A Wild West style showdown woke
housemates this morning. The living
room was filled with straw bales and
the Diary Room and garden
decorated with cacti.
It could only mean one thing – task
time.
Conor and Sara agreed the House
looked amazing while Luke S,
understandably cautious after
yesterday’s BB stitch up, rearranged
his roses. Caroline said it sounded
quite fun as Adam moaned, "I hate
the wild, wild west."
Big Brother requested the housemate,
'most at home where the buffalo
roam', come to the Diary Room.
Conor nominated himself, prompting
Becky to ask, "Are there buffalos in
Ireland?" No Becky, they are not
indigenous to the emerald isle.
The two day Gold Rush shopping task
will see housemates split into three
teams with The Good, The Bad and
The Really Ugly housemates going
head to head in the search for gold.
Conor’s decision to go to the diary
room means he will be sheriff and he
picked Caroline as his deputy. This
caused her to squeal, a lot and
prompted Scott to call her a baby.
Harsh? Maybe not.
Conor and Caroline will be calling the
shots for two whole days.
The three teams are also playing for
immunity from nominations and Big
Brother has raised the stakes with
Monday’s noms being face to face –
nightmare!
Each task will begin with housemates
panning for gold. The amount of gold
eventually panned will decide whether
or not they have passed the shopping
task.
There are two parts to the task today –
Raw Hide – a shoot ‘em up in the
garden and The Hoedown – a country
music dance off which will see
housemates choreographing routines
to a live ukulele band.
Will our cowboys get the blues or will
they emerge with a fist full of luxury
shopping budget dollars?

Day 41: The Gold Rush task
22 mins ago

A Wild West style showdown woke housemates this morning. The living room was filled with straw bales and the Diary Room and garden decorated with cacti.

It could only mean one thing – task time.

Conor and Sara agreed the House looked amazing while Luke S, understandably cautious after yesterday’s BB stitch up, rearranged his roses. Caroline said it sounded quite fun as Adam moaned, "I hate the wild, wild west."

Big Brother requested the housemate, 'most at home where the buffalo roam', come to the Diary Room. Conor nominated himself, prompting Becky to ask, "Are there buffalos in Ireland?" No Becky, they are not indigenous to the emerald isle.

The two day Gold Rush shopping task will see housemates split into three teams with The Good, The Bad and The Really Ugly housemates going head to head in the search for gold.

Conor’s decision to go to the diary room means he will be sheriff and he picked Caroline as his deputy. This caused her to squeal, a lot and prompted Scott to call her a baby. Harsh? Maybe not.

Conor and Caroline will be calling the shots for two whole days.

The three teams are also playing for immunity from nominations and Big Brother has raised the stakes with Monday’s noms being face to face – nightmare!

Each task will begin with housemates panning for gold. The amount of gold eventually panned will decide whether or not they have passed the shopping task.

There are two parts to the task today – Raw Hide – a shoot ‘em up in the garden and The Hoedown – a country music dance off which will see housemates choreographing routines to a live ukulele band.

Will our cowboys get the blues or will they emerge with a fist full of luxury shopping budget dollars?

Oh Dear Connor and Caroline immune?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Wait so if a team wins all members win immunity? Sounds good

Wait are Conor and Caroline immune?

[Cherie]

wow superb... apart from Beckys comment... C5 what can I say another great task.

[Gillian-73]

I'm not sure about Conor and Caroline, i hope not!

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Live nominations face to face will be interesting

I'm a tad confused about that, it says the three teams fight for immunity! Maybe Conor and Caroline will automatically be immune if the task is passed, i'm just guessing!

[Jords]

Conor and Caroline in charge my heart is with you fellow HMs

[Jords]

Live noms should be good, though people will be too cowardly to nominate Conor, except Deana.

[Craiggy]

AKA

BBs Deana and Lauren stitch up!!!

Face 2 Face creates sheep. They will nominate with the ones who nominated first, Luaren and Deana are the weakest and they will go for them, its obvious. Dont like this task.

However maybbe one of them wins immunity. Connor is safe either way, nobody apart from Deana would nominate him in front of him!

How is Deana and Lauren being stiched up? BB asked one person to go to the D.r and Conor went, they did not pick him.

They will probably have to write their noms down first to prevent this, however some HMs will be too scared and pick the weaker link.

Its much better to show their nominations in the DR straight after imo

Actually I disagree with my previous statement, I think Live noms are terrible idea as people will just end nominating people who nominated them

[Marc]

Immunity..? This just means Conor will be safe

[Gillian-73]

Live noms never go as good as you hope they will imo.

[Black Dagger]

Oh FFS.

What a stupid idea.

Conor is definitely safe with or without immunity, the ****ing pussy's won't nominate him face to face.

[Marc]

Face-to-face nomos is good

[Black Dagger]

The only time face-to-face nomos was ever good was in CBB9 when they thought they had it sussed and got K&K and Madsen up, yet everybody with a nom was. <3.

It'll be like JJJ all over again, everybody will be too scared to go for somebody like Conor, so they'll target Deana and Lauren.

[Craiggy]

It will go;

Adam: Luke S and Caroline
Becky: Luke S and Caroline
Connor: Lauren and Deana

And then the people will follow on with them housemates to save themselves from nominating others and following the crowd! Bull crap of a twist!

This is were the confusion lies.... it says one of the three teams win immunity but Conor and Caroline aren't in a team cos they're the Sheriff and deputy

[Marc]

so teams of 3?

hmmm

[Gillian-73]

I disagree! They'll just follow each other more than likely

[sampvt]

face to face noms are good and bad. They are good from a controvosy point of view but bad becasue as soon as someone gets a few votes, the others follow that trend to make sure tye wont be up themselves. It also promotes the pick on the weak scenario.

Hopefully conor will be up again so we can see the public do like him and all his haters on here will go onto something else more interesting for a change.

Yeah! To be put together by Conor and Caroline. Best case scenario for me is Deana Adam Lauren are in the same team and they win immunity

[Black Dagger]

Team of Deana, Adam and Lauren please.

And they win
