Big Brother housemates given the chance to phone home
Big Brother Live Task, Saturday 13th July, 10pm

Today, (Saturday 13th July) the housemates will be given their seventh task to complete during the live task show on Channel 4 which will entitle one of them a phone call to a loved one.

This week, Big Brother will test how well the group have got to know each other during the past seven weeks. They must work together as a team as the result will not only dictate the amount of money they have to spend on provisions this week, but will also directly affect the amount of time one of them will be able to spend on a phone call to a person of their choice.

At 10pm tomorrow, the housemates will be called to the diary room in turn and asked a question about one of their fellow housemates. This will be repeated three times. Each correct answer earns the whole group £20 to spend on shopping this week. Most importantly to the housemates, however, each correct answer will also entitle one of them an extra five seconds of phone time.

At the end of the task, the housemates have to decide amongst themselves which of them they feel most deserves the prize of a phone call to a family member or friend. The amount of time the lucky housemate will be allowed to spend on the call is dependent on the group’s success as a whole during the task.
