It's Nomination Day in the BBUK House

If you can call anything normal in the Big Brother House, I guess you can say that there was a return to the “normal nomination” format this week wherein one at a time, the House Mates are called into the DR and state who their first and second nominations are. 

The nominations were as follows:

Gina – Hazel and Jack and Joe

Charlie – Callum and Jack and Joe

Jack and Joe – Dexter and Callum

Hazel – Callum and Dexter

Sam – Sophie and Dexter

Sophie – Callum and Hazel

Callum – Dexter and Hazel

Dexter – Callum and Jack and Joe

Up for the public vote are Callum, Dexter, Hazel and Jack and Joe.  As an added little bonus for those who were nominated, Big Brother played the DR sessions of the House Mates who nominated and the reasons for the nomination.  Can you say awkward? Big Brother can. 

In other news, four House Mates were sent to Big Brother jail. In the latest task, the House Mates were divided into two teams – Callum, Dexter, Gina and Sam on team one; and Charlie, Hazel, Sophie, and Jack and Joe on team two – for a “Modeling Challenge.” Long story short, team one won and they were awarded pizza and alcohol.  Team two, being hungry and thirsty, decided to help themselves to the pizza and alcohol despite Big Brother telling them that they were forbidden.  So, who did Big Brother punishment? Team one.  That’s right, the team that won.  Why?  “Gina, Dexter, Sam and Callum, as you failed to stop Jack and Joe, Sam, Hazel and Sophie from eating your reward, you must go straight to jail.”  You gotta love Big Brother!!!

So, who do you think the public will vote out this week? Who do you hope gets voted out this week?  Sound of in the comments below and let us know what you think!

Gina was Saved from the Public Vote and the HMs Completed the Food Task

As you have probably already heard, Gina was saved from the public vote.  Voting (to evict) continued this morning and based upon all the rumor mills and flash polls, it is looking like Jemima will be getting the boot on Friday. 

In what has to be one of the best tasks EVER, the House Mates completed the Quarantine Dead Set food shopping task.  The task split the House Mates into two groups: Jack, Jemima, Jackie, Dexter, Dan, Sam, Sophie and Gina were deemed to be have been infected with a virus and they had to be cured if the house wanted to win a luxury shopping budget.  The six “Safe” House Mates – Wolfy, Charlie, Hazel, Daley, Callum and Joe – had to observe and treat the infected House Mates. To make it even more fun, the infected House Mates had to spend the duration of the task in the Quarantine room.  The funny part is that the task lasted two days. Oh hell yeah.  To be “cured,” the House Mates had to complete various tasks such as drinking vile concoctions. BB did save the best for last.  To be cured, Jack and Jackie had to have part of the head shaved.  That’s right boy and girls.  Shaved.  Think of a reverse mohawk.  Is that not awesome?!?!?  Jack complied, but Jackie back out.  Can’t say that I don’t blame her.  At the end of the second day, enough of the contaminated House Mates were cured that the task was deemed successful.  The House Mates received their luxury shopping spree and all had smiles on their faces.  Well...except for Jack.  He was still a little peved this morning from having his head shaved.  Hehehehe.

In an effort to help pass the time, BB is playing a joke on Jack and Joe.  After being called into the DR, the rest of the House Mates were called into the living room and were provided with an envelope that contained the instructions for today’s task.  Basically, the House Mates have to secretly hide themselves in the storage room without Jack and Joe noticing their disappearance. If the House Mates are successful in tricking Jack and Joe, the house will get a special treat this evening.  Brings back childhood memories of Hide and Seek, doesn’t it?

 

 

Well, that is all for now.  Tune in tomorrow to see who will be the second House Mate evicted from the Big Brother house!!!

BBUK Nomination Day!!!

 

Welcome to, what I am calling, the first REAL nomination day for 2013 BBUK!!!  Okay, Okay…Michael, the People’s Puppet, actually made the first nominations from the “will of the people,” but this will be the first true nominations from the House Mates themselves.  I don’t know if I am more excited for the actual nominations…or all the drama from the fallout after nominations.  Yes, I know, stupid question.  The drama afterwards.  Should be fun!!!

Through the grapevine, I am hearing that nominations will be live.  I am not sure what “Live” means to BBUK this year, but for BBCAN, their definition of “Live” didn’t come close to the definition of “Live” for the…rest of the world.  Either way, by this evening, we should know who is nominated and panic for a couple of people should be sitting in. 

Before I get to a breakdown of the remaining HMs, there is one other bit of news I would like to share.  If there is one thing that I LOVE about BBUK, it is that they actually punish the HMs for breaking the rules.  Yes, I know that this is an unknown concept for strictly BBUS fans, but for the rest of the BB world, it is glorious!!! And I LOVE it!!! Over the weekend, there were apparently a couple of HMs – Jackie, Jemima, Joe and Hazel - that decided to discuss nominations.  This is a big “No No” in the BBUK house and of course, Big Brother was watching and listening.  Can you say busted?  Oh, yes we can.  And what delicious punishment did BB hand out to these rule breakers?  They got sent to BB Jail!!! Oh hell yes they did.  Absolutely marvelous!!! As much as I love this, I still have one problem: if Jack and Joe are playing as one, why wasn’t Jack sent to jail as well? Can you imagine the fighting and drama that would have caused between Jack and Joe?  That would have been phenomenal.  BB, you dropped the ball on this one.  Don’t let it happen again.

On with nominations.  Here is a quick breakdown of who is still left in the house and my thoughts on nominations:

Jack and Joe.  Identical twins playing as one.  I know that most people find their banter dry, but I find them hilarious.  So far, they have been mingling with everyone and have managed to stay in the background.  They should be safe this week.

Callum.  My initial thoughts were that he was a douche.  So far, he has been okay.  Other than hitting on Charlie 24 hours a day, he has been a wall flower.  He should also be safe this week.

Jemima.  From a public standpoint, she garnered some sympathy after being formally warned by BB for what BB perceived as racial statements in her “discussions” with Gina.  As for how she is doing with her House Mates, she seems to be on the outside looking in.  She should be concerned this week and I would not be surprised if she is nominated.

Sam.  He started out a little shaky with constant “winkie” comments, but has since calmed down.  I don’t see him as being on any one’s radar.  He should be safe.

Wolfy.  Now, this is a tough one.  Don’t get me wrong, I like Wolfy.  After the beating she took last week, I think she deserves a free pass from nominations.  But, I think the HMs are starting to wonder if she is a little too emotional.  During a comp, it was implied that she might be a mole.  She got upset by this and let everyone know.  In my opinion, bad move.  Now, everyone is looking at her like a whiner.  There are times when you should just shut up.  This was one of them.  Will this affect her to the point of being nominated? Probably not, but I think if she keeps whining, it will not be long before she find herself on the block. 

Sophie.  Hang on, which one is she? I think she is the other blond one. Such a wall flower that I think that the other HMs have forgotten that she is even in the house.  I don’t believe that she has anything to worry about.

Dexter.  After getting off the block last week, his blow out with Sallie, and his made up romance with Hazel, I don’t think that there is any doubt that he is going be nominated.  Welcome back to the block Dexter.

Gina.  Initially, I was not a fan.  Still not a fan, but she is starting to grow on me. She stated to show promise with her row with Sallie and Jemima, but she went completely radio silent after being nominated.  I don’t expect to hear much from her this week either.  She should be safe.

Hazel. She has been sitting back and taking everything in.  She appears to be trying to form an alliance with the cool kids, but has not really done anything in furtherance of it. She is very sneaky and should be around for a while.  She is safe this week.

Dan.  He has been stirring it up…a lot lately.  He thinks that he has this game figured out after getting lucky by calling out Michael as a mole.  (By the way, for the diehard fans, Michael was not a mole, he was the People’s Puppet – yes, there is a difference – Google) In fact, I think he has stirred so much up that he just landed himself a spot on the block.  He should be concerned this week.

Daley.  Other than crying in the DR and working out in the yard by himself, he has not had that much of a presence.  He should be okay this week.

Charlie.  She and Callum seem to be hitting it off.  She does complain a lot in the DR about not being able to be herself due to her mom being in the house, but other than that, she has been in the background.  She should be safe this week.

Jackie.  Charlie’s mom.  Everyone seems to like Jackie.  She has been giving dance lesson, telling jokes, and helping cook dinner.  She is not a threat and is probably the safest one in the house.

Okay, there are my thoughts.  We should know in a couple hours who will be up for eviction.  In the meantime, what do you think? Agree or disagree? Sound off in the comments below and let us know!!!
