Today, a nominations pod will be revealed to the housemates. The nominations pod will be situated in the heaven side of the garden. As head of house, Stuart will be asked to read a laminate to the group that will reveal that only the heavenly housemates may use the nominations pod.
To enter the nominations pod, heavenly housemates must ring the buzzer and wait for Big Brother to unlock it. Heavenly housemates must only enter the pod TWO at a time.
When they are in the pod, they may ONLY discuss nominations. If they don’t discuss nominations in the pod they may be punished. Read more & comment »

Day 51
6.07am: All the housemates are asleep. Tonight Darnell, Mohamed and Rebecca face the public vote. Rebecca and Luke are in bed kissing quietly. They pull the covers over their heads and carry on kissing.
9.30am: Housemates in the bedroom are woken by an alarm and get out of bed quickly but sleepily. Lisa offers to make tea. Sara comments that the present hell housemates are good at getting out of bed as soon as the alarm goes off. ‘My first week in hell, it took a long time to wake everyone up, but you guys are great’, she says.
Darnell goes to the kitchen and throws some clothes in the bin. Mohamed asks him what he is doing. Darnell replies that he’s sure he will be going tonight (hence why he is throwing out his clothes). Mohammed thinks ‘that kiss’ last night between himself and Rebecca may not have been that enjoyable for her.
In the bedroom, Darnell gives Kat a bag to use as a makeup bag. She is overwhelmed and tells him to stop giving his things away, as it’s too sad. Darnell ignores this and throws his trainers in the kitchen bin too. Read more & comment »

Calum Best’s new reality TV show is due to kick off this weekend on MTV (see the trailer here) and Calum has revealed why he decided to take part in the show.
“I know what people thought of me. No-one took me seriously,” Calum told the Daily Star. “Frankly, the last two years are a bit of a blur. I’d lost my way. I was on a downward spiral.
“I was lucky. I had a choice. Either I could have the kind of summer I usually have – drinking, shagging, wondering where the time went – or I could do something about it. So I decided to grab this show as a life line.”
Calum is now half way through his 50 day challenge and is already reaping the rewards. Read more & comment »

So I was watching the Big Brother highlights last night and thought that the housemates must be in some sort of weird fancy dress in which Luke Marsden had been required to draw on a silly looking moustache. However, as the show progressed and I saw Luke waking the next morning with the same fluffy monstrosity above his lips I realised that he had actually grown that thing on purpose.
Thankfully, with the departure of Bex, Luke must have regained some of his common sense, as he went to the bathroom this morning and shaved the line of bum fluff away.
Luke had never shaved before entering the BB house, now he has shaved both his face and his toes, had his eyebrows plucked and grown a poor excuse for a moustache. What a a man!

Today’s Big Brother task will determine which housemate becomes the next head of house and who lives in heaven with them. The housemate who scores the most points in the task will become head of house, and the three housemates who are runners up, will live with them in heaven.
In the Diary Room there will be eight types of chilli peppers numbered from one to eight. The chilli peppers are set out in order of strength. Chilli number 1 is the mildest and chilli number 8, is the hottest.
Housemates will earn points by eating the chillies. Chilli number 1 is worth 1 point, chilli number 2 is worth 2 points and so on. The hotter the chilli, the more points are to be won. Read more & comment »

Big Brother’s Little Brother presenter, Zezi Ifore, has been given the boot from her co-presenter role on the Channel 4 show.
Zezi has proved very unpopular with readers of this blog and others and made herself unpopular with show bosses when she failed to show up for last Sunday’s show.
After a meeting on Thursday, Zezi was informed that she will now be confined to appearing in recorded segments of the show and will only be present in the BBLB studio on Sundays.
A show source told The Sun: “Zezi was just not cutting the mustard on BBLB. But the idea is that she’ll be out meeting housemates from the series and their family members. Read more & comment »
