E4 Princess Nikki: A Whole Lot of Pooing Going On
In the wake of Nikki being dumped by Pete, will she be able to manage this week’s show? The good news is … well of course. She’s even bought a Pete Replacement, a chihuahua called Baby. We found out later in the show that Baby poo’ed on Nikki’s bed and cardigan - I fervently hope that wasn’t one of Pete’s things too.
And with all the newspaper inches devoted to the Pete and Nikki story, Nikki has been horrified to discover that some people actually don’t like her, and think she’s a horrible person. So, she’s resolved to be a better person, not so much like the Nikki we all know and. … er….love. How long will it last?
Hopefully, it will last long enough for her to cope with her first job this week, which could cope in handy for dealing with Baby - a kennelmaid. Her starting task? Cleaning up all the dog poo. ‘Why does every job you give me involve poo?’ she plaintively wailed. Because we know how you’ll react! To be fair, despite an in-depth discussion on the differences between dogs with diarrhoea and dogs with constipation, Nikki rose to the challenge. Could this new Nikki be here to stay?
Fortunately not. After weeks dealing with all types of plop, she went off it big time when she was confronted with … sweeping up a room full of doggy hair. ‘I’ve got a nose fulllllll of fuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!’ And that was that.
Next day, after being woken at 6am, we saw a tantrum of truly epic proportions. She proclaimed she was quitting the show, objected to being filmed in a state of distress (how bizarre is that?) and stormed off to reception. Amazingly (probably after a word with her agent) she changed her mind, and headed off to be a zoo keeper for the day. ‘Will I have to deal with the poo?’ By George, she’s got it.
And first poo of the day was Okapi Poo. She took to it, if not with enthusiasm, then at least with only a couple of tantrums (’I'm soooo coooooooold!!’ ‘You might be cold, Nikki, but there are dangerous animals behind the door you were about to open’) After clearing up enough poo to keep the keepers happy, she was led to Twilight World. Briefly. I’m not quite sure who was more scared, the cricket or Nikki - its too close to call.
As punishment for screaming, Nikki was sent to sex rats. Now, this isn’t quite as pervy as it sounds: pick the rat up by the base of its tail, it splays its back legs out, and you can see if its got testicles or not. (Oh, that brings back memories of having to sex a litter of mice, but that’s another story) Nikki was concerned ‘Will it jump up and strangle me?’ Its ok Nikki - I’ve googled it, and I can’t find any documented mention of death by rat strangulation. She was doing well, until her screaming was deemed to be too upsetting to the animals, and she was removed. But what else could she do?
She could be a Seal Impersonator. And what a natural she was, too. I can confirm thought - Nikki, yes, you did look like a giant turd. Fortunately not from anything suffering from diarrhoea.

Send the producers to clean up the next poo…that would be interesting…and throw in a few of her critics for good measure. Oh Yes and then dont forget to send invites to all Nikki’s fans, friends and family to enjoy the show live.
We love you and are proud of you Nikki
Good post Lynne! The poo thing’s getting a bit repetitive, although both Tabby and I have to admit to having a bit of sympathy for Nikki this week, especially since she managed to crack a smile at one point.
And no, Evelyn, we were not influenced by your bizarre infatuation with Nikki!
The problem is, I really want to watch Beauty And The Geek some week, but by the end of Princess Nikki I’m too beat! If anyone from E4’s reading, can I suggest a swap in the schedules?
i felt really sorry for nikki this week she is down enough without them giving her job’s like that to do.lets see nikki in a beauty salon which would suite nikki as she is great and with her being a model she want’s some clean work to do.nikki would do a lot better taking her own chat show that would be great for her. nikki is the best.
I thought the premise for the programme was for Nikki to be given jobs which tested her so why is it’s turning into a weekly shitfest? Nikki gamely donned the sealion suit, slobbed off anouncing to all feeding time but where were they, where were the sealions? There was no feeding time so another missed opportunity for some fun with Nikki. She’s still able to produce so many humourous moments with her droll and depreciating remarks but it’s a pity that Princess Nikki has stalled in the shit.
Are the producers of the show obsessed with excreta?
I agree with you Brad, she did try much harder this week, and there were even some glimpses of the ‘nicer Nikki’ - whether that was because of the negative comments from Pete’s friends, I don’t know.
I can’t see this being more than a single series to cash in on her Big Brother notoriety if they don’t extend their remit sometime soon.
So, the people have spoken. Princess Nikki producers, if you’re listening (and we think you are), can we have something more inventive than poo next week?
Let’s face it, at least we won’t be able to call the show a load of shit….
Brad, any bizarre behaviour towards Nikki is yours. Why do you watch the show and ‘tire your little mind out’ so that you cant watch the Geek show? What a GEEK
IF YOU DONT ENJOY IT DONT WATCH IT
Evelyn, I really don’t know how, as a huge Nikki fan, you can honestly say you enjoy watching her being put into these situations.
People who don’t particularly like Nikki (I’m fairly ambivalent) will watch it because its amusing to see her subjected to these things (although the poo joke is wearing thin).. so what exactly do you get out of it?
