In today’s task housemates will get a chance to win a letter from home, but only if they successfully disarm a device.

The housemates are currently sitting pretty in the bedroom, but on Big Brothers call, will find nine ‘letter bombs of love’ in the living area. Inside each bomb will be a letter from one of the housemates loved ones.

The housemates will be asked multiple choice questions and the correct answer will correspond with the correct wire to cut. These bombs will be activated at various times throughout the day and the housemates will be charged with the mission to disable their bombs before they detonate. If the housemates fail to disarm the bomb in two minutes it’ll be boom bye bye to those lovely letters.

Great task.

I have to say: some of the tasks this year have been incredibly well thought out with lots of fun to them.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this one goes.

Good on yer BB. Sometimes you do get it right.

Hmm...i guess they've been ok. I might be a bit old skool, but i question whether the HMs need to be stimulated every day by a constant flow of new tasks.

Are they really that boring to be watched unaided by BBs task department?

Do we need to see em dressed up in novelty trucker fat suits, driving mini cars around a circuit and scoffing 8 hamburgers in 10 minutes?

Maybe we do, and i'm just old and boring..

Locke. · 15-10-2011, 02:51 PM

I'm guessing the ones that don't get their letters will get another task later in the week or something.. they always find a way to give them the stuff anyway

This.

I remember BB7's Letters from Home, emotional sh*t.

Black Dagger · 15-10-2011, 02:51 PM

I've really enjoyed all the tasks this year... Big Brother can get it right at times...

With BB this year, Aarons is probably from Antons friends, telling him what an idiot he is.

mizzy25 · 15-10-2011, 03:01 PM

wonder if harry or Aaron will sabotage this one? maybe someone shud do it to them. although harrys spoken to his mam already

Scream · 15-10-2011, 03:04 PM

oh dear, in all fairness I do hope Jay or Anton should sabotage this task so Aaron doesn't get a letter from home. Only fair.

Locke. · 15-10-2011, 03:10 PM

Aaron may consider walking if the letter is from his son.

I can remember it drove Stu in BB9 suicidal and he begged everyone to nominate him

Fact or Fiction?

fiction methinks - or wishful thinking.

I think tasks like this, are bitter sweet for the hms. Some take it positively, and with others, the impact of missing their loved ones seems to effect them all the more so after receiving these letters.

Suze · 15-10-2011, 03:14 PM

This is reminiscent of a task in BB7 I think it was, when a couple of letters got burned. All the tasks this year are reminiscent of previous BB tasks. I wish C5 would think up their own new tasks.

Also think 'all' the housemates should get the letters regardless of a silly task that could destroy some of the letters.

but of course if they let 'all' the housemates get a letter then that would have also have been done before by C4 sooo..

The letters don't have to be part of a task though, why not just give them for reaching that far in BB. It's the tasks themselves that need to stop being rehashes of C4 ones, which is what the latest letter task is, a slight variation on an old C4 one.

Why would it be wishful thinking, I actually like Aaron

I just know that if I was in there and got a letter from someone I was missing as much as Aaron is missing his son, I would consider walking. As have housemates in the past.

You need to stop being so aggressive Pyramid you are scaring off new members.

Hence why I asked if it was fact or fiction - and added in that it may also have been wishful thinking?

you need to stop jumping to the wrong conclusions Locke and stop making accusations that are uncalled for.
