It’s Day 19 in the Big Brother house, and in the wake of Benedict’s chair robbing antics last night, Big Brother has decided to punish the remaining housemates by removing all the chairs in the house.

O Benedict, you’ve been a very bad boy! Now go to my room…

Big Brother has even taken away the sofa and cushions from the smoking area, but, with a very admirable glass-half-full attitude, Luke A remarked that at least they’d left the toilet seats.

Oo but maybe he spoke too soon, as it appears Conor did last night when he ranted about Benedict taking the chair.

A furious Conor told his fellow housemates, “We shouldn’t have let him leave with the chair, I should’ve stopped him…

“I bet we get punished now.”

House sage Shievonne told Conor to stop saying that or it’d give Big Brother ideas, and evidently, it did.

When Luke S, who’s still fuming over Benedict’s curry power prank, saw the much changed house, he said, “That’s hilarious. I like the way Big Brother thinks.”

Sure you do Luke, sure you do.

And after a scan around, he added, “Every single chair… has gone.”

Honestly, you can get nothing past these masterminds.

Actually, this reminds me of a joke that used to really crack me up. Still does if I’m honest. Here it is…

Local paper’s headline reads: “Theft of WCs from local constabulary, police say they have nothing to go on.”

Ah, the simple pleasures in life are often the best.

Anywho, another big event in the house today though is Ashleigh’s birthday, and via BBLIVE on Twitter, we’ve learned that so far, Becky has offered up happy birthday greetings in the form of a smiley face that she “fashioned from available items.”

We’ll keep you posted on what else happens for Ashleigh’s big day.
