Rodrigo has come in at 5th place, having been evicted with 11 per cent of the public vote to win.

The good news is that he can now deliver his letter to the Queen to Buckingham Palace in person, just to make sure she reads it.

But oh, the bad news. Rodrigo was everyone's favourite stroppy Brazilian, especially Charlie. The pair formed a touching 'bromance' that sometimes threatened to become more - but despite numerous under-cover smooches, they never admitted there was anything going on. Rodrigo and Charlie's relationship was the closest, but also the most explosive, in the House. We'll now be deprived of the frequent memorable squabbles between the pair.

Not that Charlie was the only one to feel Rodrigo's considerable wrath. Halfwit, Dogface, Marcus and Big Brother himself also got on the wrong end of a Rodrigo tongue-lashing. But the best thing about his tantrums was that, no matter how angry he got, he never managed to appear any more intimidating than the Cheshire Cat he dressed up as in the 'Alice' Task.

Speaking of the Cheshire Cat, who can forget Rodrigo's prized asset: his glistening, brilliantly white and perfectly formed set of teeth? But now it's time to flash those magnificent gnashers at the paparazzi in the real world... See ya Rodrigo, or as they say in Brazil: adeus!

Someone's gonna get a fair whack of the vote.

Thanks for this Mickey

Having survived to the final night of the show is no mean achievement, so coming in fifth place brings absolutely no shame…

Still, when Davina's voice drifted through announcing that the votes had been counted and verified, it was still a shock to Rodrigo.

"Roddy, oh Roddy!" squealed Sophie.

"I love you to pieces and I'll see you in a minute," said David with a hug.

But there was no time for small talk – it was time for Rodrigo to head for the door and face the crowd
