Default Alex is given more airtime.

Its only a day since the highlights where she was given a montage showing all her clumsy, ditzy moments so far this series and BB have set Alex a task.

Alex and to have to complete a macarena marathon.

This must be her third/fourth secret task now when others have had none (You should know who by now ) and all of her tasks have been things she enjoys and that make her look funny.

I'm starting to think BB know about the conspiracy rumours and are just responding to their detractors with bias.

This isnt a secret task. Its a birthday task for her and Tom. They were obviously gunna get airtime for their birthdays Also, with 5 left, all will get more airtime.

The problem I have with it though, is its recycled. These two would have done anything. Yet they chose to give them the same thing that they did weeks ago. It was boring back then, and it will be boring now

As part of today’s birthday task, Tom and Alex have been set the challenge to dance to their favourite song, the Macerena. Each time Big Brother plays the chart topping single, Alex and Tom must get to the small stage in the living room within 30 seconds, and dance until the music stops. If they manage to dance along to the carefully choreographed song within the allocated time, they will win music for a party this evening. Having previously shown in the diary room that they’re a dab hand at endurance dancing, we have high hopes for the duo!


Macarena...again

..right, I see what you mean now....I would say it's more a waste of airtime than giving her something..I can't stand the Macerena at the best of times..now the Time Warp.....that's a different story...

Why do they bore us all witless with all these pointless do-able tasks?
Just give them the food and booze every night!

Oh. Apparently the macerena bit isnt everything. So hopefully they dont focus too much on that part, as its been done before

Today is a very special day in the Big Brother house has its Alex’s 19th birthday. And it’s Tom tomorrow too. So, Big Brother has got into the birthday fever and is preparing to give them a joint birthday party to remember.

The housemates awoke to the sound of the nineties dance anthem Macerena, a song that Alex and Tom have lovingly embraced since being in the House. Tom was very excited to find a small stage in the living room, which the housemates speculate may have something to do with a special birthday task!

The Macerena

As part of today’s birthday task, Tom and Alex have been set the challenge to dance to their favourite song, the Macerena. Each time Big Brother plays the chart topping single, Alex and Tom must get to the small stage in the living room within 30 seconds, and dance until the music stops. If they manage to dance along to the carefully choreographed song within the allocated time, they will win music for a party this evening. Having previously shown in the diary room that they’re a dab hand at endurance dancing, we have high hopes for the duo!

Recipe For Disaster

In the diary room Tom and Alex will have to eat all the ingredients to a birthday cake separately. The cake recipe includes, flour, eggs, sugar, butter, baking powder and chocolate icing. They will also have to eat one birthday candle. If the manage this they will win food and drinks for the party.

It’s A Wrap

Tom and Alex will both have to completely wrapped, head to toe, in birthday wrapping paper, meaning they won’t be able to see a thing. They must stay that way until further notice to win birthday presents. While they are wrapped up Big Brother will give they other housemates all the food and decorations for the party, the housemates must secretly set up the party while Tom and Alex are wrapped up. They will then surprise the birthday couple by un-wrapping them and revealing the party.

I have one million pounds for you parmnion, its not one million pounds and it dosent exist, but since I said it's one million pounds, it is.

It was a house task for everyone but Tom and Jay, the only reason Aaron was called into the diary room is because BB couldnt call all the housemates in as Jay and Tom would then figure out what was going on.

That'll be the producers fault.

Aaron has zero control of what's shown in the highlights.

Yeah, reminiscent of David in BB10...ended up finishing 3rd because his birthday was in the final week IIRC. Everyone expected him to be first out.

He's hogged all the airtime yes? He's the star of the show.

The producers could have shown more Alex, they chose not to.

No housemate can hog all the airtime.

I think it's a final push for votes. I could be wrong but that's what I think.

Anyway, one thing is certain. Most of Alex' best bits have been manufactured by BB rather than anything she's done off her own bat.

Well, as it's a task linked to her birthday..I'm going to assume it's nothing more than that
