Don't watch it enough to know their names, but I'd get rid of that attention seeker who came out of the diary room yesterday with no clothes on. Desperate or what? She also put me off my dinner, and seems to whine rather a lot too.

'To disagree with three-fourths of the British public is one of the first requisites of sanity'.

she has a thing for getting them out.

That's Becky, I was disturbed by this too. It was quite funny that no one really bothered though, she was obviously looking for a big drama.

*changes the topic slightly to who you want to win*

obvious choice would be kat but personally I want luke to win 8)

Luke is such a pain. He goes into one group and says who do you think is up for eviction this week and then he goes to another and says who do you think is up for eviction because (mario) thinks it is (sylvia) or whoever.

Kat to win on her cookie power

I think I may be the only person in the country that doesn't like Kat! She annoys the hell out of me! I couldn't imagine being stuck in that house with her and that horrendous singing! She annoys me just watching the 1 hour highlights can you imagine putting up with that 24 hours a day 7 days a week potentially for 3 months????

She is a genuinely nice person and it's a bit unfair the way that Jen and Bex are continually bitching about her being 'fake', she's clearly not. But admittedly her voice does start to grate after a while, I don't think I could actually live with her 24/7.

So save the last dance

For me my love 'cause I

I see you as an angel freshly fallen from the sky...

when Stuart went in I'm sure I read somewhere that he was one of many new house mates that will go in, they should put some girls in hopefully

But I'm thinking they will put more boys in, at the moment you have Dale, Stuart and Jen and big arguments start over them three, if they add more males to fit into the already existing triangle they will get better tv.

In a few weeks, when the public have had their way and evicted Jen, Bex, Dale, etc, it'll only be a matter of time before they start complaining about the 'happy house'. The public never learn from the past.

Oh, and 3 evictions = 3 girls gone :(

Well, Jen's almost a certainty to go on Friday, so a girl would be the way to go.

All the storylines and possible relationships just keep getting stopped prematurely.

Tomorrow nights second show has been extended which surely means....NEW HOUSEMATE(S)

Might watch BBLB to see if they say anything but I'm not sure if I can put myself through 30 minutes of "presenter" Zezi. Might just keep an eye on the Digital Spy forum instead :)

On the BB website it says:

"Yes, three female housemates will be entering shortly after the eviction and are bound to stir things up a bit in the House. As a hint Big Brother can reveal they consist of an executive personal assistant, a theatre director and a model from a well known advert."

Gotta love what Lisa's dad thinks of Mario/Shaun! :D

"Mario is nothing but a sleazeball and a bully," Geoff said. "Everything about him is fake. His real name's not even Mario. He's called Shaun for God's sake. He just wanted to sound Italian.

"He lives in a fantasy world and thinks he's something he's not. He's all show and no substance."

He'll probably leave this Friday which is a pity really. The guy makes me cringe but he's amazing to watch! Like having to be extra careful with elastic bands because somebody could trip on one and injure themselves?! The man is a health and safety genius.

Big Brother faces the axe? :D:D:D

The odds on Big Brother being axed from British screens have shortened after Australian TV chiefs pulled the plug on the reality TV show.

(Advertisement)

Big Brother has been pulled from the Australian schedules by Network Ten seven years after it began there.

The current series, which featured a surprise appearance from Pamela Anderson, will be the last when it ends later this month.

Former Baywatch star Anderson, 41, was flown into the house last week in an apparent attempt to revive the show's flagging ratings.

Ten programming head David Mott said of the decision to axe the series: "After eight successful seasons and 1,316 episodes, Ten has announced that Big Brother will not be returning in 2009. We are immensely proud of the show and the incredible success it has enjoyed. We're ending the season on a high.

"Big Brother is the undisputed grand-daddy of modern, commercial reality television in Australia. Today's reality dramas have all, on some level, been inspired by Big Brother," he said. "The show has taken on topics of race, sex, homosexuality, eating disorders and alcohol abuse, many of which had been handled gingerly, if at all, on TV."

Big Brother originated in the Netherlands in 1999 and the UK version launched on Channel 4 a year later. In 2006, Channel 4 secured the rights to Big Brother until 2010 in a deal though to be worth up to £180 million.

But viewing figures have averaged 3.3 million in the current ninth series, 5% down from the 3.6 million this time last year.

Bookies have now slashed the odds for Big Brother to be axed in the UK following the ditching of the format in Australia from 16-1 to 8-1.

Ladbrokes spokesman Nick Weinberg said: "Big Brother's fall from grace down under demonstrates that everything has a shelf life. It suggests that the format is getting a bit tired."

    • I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right! 
    • Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!
    • Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.
    • If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.
    • The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!
    • What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.
    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
