BOTS was so much better with Emma. Somehow, with her, it was just fun, and she really knew how to play the audience. Also, while she was polite to some of the nuts predicting stuff with asparagus spears and whatnot, you could see the twinkle in her eye.
Seems all AJ and Rylan do is shout. Oh, well, maybe they'll improve.

I would have much preferred exHM BBUK13 Lydia (with the famous fiancee') & Benedict (the porn star) as BOTS presenters. They were both very comfortable in front of cameras & had a quick wit.

Emma still hosts BOTS three or four days a week. I cannot watch when teeth and screamer are hosting. They are nightmares.

Yes, Will, Benedict would be brilliant. Teeth and screamer--too funny, Mamabatsy.

I like Teeth. Screamer, not so much. And they certainly make you appreciate Emma!

I haven't paid *that* much attention but it's felt like (so far) Emma has only hosted BOTS one night - I know she's made an appearance many nights but it's felt like the other 2 were hosting. I have been hoping that she's just letting them have some time before she returns in force but so far I'm feeling BOTS is "Emma lite".
I haven't been repulsed by Rylan so far, but between the accent & "something" I just can't understand AJ. She sounds like she has a tongue piercing with too large of a barbell.
Reminds me of that show when their daughter gets a tongue piercing & she lisps, "you juss doan know whass cool!"
I also want to thank Kitt for keeping us updated with the schedule! I'd be lost without it.

You're all very welcome for the schedule. I am without internet for a while this week but hope to be up and running again before Friday for next week's schedule. And to catch up on the shows of course  .

AJ is a beautiful girl. I love looking at her, but once she opens her mouth, I wonder how she possibly got a job presenting anything. Thank goodness for Iain co-hosting Bit on the Psych. He is great and helps to tone AJ down. I love the psych show and don't want to stop watching because of AJ.
I enjoyed this week immensely. I like all the HMs. Even the ones I hate! I think it's a great group and will be a great show.

Noms are done:
Dexter 10
Gina 8
Jemimah 5
Well, Dan got Dexter nommed (without being called out for talking noms) and now he's already working on Callum. If only Sallie realized she was buds with the real Ssssssnake in the house.
BB must let the audience nom again so Dan will be nommed. It will be ratings gold. I don't see him getting nommed as he has others do his dirty work...so sneaky. If he does get nommed, he'll accuse every other player in the house of being an actor. He never lets up.
I hope Gina goes this week so Dexter can stay and somehow get stronger.
I don't get Hazel/Dan combo. It seems she really has a crush on him. She's always flirting with him. Guess she is upset with Charlie for something Charlie said to her and also for Charlie taking Sallie's place in her bed.

I'm thinking it won't take long for this group to catch on to Dan and nominate him. Dan said it himself, he can't let things go once he gets something in his head and I think they'll get annoyed with him quickly.
My guess is Jemima will go this week. I think Gina and Dexter know a lot of rich people who will vote a lot for other people to go. They could possibly both buy their way to the end. That's just my stupid theory LOL..

Not so sure Gina is rich after reading this article, Sarasmile.

I thought Gina seemed like a fraud from the start.
Her VT was ridiculous and if she really grew up with that kind of money, she would not be bragging about how much she spends all the time.
Why would somebody with that kind of money even bother with Big Brother in the first place?

OK- now the shopping task this week seems kinda fun...it's a zombie-virus themed task (and nice for the BB staff to talk to Charlie Brooker about this first and get his OK- look up the mini series "Dead Set" if you don't know what I mean)..

Just tuned into the show and Charlie is crying and went to the DR, as Dan strokes Hazel's arm. Seems like Charlie may have said something to Hazel about her prior relationship? Charlie asked the DR for advice and they said they know things like this happen (they seem to like Charlie) and best thing to do is just say sorry.
Charlie apologized and Hazel said it was okay, but she just didn't want to talk about...kind of shut her down.
This touchy/feely relationship between Dan/Hazel is creeping me out. Again, when they are together (which is most of the time) they are always b*tching (although Dan doesn't do that hah) about someone and they come across as sinister or plotting. It creeps me out.
There is something we don't know about them. Does Hazel have a child? Seems like her personal life is off limits, so why did she go on BB?

Charlie stated 'I put two and two together and blurted it out' as she was apologizing to Hazel. Might it have been about this?
Hazel Doesn't Blame Darren's Fans For Sending Hate Mail
Snip:
The Wexford native says she wants to ‘veer away from the spotlight’, which is understandable after the events of two years ago.
‘I have got a lot of hate mail,’ she said. ‘I had so many nasty comments on my social networking pages as well as emails and comments on boxing forums.
‘People have said things like I was just trying to ride the media wave off the back of Darren’s death, which isn’t true and it was so hurtful. I think there was a lot of hate mail because there was so much confusion at the time.
Interesting. Meanwhile, in the house, Jemimah is talking/yelling herself right out the door. Gina is saved again, lol.

Wow...don't miss tonight's Highlights show.
Charlie asked Hazel if her and her ex breaking up had anything to do with him hanging himself (just read that) and Hazel was upset. Now I understand why. That's when Charlie went to the DR.
Then, Jackie was making discussion and saying yes, what Charlie did was wrong, but she's been throught a lot. Jemimah tells Jackie she protects Charlie too much and they go off. Dan kind of tells her to stop.
Later in the bedroom Charlie apologizes to Jemimah about her mother and while Jemimah says she's not upset...she seems she is. Dan then tells Jemimah Jackie was right and all h*ll breaks loose between Jemimah and Dan just like it did between Jem and Jackie.
Jemimah is completely losing it. Wow!

The editing suggests to me that BB wants Jemimah to be out this week. They showed what Charlie, Jacky and Dan said, but really focused on Jemimah being a trouble maker. We only see what they want us to see and they want us to see her in a bad light. Of course she cooperates by being a jerk.

You're welcome, Sarasmile. I have to agree with you, Mama; however, Jemimah says the noms don't bother her, but she seems to be coming unglued.
She kept having to one-up Jackie on tragedies. It was sad to watch.
What was odd to me was that Dan was in the LR when Jackie/Jem were going at it and then with only Charlie and Jem in the BR, Dan was there also and he butt in again. He wasn't necessarily wrong in what he told Jem in the BR, but it was odd that he was in there...almost as if he was following her around.
However, as you say, it could be editing.

At one point in trying to one-up Jackie and make it all about herself, Jemima went on quite a bit about how her daughter "died right in front of her eyes", when in fact she did not die, but had some kind of collapse or stopped breathing or something and Jemima revived her and her daughter is alive and well.

Yes, they are going to cut the feeds and yet leave the horrible BOTS. The feeds are too early in the evening and it's always their dinner time...rather boring.
Too bad they couldn't do them later in the evening.

This group is pathetic. The first real task they have been given and after a day in quarantine they are all ready to quit.
Jack and Joe seem to be the biggest whingers in there, and everyone else just goes along with it after listening to one of them cry and moan for 24 hours
