Task Announced

Evil Big Brother has lived up to its nickname by challenging the housemates with the most evil task to date.

Each member of the gang must cross an obstacle course which comprises of a roundabout, fish gut tunnel, cow pat pool and balancing beam over stinging nettles - bringing back memories of earlier, horrid tasks.

But once they've done that, they'll be informed their efforts were in vain - for the real task will be in each of them having to down a shot of fishy milkshake.

At £1,000 a shot, the housemates could potentially add £10,000 to the current prize fund of £53,500 - depending on whether anyone will want to go back for seconds.

The Result



Shot Horror
Day 65, 19:12
Saturday 31 July

The housemates have added £10,000 to their prize after downing a selection of drinks which left them retching and vomiting.

Stuart stared open-mouthed and Shell laughed disbelievingly after Big Brother assembled the housemates to tell them that successfully completing the obstacle course had earned them nothing.

The real test would be to down 10 shots - a gut-boiling selection of salt water, cod liver oil and fish milkshake. Each shot downed would add £1,000 to their prize fund.

Nadia was first to the Diary Room, clutching a towel to her face.

Uttering "Oh my God!" she settled in the Diary Room chair and surveyed the shots.

First down the hatch was the salt water, to applause from the housemates who were watching the action on a plasma screen in the living room. Coughing, she forced down a shot of cod liver oil, hesitating mid-shot as the contents of her stomach threatened to make a reappearance.

"She's a trouper, you know," gasped Daniel in admiration.

But it all became too much for Nadia. Violently retching, she fled the Diary Room, whizzing through the living room to vomit in the garden. Shell soon followed to comfort her.

Daniel was next to take up the challenge. Sniffing the shot glasses and frowning, he managed to down a shot of salt water. Lips puckered and face scrunched up, he struggled to the hold the liquid down and departed the Diary Room at speed.

Shell attempted to talk herself into knocking back a shot after examining the fish gut milkshake.

"It's raw fish guts," she said in horror. Unable to continue she left the Diary Room.

Stuart adopted a gung-ho attitude to tackling the fishy concoction. Chanting a self-motivating mantra he went for the first shot. Ensuring he got every last drop of the mixture he dragged his finger round the glass, retching and coughing.

The second shot got the same treatment. "I think this one's actually looking at me," he considered as he contemplated a third shot of the vile fish milkshake and then gulped it back.

His nerve finally failed him after rounding off his attempt with a cod liver oil chaser.

"Jay? Can you take these?" pleaded a watery-eyed Stuart indicating the three remaining shots of fish milkshake.

And Jason too displayed nerves of steel. Toasting absent friends the Scot raised his glass, gulping back his first shot and chewing on the less well-blended fishy bits.

Undeterred, he went for the next. "Feels good!" he insisted gruffly stirring his next fish shake with his finger.

"How's my hair looking?" he asked, touching up his barnet, before going for a hat trick.

Stuart dashed to hug Jason as he emerged triumphant from the Diary Room and Shell too was keen to offer congratulatory hugs.

The prize fund now stands at £63,500.

No Obstacle?

The housemates have completed a grisly obstacle course - only to discover that their endeavours were for nothing.

Fixing their camouflage helmets and safety goggles firmly in place, the gang attempted to steady their nerves.

Facing a course that involved navigating a balance beam through a bed of nettles, a trough of manure, eight tyres and a tunnel of fish was bad enough. But the course had to be traversed after the housemates had been spun on a roundabout - and they had a total of five minutes to complete it.

"Ah s***!" said Jason surveying the obstacles. Even Stuart's usual enthusiasm was dampened and Nadia was clearly appalled.

"That's disgusting... do you think that fish is fresh?" asked Nadia, nose wrinkling at the smell.

"We could just not do it," ventured Daniel as he and Jason considered the consequences of failing to complete the task.

Climbing aboard the roundabout the housemates focussed as Stuart got the roundabout up to speed. The claxon sounded and Daniel dismounted to attempt the course.

After spinning in the opposite direction to steady himself, he mounted the beam and took several attempts to complete the walk, repeatedly falling into the nettles.

"It's hard, man!" said Daniel. "Well done, dude!" shouted Shell in support and on he went, diving under the net and into the trough of manure.

Wafting the entrance to the fish tunnel, he shimmied through the fishy mess to shouts of, "You love it, man!... The fishmonger is in town!" from Stuart.

"The smell! The smell!" wailed Nadia as Daniel got back on the roundabout.

Looking distinctly green about the gills Nadia shrieked and yelped her way around the course, retching and coughing as she emerged from the fish tunnel.

"That was a good effort, Nadia," praised Stuart as Nadia retched on the ever-spinning roundabout.

Stuart bravely hit the course, crashing through the manure trough and nimbly dancing through the tyres.

"Come on, Wilson!" shouted Jason.

The housemates cheered delightedly as they all completed the course. Nadia instantly fled to the shower.

But there was worse to come as the housemates discovered that their efforts were in vain.
