I totally agree.I think we're heading for another very uncomfortable HL show

Next weeks task they'll have all the hm's dressed up as cops chasing Rodrigo around the house with ...with paintball guns or water pistols

Oh come on be serious its not an experimant in social behaviour any more its a bloody freak show.

If he doesnt have a sense of humour he shouldnt have joined up

Sophie will go far, far down in my estimations if she doesn't try to tell him it's not the real queen.

Yeah I heard that too, with Sir Ian Blair handling the complaints

I think there is a possibility that when Rodrigo finds out, as he inevitably will, that it is all fake and a joke on him, he will feel BB has been disrespectful (or indeed deesreespectfool) - to both him and Her Maj.

Possibility he might even walk........

BIG BROTHER'S Take on it: Haha Roddy will love it, the HM's will love it, the country will love it,

Rodrigos take on it

He'll sit in the Diary Room with his mouth wide open then say ''Beeeeg Brotor why you do this to me''? ...how you do this to me? . . Then it'll sink in that Charlie and Sophie never told him, the only 2 friends he has in the house and then he'll be thinking 'everyone is laughing at me now in England'' they hate me.. I wouldn't do something like that to them if they went on Brazilian Big Brother .....

A young kid in a strange country been made to look a fool on National TV He'll Imagine been made the laughing stock of England ...

Wasn't it well thought out by big brother.?..I hope its the BB take that Rod goes for because if its the second he'll be (inside his head thinking) destroyed for life, only known as the kid who was made to look a fool on tv.

So he signed up to spend 3 months in a house on national TV for a 100 grand prize, not knowing they were likely to pull a stunt or two that would make people look silly?

Oh he expected to be the one not made a fool of.

Do you really buy that?

Well who knows, perhaps Rod will see through the whole thing from the word go!

I rather hope so actually.

Notice Sophies face when they initially tell the secret. You can see that she is thinking that it is not very nice for Rod. It is very cruel as Rod is a very sensitive person.

Mind you if he throws one of his hissy fits it will be hilarious because that is what has endeared me to him.

I agree. I forget what it was, but something happened a few weeks ago which was a very small thing. Rodrigo was VERY concerned about how that would make him look to the public. And that was something small. This is something very important to him. I hope he doesn't walk out.

Rod's hissy fits are usually at Charlie and occasionally other HMs.

I suspect his reaction may well be different because it is Authority (in the form of BB) which has done this. He may just become disillusioned and depressed, rather than throwing a tantrum.

He can't even blame the HMs because they are just doing as they have been told - and of course Rod is all for that!
