No, I only watch the summary progs. Is BB going to call Mario to the diary room every time he looks as if he's about to have some nookie with Lisa? A good joke! And a relief for us all,
I liked Luke's attitude to that awful group meeting.
And the crisp task was dreadful.
Syvia is both attractive and not. A strange mixture of harridan and angel.
LIKE YOUR NEW AVATAR, Marion, a bit like a flutterby.

Do you think that scene was set up? Or a dreadful mistake by BB? As it can be inferred as a mistake, one that should never have been made, for future confidence in the DR to be upheld, then it must have indeed been a mistake.
Mohammed is quiite a complex character, as it turns out. Both Mikey and him, alike. I don't envy Mo in face of his co-religionists when he gets out!
I enjoyed the nominations. All to character, Irrespective of what they are like outside the DR, the best were Sylvia, Mikey and Luke.
Luke and Darnell are strong contenders. Kat, too.
I agree with what you say about Dale.
I'm torn between Mario and Alex as to who should go. On the whole, Alex, simply to see how far Mario continues to balloon into his own self-image. He and Lisa are aging clowns. |

===============================
Despite all its faults, there is no other theatricality like BB. It is both fabricated and real. The tragic 'albino-faced' Shakesperean mock-Japanese shrew that shall never be tamed, never be shamed, acting better than any actress, behaving worse than any real people. Both Coriolanus and a Macbethian witch in one vast yet paradoxically small performance.
You are right about, Bex, Marion. Vintage BB. What a lightsome contrast. They could not have created it better with a great script-writer. The best scripts often just happen.
Darnell still seems like a winner to me.
Sylvia says she doesn't speak English properly, but I find her word perfect. Warming to her, despite her two-facedness.
I'm sort of glad Mario has been saved. He is another Shakespearean character, a mixture of Ricky Gervais in 'The Office' and Sylvester Stallone (or Jackie Stallone?), unself-conscious comic relief.
===========================
I think Alex is more mad than she is bad (although I don't discount the fact that she is probably bad, too) - but if she thought threats would work, surely she would have made them before the nominations, not afterwards. If it was some style of street lingo, it reminds me of Sarah's (?) use of the 'n.....r' word in the last BB. But Alex was indeed a blight in the house, and I'm glad she's gone.
Dale's karate chop wood seemed pretty brittle and almost breaking apart on its own.
It was pitiful to see Alex so joyful at the successes in the Japanese tasks, with us knowing that she was about to be (justfiably) kicked out. A tragic shrew, a shriven shrew.
===========================
Just a quick one - as I'm watching extra time in the Croatia/Turkey match (and I've got Turkey in the TTA sweepstake): but
OMG!
Did you see Mario & Lisa? And the custard cream?
==========================
The scene between Mario and Lisa was most disturbing, hilarious and, well, - Abigail's Party taken to new horrific lengths???
The interview with Alexandra was predictable. She hadn'r really got a leg to stand on but she had a leg she had brought along and nothing would prize it from her grasp. I see Heat magazine are cashing in...
And Turkey won!
==========================
Horrithongous! That coily embrace between Abigail and Slime-pie.
==========================
I've never seen someone so besotted as Sylvia is with this new Kenny Everett lookalike.
Did Mario say he manages 500 people in real life...? Is this a custard cream factory and he's its Willie W*nka?
Dale is a strange cove. Not really sussed him.
Mikey is becoming a whiney bore. Though I, too, would want my beauty sleep, if I were in the BB house. Actually, I'm the next on reserve for going in.
==========================
Mario - A ligottian puppet of Big Brother? Heaven forfend! If he is a mole or smething, then he is a very good actor at being such a bad actor acting as a slime-pie willy w*nka! My mind turns somersualts lke an electrocuted dead monkey. And that's not good this time on a Sunday morning.
=============================
From Goldfrapp Forum (not TTA):
Yes, Sylvia as a bunny-boiler did occur to me. The fastest into that mode often turns out to be the most virulent.
A friend of mine has a theory about Mario & Lisa. There cannot possibly be a real couple like that. If there is, then one fears for all sorts of sanities. Also, it is unlikely that they are moles or puppets of BB acting the part of such slime-pies. No - what is happening here is that they (Mario or Lisa, or whatever their real names are) are making fun of BB. They feel BB has been patronising enough in the past. BB has always acted as master. So, M & L are acting a part to ridicule BB, pretending to be people they are not, acting brilliantly and increasingly as quite unbelievable specimens of humanity to see how long they can be believed as real.
=====================
Sylvia suffers a fatal attraction. I suppose it can be a mistake to judge people by normal standards when they are in the abnormal circumstances of the House.
Luke is the only one with his head screwed on. Interesting description of the various factions and factions within factions by room, by gender, by love interest, by ashtray...
Dale a hobbit? He does have a puckish look. Sometimes a possessed look
=========================
Custard creams do seem a theme of the messy montage that is Lisa and Mario. Except I fear they are harder inside than their mock soft exteriors. An agenda for fame on the back of TV entertainment as it has now becme. We can only turn, turn again for sanity and less loose frontage, for less atrocious examples of British scurf-life that is them and the mis-fired scatology of Mikey. And the smarmy smugness of Stu. The chick-lusts of Sylvia.
I appreciate BB not for itself but for what it so vividly represents. A lesson for us all.
Dale and Jen are a situation comedy within a tragedy, written by someone who is not very good at writing situation comedies.
Luke simply a detached running commentary.
Rex, simply detached. The Churlish Chef who muscles up ready for a duel with any Galloping Gourmet that comes his way.
Dennis - a walking backside from an etching by Jacques Callot.
Rachel is a blank slate, trying to make chalk marks for a hopscotch game her mother as a child once played in the street.
Kat and Darnell are my favourites. They represent what I believe in from within, fighting (sometimes against their own natures) for good.
==============================
It bears out my worst fears re the Ant & Dec show (none of which I've ever seen before). The whole thing is obviously a put-up job by all concerned (just like their phone competitions). It actually proves that Mario is a complete fabrication there - and in BB9.
Unbelievable! Seriously disturbing.
===============================
Mario is not real. He is a showman playing a part, as he did on the contrived Ant & Dec show, as amply displayed by the video you kindly supplied. Lisa, his partner-in-business (acting as a partner-in-love) is equally contrived. This is fabrication piled on fabrication that only the 'reality' of BB can contain.
Sylvia as a noir film dame? - Brilliant.
Darnell and Luke are both great blokes, but are polar opposites temperamently. Darnell may even be a polar bear.
Like you, Sylvia to stay - for all the wrong reasons.
