Cameron On BB8! Sunday post articles

No bombs but
plenty of fireworks


ON Big Brother 8’s Wednesday launch Davina McCall was quick to scotch the rumours that had been rife in the run-up.
So, for example, there will be no gay marriages. And the house won’t be blown up with dynamite.
But one avenue of speculation proved correct. All of the initial 11 entrants were women. Big Brother had got himself his own little harem.
It was a killer twist. But I’m not quite sure of its purpose, or the point of having such a “discombobulated” (favourite word of twins, Sam and Amanda) house, with the bath and kitchen sink in the living room and the oven in the bedroom.
Multi-tasking
Charley has emerged as the House hate figure and may struggle to avoid eviction.


It’s going to take all the famed multi-tasking skills of the female sex to cook meals for the house in two or three places at once.
Considering the show’s audience is mainly women, gay men and teenagers — and they have a history of voting off pretty girls — it might have made for better viewing figures if the First XI had been all-male hunks.
But what am I thinking? With all the young, pretty girls in there just waiting to be evicted, BB producers have probably calculated all along that this way would maximise voting revenue!
What I want most from this year’s programme is FUN. At least I thought I did until the first housemates — “fun” twins Sam and Amanda — entered.
Oh brother! A pair of giddy, giggling, 18-year-old pink-obsessed dolly mixtures from Stoke, squealing with pleasure.
By not-so-subtle contrast, next in was the aptly named Lesley Brain, a 60-year-old retired head-hunter and WI member.

Alas, the only WI she’ll find in there is WAG Infatuation. Tongues wagged endlessly about the Wives And Girlfriends of famous footballers, the conversations invariably initiated by Charley, cousin of Manchester United’s Kieran Richardson and WAG wannabe.
When the hot topic wasn’t WAGs it was boys — the girls were clearly in sore need of some gentlemanly companionship.
It was on Friday Ziggy entered the house — the first man in this garden of oestrogen. He even looked a bit like Adam, too (young Adam Faith that is), and has been a singer in a boyband and dabbled in modelling.
I don’t know if this Ziggy plays guitar but it seems he plays the field. Even friends describe him as a flirt. The Big Brother twist is that Ziggy will be choosing the nominees for the evictions.
What was that crash we all heard when that one was revealed? It was the sound of the girls’ hearts being broken.
Here are my first impressions of the BB8 housemates:

Sam and Amanda (18) — I wouldn’t be surprised if Ziggy finds their girlishness just too much and sticks them up for nomination.

Lesley (60) — A bit of a wag in the old-fashioned sense and a wit, but very much the lone wolf. Already isolating herself and subject of the show’s first “Watergate” — urinating in the shower — which won’t endear her to her housemates, whether or not it’s true.

Charley (21) — Looked crushed as she was booed on her entrance. Already dubbed a “bitch” by housemates and will probably head for an early bath.

Tracey (36) — A “proper buzzing” bird who collects carrier bags and blown light bulbs. Bit of a hippy, but I find her hobbies strangely endearing. Another loose cannon.

Chanelle (19) — Victoria Beckham obsessive who has also reached grade seven on the violin, so maybe has a few more strings to her bow. Has a secret heartache in that her mother was apparently murdered when she was four.

Shabnam (22) — Didn’t take to her. Anyone who describes herself as a “vivacious enigma” is full of flannel. Hope Ziggy sees sense and turns the enigma into an evictee.

Emily (19) — Posh bird who loves indie rock and is looking for a Pete Doherty. Will Ziggy fit the bill?

Carole (53) — Second oldest and seems like fun, if a bit political. A member of former housemate George Galloway’s Respect party, which producers hope may lead to some sparks flying with Tory Emily.

Laura (23) — Seems a lovely, natural Welsh girl — but wants to be an embalmer! Doesn’t drink much and hates cigarettes which might well put her on a collision course with…

Nicky (27) — LOVES cigarettes, apparently. But “can’t tolerate” men so, for the first week anyway, she’s come to the right place.
Well, tarra for noo!

Is one-trick pony Charley BB’s ‘chosen one’?

I've never been one for conspiracy theories but the twist in last week’s nominations really has got me thinking Charley is the chosen one.
It appears the producers are determined to keep her in. After all, it was entirely down to them that she avoided the public vote.
Charley and Billi had an argument during which they brought up nominations. They were reprimanded and the nominations they’d given were voided as punishment.
Having already received enough to put her up for eviction, the loss of Billi’s nomination provided a reprieve for Charley.
Dangerous path
Big Brother bosses are treading a dangerous path. OK, we want to be entertained, but Charley is a one-trick pony and all she does is cause conflict.
The house could do without Charley and her trouble-making ways.

By tuning in we are inviting these people into our lives. And would you really want to spend much time with someone who causes that much trouble?
I hate the way she deliberately butters people up. She and Billi (left) got on so badly almost all the way through his time in the house. Then she had the cheek to slime up to him during a little pep talk in which she suggested they would stick together and get either Ziggy or Chanelle out.
Madam
She’s just a little madam.
I don’t find her appealing in the programme, I don’t enjoy watching her and I certainly don’t want her to win the £100,000.
Billi’s eviction on Friday does suggest the voting public will try to rid the house of obvious game players. And I think he is going to have regrets.
The model admitted he wasn’t being himself and that he was there simply to play a game. If you go in to play a game and play it wrong, you’re out and you’ve thrown away a really decent chance in life.
Billi claimed he’d watched every series, was down with the rules and knew how things would pan out. So he should have known that trying to mess with the turn of events doesn’t work.
During Big Brother 4 Jon Tickle was voted back into the house. He announced he was going to stir things up and it just fell flat. It can’t be done.
Love triangle
The love triangle Billi tried to create between him, Chanelle and Ziggy ended up more like the Bermuda Triangle — the whole thing disappeared beneath the waves.
I actually feel sorry for him. He tried to play a game and it failed. He could be dismally disappointed now.
Ziggy is unlikely to be too bothered by Billi’s departure, not that his relationship with Chanelle was ever really threatened by him.
While I like Chanelle she has become little more than Ziggy’s shadow. They should keep in mind that very few Big Brother relationships have come to anything and even fewer have lasted, as we’ve seen with the break-up of Chantelle and Preston’s marriage last week.
During last week’s task they failed to stay awake for 60 hours which resulted in them being given slop to eat.
Food is so important to the housemates that any tampering with it always makes things interesting.
Naive
I’m dreading the day when one of the twins, Sam or Amanda, is up for eviction or voted out.
I might even be forced to vote that week.
I still think they’re a scream — they’re sweet, bubbly, naive and innocent and I don’t want to see them upset.
I also like Tracey. She’s completely on the level and has some pretty insightful opinions. What you see is what you get with her.
But I do suspect she’ll be up for eviction this week. And I’m hoping Charley will be the second person. That would make it an easy vote.
However, that might lead to us seeing more nomination tricks from the producers. We’ll just have to wait and see.
Well, tarra for noo!
