Day 2: Basement Pipes Task
1 hour ago
Housemates in the main House awoke this morning with delight at their privileged status tempered by just one thing:no hot water. Hot water: bringer of lovely showers on winter mornings, hot water, a reason to rejoice in cleanliness, hot water... The point is it wasn’t on, nuh huh. As usual, Big Brother gives with one hand and takes away with the other. Also like usual, a task was brewing.

Rylan read out the details of the task and it boils (ha) down to this. To win back hot water for both sides of the House (naturally poor basement dwellers are also without), housemates in the main House must choose one housemate from the basement to take part in a task to unblock the pipes. Sounds glamourous.

The chosen housemate will enter the basement section of the garden and face a series of blocked pipes – full of disgusting and putrid contents – which they must use their hands to unblock. The more they remove from the dirty pipes, the higher a water level will raise up a sliding scale from ‘freezing’ to ‘hot!’

Once all the pipes have been cleared, hot water will be switched back on for the main House and buckets of hot water will be delivered to the housemates in the basement.
