Big brother twins, Sam and Amanda Marchant have become the latest housemates to become safe from eviction this week.
Housemates were faced with an assault course task yesterday. They had to complete the course, then train to improve their strength and agility, before tackling the course for a second time.
Sam and Amanda cut their time by 46 per cent and gained immunity from this week’s eviction vote, becoming “body gurus”.
Don’t forget to tell us who you would like to see up for eviction this week!
A bit of a shocker! The two halfway housemates that were among the first to join the main house, have become the first to be evicted.
From a personal point of view, I can’t understand why anyone would want to keep Tracey in. She is boring, arrogant, annoying……did I mention arrogant?
But then again, i didn’t vote, so I guess I can’t complain!

Presenting the 8am-10am slot means Glyn has to get to bed early. “I had to be up at 5.15am so I went to bed at 10pm last night to make sure I got up. The waking up is a bit difficult but you get used to it.”
And he is really enjoying the chance to work in Cardiff.
He said, “It’s stable. Since I left the Big Brother house I have been living for six nights of the week in different parts of the country. Now I am in Cardiff for a week and I have a really good hotel with an upgrade to a flat section.”
Glyn will follow his television stint with a week of presenting on Radio Cymru.

Pete Bennett has sensationally revealed to The Daily Star that some of his relationship with fellow Big Brother contestant, Nikki Grahame, was a stunt for publicity purposes.
After reading stories about his rumoured break up with new girlfriend Gemma and the revival of his and Nikkis relationship, Pete fumed:
“I’m fed up with being linked back to Nikki. We wouldn’t have met if it wasn’t for Big Brother, and now I want to move on with my life and forget all about it.
“I really fell for Nikki in the house. I needed her there and I was seriously upset when she was taken out. I had real feelings for her and we had something when I came out.
“But then I introduced her to my friends and she was horrific. A few drinks and she really insulted them. It was so awful. I knew then I had to finish it.
“We only carried on for the publicity. We had no relationship at all after that.
“The last thing me and Gemma need now is the papers saying me and Nikki are meeting up again. There’s no way I ever want to see that woman again. Perhaps we can be friends again in the future, but not now.
“I really love Gemma, she’s my woman. I want to be with her and I don’t want anything or anyone coming between us.�

Pete Bennett has revealed to the Daily Star today how guilty he feels over his recent break up with fellow Big Brother star Nikki Grahame.
Pete reportedly said: “I’m really sorry if I hurt Nikki. It upsets me to think everyone thinks badly of me over this. I ended it because I didn’t want to hurt her more. I was just being honest.
“Nikki and I just aren’t compatible. I do love her to bits but I don’t think it could ever work.
“This is all spiralling out of control. I should have kept my mouth shut about our sex life. Everything got on top of me and the added problems with our relationship were stressing me out.
“I felt sick the night it ended and I was very emotional. It wasn’t an easy thing to do.
“I’m not a coward and I wouldn’t have ended our relationship over the phone by choice, but Nikki called and pretty much asked what was up.
“I’d like to stay friends. I haven’t heard from her, but I hope things can get better.�
