I think it would have been best if they'd have set up a Diary Room in what was the mole's bedroom at the start of the series.

The garden task room is currently the (very cramped) bedroom, unless there is more than one task room linked to the garden?
That's the large task room. There's another room which is linked to the outdoor toilet and is where the mole's bedroom was in the first week. They haven't used it that much since though I don't think.

It was also the Cougar's Lair and the Foal Hole, and I think something else too. Agree though would have made sense to use that as the Diary Room and left the Nest for the HMs to lounge in. All in all though they managed the situation quite well - the task room seems to be far bigger than I thought to comfortably hold nine beds.

The porta cabin they moved the HMs too though didn't seem as set up for the situation as the room they used back in the BB4 bomb scare. There was also an evacuation in BB9 due to a bomb scare but it was never mentioned on the show or acknowledged in any way.


And they so didn't need to extend the show last night - the flooding was covered in less than 10 minutes, and if they hadn't spent half an hour going on about Corin's make up it could have easily slotted into the usual slot.

So they screwed up big style with this quadruple eviction - if it had been a vote for who we wanted in the final you could argue all four of tonight's evictees might have made it.

Dave is the only one I think could put up a challenge to Josie, but he's competing for second place at best really.

I'm shocked Dave is through to the final after the reaction he's had throughout the series, yet he's the one I'd love to win. I agree with how real Josie is and her all-round friendliness, but Dave just seems to be the better person - he may have caused stirs with his religious views, but he rarely had a bad word to say to anybody, he's always up for a laugh, and he's always there to pick somebody up when they're down.

I'm not voting, though. I'd rather put all of my 50p in a charity box in McDonalds.

Yeah, I think the instruction is never made clear whether we are EVICTING or SAVING. The fact is, with so many phone vote shows in general now, its confusing.

But I suppose the other way of looking at things is the majority of people who find the likes of say, Sam Pepper entertaining wouldn't have picked up the phone to vote if it was to SAVE.

You can't say it's not clear with BB - it's always made explicitly clear when it's a vote to evict or a vote to save, and arguably they avoided any confusion by keeping it a vote to evict this week even though it's removed big characters from the final.


Josie isn't the character producers like to make her out to be - even in John James's interview Davina was making out it was Josie who had persuaded him to stay this week, but that was far from the case. It was JJ he spent an hour with in the diary room, but that all ended up on the cutting room floor.

The reason the likes of Corin and Sam Pepper were evicted is because too many people just presume they're popular and will be safe anyway, but the people who actually pick up the phone and vote are likely to be the elder generation of viewers who find them consistently vain and irritating...thus they're out. That's how I see it anyway.

I'm far from an elder viewer and I found the two of them to be a complete nightmare. Corin had a disadvantage as her klaxon-style voice was just so annoying that even if she hadn't been irritating in the first place, I'd still have struggled to put up with her. Sam was just an arse though.

Not in this case though - they went because there wasn't an obvious option to vote for to keep them around. Their fate was pretty much sealed the minute BB decided to put all eight up for eviction.

Interesting choice to show the Tree of Temptation Best Bits package pre-watershed complete with mild swearing.
