Big Brother: Day 45 Highlights
11:23am: Most of the housemates are in the living room. Luke is talking how heaven and hell will operate under the new Head of House. Luke says that a straight swap would be best and fairest. Rex tells Luke that if he was deciding then Luke would be in his top six as he is entertaining. Big Brother calls Darnell to the Diary Room and tells him that his reign as Head of House is at an end and that he will not be permitted to run for the position twice.
Darnell tells Big Brother that he made a mistake in his selection of fellow heavenly housemates. He said he chose from the heart and not his head and would warn whoever is the next Head of House to choose carefully. Darnell feels that everyone has complained about his role as Head of House.
11:50am: Some of the housemates from hell are in the basic bedroom. “Rebecca should be our new Head of House” says Luke, “She’d be ruthless” he adds. Rebecca then asks Luke to help with her election speech. He says that he would help her. Michael adds that whatever result she wants they will engineer it. “Rebecca for the first female leader” says Luke
1.46pm: Big Brother has gathered all the housemates to the sofas. Today housemates will take part in a test of endurance in order to select a brand new Head of House. As well as choosing which housemates will go to heaven and which housemates will go to hell, the Head of House will also be immune from eviction next Friday. Housemates have 15 minutes to decide which of them will take part in the endurance test. In order to become the next Head of House the three selected Housemates will have to hang on tyres suspended from rope in the garden.
“I’ll have ago” says Rebecca as housemates debate who should take part in the task. Darnell is trying to suggest ways in which they can make that choice. “You’re not Head of House anymore” says Rex. Darnell begins to get very annoyed at this and begins to shout at Rachel and Dale. “Pipe down” Dale tells Darnell, “You’re a little baby” he adds. “You’re supposed to be my friend” counters Darnell. He feels that people have taken shots at him all week as Head of House. “Get over yourself,” Dale tells him.
The housemates get back to the task at hand and continue to discuss who will compete for Head of House. They decide that whoever wants to go for it will be given a number and Stuart will then pick three numbers at random.
Stuart picks 2, 4 and 7. This is Dale, Maysoon and Lisa. Lisa then says that she is actually tired from the last week and doesn’t want to do it. Darnell questions why she put up her hand in the first place. Rebecca then offers to take her place. Rex thinks that will make good television.
2.36pm: Maysoon, Dale and Rebecca are dressed as gorillas and are sitting on tires attached by rope to a large frame. They are the only housemates allowed to eat the bananas Big Brother has provided for the task. “I want to get off now” announces Rebecca before the task begins. Big Brother then announces that the task has started. Luke and Rex try and give Rebecca hints as to how to make it easier for herself. Despite the other housemates encouragement, Rebecca becomes increasingly upset and finally gives in, climbing off her tyre. She makes her way to the Diary Room. “It’s an absolute joke” says Michael of Rebecca’s effort.
2.49pm: Most of the housemates are in the garden. Michael feels that Rebecca shouldn’t get the chance to participate in any more tasks as her effort was so pitiful, Rex agrees.
Rebecca is in the Diary Room. “I lasted about a minute” she says complaining to Big Brother. She adds that she’s not physical and therefore can’t do physical tasks. She says she will not be happy if she is in hell for another week and will act up if she is, staying in bed all day and eating all the food
Hanging on the tyres, Dale and Maysoon discuss who they would choose for heaven. Maysoon would want it largely the same but would want Lisa, Stuart and Sara to come across
“Have you cried in the Diary Room?” asks Luke to Rebecca as she enters the bedroom. She slumps down on to the bed and tells them that she couldn’t have stayed on longer as it was hurting her. “Yeah but four minutes?!” says Michael. “You’re the laughing stock of the house” they inform her, adding that she has no one’s respect.
3.09pm: Mohamed and Darnell are in the living area. Mohamed is telling Darnell that he wants to jump the fence to go and get a banana, figuring he will be in hell anyway. “Shall I just go and do it?” he asks. Darnell thinks that would be “awesome”. Mohamed enters the garden and tells Rex what he is going to do. Rex bets he won’t go through with it. Mohamed jumps over the fence. The other housemates applaud and cheer. Kathreya then tries to climb the fence but has to be helped by Mohamed.
3:21pm: Rex is trying to get Rachel to eat a banana. She says she doesn’t want to. “Boring is not the word” Rex says of her. Luke and Darnell wonder what the punishment will be and then laugh at Rachel’s reluctance to do anything bad. “She is the fence!” they say of her impartiality.
Big Brother calls Kathreya and Mohamed to the Diary Room and asks that they bring all the bananas with them.
In the Diary Room, Big Brother reminds them of the rules of the task and also reiterates the rules of heaven and hell. They say that they were aware of these rules but Kathreya says she was just so hungry. Big Brother asks them to place all bananas on the floor and reprimands Kathreya for talking a final bite
5.04pm: Maysoon and Dale have been competing to become Head of House task for 2 hours and 23 minutes.
Rebecca is asking Maysoon and Dale if they would please just tell her if she is in heaven or hell. Luke is in the Diary Room. Luke wants to go to heaven and would take Rebecca with him as she is his best friend in the house.
Back in the garden, Rebecca and Sara are trying to entice Dale and Maysoon with promises of custard creams and eggs if they tell them who will be in heaven or hell. Dale agrees to do this and gets them to bring out the food to Darnell. Dale tells them that they will be going to hell. Sara and Rebecca looked shocked as Dale laughs at them
6:19pm:
Dale and Maysoon have been competing to become the next Head of House for 3 hours and 43 minutes. Sara is trying to get Dale and Maysoon to put her in heaven. She promises she will be good fun
Stuart is in the Diary Room. Stuart is telling Big Brother that he can’t handle being in hell for another week. He says it has been so bad that getting sent to Jail was the highlight of the week for him. He feels the Rebecca’s effort at the task was pitiful and claims it’s really bad when you begin to put your hopes on her
7:22pm: Big Brother informs housemates that the storeroom is now open for them to collect Mohamed and Kathreya’s suitcases. They have thirty minutes to pack and return them to the storeroom. The housemates are shocked. Collecting the cases from the storeroom, Luke and Rebecca are laughing. Stuart joins them and they discuss what will happen. Upon leaving with the case Rebecca tells a tearful Kathreya that all will be well. In the garden, Rex says that the public would be outraged if they evicted Kathreya but would be that fussed if Mohamed went. In the luxury bedroom Mohamed suspects that Big Brother is only confiscating their clothes
10.58pm: Dale and Maysoon have been hanging out in the Garden for 8 hours and 21 minutes.
Some of the housemates are in the living room. Darnell asks Rebecca to get him a banana to eat if it means it will end the task. “Let’s get it over with” he says. When Maysoon finds out what Darnell is going to do she shouts for him not to and then jumps off the tyre so he won’t eat the banana. But she goes into the house to find Darnell already has.
11.15pm: Big Brother summons Dale to the Diary Room. He is told that as he has completed the task he is now Head of House. Dale is very pleased and says that there was no way that he would have given up. He would have been gutted had he gone for the position twice and failed both times. Big Brother tells him that he will choose who will reside in heaven and hell tomorrow. Luke, Rebecca, Lisa and Michael think it strange that Maysoon gave up to stop Darnell. They wonder what she would have been like as a leader.
2:59pm: Most of the Housemates are asleep. Mohamed and Kathreya are in the bathroom and are discussing their punishment. Kathreya says to let the house decide if they have to choose between them. She is aware that some people don’t like her and might use this opportunity to get rid of her. “I’m scared” she says. Mohamed begins to cry and Kathreya goes to comfort him. “Who upset you so much?” she asks. “They mean nothing Mo, they mean nothing” says Kathreya.

Heaven and Hell has shown a lot of housemates true colours, I think Luke and Mikey are main backstabbers, Becs is just lazy. Feel sorry for Lisa, she worked so hard in the bike task she deserved to go to heaven.
