Default Tea Cosy Task!
Quote:
The housemates have a new task... well, they are the subject of an experiment at least.

Experiment Human Nature is the name and it involves the noble, seemingly inconspicuous, yet rather iconic, tea cosy.

The housemates are being taken into a small task room one by one where they find in front of them a tea cosy. Without any prompting, Big Brother will time how long it takes for each housemate to put the cosy on their head!

Keep checking the website as we will be revealing the results to this highly scientific task later on.

What do you think will be the shortest amount of time? Which housemates do you think will take the shortest and the longest respectively? Let us know below...

Hahaha I love it!
Who will be the quickest and slowest to work out what to do?

I think -
Quickest: Corin
Slowest: Ben

I can see this task lasting a very long time.

Ben will be the slowest

Maybe Shabby Ranks as the quickest.

It seems this idea has been taken from a Stewart Lee joke. ^_^

I think Nathan might stick it on his head straight away - Ben will inspect it for tea, but finding none, he will leave it where he found it

Something that you put on your head when you see one.

Wait so Ben has all ready done it, and Ife and Josie and Mario. Did they all end up putting it on their head? I saw Ifes' and Josies' and Marios' but I didn't notice any of them put it on their head.
