Day 18: Tricia faces the Diletters task
12 mins ago
Early this morning Big Brother received a crate that was stuffed with housemates' letters from home.

Never mind that the postie doesn't come on a Sunday, let alone when there's thick snow lining the streets of Elstree. There's a whole package of emotional missives just waiting for our celebs' greedy eyes to consume them. Housemates will be given the opportunity to win as many of these letters as they possibly can but, in time honoured BB tradition, any letters not won will be completely destroyed by Big Brother and go unread. Whether she likes it or not, it's going to fall to Tricia to decide who gets news from the outside world.

Each Housemate will be set a dilemma by Big Brother. How many letters are destroyed depends entirely on whether they accept or decline the quandary.

We won't ruin the surprise (it'll be up and available later, after the task's complete), but these dilemmas are going to test housemates more than you might expect. Let's see just how homesick a celebrity can be after 18 days stuck within the same four walls. That should be fun, shouldn't it?

3.35pm: Wow. To stop a letter from home being destroyed, Rylan removes 50% of his beard. He's shaving as we type. Eek. #CBB #CBBdiletters

This means we'll get more crying from Claire and Tricia

This. The celebs are only there for 3 weeks, they can surely do without the generic "we love you and are so proud of you blah blah blah letter"

If I was away for 3 weeks, I could do without a letter from everyone telling me they miss me and are proud of me.

Good opportunity to cry on camera though.

You're either a witch, great minds think alike, or fools never differ.

zzz.

Heidi & Spencer aren't going to win CBB anyway and doubt they are bothered about a letter when they have each other, so they might as well and hope they do mess that task up, in fact hope a few of them have the guts to mess that task up. As has been pointed out, they all get their letters in the end anyway. Pointless blinking task.

mmm that's true but they're not going to say what they'd really like to say anyway when it's going to be read out on TV. They always same the same bloody thing
