Derek has been reflecting on the awesome effect being nominated has had on the Housemates.

With the entire group facing the public vote, Derek feels tomorrow "could be a momentous day".

The Tory has been surprised by the change in the potential evictees. "Self doubt is going in and out of people's minds... In that sense it's a very equal House," he reflected.

Derek thought this could only be a good thing as most were in dire need of a slice of humble pie.
"It's an interesting thing when strong, charismatic people show vulnerability," he mused. "It's kind of endearing."

And Derek's own mind is prepared for the worst. "The landlords of the most famous house in England are the British people. They'll decide who they want to turf out onto the streets," he declared, adding, "I'll take the blow on the chin like a man."
