For today’s Celebrity Big Brother task Coolio, La Toya and Verne – the three American housemates – will take part in a Best of British Quiz and will be given two hours in which to learn as much as possible from their fellow housemates on the following subjects:

o British Heroes
o Cockney Rhyming Slang
o British Place Names
o The Queen’s English

Throughout the two hour tutorial period, Big Brother will deliver various British delicacies, via the hatch in order for Coolio, La Toya and Verne to experience the flavour of Britain.

Later today the three American Housemates will be called to the Task Room where they will receive a traditional British roast dinner and listen to some traditional British music in order to focus their minds for the Best of British quiz.

However, once the Americans are locked in the task room, eating their roast dinner, the remaining housemates will discover that they will also play a role in the quiz. They must each wear an all-in-one shiny suit containing remotely controlled muscle stimulator pads.

Each time Coolio, La Toya and Verne provide an incorrect answer a buzzer will sound and remaining housemates will receive a mild shock.

Coolio, La Toya and Verne will be asked a total of 50 questions;

o 10 questions on British Heroes
o 10 questions on Cockney Rhyming Slang
o 10 questions on British Place Names
o 10 questions on the Queen’s English
o Plus 10 questions on a mystery subject – their fellow housemates.

If the three American Housemates successfully answer 30 or more questions correctly then housemates will pass the task and receive 3 tokens.
