Bea emerged from a trip to the Diary Room with a happier outlook on life in the House following her earlier misery over the lack of a message from her mother.



"You feeling better Bea?" asked Lisa when she came strutting into the Kitchen.



"Yeah, I am. Loads better, loads better. Just hearing that from my mum," gushed Bea.



"What?" asked David, glancing up from the calorific fry-up he was busy concocting.



"They said to me that obviously Big Brother is in touch with people's families and Big Brother can tell you that your mum is incredibly proud of you," revealed Bea. "They asked me what advice I thought my mum would give me. I think she'd tell me to snap out of it."



She then momentarily tore David away from his frying pan to grab a hug.



"That will keep you going now," he reassured. "They didn't have to tell you that did they?"



"No, but I knew my mum would be proud," she said. "I don't want my mum to feel bad. I don't want my mum to look bad. My mum's such a private person and that's why she didn't want to do the video. Then me getting upset draws more attention to her than a 30 second video would have."



Well, maybe she should stop getting upset then...
