Predictable

http://www.channel4.com/bigbrother/

We got rid of Roberto last week which helped. He was annoying. This weeks events were written down as soon as Makosi hit the red button. Given the task of caring for the three secret housemates in BB's secret garden she used the situation to gain advantage over her arch rival, Saskia. It allowed her to act eccentrically and rile her opponents to attack her verbally. When the task was revealed and the two new housemates introduced, Makosi's odd behaviour was explained and Saskia looked like a bitch. The timing was perfect for Saskia and her favourite lapdog, Maxwell, to get nominated for the public vote. She wasn't helped when Maxwell and Anthony were heard plotting against Makosi so were not allowed to nominate. They weren't to know that Makosi was safe from the public vote anyway as a result of completing her task.

I have been waiting for a long time for someone to actually get it on in the BB house but when Saskia and Maxwell finally got it together it really wasn't very nice to watch. I had to agree with Kemal and wished they would stop it.

With Saskia evicted last night her trio of lapdogs, Maxwell, Anthony and Craig, will have to rethink their strategy. They are outnumbered by the Makosi gang and will face nomination weekly unless they make efforts to get along with them. Maybe Saskia's departure will herald a more peaceful era in the house and true personalities will start to shine through. Craigs 'sucking up' to his new chums is rather worrying. He appears to enjoy being humiliated when he is not bitching about members of the Makosi gang. Maybe Miss Whiplash should be sent into the house to keep him happy.

With regard to the two new housemates, Eugene is a dork of the biggest order. We have all met people like him who are nice but extremely boring. He goes on for ages about nothing and will not last very long. Orlaith (pronounced Orla) is an absolute stunner. I'm not normally one for blonds but she has a figure to die for. The fact that she gets naked and invited all and sundry to feel the results of her boob job is a very good sign. I think she will stay for a while. She shouldn't be underestimated though. She is very intelligent and has a strong character.

I am actually warming to Derek. He might even stay the course. Science and Vanessa have been very lucky not to be subject to the public vote apart from the one week when all were and Lesley left unsurprisingly. As soon as one of them is up they will be out. Kemal is a bit insignificant surprisingly. His role as the house 'diva' is being undertaken rather more effectively by Makosi who lies on the Queens throne at the end of the bedroom holding court for substantial periods of the day. Her subjects lie prostrate around her. Makosi is playing the game (and don't forget that this is a game show with a substantial cash prize) with great skill and looks like she is the favourite to win - at the moment anyway!
