I've been thinking about those names they were given. Freddie became Halfwit because he clearly thinks he's smarter than anyone else while Sophie is now Dogface because she likely thought she'd be the prettiest one. I think Noirin is an absolute knockout without any silicone enhancement, but I bet Sophie thought she'd be the one all the men want.

I'm not able to watch any shows at this point. Has anyone written a message to the Justintv board and been able to get access? Thanks. I can't fathom what made Saffia want to just leave all of a sudden. They sure aren't like our Big Brother, where they make you talk to a physcologist for 7 hours until you give up and stay...that's for sure.

On BBLB Saffia's saying her reason for leaving was her babies, but it just wasn't what she expected. George is saying about tension and they're showing clips of her and Kris and then Dogface with Kris, so George seems to be blaming it a bit on that too. Saffia's saying she has nothing more to say about Sophia except she'd want to see her tonight!

Cairon had a big meltdown over a conversation with Sree. I wasn't paying complete attention so I'm not sure how it started but it seemed like a huge overreaction and included a study of the relatives size of their penises. Then Sree goes to the diary room and says he wants to go and Cairon is being bullying. Cairon was called to the diary room about it and Davina said he got called in again today over a different incident. Lines are closed on the voting... the first person to be evicted is:

They're coming out! Hugs all round. Siavash is wearing a big placard?!?! Couldn't read what it said. And the crowd are booing! Booing badly! Interview time. Different format with Davina and a comedian and Judy James (psychologist) in a kind of panel.
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | Is she surprised - no, respects public's opinion. Dav says she seemed confident yesterday, she denies it. Dav asks why she thinks she's here, Sophia says she thinks she's about to find out. What's the problem with Saffia? Says about the task and Saffia not chosing her, Dav interrupts and says why didn't she accept Saffia's olive branch, she says didn't want to do what wasn't genuine. Saffia only did olive branch when people were there to see her do it. Dav says consensus was that Saffia left because of Kris and Sophie - did Sophia notice that, Sophia says she didn't know that. Dom (comedian) says wanted Halfwit to go until tonight because he's so cringeworthy, but after tonight says he wanted Sophia to go and said "Napolean complex"(!). Jokes about the multiple glasses. Says her hate seemed unreasonable. Dav asks Judy about the strategy. Says she was reckless, in animal terms it would be suicidal. Said Sophia went straight for the leader of the pack. Sophia says she doesn't fear human beings. Judy says normally an attack is to get the leader's power. Wants to know why she went for the alpha. Sophia says she wasn't thinking about that, it's just that they didn't get on. Shows clip of the row. Dav asks if she thinks she behaved ok. Agrees on there it looks agressive. Dav says she's like a terrier and can't let go, Soph agrees. Judy says they were arguing over territory and Sophia made it so there was no alternative for Saffia to leave. (very interesting!) Dom is saying she doesn't seem as terrifying in real life, Dav says this is the Sophia from the VT. Soph says she bites back if attacked. Dav asks Judy about Saffia walking - what would have happened if Sophia had stayed now Saffia gone? Judy said Soph changed into peacemaker, didn't take the head role. Soph said she's quite a chill person if not attacked. Was shocked when Saffia went. Dom said she didn't attack her but Soph got so angry at her, couldn't see why. Soph said it wasn't fair, what Saffia did. Soph says Cairon is funny, Sree is "something else," irritating but also sweet. Dav asks if regrets? Soph says she didn't realise she was coming across agressive. Might take a step back because of that. Otherwise basically no. Soph says Freddie will be nominated again next week (and said they just had a big argument). Best bits.
| I loved the panel format, the psychologist was very interesting.

I have to say in today's episodes argument I think Saffia was in the wrong. Sophia was there having a conversation and Saffia came up and demanded Sophia move which was stupid. Saffia is just childish as Sophia. i don't think Saffia should have gone in there at all, her children are so young it was not a sensible choice. Plus the whole thing with Kris was silly, you just met this boy and you think he should settle right away? i am personally glad she walked little drama queen. If ii was Benaziar I would be beyond pissed because she wanted to be there and Saffia took a place that she didn't really want. Cairon went off his rocker and really was rude. Cairon does not have the maturity to let it slide. Sree did say what he needed to to his face and Cairon was very aggressive and unnecessary. Lisa said Sree needs to learn to take it back which he does have to but so does Cairon. Side notes: Charlie does seem to play all the angles he is trying to keep it smooth. Angel cleans up well..she looked lovely on the eviction show. I think the right person was evicted out of the two, Sophia without her counter part of Saffia Ii think would be boring. She had her huge blow up and she would have just been put up every week until she went anyways. Plus the laugh would annoy the hell out of me. I am not sure i like the new eviction chat with the guests isn't that what Big Mouth about? Speaking of Big Mouth i laughed so hard at Sophia calling Saffia a quitter when Saffia said Sophia had her turn now it was time to focus on her. I think if someone walks they shouldn't get the big shows.

Lol, have to agree with you Kellee re Sophia calling Saffia a quitter, esp. when one guest on the panel said the way Sophia played the game was suicide. Too funny. I came here to ask what was up with Kris and Sophie all of a sudden, as I thought he liked someone else and she liked Cairon. I thought perhaps BB told them to play the role of being in a romance when I came across this article: BB Warns Pair About Fake Romance Wow! I'm really confused now. I'm shocked @ the confrontation between BB and Sophie. Guess you aren't allowed to change your mind in that house. What would Kris/Sophie gain by having a fake romance? ETA: Just for my clarification, is today's BB UK show on @ 1:00 PM board time? Thanks.

I think the Saffis/Sophia arguments were quite interesting. Two very different techniques. Saffia was in the wrong for telling her to go (plus she was never going to get a favourable response to that!) but at least she was trying to address the issue. Sophia's problems seemed to be created out of nothing and fueled by very little. Funny that they're both gone so soon! Wow on the fake romance!! BB did say they were going to cut down on it, but just because Sophia has a preference for Usher, doesn't mean she wouldn't grow to like someone who looks nothing like him. Weird of BB! I hope they show the fall out of that in the highlights show!

In today's ep they show what Lisa said to Freddie when they were waiting for Sophia to go. I think Freddie could be a bit annoying, perhaps more than a bit, but he normally means well. Lisa on the other hand is just a grouch who wants things her way. Don't like Lisa. Beginning to like Freddie a lot because he's so loopy. They've also been showing more of Kris and Sophie. Kris looks a bit smitten but I kind of see what they were saying now, Sophie just doesn't look that into him.

Does Marcus really think he was put in the house as the cute/hunky guy?? Oh my gosh! I don't think he's cute at all or the least bit hunky. I wonder if BB has set him straight as to who/what his character is yet. I'm not sure I know.

Marcus seems to have an incredibly high opinion of himself, actually. It's almost embarrassing to hear him say some of the things he says. Both he and Lisa walk around like they own the place and I'm not fond of either of them. For all of their quirks, I think Angel and Freddie are entertaining. Neither of them are my favorites, but I do like them. Actually, I'm find Charlie, Noirin, and Rodrigo to be my favorites. Cairon really lived up to the stereotype he was given with his fight with Sree. I normally like Cairon well enough, although I may be more indifferent than anything, but he just came across as angry, immature, and unlikeable. Most of the guys I know like Cairon wouldn't have reacted like that, and I was hoping he wouldn't.

What Freddie said to Lisa was true, they don't want them to cross the garden so they can hear the crowd noise. In previous series they can listen at the door because it is so close to the crowd and I think in Series 6 when they had the same sort of lounge room they were not allowed to go to the door then either. Lisa was irrational what Freddie said had no attitude or rudeness to it. By god Karly has a thick Irish accent! The only reason I comment on this is I had no clue, we are a week in and this is the first episode where I think she has strung more than one sentence together. Marcus is right that they are all in there as characters but his is not as a piece of meat, it is as a wanna be wolverine. Have to say if he shaved the mutton chops before his interview he most likely wouldn't have made it in. And the best line of the series so far... Siavash : I am not here to judge, just to reject. (in regards to his delusion that all the women love him)

Was he being serious? Does he really think that everyone in the house (men and women) are attracted to him? If he wasn't joking, his self image is WAAAYYYY off.

I think by "beef" what he meant was that he was chosen for looks, not necessarily for good looks, just because of how he looked. I think that's what he meant!! But he has said things before that suggest his self-image is way off, so I might be giving him too much benefit of the doubt! Siavash though - I think he believes what he says about his looks, but strangely I still like him. They've got a lot of eccentrics this year and I'm enjoying them. I'd like to see more of Noirin, Angel and Rodrigo. I find Angel intriguing, she seems hard yet delicate at the same time. Noirin seems nice but I haven't heard much of her, ditto with Rodrigo. P.S. I'm pretty sure Karly is Scottish not Irish!

I only understood about a third of what Karly said. That is one thick accent. Noirin and Rodrigo are still my favorites with Angel a close third. I think Siavash lives in his own little world, but seems like a nice guy. I guess I'd place him as my forth favorite right now. Of course, my likes and dislikes are subject to change at any moment. I've completely lost all my places that posted videos after the fact. Every one has been closed. Only one place left to see the live show. I hope they don't catch him or I'm done.

Wow, they've closed a lot of the streaming just this afternoon! Different message to before so I don't even know whether they'll be back. I don't know why they're making this so hard for us .

It makes no sense to me at all. I understand that they might not want those who can see the show on TV to watch a You Tube of it. But for the rest of the world, it makes no sense. They are even hurting their sponsors because last year one of the cookies they advertised looked so good I went to World Market and bought some. OK, they weren't as good as they looked, but it was a sale. I don't understand how they are harmed if people who cannot receive the show watch it on-line.

I totally agree Mamabatsy. Without being able to watch the shows online, I am starting to lose interest. Why should it matter if we watch on line when we are not in area that can receive the show on tv. I thought last year they allowed the videos to be posted, but no one in the UK could view them. That made sense, but this year nothing makes sense.

Well, I don't know what upset me more. I thought I would puke when Sree was putting the moves on Noirin. The man makes me squirm and not in a good way. Lisa cannot let anything go without arguing about it. Noirin is a big girl. She knows how long she can go without food. I don't think it would upset BB if she goes hungry, but she would get a punishment if she rubs the "glasses" off and then she'd just have to put them on again. I wish they had the 24 hour feed even if I can't get it. DS was pretty good about reporting happenings but this year I feel like I"m in the dark with no BBLB and no feeds. I couldn't find anything on the site Kitt gave me to direct me to a viewing site, but still was able to go to the big eared kid's site. I hope they never catch on to him.

Yeah, that's the same way I saw it in the end, Mamab. Got to hope he's safe... Yep, I'm feeling pretty disconnected from the show too, as I just don't know enough of what's going on. Noirin didn't seem to mind Sree, though I had the same reaction as you did! Now everyone's made a fuss about the glasses BB are likely to make her keep them on longer. If I were her I would have pretended it was all ok and hoped BB would get bored of it. A positive way of getting something done about it might have been to persuade the group to give or do something to BB in exchange for not having to do it - like sacrifice a token, or she could barter with her share of the food or something. I did like the rational way Marcus spoke to BB about it, and how he stood up to Lisa. Lisa is by far my least favourite now.

... Yup, my source got caught. I really dislike Lisa's attitude. She has this domineering personality, while also having the know-it-all approach. "Oh I could'a told'ya!" gets old after hearing it the first seventeen times.

The daily highlights show has been extended by 10 mins each day this week - runs from 2-3.10pm board time daily Mon-Thurs. I looked to see if one day's show was extended because of a replacement housemate for Saffia, but it doesn't look like it. I guess we have to wait until Friday... assuming we can still see the show then.
