They are just ignorant people. Now Cleo on the other hand......she reminds me of one of those soap opera characters, you know the one....the one every one loves, she has had tragedy upon tragedy befall her, her public persona is one of sweetness and nice, she loves everyone and of course wants to help the young ingenues. Behind the scenes she is running the show and orchestrating everyting. The way I see it, Cleo wants to get rid of Dirk because he is her age, he is not threatening, he is attractive and will definitely get a lot of votes so he is not someone she wants to be up against in the end. Cleo is going to try and get rid of everyone who is a threat and will look to put herself up against someone like Jack or Jo at the end. Cleo is Maggie from BB6

This is something interesting from DS, regarding Jade and her being in the house, as it reminds me of BTC, who I don't believe, so I don't know about this either. What do you all think, true, not true, somewhere in between? http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=522499 posted by Comaderkeen on another forum Posted 20-01-07 16:08 at DS I am a employee of Endemol and closely associated with some members of the backroom staff on CBB. Here is some information you should know. Jade had signed a contract for a chatshow prior to the start of CBB. The intention was to introduce her to the house and engineer it so she did well. Not necessarily making her win but rather ensuring her popularity was maintained. This is why all attempts to flag Jade as a racist were denied by channel4 and the presenters (who all share Jade's agent). Similarly a role as presented on a youth show was being suggested for Danielle despite some behind scenes concern over her intelligence and attitudes to foreigners. Jermaine, Leo, Donny and Dirk were put in as the producers thought it highly likely that these characters would do something bizarre to maintain the ratings and ensure fairly predictable votings off ensuring Jade reached the final. This strategy has backfired in spectacular fashion (other than Leo and Donny storming off)and the produced are absolutely cacking themselves about what will happen to Jo and Danielle."

I think Endemol is patting themselves on the back. All this free publicity is just going to do wonders for the franchise. I am thinkng that we will see Jade in BBUSA.

I believe it. I mean who would have thought an older and wiser and richer Jade would or could get worse than her first BB season and ruin the plan? I mean she was loved before she went in this second time. Shilpa is the fav right now, Dirk following close behind her, with everyone else WAAAAY behind them. It would be nice to have a Dirk/Shilpa finale and I know how it will be ruined. The housemates will nominate Shilpa and Dirk together and one will leave. If the producers are smart, they will make sure there is a third nominee next week.

here's a delicious thought I had earlier this morning ... Jo, Cleo, and Danielle have been caught discussing nominations. the punishment? one doesn't get to nominate. one is automatically put up for public vote. one must nominate onscreen in front of all the other HMs. and ... the three of them have 30 seconds to decide which of them gets which punishment, or all 3 are automatically the only ones up for public vote. "Please Please Please let me be the producer for 24 hours!!!"

From DS, another take on what's been going on with Dirk and some of the other HM. http://bigbrother.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds11826.html Dirk annoys group with indoor smoking Day 18, 23:25 UTC - by Neil Wilkes Dirk has started to isolate himself from the group, apparently in a bid to get voted out. The actor - the oldest of the remaining housemates - has today adopted a policy of smoking his cigars indoors, against the wishes of the others. His actions led Jo to describe him as a "bitter and twisted man", while Jack threatened: "If he smokes in the bedroom, I'll rip it out his hand and flush it down the toilet." Meanwhile Cleo admitted that she was "angry" because Dirk "hasn't got a sense of humour", adding that she was tiring of his constant discussion of lentils. Ian attempted to find a compromise, asking Dirk: "For the people who don't like smoke, would you mind opening the door a little bit?" Dirk was defiant, however, replying: "No no no no no. I'll be my same self." Jermaine later called time on the housemates' plans to retaliate with some practical jokes. Dirk was in bed by 9pm.

That's what I was going to say, Bourque! Jo smokes inside all the time. I don't complain about smokers, but what shocks me is that Jo smokes at all..She is a singer wanting a come-back for heaven's sake! Smoking will rid you of a crisp singing voice years ahead of time.

Yeah, I was wondering about that, if they were trying to give another view, to detract from viewers thinking the "pack" is at it again, or something. He could want to leave though, I don't know, I hope someone puts todays happenings on YT, lol.

Tiss, I'll look at everything you posted right after I watch the 18a daily show. Thank you so much. I just had to comment on 18a daily while I am only halfway through it. OMG...could they pour more syrup and marshmallows on the editing of the "new" Shilpa/Jade relationship? Also. at the point of the show 10:10 , what did Danielle say to Shilpa? I have played it 5 times over and all I can get is "We could all come to India and have some Saki"???? Surely that can't be what she said. Someone fill me in that has been able to grasp her dialect.

Bourque, my yahoo address is acting very strangely in my email program, so I just emailed you from an address that works better and is more reliable that I would rather use.

One thing I would like to say...I think if Dirk knew how much us gals liked him in the house, he wouldn't be so down on his portrayal and want to leave. I think he truly believes no one knows who he is and he thinks he is just maybe a side note of the show. I wish I could let him know we really like him a lot, back then..and now.

I am very very curious to see if Dirk "does anything" post-BB. oh, I'm hoping ... He could be on Heroes, and his superpower could be assessing with one touch which vitamins/nutrients you lack. He could portray Chloe's father on 24, one of the founders (along with Al Gore, ya know) of the Internet, and be Chloe's geek mentor behind the scenes, suddenly thrust into the open when Jack needed a bit more backup (course we'd need it written into his contract he is NOT dispensible!) MONK! He could be Adrian's long time penpal from Montana who, after retiring from the police force moves to warmer weather and becomes a pal. Imagine the 2 to 3 minute OCD freakout scenes those two could create together!

Thank you for all the links Tissy. Jade as a blonde and still loud. Wow. On a side note, I really like the format of BBUK, much more than I like BBUS. I like the setup outside, I like the house, I like having the massive crowds there to cheer or boo, I like the viewers voting people out (like our BB1), and on and on. Oh, I also like Davina and wish she'd move to the US and take over as host of BB. I don't think I'll be watching a BB8 in the US, if there is one, not unless they change the show to something like BBUK.
