leave Cameron in - he is certainly going mad, and if he survives, his head will explode.

Well... he may do. Quite interested in this guy as I come from the North of Scotland originally. However, I read in the Scotsman newspaper today that he is actually brother of former S2 (scotland's digital channel - our version of ITV2 before it died) presenter Julyan Sinclair. Julyan now does quite a bit for SMG, especially music gigs and arts events (like the Edinburgh Festival).

I suppose there can only be a few families in Orkney who want some of the media spotlight. For those interested, the article's here.

To summarize the rumours doing the rounds:

1. Anouska is returning to the house
2. We will have to vote for an evicted housemate to return
3. A housemate will have to swap places with someone from a foreign BB
4. A completely new HM is being put in, probably female.

Well now almost all of the interesting people have been voted out of the house. Anouska, Justine, Sissy and Fed were all interesting people and although Jon could be annoying he was better than boring Steph and Ray. As far as im concerned this series first became boring the minute Sissy was evicted and now Fed/Jon going in the same night has made it worst. Tania is one of the few interesting people in there.

Nice to see Sissy and Justine at the eviction shows last night - I think if they are going to put someone in the house that has been evicted they should go for Sissy rather than Anouska as think of all the tension between Sissy and Tania!

The Sun newspaper (reliable source I know) are reporting today that the winner of tonights task (a general knowledge quiz) will be whisked off to join the South African Big Brother in a swap for one of their housemates.

This begs the question, just what is the point ? If this is true, then Big Brother has become far too gimmicky and should be put to bed now, we don't need another series of this crap.

That'll be someone else entering the house then. They have to add someone in at some point as the series will be too short.
No it won't- the series lasts for 9 weeks, so if no-one else comes in, there will be 3 people left in in the final week, as there were in BB1 and 2.

I'm not sure whether Jon leaving is a good thing- he took up a lot of the C4 airtime so it will be interesting to see what the other housemates do (I haven't got E4). I've got a feeling it may just be boring banal conversation, with very little going on.

I had been thinking some sort of international tie up would be good - either a task or a HM swap - but is a swap really logistically possible. Getting someone from the UK to South Africa without any contact?

EDIT: Aussie fansite reports it'll be an Aussie/UK swap - both countries are having double evictions this week, and the second evictee in both cases will be the swap. What would they make of Jon? Also, it has been done before with Mexico and Spain.

Also, on the forum and digital spy alot of "fans" (i.e. the Mary Whitehouse brigade) are complaining about Davina asking Fed the size of his manhood, and encouraging people to complain to the BSC. What gives them the right to complain? If Fed want's too - fine, but no one has the right to complain about an incident if that person wasn't offended by it.

Thanks for that link above. Looked through the Three Mills website and there isn't a single mention of Big Brother. I wonder if Big Brother bosses are happier in their new home? Although I think the current studio facilities look a lot better, you still can't beat that location for the Big Brother house.

Don't knock Sun exclusives - more often than not they are very close to the truth.

I think certainly they will have to put someone in (or back in) but it couldn't be anyone who's already been evicted out of this series, if you follow my point. It'd surely be too tempting for the returnee to tell the other housemates what's going on outside.

So to take an evictee from another country - especially from the other side of the world - where they haven't got a clue what's being said in Britain/Australia about Big Brother would surely be logical.

Shouldn't think it'd cause that much of a problem.

I've travelled for about 13 hours on a plane (stopping about half way) and got home having no clue what had happened in between.

The only contact I had was a slightly torn copy of Newsweek I'd picked up at Heathrow (which nobody ever reads anyway).

It'd surely be done by private jet, so I don't see there'd be a problem.

Not quite. There were four people in the final week of BB2, but one was eliminated the night before the final in a surprise eviction.

The reason it's been four people in the final week since BB1 was because it was a bit dull with just the three in BB1.

Any ideas on what the reward might be for the winners of tonight's task?

PS: Can anyone explain what BIG BROTHER VIP (in Denmark) is?


I think it's a best of BB series with former housemates going back in.

A UK version is rumoured to be happening with Les Dennis sharing the house with Bubble and several others!

Les Dennis? I can't imagine him wanting to go back into the house after everything that happened last time!
