I feel bad for Noirin. She did try to let Sree know many times, and just when she thought he really understood...BAM...his short attention span kicked in. In my opinion he is extremly selfish. He has obviously had a very spoiled upbringing, and has had his own way too many times. It really is too bad that we can't watch the show on Youtube anymore. I wonder if they will allow it after the season is over. So far I've been able to watch them all except for the first 10 minutes of todays show. I keep missing BBLB though. It just makes me wonder if Channel 4 has tried really hard to figure out why there have been low numbers watching. And the reason why a lot of people go else where to watch the show. It seems like they have the show on late in the UK, and to have it on everyday would be hard to expect people to be able to watch it every night.

Some ISP's include usenet server access with your subscription, though not many these days. I know Comcast stopped including it. Check with your ISP. There is also a bit of a learning curve but once you see what is there, it's well worth it in my opinion. Browse around Newzbin.com to see what kind of files are generally available. Pay servers go for $5 per month and up depending on the volume of download capacity required. Back to thew show...I hope Sree goes soon so the lazy show runners will have to find some other storylines. I'm tired of the Sree show.

Oops forget that bit about Newzbin.com. I guess it's no longer a public site.

Wow, Noirin stuck it to Sree today! Seems like she and Marcus will nominate him for sure tomorrow, so it'd only take a couple more for him to be up I think. I really want him out! Did Marcus get his first Russian line wrong? Some of what they put on the screen was in red. He's such a show off, desperate to prove himself! I'm not liking Charlie much at all. There's something about him but I'm not sure what it is. He makes me uneasy.

I was cheering Noirin as she kept a straight, angry face as Sree was grinning like the fool that he is. He really thought that just because he has the hots for her, she should just let him own her. At the end he was still trying to make her sit on his lap. What an idiot he is. And they seem to feature him more than the others. They can't get him out of there fast enough for me. The red words were the incorrect ones. Marcus got two out of three right which is better than the others except for Angel. And what Marcus was trying to tell Sree was right. Since they didn't know how many would be called to translate, Angel had to go before anyone else. Marcus is a blowhard, but I think he is bright and they might listen to him if he weren't so confrontational and grungy. He could even be good looking if he'd get rid of the mutton chops. I think it's funny that both Freddie and Sophie have picked up on Kris acting more gay than straight. Freddie is quite astute, but if Sophie sees it, it must be blatant.

I actually thought Kris was bisexual, and I only thought that because he was with Sophie, otherwise I would have thought he was gay. Very telling for Sophie to be saying she looks like his beard! Today's show was about Saturday, and they'll be nominating Monday morning, so I think there's a good chance with things being so recent that Sree will be up. I just hope there aren't too many people who either believe he's simply naive or who think he's entertaining. I'd like to see more of the others, and with Sree in the house it doesn't seem like Ch4 want to let us do that.

Apparently there`s going to be a twist to this weeks nominations http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/big_brother/2493200/Wicked-Wednesday.html How true it is I`m not sure - but we`ll be able to tell if they nominate later today

Rumour has it that Wednesday's show is a live nomination, not new housemates, so so much for me thinking Sree's recent activities will be still on their mind! I'm also reading that for Halfwit's 24th birthday present he was given the chance to change his own name back, let Sophie change her name back, or let Noirin remove the marker-pen glasses. Can't find what he did yet. These come facts/rumours come from here: http://www.theblueroom.me.uk/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=255 I found a lot of things mentioned that I hadn't heard about... they might come from the official site though, I don't go there much.

snap, Tissy It was the Sun that seems to be the source of Halfwit's birthday present choice too. I wonder if they have an inside man.

This week’s shopping task involves one housemate becoming Henry VIII, as Siavash came to the diary room to collect the task instructions he has unwittingly taken this role in the task. Henry VIII will have to choose six housemates to be his wives and a further two to be courtiers. All these housemates will live in luxury in King Henry’s Court while all other housemates will become cooks. There is however one other special role - the village idiot - the housemates however do not know what this ’special role’ involves. For the duration of the task the house will turn into Tudor England, including a court and Tudor Kitchen. Access to the house kitchen is forbidden and housemates must only eat the food set in the Tudor Kitchen, which is all in its most basic form - rabbits, chickens, vegetables, etc. Those housemates who are cooks will be required to prepare food for a feast on the second day using real traditional Tudor recipes. All housemates must fulfil their roles throughout the two days, should a housemate be punished, the Village Idiot will take the blame and must take whatever Tudor punishment Big Brother sets, such as wearing a barrel or going in the stocks.

It looks really good, some great pictures from it here: http://www.theblueroom.me.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23788 And FReddie chose for Noirin to have her glasses removed, for his birthday present yesterday. Awwww.

What did you guys think about Sree at the end of the show? That was all a bit odd... was he trying to turn Charlie on for a game? It seemed to be beyond flirting. I'm happy they had a day of Freddie, I think people are warming to him at last. And Siavash is really growing on me, he's one of my favourites.

I thought it was impossible for Sree to creep me out any worse than he already had, but that whole thing with Charlie sent me over the edge. I was literally grinding my teeth because of the look on Sree's face. It's almost as if he isn't there when he's doing garbage like that. They didn't show the blonde (I still can't get them straight) telling him to keep his hands to himself. It seems Sree is getting a much better edit than he deserves. It might be because of the whole Shilpa Shetty thing. The producers/editors might be walking on eggshells. I really enjoyed Freddie's birthday party. He seems so appreciative that they were including him in his own party. He really is a loveable weirdo. I figured out why I like Noirin so much. I think she is what my granddaughter will look like in ten years. Like Noirin, my granddaughter is Irish/Black. I think the adoption record said there was a Japanese birth grandparent in there somewhere too, but Noirin and my granddaughter have a lot of the same features. I just hope my granddaughter doesn't do any nipple tricks at parties.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that was downright weird. I think he was getting a good edit, but they're including more and more freaky stuff in the last few days. Online they're saying there are immigration issues with him, as he was in the UK on a student visa... that allows a small about of work, to support your education but I don't think it would allow a full time "job" (which I guess this is, as they are paid by BB). BB confirmed he had spoken to a lawyer and someone said Sree had left the diary room and told someone he'd had bad news but he couldn't talk about it. I should think all that makes it an easier decision for BB to switch the editing, as if there's a chance to get him out using the normal process they would want that! It sounds like your granddaughter will be very beautiful. Yes, let's hope she never discovers Noirin's trick!

On today's show Angel is saying she's almost in love with Noirin, and seems to give the impression she thinks the feeling is reciprocated?! I don't think they showed the clip that led up to that. They're still hardly showing Rodrigo, and when they do he's being a bit snappy, yet I still like him. He doesn't say anything mean, just is a bit grouchy if anything. Thankfully today's show was mostly Sree-free. And Charlie will not nominate this week - Siavash (as King Henry VIII) had to chose one person who would not nominate and he chose Charlie as he thought Charlie didn't like nominating.

I just hope my granddaughter doesn't do any nipple tricks at parties. Totally agree, Mama, esp. if she calls them "Party Tricks." When I think of party tricks, that has never come to mind. http://blogs.mirror.co.uk/big-brother/ This point of the article made me want to barf. "And finally, Sree sucking on Marcus's hairy nipple was so disturbing, I don't think I'll ever be able to watch Big Bro again. Well, perhaps that's going a bit too far........" OMG! Yesterday they were fighting and I forgot to watch today's show. Did anyone see this and was it as awful as it sounds? What kind of BB is this? Is Sree being asked to do weird things by BB in secret?

I think someone dared him to do it, they did show it, though it was more of a lick than a suck.

From DS, here's what will happen tomorrow night: Housemates to nominate live By Matthew Reynolds This week’s nominations will be shown live tonight, Channel 4 has confirmed. Following the highlights show at 9pm, Big Brother will call each housemate into the Diary Room. Each contestant will be given a strict amount of time to nominate two others up for eviction. If they do not provide adequate reasons or fail to finish in time, their nominations will not count. Housemates will then gather on the sofas for the result, with the public vote beginning at 10am tomorrow. Charlie will not be taking part in the nominations after Siavash chose him to be exempt. The live show, presented by Davina, will take place at 10.55pm tonight on Channel 4.

I do hope it's Sree that goes home this week. While he made some good points about Marcus yesterday (what an ego on that guy) he then went and whined to BB he wanted to go home and they should have a word with Marcus. Sree just doesn't fit in in the house. Quit whining and hit the road, Sree.

Apparently he's told BB that he wants to leave, and that they've said he has to give them time to set it up - at least that's what he's telling everyone. I'm not sure what prompted it. Also Marcus was heard on the feeds thanking Siavash for what sounded like making him immune from eviction this week. As he made Charlie immune from nominating it seems like this could be real. I did think it was likely that Marcus would be up for eviction this week (hopefully along with Sree) so this would be good news for Sree non-fans. I think (assuming no Marcus) Sree'll be up with Angel and/or Freddie. I bet Noirin will get a few noms this time round too.

I got today off since my granddaughter went to Hurricane Harbor. It works for me since I usually get home at 1:30 and would miss half the HL show. I am spending my whole day off on BB UK. I would never do that for the US show. I hope they show faces when Siavash tells them it's Marcus that will be immune. I think more than half of them would have nominated him.

Yeah, Marcus is very lucky! Although I'm not sure I've seen enough to dislike any of them really (except Sree!), there does seem like there's a main group forming of Charlie, Kris, Sophie, Karly and Lisa, and they're trying to pick off most of the rest - Freddie, Angel, Marcus, probably Noirin if they could. Sree seems in the middle but currently protected, and Siavash seems liked by all. If the main group keep the numbers then the more interesting people will go, which will be a shame. Worse case scenario tonight - Sree isn't up!!
