Brian tells Gerry a giant porky-pie...

After this afternoon's IQ test, Brian was called to the Diary Room and asked which qualities he brought to the House. But after replying earnestly, "honesty", the 19-year-old left the Diary Room - and promptly went and told a whopping big lie!

Walking grinning into the bedroom, Brian announced, "Gerry - I won the IQ test! Way-hey-hey! I'm most cleverest housemate - check me out!"

Gerry applauded, while a wide-eyed Sam asked, "Did you?"

"Did you win it?" Tracey echoed, frowning.

"I told you I was most cleverest housemate," Brian boasted.

"That's so funny!" laughed Amanda.

"I told you I was clever," Brian informed them loftily. "Everyone thought I was stupid!"

"No," Carole shook her head, "definitely not. Definitely not."

"You're psychic, Bri," Amanda fawned.

But Gerry wasn't quite so ready to accept Brian's superior intelligence. "What did they say? What did they say?" he asked.

And Brian was willing to entangle himself in his cunning web of deceit even further: "They said, 'Brian, how do you feel about beating Gerry in the IQ test'?"

"Who said I was more intelligent?" Gerry demanded. "That's your insecurity. I never said that."

"Gerry," Brian scoffed, "You're the guy who says in the House, 'I want people to talk to me on my intellectual level'. You say that for a laugh."

"It's about general knowledge, not about intelligence," the gallery worker argued. "IQ is different."

But Brian then let the sneaky old cat out of its very big bag. "Gerry - April Fool's Day!" he laughed, seemingly unaware of the date. "I didn't win it really!"

And with that, the big porky-teller strutted out of the House into garden, as the other housemates laughed loudly. "Brian, you're great!" they chorused.

Hmm, wonder if Gerry agrees?
