So true and its meant to be us men that are shallow. What does it say about how women want to be treated if he got cheered after his VT. Just like Liam last year, he reats women terribly but they will all support him because "HE IS FIT" |

Mario's one of my favourites at the moment. He didn't try to make look Steph look bad he was just angry at her for not having more consideration for Mikey. He definitely over-reacted but then he admitted that himself. Steph, on the other hand, went out of her way to criticize Mario to anyone who would listen 
As usual, I'm finding myself in agreement with Aisleyne on all counts

Mario could not have said some of the stuff he has said since the eviction if they had heard the crowd and the show is much better for it.

Posts: 3045
Location: Stoke-on-Trent | If Aisleyne is right about Alex fancying Rex then I have no idea how a womans mind works. The way I see it is 2 people stood up to Alex last week, Steph and Rex. Stephanie was Alex's first target and now she has Rex in her sights. I think Aisleyne's second thought that Alex is really nasty is closer to the mark. Mario being called to the diary room at the time he was, was really funny and BB saved the viewers from having to put up watching his late night antics. |

| Once again, she's got it pretty much nailed on. Alexandra to go, because she's a nasty bully and has to be punished for it. Mario - more of a deluded prat than a bully. However I did think Luke's DR reasons for his nomination were spot-on. Time to stop patronising Mikey who appears to be able to look after himself and isn't short of giving opinions himself.

I'm not convinced about Dale's secret girlfriend. I think if he had one he probably broke up with her before the house. Maybe I'm being naive but he seems pretty genuine to me.
I don't agree with Ash about Alex secretly fancying Rex, though. If anything, I think she has a thing for Mohammed which is why she was so annoyed with yesterday.

| Aisleyne's really mad at Alex! Good to hear. I was a bit worried her famed 'forgiveness' might kick in but there's been no sign of it here. Alex has not apologised or accepted any wrongdoing. Until that happens, there can be no forgiveness! Well said Ash and I'm sure you're not the only one shocked by Alex's behaviour.

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | I'm also glad to see Aisleyne shares my dislike of Sylvia.
I'm beginning to think she has a bit of Makosi about her. I think a lot of what she does is entirely calculated for effect. I'm not usually cynical about housemates but I'm seriously starting to wonder when it comes to Sylvia. I suspect the whole throwing herself at Stuart thing is a calculated attempt to bag herself her own BB couple story line rather than a genuine infatuation and the way she broke down crying because she was apparently singled-out by Mikey could very well have been a tactic to make Mikey look bad while deflecting the blame for her behaviour from off herself.
In any case, whether she's genuine or not she is extremely selfish. The way she keeps boasting about how she will do what she wants regardless of how it might affect others in the house winds me up no end
Regards
Julian

| Ash turns on Sylvia. Can't say I'm surprised. Sylvia's been stirring it up for a while now and has picked on Mohammed mostly. I didn't see last night's highlights but if she was picking on Mikey because of his blindness that's a bit low. I know you can have a joke about a disability but to use it against someone is unfair. 'House bitch' seems an apposite description. Mind you I remember when Aisleyne described herself as the 'house bitch' once! I just think Sylvia's not quite self-deprecating enough to admit to that tag! Mind you for me, its still Mario OUT!

Location: Holland | i think Ash is right about Slyvia becomin the house bitch. she is grrr cant stand her! she only had a go at mikey because she had an audience you can tell because she stopped but when dennis walked in she started again! and yesterday really made me laugh. bitching about Mo when he was at the door, but the other housemates made me laugh they also had something to say about Mo behind his back which didnt suprise me but when Mo walked in they sh** themselves and stopped and didnt say anything. when Mo walked out dont know who it was but something shouted Bye. its like yeah say something when he's gone! just goes 2 show how bitcy this years house is! its doing my head in! |

I've had reservations about Luke from the start but I'm not sure I see anything particularly hateful about him
I think he's one of the most entertaining housemates this year. He's funny and charismatic and makes great diary room footage. I can also identify with his lack of vices (smoking, drinking, swearing etc.).
What concerns me most is his suspicions of others. Several times he's been far too willing to believe the worst about people. Most recently, his assertion that Rachel is being too nice to be genuine and has some sort of game plan going on 
I would also agree with Aisleyne about not liking the way he was ok with Sylvia's hiding of food. I don't think it's too hypocritical with the custard creams, though because it was a question of scale. You can turn a blind eye to the odd biscuit or packet of crisps but the number of custard creams apparently missing was much more than previous incidents.

Tonight after they announced the nomination results Luke was saying Sylvia won't go and that she is entertaining yet he nominated her. Glad to see Aisleyne has spotted his nasty side.

Location: Stoke-on-Trent | Quite a detailed blog today. Mind you last nights highlights show was full of incident. I am surprised Aisleyne did not pick up on Rachel and Darnell catching on to Luke and his 2 faced ways as it looked like Luke was getting away with it. I can sympathise with Aisleyne and her point about sitting in the same room whilst nominations take place but it does make the live feed more interesting if they can move around rather than sitting in one room for hours on end. Aisleyne will be happy with this weeks eviction though, Sylvia is toast on Friday.

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | I am surprised Aisleyne did not pick up on Rachel and Darnell catching on to Luke and his 2 faced ways as it looked like Luke was getting away with it.
I've heard this mentioned a few times but I keep feeling I must be missing something because I don't recall anything particularly 2-faced about Luke's behaviour?
Rachel has noticed him flitting around from group to group but it's just a feeling she has that maybe he's not on the level. She hasn't seen anything specific and I can't think of anything specific
While it's true that he's sympathized with Sylvia after nominating her, he says in the diary room that he feels a bit bad about it but it's the nature of the game. I'm actually inclined to agree because the alternative would be to either start an argument with Sylvia or avoid her and both would make it painfully obvious that he nominated her and turn himself into a target. I remember Aisleyne's epiphany with Michael after she came back from the house next door in which she pretty much comes to the same conclusion. It's not being two-faced when you're nice to people you nominate or people you have doubts about because, at the end of the day, there's nothing to be gained by causing hard feelings and if it's your nature to want to get along with people then you're actually 'keeping it real' by doing just that regardless of your actual feelings towards them.
Now if Luke is trying to influence people by giving different opinions about housemates depending on who he's talking to then that's another story. It wouldn't surprise me but unless there's evidence of it I'm prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt.
As for Darnell, I found his rant at Luke very disturbing. He went crashing down in my estimation from that little incident as I thought he was verging on the hysterical at times
Regards
Julian

Location: Stoke-on-Trent | Once Darnell gets in his stride he can be full on but once you get past the persona he speaks a lot of sense. He summed up Luke to perfection with what he said. Luke stokes the fire between the others so that they fight amongst themselves and he stands back while they nominate each other. Lukes face spoke volumes when Darnell said what he did. He is a gameplayer and there is nothing wrong with that but if a gameplayer gets caught then they lose.

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | It was kind of ironic, Rachel injuring herself after Mario had specifically selected her for being someone least likely to injure herself but, to be fair, I watched that whole selection process live and I thought Mario did an extremely good job. He focused the discussion very well, made all the right choices for all the right reasons and ensured that he had the concensus of the group throughout.
For all that he comes across as pompous at times I can definitely believe he's a competent manager back home.
To be honest, while I can sympathise with Rebecca (it's not like I wasn't always the last one picked when choosing sides for PE at school ), I thought her reaction was a bit petulant and immature, to be honest. It went on for much longer than shown on the highlights and I just kept thinking "get a grip". I agree with Mario, and the majority of the housemates, that for a task involving the food budget it should be about choosing the best people for the job and not about making individual people feel good about themselves. If they'd failed, far more people would have suffered on basic rations than just a slight knock to Rebecca's self-esteem

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | I agree with Ash about Luke and Sylvia but I disagree about Jen and Dale. Although Jen probably does fancy Stuart, I don't think she's the type for flings. Unless the guy is willing to commit to a long term relationship she's never going to go there.
I think the cooling off with Dale is entirely for the cameras and for her peace of mind in the house. BB couples are generally looked upon very cynically by the public and even when they're real they serve to isolate the people involved away from the rest of the housemates. Her getting close to Stuart could very well be calculated to make people think that she and Dale aren't a couple but I'm not buying it, to be honest. Did you hear Dale trying to insist that there's nothing going on between him and Jen last night? I'm sure he's only saying that because that's the story they've agreed to put out.
Jen might be physically attracted to Stuart, but I reckon her heart is still telling her Dale and her head (which she tends to follow more often) is telling her not to get involved with either of them until they're on the outside.
I also would not be at all surprised if Stuart was selected specifically as a love interest for Jennifer. He ticks all the boxes even down to being a single parent and BB take far too much care over selection for that to be a complete coincidence. He's basically just male eye-candy and I'm sure they had plenty to choose from

Julian

Still, I'm obviously in a minority at the moment. I'd like to say that time will tell but it probably won't. Jen is almost certainly up tomorrow and I don't see much saving her if that happens

She will be isolated next week unless the likes of Mohammed, Rex and Darnell are very forgiving. I think Dale and Stuart will not have much to do with Beccy and Luke once Jen has gone. |

I suppose the difference is Ash heard her name several times, while all he's heard is someone else's account of someone shouting something that might have contained a noise a bit like "stu". It looked like he was missing his kid and this is the real reason its been getting to him.

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | Loving the blog today. I agreed with everything. I too have steadfastly refused to dislike Mario for quite a while but I'm finding it harder all the time. He's getting far too full of himself lately. Incidentally, I've been decoding his tattoos recently. On one arm he has his daughter's birthday and the number of his Freemason Lodge and on the other arm he has his other daughter's birthday and his blood group (O positive)!

It must be Mario using the power of his subconscious mind to hide Aisleyne's negative comments from the general public.
OTOH, it might just be someone at Reveal who can't hack a bit of HTML

So if he gets in a car crash, he'll be able to communicate his blood group to the paramedics, identify his nearest and dearest and tell the police that if it was his fault, they'll have to let him off (allegedly).... |

I'm glad Aisleyne has got Mario fully weighed up now. And I sense that she's willing Lisa to seize the opportunity, like she did, to learn about herself from the BB experience and then really change her life for the better.
And as for her noting Luke's reaction to the nominations- you don't suppose she checked out a certain post on the BB9 thread last night do you?

| Lisa looked like a robot that was starting to rebel yesterday. She's got a bug in her programming and its starting to turn her against Mario - at least until the early hours when she began to fall into line with him again. I reckon he took her apart when the cameras were trained elsewhere and re-programmed her!

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | I agree with Ash that there's a danger people won't nominate Rebecca now they think she's popular in case they find themselves up against her. I don't think it will stop Rex because he wants to go but it might give the others pause
I'm quite sure the kiss between Rebecca and Luke was genuine but I don't see it going anywhere. They are obviously very fond of each other and I doubt Luke would protest too much if Rebecca wanted to pursue things but I don't think Rebecca wants that kind of relationship with Luke.
I think Luke voted for Darnell because he realized he didn't want the responsibility of head of house. In fact, I seem to remember hearing him say just that to Rebecca before the voting. I think he was also pretty sure he wouldn't win by then as he was becoming increasingly disillusioned by the lack of respect he was getting. I'm not so sure about Darnell. I think it's Darnell's usual lack of faith in himself, I think he genuinely thought Dale would do a better job. Or, possibly, he didn't realize he was allowed to vote for himself!
It's a shame they cut Darnell's speech down on the highlights. It was much more coherent in the C4 News article!

I don't know who Rab C Nesbitt is but I know what Ash means, Mikey does get a little over-excited :D
I disagree about Rex. I think he genuinely wants to go. He won't walk because that's an admission of failure and Rex is too proud for that. Also, it would mean he wouldn't get his interview with Davina and would possibly jeopardize other entitlements such as BBLB. He wants to go but he wants to go through the front door, not the back.
I think it's highly likely that Belinda will go over Rex (the bookies certainly think so). It would be fairer to evict Rex who wants to go over Belinda who has only been there for a short time and Rex does have a mean streak but, on the other hand, Belinda nominated Rachel and Rex targeted two people who dislike Rachel with his nominations so, for a Rachel fan such as myself it would probably be better, tactically, to keep Rex in!

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | To be fair, several hell housemates said the cycle task would be easy too but it turned out more difficult because the bikes were designed to automatically step up the resistance when simulating hills and the riders had to learn how to use the gears properly to help with this.
Belinda couldn't even reach the pedals if she sat on the seat so I can understand why it would have been particularly hard. I do think she may have been milking things a bit, though. Particularly given that she didn't start getting hysterical until after she was in the main area
I think the eating task was pretty bad as well. Both Kathreya and Rex made themselves sick trying to pass it.
The highlight show didn't really do justice to Lisa and Stuart in that cycle task, though (particularly Lisa). Watching live on Tuesday I got the impression that Lisa and Stuart were doing the vast majority of the cycling. It was only because one of the bikes broke that BB changed the rules and insisted everyone do at least one 30 minute shift. They would never have passed if it wasn't for those two.
As for keeping Rex in to annoy the housemates I can't help thinking that Belinda would be more annoying to them. Still, I'd be amazed if Rex went on Friday.

Location: Stoke-on-Trent | Mikey did pull his weight in the cycling task as well. He did spend quite a longtime on the bike allowing Stu and Lisa a chance to rest. The task as a whole was designed for the housemates to fail though and yo be on a basic budget again. If the bike did not break they would have had no chance of doing the full distance. The wine tasting and food eating were also impossible. That won't stop Luke blaming individuals though despite him taking no part at all but making a miraculous recovery just in time for his party.

The way he's been going lately it's like he's deliberately trying to get himself nominated Regards Julian I watched the Darnell incident live and it was meant to be fun but it was a mistake by Darnell as the joke obviously fell flat. He did apologise to Sara first thing the following morning but the damage may have already been done. He is bound to be up next week anyway after his spell as HOH but will probably be safe unless he is up against a really strong character such as Kat. Hopefully it will not be just housemates from Heaven up for eviction.

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | I agree with Ash about Dale's choices. I know he's been getting closer to Rex lately but I think it was out of order picking Rex for a second term or Rebecca when Lisa deserved to be in heaven much more. He'd also done a deal with Maysoon to bring Sara across but reneged in the end.
I think the thing between Dale and Mo was a complete over-reaction on Mo's part. Dale made a joke about the toothbrush being used to clean the floor or something, Rebecca joined in the joke and Mo took it as a personal attack and started getting aggressive over it. I thought Dale handled it reasonably well, to be honest.
I don't think there's any truth behind Darnell's paranoia. Darnell is his own worst enemy, seeing plots against him that aren't there, turning on his friends and wallowiing in self-pity at the drop of a hat. Rachel, Kat, Maysoon and Mo were pretty much doing an intervention on him on Friday night, trying to get him to have more faith in himself and to stop pushing his friends away. Maysoon was particularly insightful, I thought. She's another, apparently boring housemate, who I'm starting to like quite a lot.

He is his own worst enemy and just needs to relax. Generally he is a decent bloke who makes the right decisions and sticks up for who he sees as the minority to make sure they are treated fairly but his people skills are a bit lacking and he does not always go about things the right way when making his point. If the rumours are correct regarding nominations then he should get the reassurance he needs to realise that people like him for who he is and he should relax and enjoy the rest of his BB experience.

I agree with Ash over Dale. It's all very well saying you're trying to look selfish in order to get nominated but, by doing that, he actually was being selfish because he was still putting his own needs above the others
I notice Ash has mentioned Rachel favourably at last - yay

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | If Ash wants to know whether Rachel's personality is any different on the outside world she only has to ask Imogen. I guess they've not discussed her after all
As far as being the loudest in her audition it wouldn't surprise me. Her audition video showed a pretty loud and relentless chatterbox, but you're always going to be performing in an audition. How you are in the house is usually the more reliable indicator of who you are (as was well demonstrated by Aisleyne herself!).
Besides, Bex didn't just say she was the loudest she implied that Rachel had pretty much shouted down the whole room - indicating that she's not the shrinking violet she appears to be. I doubt that she silenced the room through being loud but I've never really thought of Rachel as a shrinking violet anyway. She can stand up for what's right if she thinks it's important enough (as she showed with Alex during chip-gate).

Julian

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | Personally I don't think Rachel needs to come out of her shell as I don't think she's in one. I think the housemates call her boring because she's not interested in picking arguments or telling everyone who she dislikes but she's not exactly subdued around the house. If anything, it was because she was so upbeat and enthusiastic about everything that she got branded a fake in the first place
Apparently Rex has now accused her of being fake again (after the heaven housemates saw everyone's audition videos). He was talking with Stuart in the nomination box about wanting to nominate Rachel and Maysoon but I think they decided on Luke and Dale in the end (probably to give Dale the chance to get the eviction he's hoping for). Rex is the one I really can't decide if I like or not at the moment. Sometimes I really like his honesty and straight-forward approach but the way he casually betrays someone who has shown him nothing but kindness and appreciation is hard to overlook.
I think it will be Dale and Luke up this week.

Julian

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | I have to agree about the secret mission. Dale and Maysoon were brilliant in pulling off the theft. Unfortunately, Dale was pretty hopeless when it came to not giving himself away during the investigation
I must say, with all due respect to Rex's girlfriend, she didn't seem to be the stunner Rex had been describing. Unlike number six
There are things I like about Rex and things I dislike about Rex. I'm not entirely convinced he's the monster that Grace Dent has him pegged as and the psychologist on BBLB was just spouting more of the usual unsubstantiated techno-babble nonsense that BB guest psychologists tend to specialize in. However, he's definitely not in my good books at the moment.
Apparently he has been given charge of deciding the Shopping List this week and has just ordered tea, coffee, milk, sugar, one pack of custard creams, four normal tokens and 57 Special Prize tokens! This is the dilemma of Rex: on the one hand it's brilliantly funny and bold and, on the other hand, he's risking a week of misery for everyone just for the sake of his own amusement. He's a very funny guy but he has absolutely no conscience whatsoever.

Today's blog is now up and Ash thinks it's between Luke and Rachel. She's really not a fan of Rachel is she?
If the bookies are anything to go by it's not between anybody. Luke is a dead cert to go!
After that it's Mohammed closely followed by Rex and Dale.

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | I really don't blame Rex at all for not jumping over the fence. Deliberately giving up his suitcase for the rest of his stay would have been a pointless gesture. He also warned Nicole not to do it because he knew she wouldn't want to be without her own case. It was only after everyone kept urging her on, convinced that she, as a special prize, would be allowed that he helped her over.
I do think that crying over the suitcase seems a little wimpy but it's a very scary thing going into the BB house at the best of times and newcomers are almost always resented. To have to face such a weird situation without even being able to assert her own identity in terms of her own clothes and makeup just makes her feel all the more vulnerable.
I think Rex did try to sabotage the task. I think he was trying to make it credible rather than a deliberate fail.but he just underestimated how bad some of the others would be and he certainly hadn't realized that there were so few places in Hell.
Sara fancies Stuart, she's just friends with Darnell. Apparently Darnell tried to get into bed with Sara last night but she told him he was scaring her and ran to Stuart's bed. Darnell was so mortified by the rejection that he jumped the divide and went to sleep on a couch in Hell! I do think she'd been sending mixed signals, though

I do like Darnell and it would be good to think that the affirmation of a BB win would do wonders for his self-esteem. I can't help feeling, though, that if he did win he'd find some way of talking himself out of feeling good about it

| It was pretty much inevitable that "Rachel's Choice" would set Aisleyne's compassion bells ringing.
I'd love to see her parachute into the house just to tell Darnell to "Fix up - Look sharp nanananananana". |

Yeah, I can imagine him with Davina now – "It doesn't mean anything dude. I mean seriously dude, it's like people only vote on these shows if they feel sorry for you man. It's like a sympathy vote or something. Makes me feel so small dude, like I won't be able to show my face in public ever again. And, plus, nobody respects you in the music business once you've been on Big Brother, man, you know. Like, all that cookie love s**t, and stuff. I mean, seriously, what was I THINKING…"

very true, he is the type of person that if he went into a room of 100 people and they were asked whether they thought Darnell was great, and 99 said yes and 1 just said "hes OK I suppose", the 99 wouldnt matter to Darnell, just the 1 that didnt and he would spent hours wondering what he had done so wrong |

I got the impression that Rachel was originally completely unaware that washing up was prohibited to heaven housemates. She looked really surprised when BB told her she shouldn't be doing it. I have to say I hadn't realized that was a rule either!
There's a news item on the website indicating that she has now deliberately washed up in defiance of BB, which I think is brilliant! It should be interesting to see what punishment they come up with
http://www.channel4.com/bigbrother/news/newsstory.jsp?id=12400&posi...
That last comment by Aisleyne seems to be suggesting that Rex was right when he implied that nobody wanted Rachel around until she got the lighter belt. I'm hoping she didn't actually mean that

From what I've read on the forums, there seem to be a lot of similarities between Aisleyne and Rachel - in their treatment of others and the unfair treatment (Aisleyne's was mostly behind her back) they receive from other housemates. |

Yes, a lot of what I like about Rachel are traits she shares with Aisleyne. They're both very selfless, very giving, very loyal and very caring people and, yes, it does seem like a lot of people she thought were her friends have turned on her lately. Rachel does seem to have an uncanny ability to shake it all off and stay cheerful, though. People call her weak but she keeps bouncing back no matter what abuse is hurled at her.
She's a real-life Polyanna

| Yes, her customary compassion for the victim (just about!) over-rules her eye-for-the-guy there, dunnit?
Though she does seem to think it'll be Rachel who goes tomorrow. Hope she's wrong on that.
If Stuart does leave, I wonder if she'll use her connections and networking skills to gain an early "introduction" - just to talk eye make-up, of course... |

Not that I would want to discourage the sentiment but, in fairness to Aisleyne, all she said was she'd prefer Rachel to survive eviction against Stuart because she feels sorry for her. I don't get the impression Ash is backing Rachel to win the whole thing

I think Lisa got the measure of him recently when she said he was on a mission to prove something. He's always preaching and while he gets it right a lot of the time he gets it wrong a lot of the time too. Sometimes you've got to give people the benefit of the doubt

| I was led to believe by posts early in the series that Rex was a man of integrity. Now apparently he is a control freak. It could be that his behaviour is a result of the awkward situation in which he has been put by BB. I would hate to be a BB housemate and have my other half come into the house. Every couple has things that they need to discuss in private. I would hate to be watching BB and listening to these conversations. If Rex is a man of integrity (By now you all may realise I know nothing about him), he will want the time to pass quickly and will be as discreet as possible about issues between him and his girlfriend. What I suspect is more likely to happen is for one of them or both of them to leave early and sell the sordid details of their relationship to the tabloids and gossip mags. Anyone not bored with their relationship now will be bored to death by Christmas. |

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | Rex isn't interested in selling to the tabloids, he's loaded. His relationship with Nicole is far more important to him than BB or tabloid stories and Nicole knows where her bread is buttered. Having said that, if they both can benefit from the media then Rex is savvy enough to make the most of the opportunity.
Rex has always admitted to being a control-freak. He went on BB to try to curb that side of himself and, given his controlling tendencies, he's managed to show quite a bit of restraint. At least with his relationship with BB he's always given due deference to BB and its rules and dealt with everything that BB has thrown at him with equanimity and humour.
Nicole is his Achilles' heel, however. He is, perhaps, too demanding of her but it's clear he's besotted with her and wants nothing more than to make her happy. Nicole is selfish, spoilt and moody. Sometimes she has a valid reason for being upset with Rex sometimes not but the way she handles it is extremely immature.
Rex's main problem in the eyes of the public is the way he apparently bullies people. Particularly Rachel who is, deservedly imo, the internet's sweetheart. Personally, I think that Rex just enjoys a bit of mischievous teasing and winding up and Rachel certainly seems to be taking it that way. There have been a couple of occasions where Rex has been really annoyed at Rachel and the digs have become more prolonged and heartfelt than normal. I think he has a lot to answer for for that, but, in general, I don't think he's that bad a bloke.
Regards
Julian

Rex is an odious creep and if Nicole does not dump him then I have little sympathy for her if he carries on making her unhappy. |

True, but you can be besotted by possessions
I'm not a Rex fan (there's only two or three people I'd prefer to go before him) but there's good and bad in everyone. Rex went off the rails before BB. He obviously had problems with Nicole and with himself when he went to the States. Whether he was unfaithful is not proven by the fact that there are kiss and tell stories in the Sun about him but, even if they were true, I do think he is bending over backwards to dote on her now. His manner is abrasive and controlling but I do think he's trying.
The point I was really trying to make was that, whatever else you may think of him, I don't think he's guilty of wanting to exploit their relationship for the publicity which is what boldjohn was objecting to.

I suppose we will find that out when they leave. I'm only going on what I read, so I could well be talking nonsense. What I have read about is a lot of dirty linen being aired in public. They could have been more discreet. The frequency of their arguments is what fuels my suspicions that they are playing to the cameras.

The reason people liked Rex at first was because we thought he didnt care and was being rude just to be put up for nomination as that was what he had been saying. Therefore we enjoyed it, thinking it was some clever way of dealing with the whole experience. However a bit before Nicole came in he started to at best pester some, especially Rachel, who had done nothing wrong to him. It wasnt just what he said it was the fact that it was a continued assault for 2 hours each time. Many started to give up on him then, but even then there was a thought that maybe he was doing it to get nominated to get his g/f into the house. However that doubt was cleared up as soon as she did. Instead of changing he remained the same and people realised that he wasnt acting because he didnt care and he wanted to be nominated, he was behaving that way because he really was that bad. |

I'm really really really sorry here everyone but unfortunately I have to agree with prem here. Sorry. He doesnt love her, he sees her as his, and doesnt treat her with any respect. What he doesnt tell the others when he goes out after upsetting her, is that time after time after time he asks her to tell him about whats been going on outside even though he knows she cant. He uses that as an excuse, along with many other things, to claim she has been unfaithful to him, whereas the truth seems to be he is the one being unfaithful, but he always excuses that behaviour as he was "in a bad place". Unfortunately unless she gets away from him her life will be ruined and its good to see that Ais sees that and hinted it in her blog today. Nicole is far from perfect but has a chance to improve herself as she grows up (she is only 19), but if she stays with Rex she will never get a chance |

I doubt they will, but I hope she does and that will make her enough to make her feel she can support herself and therefore get away from him. Unfortunately I think she is going to come out to a very bad reception that isnt really deserved. actually it never is, but in this case it might have lasting damage on someone who emotionally is quite frail and it might just end up with her just dissappearing into the background afterwards. Normally not a bad thing but she might need to become more independent. |

I'm quite sure that the song (which was probably one of Darnell's creations) was just a general observation about how what you see in the highlight show is not the whole story.

I think it was grossly unfair of Nicole to come into the house harbouring that kind of resentment and then beating him up about it without ever being in a position to tell him what it is she suspects him of or for him to defend himself.
She was the one who told him to stay away and, given how much drink he had had, I can quite imagine how an argument would have ensued if he'd gone to her. I think it was a judgement call and I'm not sure there was anything he could have done that would have worked any better.

It's unlikely enough that he'd write a song in the first place (I'm pretty sure it was one of Darnells). If he had, it's extremely unlikely that he would have written a song about his perceived infidelity on national TV. The chances that he would have then sung that song to his girlfriend is so unlikely as to make unlikely seem likely
Even if all of this unlikeliness actually happened, what the song actually says is don't believe what you see which, if it refers to infidelity, is basically saying that there was none!

Quite a drastic change of opinion from Ash. I gather that several Darnell fans have deserted him in the same manner that fans of Rex did. Is there anyone in that house who wants to hold onto their support? Does this mean that Bradley wins the Darnell- Sarah debate? |

Location: Stoke-on-Trent | I have not watched much BB since Friday night so don't know what has gone on apart from what I have read in the blog. I will say one thing though that the guys never assumed anything about Sara, she did say herself earlier in the series that she had "been with loads of men". It does not give a green light to treat her badly but in this case they did not assume anything.

Cant agree with you. saying that you have a lot of sexual partners in the past means nothing. For one, someone saying it might have a totally different thought to exactly what a lot is? Some might think 10 is? It has nothing to do with the matter at all. Interestingly they seemed to have been warned last night and I find it strange it took them a day to do that. Maybe they were waiting for the viewers response to it.
However none of this matters, whether she has or hasnt had many sexual partners, did Mario claim to have had loads (I'm not sure about that) but several in previous series have but that wasnt used as an excuse for this type of behaviour. And why? Because they were men. There simply is no excuse to treat her the way they have and say the things they have in front of her and even worse behind her back. Those three idiots deserve any flak, unfortunately and amazingly they still have their fans, which I find more depressing than their behaviour.
Its time our society grew up and realised women have just as much right to a sex life as men do without being labelled. Even the whole flirting nonsense is just that. Mo has been a much worst flirt than she has, although he has been terrible at it, and has even harassed Rachel to get into bed with her (amazingly not shown on the h/ls or dealt with). Rex is something that I better not say on a public forum and Darnell flirts much worse than Sara and even tries it on with women who are so drunk they can hardly speak.
There are no excuses, they are just throwbacks to a time we had hoped had finished. The shame is some make excuses and still support them.
BTW Premier, although I'm answering your post, please rest assured I'm not suggesting you, just making general comments. Although you shouldnt say she has had lots of sexual partners, then say its not an excuse..... very football manager of you |

Quite a drastic change of opinion from Ash. I gather that several Darnell fans have deserted him in the same manner that fans of Rex did. Is there anyone in that house who wants to hold onto their support? Does this mean that Bradley wins the Darnell- Sarah debate?
as nice as that maybe for you to say, but when did Ais become the judge? |

Location: Edgware, Middlesex | It wasn't about assuming things it was about making crude jokes about her sleeping with thousands of men, enough to fill a manual etc. etc. Then calling her a sl** and an ugly bitch.
This was during a sustained session intended to give her a hard time.
Rex may have been joking but Darnell did it specifically to hurt her. Even Mo joined in at one point. It wasn't pleasant, and it wasn't excusable no matter how many men she may or may not have admitted to having slept with in an earlier conversation.

and as we saw with the h/ls when Rachel was harassed by Rex, because of the time allowed it didnt seem so bad as it was only shown for a couple of minutes, whereas it went on for at least 2 hours each time. I can only imagine how long and how bad this bullying went on for. |

saying alot as I explained doesnt mean alot. It depends on what you define as a lot. Besides as I keep on finding out what she says and what is reported as she says are quite often different. However the point is that she was accused of being a sl*t having 9000 sexual partners, etc etc. Her saying she has had a lot of partner is in no way the same thing nor is it anyway a number or an excuse for the behaviour or a clear indication of how many she has actually had. Nor is it, most importantly anything to use against someone, a point that seems to be missed. If a man said he had had a lot of sexual partners that would be the end of it.
Unfortunately people are applying standards that thankfully for most disappeared many years ago. Women are allowed just as much of a sex life as men are and should not be attack for it. Thats the facts and unfortunately too many people are being hypocritical and sexist about it, I'm afraid. Women have the same rights as men be they in the workforce or what they do in their soial life, and shouldnt be labelled by a bunch of idiots that are lucky if they arent virgins.
I suggest you might want to watch oer the last few days h/ls (goodness knows how bad and long an attack it has been in real time) and she for yourself. Unfortunately because she, similiar to Darnell in that she lacks confidence (but shows it in a completely different and less aggressive manner) she feels the need to defend herself instead of just telling them where they should go.
It took truly disgusting scenes for BB finally to act on something that these throwbacks have been doing for weeks (shame Mo wasnt held to account as well). Its not just the words its the badgering and the way they refuse to allow her to defend herself. You saw that with Rachel when Rex did it to her, he wouldnt allow her to say anything and it was nasty. Well if you had seen the stuff, you would have seen this was worse, much worse, because she was constantly being attacked on all sides with no support from anyone.

It's been interesting how opinions have changed on Sarah. I don't think she'll survive this week though. |

Darnell almost walked, Mikey has been having a real go at Rex and coming across as very bitter, to be honest.
It might just help Rachel's cause if the rest of the competition melt down!

its very close, but interestingly every poll I've seen bar one has Lisa going and last week Lisa was more favourite to go than sara, yet the betting has Sara favourite to go???
Personally I think it should be lisa slight favourite, but it could go either way and I doubt after winning £25,000 last night, either will mind too much |

No its OK Julian, prem and I always disagree but we still love each other and after a period of time Prem realises I was right all along
Seriously dont worry mate, we are engaged in lively debate thats all. I've said worse to him about Stoke, who I had to congratulate him for luckily beating Villa last weekend and therfore already equaling Derby's whole season total of wins (hi Boldjohn, happy anniversary for the 17th September ) |

question is will they make it to the 1st anniversary or will the players wonder why they were paid more this week and "what does a win bonus mean?" |

I've said worse to him about Stoke, who I had to congratulate him for luckily beating Villa last weekend and therfore already equaling Derby's whole season total of wins (hi Boldjohn, happy anniversary for the 17th September ) And if you ever want to watch it again just let me know, I have it on DVD. |

This is starting to sound like we're on one of the fighting forums! Actually, the house at the moment is quite similar with everyone squabbling today.
Darnell almost walked, Mikey has been having a real go at Rex and coming across as very bitter, to be honest.
It might just help Rachel's cause if the rest of the competition melt down!

Thanks and congratulations on your engagement.
question is will they make it to the 1st anniversary or will the players wonder why they were paid more this week and "what does a win bonus mean?"
I'm afraid that's an alien concept to me, and I'm not talking about Dr Who this time. Having followed (changing this subject from Derby County ) BB9 from the forums and Aisleyne's blog, I have to say that I was disappointed in the nomination results, as I've read several posts about the behaviour of Rex and Darnell. Does anyone think that Rex and Darnell would have both escaped if they nominated in the Diary Room? Did the housemates bottle out as they had to nominate face to face? If they did bottle out, was this part of the plan by the producers to keep them both in? |

Sara said she almost nominated Darnell but couldn't bring herself to do it. At the end of the day Darnell and Rex are well-liked in the house. Sometimes you can have a row with your friend or disapprove of something they do but you still can't help being their friend. Most people, including Sara, take Rex's ribbing as just good-natured banter and Darnell has been going through a bit of a mental breakdown at the moment.
The thing is, there has always been a core of people who consider themselves close in that house: Darnell, Kat, Mo, Rachel and Rex with Mikey also included for Rachel's sake. Everyone else in the house got whittled down until Sara and Lisa were the only ones who hadn't really gelled with the others. Although they've been getting closer to Rachel and Kat this week it was pretty much inevitable that they would be up.
In fact, before I knew about the nomination twist I made my predictions for the week on Monday and I guessed 13 out of 16 correctly (including that Rachel would vote for Rex) so it didn't seem to me that there would have been any different result in the diary room.
Regards
Julian

Regards Julian I thought Sara did nominate Darnell. She also nominated Rachel as well for some reason instead of Rex. If she had nominated Rex instead of Rachel, Rex would have been up as well and would have been a certainty to be evicted thus saving herself and Lisa. |

Yes, must have been Rex I was thinking of
It was a pretty close call for Rex. He only voted Lisa and Sara for tactical reasons as, if he'd voted elsewhere he could have found himself up as well.
At the end of the day it worked out well as I think they both deserve the money and will not be upset to leave now. Whoever stays is potential competition for Rachel and having won the money it makes them less compeititon than they might otherwise be

| it looks like being an interesting final week with no clear favourite yet
Mo will almost certainly be departing on Tuesday night, but other than that, I wouldn't want to predict anything
Good to see Sara make the final ;-)

Rex to win
Just joking
Mikey, Sara or Rachel in that order. I'm hedging my bets so I can feel good no matter who wins
Apart from Rex |

"Imogen left two days before I did" - I think Aisleyne's memory is going in her old age. It was a week before. That final week must have just flown by. I'm sure she's now going through all the emotions the remaining five are. I have to largely agree with her assessment but I'd be backing Mikey over Darnell. I reckon she's been seduced by Darnell's accent & his voice, which is almost as velvety smooth as Morgan Freeman's. |

I'm backing most of them over Darnell, to be honest. They all have their good points and their bad points but Darnell's flaws can be hurtful to others and those are the worst kind, in my opinion. Rex can be hurtful too but Rex isn’t hurtful deliberately.
I think there are far more reasons to like Rachel than just because she's been put upon. She's one of the loveliest, most caring and selfless people ever to be on Big Brother. I wanted her to win from week 2, long before any of this sympathy stuff which, to be honest, doesn’t really apply given that Rachel has been one of the happiest housemates in BB history :D
I can live with Mikey first and Rachel second but if Rachel comes third or lower or if anyone other than Mikey or Rachel win I'm going to be seriously disappointed on Friday.
Regards
Julian

| This week's Reveal magazine has an article concerning the potential "staying power" of the five BB9 finalists, and includes a prediction for each of them from "BB7 star and Reveal columnist" Aisleyne. She thinks that Rex is "most likely to succeed" as a TV cook and she repeats her opinion that Rachel would be great for children's TV.
The article refers in passing to the post-BB success of (non-winners) Jade, Nikki and Samanda, but there's a pic of Ash and a fuller mention to her modelling, TV and fashion ventures.
