Sock It To \'Em
 
Quote:

The housemates' lazy Sunday afternoon has been disturbed by one of Big Brother's task.

Today, the gang have been asked to each make a sock puppet based on another housemate, and then perform a short ventriloquist act.

Here are their instructions in full...

Housemates,

Today Big Brother has provided housemates with materials to create and perform a ventriloquist act.

Each housemate will become a ventriloquist and they must each create a sock puppet.

Each sock puppet must be named after and based on another housemate currently in the House.

The ventriloquist must create the illusion that the sock puppet is talking. The ventriloquist must do this by attempting to talk without moving their lips while the sock puppet mouths the words.

The ventriloquist must interact with the sock puppet.

Each ventriloquist's routine must last one minute and include observational humour about the housemates in the audience.

Big Brother has provided materials for you to create the sock puppets. Each puppet must have the following features:

2 x eyes

1 x tongue

Hair

The performances must take place in the garden facing the spa area. The housemates making up the audience must sit on the steps of the spa.

Housemates have one hour to prepare their act. Housemates are free to decide the order in which they perform.

Your time starts now,

Big Brother

Puppet On A Sting
Day 66, 15:45
Sunday 01 August

The housemates' hand puppet show hasn't quite been the family entertainment Big Brother was perhaps hoping for.

In fact, what began as a leisurely Sunday afternoon jolly, ended up with one housemate in particular using the opportunity to launch a caustic attack on another.

Jason was the inspiration for Stuart's sock puppet, while Dan's ventriloquist pal was a send up of chain-smoking Nadia, and Shell made Stuart the subject of her performance.

Much of Nadia's ventriloquism was utterly incomprehensible, but the presence of "muff" under her sock puppet Shell's tutu, more than made up for it.

All in all it was good clean fun - until Jason took centre stage.

His puppet, he introduced to everyone, was modelled on his old friend Dan - or Gandalf the Gay as he insisted on calling him.

It looks nothing like me


"Can you tell the audience why your tongue is so big?" Jason asked his hand.

"So I can get it as far up Nadia's backside as possible," replied Dan the puppet.

"I'm the biggest thing to come out of Hull since the washer dryer combo," the sock proceeded to inform the audience.

Once the show was over, Jason assured Dan his performance was all in good humour and shouldn't be misinterpreted as a personal attack - before slinking off to bed, his work for the afternoon clearly done.

Once he was out of the way, the others soon began to discuss the proceedings.

Everyone assured Nadia she shouldn't take offence. "He was getting at me," Dan told her, huffily.

Looks like it worked...

All Scream For Ice Cream
Day 66, 16:45
Sunday 01 August

The housemates' efforts in this afternoon's puppetry task have been rewarded with an ice cream machine.

Shell and Stuart decided they deserved some sort of prize for all their hard work, and so cheekily went off to ask Big Brother what they could expect.

But Big Brother was one step ahead of them, and already had a laminate waiting on the Diary Room chair informing them of their icy treat, which soon arrived in the store room.

The job of dispensing ice cream from said machine was made all the more challenging for the housemates given that Stuart - for reasons known only to himself - had begun to decorate the living area with a ball of wool - stretching it from one corner to the next until it looked as if Spider Man had just dropped in.

While the others lapped up their refreshing treat, Jason - who earlier did his utmost to offend the other housemates with his puppetry take off of Dan - lay comatose in his bed.

"Are you not calling the Scottish man?" Nadia asked Dan.

"I don't know," replied Dan.

Jason better hurry up if he wants some, because the way the other four are devouring it, there won't be much ice cream left...
