Big Brother - A Happier House

It's that kind of vibe nowWith just over a week to go, the house has come down with a dose of good vibes and not even Marcus moaning about a can (eh, is it worth risking the chance of £100,000 over?), Sophie failing her part of the task, Lisa griping about no music and talk turning to nominations clouded things over too much. I hope it stays like this. Aside from being feelgood TV, it makes it harder to guess who's going to be nominated, who's going and in what order.

With people generally more relaxed, last night's show had some sweet and funny moments: David describinOne of these people knows where Sweden isg the show as "The best six weeks of my life"; Siavash saying "That cannot be health and safety" when he saw/smelt the shrimp paste; David saying to Lisa "What is this? Sexual bingo" when she started firing off the numbers of partners he's possibly had; Siavash losing an eyebrow (but don't mess up your chances of winning with nomination paranoia!) and Sophie asking "Where is Sweden? Is it near America?" Actually, there were about 10 classics during Sophie's geography quiz. It's just a pity they couldn't have piped Toto's 'Africa' into the house for the evening.

I never thought I'd watch 'Big Brother' and hear people saying that they didn't want the show to end but that's what we're hearing now. It makes me wonder how emotional they'll all be on Friday night and as the numbers get whittled down even further next week. Of course, some of it will be relief about the fact that they're still in with a chance of winning £100,000, but I think now that there is that bond of people having been through a lot together, and if not respecting each other's differences, at least tolerating them a bit more. Just a bit.

Lots of laugh-out-loud moments last night! I especially enjoyed Sophie in the diary room giving out about Marcus, and the eyebrow waxing :)

I really hope big brother and the britsh public don't let me down again when it comes to the winner of the show(which I am sure they will). Marcus is the true star of BB10 but alas there is the dumb blonde who is (unfortunately)todays type of role model in Sophie.In a world were we have Kerry Katona and the late Jade Goody as british superstars you can really see Sophie winning.That along with Ulrika Johnson winning CBB,Rachel winning last year and many more undeserving winners over the PROPER entertainers. I have lost faith in big brother over the years but worse fool me going back for more. Anyway like I said Marcus to win!!!

Hi P, yup there will be an X Factor blog this year when the live shows start. We have to get over the trauma of weeks of BB blogging first!

Dunno if it was last nights episode or the previous one with the cleaning task? Well I LOVED lisa and marcus singing along with November Rain - thats my fave song ever and I would have been just the same as them singing away and playing air guitar

Marcus to win? nooo way,he is totally in a dream world, he thinks he is some sort of legend when all he has done in the house is make an eejit of himself over Noirin and Bea (the cigs episode), lie around under the duvet and dont forget his'alone time' in the jacks. He is not entertaining and is just vain as Sophie or any of the so called superstars you mentioned. Remember the big deal over his picture?? There is a lot to be said for manners and Marcus has none, the way he speaks to big bro is disgraceful and i'd even prefer Lisa to win over him and thats saying something. For the record SIAVASH TO WIN!

Loving the new nominations twist, but i think they should all be up from now on. i just hope there is a worthy winner this year not like rachel from last year, possible the worst winner ever!really wanted rex to win even if he was an annoying git, so i'm hoping for the sake of the show marcus wins - just wonder if he will look davina in the eye when he finally gets his interview?

I see where you are coming from with a couple of your points Shiv and everyone is entitled to there own opinion and I respect yours but wether you don't like Marcus or not I genuinely believe he IS the most genuine in the house and you could see he was heartbroken over Noirin.As for Lisa I don't like manipulative people and you can see what she has done to the housemates over the past couple of months(i.e. Karly,Charlie and David) Anyway if Marcus doesn't win I will deffo be shouting for Siavash. p.s. Marcus and Siavash ARE up for eviction this week

just heard marcus and siavash face eviction please keep siavash in he derserves it a hel of a lot more than marcus SIVASH TO WIN

I really liked Siavash at d start but d last few weeks hes started to annoy me! Every week he says hes not nominating..he knew going into d house that nominations were part of BB so whats he playing at?? On the plus side Bea is gone...delighted about that!! Siavash to go this week...Charlie to win!!!

Posted by Amy on August 25, 2009 at 03:56 PM BST #

OMG...I don't believe it!( I feel like Victor Meldrew) Marcus and Siavash are up for eviction....... I was hoping they'd be both in the Final week. I soo wanted it to be Lisa and David.

Hoping Marcus stays in this week and wins it next week, most entertaining by far

Posted by Mike on August 25, 2009 at 07:53 PM BST #

charlie is so fake. he is playing the biggest game plan by trying to be mr nice guy when he clearly is not. It is so annoying he is getting away with it. I / hope he doesn't win.
