UBB: Nasty Nick Writes Notes Again

Day 80: The Tree of Temptation has caused Nick Bateman to return as Nasty Nick with the latest Task.

The Tree revealed who was up for eviction this week and provided him with slips of paper on which he had to write the names of those people and hide them around the House.

Nick promptly set about his task and immediately began writing on and hiding the slips of paper.

The reward the housemates will receive if he is successful is plush cotton bedsheets for the Bedroom.



In true Big Brother style, Darren from Big Brother 1 entered the House and immediately began acting very suspiciously, searching around the House for something...

He then started finding slips of paper with people's names on hidden in various places. These slips of paper were those hidden by Nick for his Tree of Temptation Task and they revealed the names of those people who are up for eviction.

However, Nick was unaware that Darren was tasked to find these slips of paper and he started behaving extremely nervously, denying he was involved and playing the innocent victim.

A short while later, Big Brother gathered all the housemates at the kitchen table and it was clear that Darren was set to make an announcement of some kind.

'Nasty' Nick, slips of paper, a meeting at the Kitchen table... ring any bells? What was Big Brother up to...?

Big Brother then announced that Darren would be announcing this weeks nomination results and that he should read out the names on the slips of paper he had found; Coolio and John McCririck.
It was all a big game played out expertly by Big Brother and his cheeky friend the Tree to reveal the nominations to the housemates! What a couple of sneaky schemers!!

UBB: Chantelle In Tears

Day 79: Preston and Chantelle would have been celebrating their 4th wedding anniversary this week, but instead the divorced former Celebrity Big Brother housemates are being forced to see each other as the nation tunes in.

The pressure took it's toll on Chantelle Houghton as she was reduced to tears after a discussion about her failed relationship with Preston. John McCririck mentioned it would be the final send off for Ultimate Big Brother if Chantelle and Preston got together again.

All the talk of divorce became too much for Chantelle and she ran to the Bathroom and started crying.

John immediately came in and apologised to the blonde beauty as he was concerned that she was upset.

Chantelle told the racing pundit that it wasn't him at all who made her cry. Chantelle went on to mention that it would have been her and Preston's 4th anniversary.

Preston went in and comforted Chantelle with a one-to-one conversation and he soon got her smiling. Fans of Big Brother are hoping that the pair can rekindle some of the romance they discovered when they first met on the programme.

Seems like everyone has been in tears since Ultimate Big Brother launched on Tuesday night - Josie, Nikki, Ulrika and Makosi have cried since returning to the BB house!

UBB: Josie Wants To Leave Big Brother House

Day 79: The novelty of being surrounded by former Big Brother housemates has worn off for Josie and now the BB11 winner wants out! Late into the night, a tearful Josie made her way to the Diary Room to speak to Big Brother.

'I can't handle it anymore' sobbed the Bristolian winner. When asked by Big Brother just what exactly she couldn't handle, she replied 'All of it. I just can't handle it'.

Big Brother reassured Josie, and reminded her that she was 'a winner', however a woeful Jose said that she 'doesn't feel like one'.

'I went out there and seen all my friends and family, and then I've seen John and I've just had to walk straight back in here', she wept. 'It doesn't feel like the same House anymore'.

Big Brother reminded Josie that it is the same House that she has been living in for the past 12 weeks, yet Josie said it felt like the walls were 'closing in' on her.


'You'd think I'd be happy, wouldn't you?' she questioned to herself.

Having expressed her concerns to Brian that she feels like 'a nobody', Josie confided her fears to Big Brother. 'I do miss my old housemates', admitted the blubbing blonde. 'I'm not like these people. They're all celebrities. I'm normal'.

Josie declared that she wanted to leave the House. 'I feel really trapped in here. I just want to go'.

Weeping into her tissue, Josie repeated 'I really want to go'. Will she walk out of the house? Stay tuned!

BB11: Big Brother Final

Day 77: Josie Gibson was crowned the winner of Big Brother 11, with an impressive 77.5% of the public vote. Winning a £100,000, Josie told Davina she would give £20,000 to charity. She became one of the greatest housemates ever as she entertained the nation with her straight talking and simple ways. Viewers became addicted to the relationship between Josie and John James as it grew over the summer, although at times the relationship became quite fiery!

Crowds cheered as she was interviewed by Davina McCall, who told her she was beautiful on the inside and outside. John James was on hand to hug and kiss her before she re-entered the house for Ultimate Big Brother.

Who would have thought Dave could have finished second in BB11? Normally the religious housemates are annoying but Dave managed to win the housemates over and us with his weird and wonderful ways. Talking about the glory didn't put us off as we got to know the Welshman more and more. He proved he was up for a laugh and didn't shirk away from the tasks set by Big Brother. With 9.1% of the public vote, Dave was able to leave the house with his head held high - he did himself proud.

Mario entered the Big Brother house as a mole and left BB11 in third place, after having a roller coaster journey during his 77 days in the house. No other housemate had so many highs and lows as Mario and no other housemate got so naked as Mario. He received 5.1% of the vote and Davina asked him if he was really a nudist at heart after discussing his large left testicle. Mario said that he wasn't a nudist and he was shocked Big Brother showed his nude stunts.

JJ finished fourth on 4.5% of the public vote, just ahead of Andrew. He entered the house on Day 45 after being picked by the other housemates, as one of three new housemates. He quickly became friends with John James and caught the eye of Corin, but things turned sour very quickly between JJ and Corin.


Andrew came fifth with just 3.9% of the public vote and was greeted by the cheering crowd and a warm smile. The geek proved to be a winner in the house after arriving on Day 31 and coming out of his shell to become a great housemate to watch as he gave 100% during each task.

The treats on offer included muffins, fruit, pastries and orange juice.

The domestic goddess couldn't resist asking the housemates about their cleaning routines and she listened with great interest as she quizzed Mario on how often they got to use the hoover and how many times a week the group wash their bed sheets.

The housemates, who were still half asleep, kept on commenting on how surreal their wake up was but they were clearly all thrilled with their unexpected early morning feast.Josie was the most excited to see Anthea, screaming loudly!

After Anthea left the House Welshman Dave revealed that he used to have a major crush on the former Blue Peter presenter when he was younger and commented that she still looked amazingly good for her age.

Josie summed the mood of the group up by jokingly saying "We're getting served breakfast by a celebrity, just who do we think we are?"
