, and that she would not whine about it. Mikey still drives me up the wall complaining that he should be in heaven but they keep pointing out to him that he likes to go to bed early. i think Darnell did the banana thing in order to redeem himself over his behaviour of the past couple of days.He knew he has not been himself and he wanted to make sure he did something selfless before nominations.

I the end there are only going to be six in heaven, so Dale dropped Sara. Maysoon didn't really get anything out of waiting so long. Darnell is already being paranoid about not being a "cool kid." The ex-heaven people are also trying to bond a bit with Lisa and Mikey, who are in Hell again. Sara seems to be friendly with them all anyway. Mohamed said he ate the banana so he could make the choice to go to Hell, rather than have one of the others make him. He's also decided to say what he thinks from now on, and has already argued with Dale. I get a feeling Mo will be up for eviction with Rebecca, Darnell and possibly Luke. I think Rex will be safe this week as they'll aim for someone else because he's been "saved" twice. Nominations tomorrow.

To me, Belinda is not a very good judge of character. She did seem to favor looks over substance while in the house and the article sounds as if she has the hots for Dale and Stuart. She thought Rachel was fake and thought that Kat disliked her. Rachel might be dull or boring to some (I like her) but she is what she is and isn't at all fake. She "bonded" with Lisa and called her completely fake, but genuine. Belinda needs to stop singing and start thinking.

Dale bright and intelligent? I haven't seen much of that. And didn't Dale admit he'd sold drugs too? I don't think much of her judgement either.

Bex is going to heaven and I personally am livid about that..all she does is whine moan complain and truly annoy the heck out of me. I am right there being livid with you, Kellee. That is just so wrong to reward her after she took someone else's spot and once again quit when the going got tough! I want her voted out ASAP. I don't think it was fair that the people in Heaven were the ones competing (except for she who quit.) It would seem the people in Hell should be the competitors so as to have a chance to change things up. Darnell doesn't deserve to be in Heaven a second week after his little outburst. Does anyone know what's going on with Mo and Kat? Did they get automatic nominations this week to be voted on by the public, or will the house evict one of them? I so don't want Kat to leave. I'm surprised that Kat broke two rules, although she was hysterical in the DR with her mouth and arms loaded with bananas. It sounded like she didn't think she actually stepped/went on the side of Hell. Why aren't Luke, Bex and Stuart in jail for talking about the vote? They discussed who to vote to evict in the storage room and that is clearly against the rules. Is UK BB slipping, or will it be in future episodes?

I don't think they realised going to the Hell side was a problem, just the banana eating. They got automatic Hell this week for the banana eating and for the fence-hopping they both have had all their belongings taken away for a period - I don't think they know how long. Rex warned them what was likely to be happening when they were told to pack, so I think they're both wearing all-purpose clothes and it hadn't been too bad. I'm pretty certain they aren't automatically up for the vote and they were definitely allowed to nominate. Yeah, Stuart again said that he wanted to be nominated and still no jail time. And I thought that in the intro to the house they said there was some kind of solitary confinement place. Some of these repeat offenders really deserve some punishment that might actually make a difference.

Rumour has it Mo and Darnell are up for eviction this week. It hasn't been confirmed by any reliable source, and it's not from a regular spoiler, but that's what someone's claimed at DS. I doubt we'll know for sure until tomorrow. I'll be sad if it is Mo and Darnell, and I can't really guess who will go. Both are good guys at heart, imo, who have some really annoying points to them!

If Darnelle was a drug dealer in his recent past, then I can understand questioning BB's judgement; there are too many people who apply, who haven't sold drugs. And if Dale was one also, then that is a terrible surprise. Drugs damage lives and having sold them shows someone's character. Being rewarded by going on a tv show, doesn't show how horrific that is, nor remorse or any effort to make a change for the better.

Being put in prison for dealing drugs does not necessarily make one a drug dealer. The charges for dealing drugs are technical more than practical.

Nominations confirmed as Darnell, Mo and Rebecca! I was surprised to see the ratings were low this season, because generally on the forums people are saying that this season is the best for a while. And apart from Steph the evictions have been very one-sided, so people can't claim they haven't got what they wanted. I think it's a case of be careful what you wish for, people have voted out the loud and annoying people and are then surprised that the house has mellowed out and is less "interesting." I like the house and this season.

The votes went as follows: Dale: Mo and Darnell Luke: Darnell and Mo Rebecca: Mo and Darnell Stuart: Mo and Darnell Darnell: Rebecca and Luke Kat: Luke and Rebecca Rachel: Luke and Rebecca Maysoon: Rebecca and Stuart Mo: Rebecca and Stuart Lisa: Rex and Darnell Mikey: Darnell and Kat Sara: Mo and Rachel Rex: Lisa and Mikey That gives: Darnell: 6 noms Mo, Rebecca: 5 Luke: 3 Lisa, Stuart: 2 Kat, Mikey, Rachel, Rex: 1 Maysoon, Sara (and Dale): 0 That really shows how tight Dale, Luke, Rebecca and Stuart are. Rex seems to have ecaped this week; I think he'll be there until the final few now.

Being put in prison for drug dealing, does make you a drug dealer, regardless of how many times it was done, it was done. I've never heard him say he was falsely accused. I don't see how anyone can try and split hairs with something like this, it's not a game, it's harmful and destructive. I had wondered if people who tuned out bc of Alex, never went back, and that's why it is so low. I've never read anything about that though, just wild speculation :-)

Darnell said that he never went to prison for dealing drugs. He was arrested for possession and was placed on probation. Just as he was about to finish his probation, he was run through the INS computer and found to be be here illegally. He went to prison or jail for that until his trial and then he was deported for being here illegally. He had the misfortune to be on probation when the US was cracking down on illegals. If his stepfather had adopted him, it would have been a non-issue.

This would never have been an issue had he not been found with drugs in his possession, with intent to sell, or to use, it's unclear to me. Had he not had drugs on him, the INS would not have even known his name. Had that not happened, he likely could have found a way to remain in the US, if he wanted to, like many others do, or try to do. His actions did this to him, no one elses.

Kitt stated: Hell this week for the banana eating and for the fence-hopping they both have had all their belongings taken away for a period - I don't think they know how long." Ahh, I didn't realize that was their punishment. Thanks, Kitt. I thought one of them was going to be evicted. You're right, Stuart talked about wanting to be nommed and he then talked with the others as to whom they would vote for between Kat and Mo. I guess maybe they didn't get penalized because there wasn't actually a vote between Kat and Mo, but that shouldn't be a reason not to give them jail time for discussing noms.

Early days yet but the odds have 2/5 for Rebecca to go, 16/5 for Mo and 35/2 for Darnell. The housemates seem convinced Rebecca's safe because she beat Mario. Re: Darnell, I think there are reasons people who are outside of the situation find difficult to understand when talking about drugs and inner cities. He was given, and completed, community service for his cannabis possession charge and since he was deported Darnell has become a youth mentor to help the kids who were caught up in the things he was caught up in. I think you have to give people a chance to change who they are and that's what Darnell's trying to do.

Dale might be trying to get out of the house...he was given a choice as to who to give a treat to, and he picked heaven for reasons he didn't specify. He's probably going to be nommed for this reason next week (he's also said he'll walk in three weeks). He says he wants to be nominated before the final (some of the Digital Spy people think he wants to be evicted before the final so he gets his week of press time, because if you make the final, everyone is focused on the winner)

I think it's Dale's ego/competitive streak that's making him want to leave - he'd rather macho it up and take himself out in three weeks than be in the final three and viewers vote him third rather than first. I don't know if he knows that if you walk you don't get the BBLB, BBBM treatment though (or do you still get that?). I get the impression he thinks everything will be as normal if he just leaves. I'm waiting for him to do the shopping list if they're on a budget. They say how terribly Darnell did, but apart from forgetting potatoes his only trouble was overspending by $17 and having some of the essentials at the end of the list. When Lisa did it, and she seems to be the shopping list star, she overspent by $49! I can't see Dale doing well at all.
