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.

BB11: Twelfth Housemate Evicted From Big Brother

Day 73: It was a battle to for the last place in the Big Brother final between Dave and John James, but as the booing from the crowd indicated it was John James who got booted from BB11.

The Aussie housemate became the fourth housemate of the evening to be evicted and it came as no surprise after his arguments and strops throughout the week. John James got a massive 34.2% of the public vote in the eight way eviction.

BB11: Andrew Stone Returns For Prediction Task

Day 72: Andrew Stone returned for the Prediction Task, this time he was well aware of the negative comments housemate Andrew uttered after his last visit during the BB High Task. Big Brother picked Andrew and Dave for this task and the pair had to decide if they would rather perform with the all-singing all-dancing Andrew Stone and his guitar player Jesus from Starman, or dance every time he enters the House with his ghetto blaster.

Opting to perform with the Pineapple Studio star, they would be singing Andrew Stone's own original song entitled 'I Don't Want To Dance'. Both Dave and Andrew gave it 100% and delivered an entertaining performance in front of their housemates, Andrew really came alive and got into the performance!

Seems like Andrew has redeemed himself over comments he made about Mr Stone a few weeks prior..........

BB11 POLL: Four Housemates Eviction Prediction

Day 70: According to YOUR votes in the Big Brother Poll, it looks like one time bookies favourite Steve will be evicted on Friday. In the early days Steve looked like a certain winner with the public and the housemates. Yet 70 days is a very long time on Big Brother, and like a yo-yo, housemates popularity goes up and down.

It looks like Steve could be evicted on Friday along with Dave and Andrew, but it is Mario who has dropped the most in popularity. After entering the house as a Mole, Mario quickly became the favourite housemate but in recent weeks the public and housemates noticed his mood swings had become wider. According to latest votes, Mario has the least number of votes to win BB11 and most likely for eviction.

You still have time to vote for YOUR winner of BB11 in our Big Brother Poll at the top of this page.

BB11: Josie And Sam Listen In On Boys Conversation

Day 66: It's all been tears and arguments today after Josie and Sam listened in on a conversation between John James, JJ and Dave. The lads were in the shower having a dig at Sam, who unknown to them was hid behind the sofa with Josie while the trio spoke candidly about their feelings about him. The conversation also touched on Josie's about-turn on her feelings towards Sam so both had a vested interest in the boys' chat.

The duo heard nearly the whole conversation and whispered to each other their own feelings about what was being said. At first they giggled and found the whole thing quite funny but towards the end it became apparent that Sam was not at all happy.

In an expletive filled rant against John James he called him 'fake' and said 'I thought he was supposed to be my friend'.

He then told Josie he was going to confront him... Next came a huge argument with John!!

BB11: Sam Plays Pranks On Housemates

Day 65: Sam Pepper was full of mischief as he played tricks on unsuspecting housemates, first he got caught red-handed by Dave and John James in the midst of trying to create mayhem but he warned them that it was only the beginning.

As a pre-cursor to what was to come later, he hid Corin's tobacco which left the buxom babe fuming.

Then as his energy reached fever-pitch, he snuck into the Bathroom with some green chillis and packed them into the toothpaste before slipping garlic and vinegar into the suncream.

He remained in a playful mood and later ran through the Bedroom wearing a horse mask and holding a light which was greeted with an attack of the tickles by Dave and John James.

The cheeky little monkey was not finished there though, he hid in the clothes horse and peered out for any unsuspecting housemates who might be wandering by. Alas, he was disappointed and emerged from his garment hideout. Watch the highlights programme on Channel 4 as the Adventures of Sam unfold.......

BB11 VIDEO: Dave Breaks Down In Tears

Day 64: Not once but twice we find Dave breaking down in tears, as seen in the Big Brother video above - Dave was having an emotional cry as he revealed to Corin that he was missing his family. Then the tears really started to flow later when he received a letter from his children after Sam Pepper won the Tree of Temptation Task.

"Big Dave says, 'Love you dude, really proud of you, hope I never have to see your butt cheeks again'," Sam read out, bringing a smile to David's face.

Sam began to read the messages from David's children: "Thank you for every ounce of input you have put into our lives."

David began to cry as he continued to listen.

"You always make a conscious effort to see things through the right way," Sam continued.

"We love you and support you all the way, no matter what you do," he concluded.

David then gave Sam a hug and thanked him for what he had done as the group gathered round him. "Cheers guys, bless you. Whatever you had to do Sammy to get me this, thank you," David said.

Sam said that he couldn't say what he had done, but revealed who had challenged him to the task. "One of our wooden friends put me up to it," Sam joked, referring to the Tree of Temptation.

"I'm so pleased about that," added Mario.

"It's lush dude," David concluded, as he took the letter to the bedroom to read it again.

BB11: Sam Gets Tree of Temptation Task

Day 63: Sam has the chance to turn Dave's tears of sadness into tears of joy if he passes the latest Tree of Temptation Task.


The Tree whispered to Sam: "Oi, Where's Wally... I've been watching you, Pepper pot, running around like an oversized 7-year-old. I'm liking your work, you're a lot like me".

He added: "A little birdy tells me that you would do anything to get Dave his children's message. In my drawers is a cheeseboard, full of cheese. Grab some, and smear some under your armpits. You're gonna be the 'Brie of Temptation'."

Sam was told that if he could pass off the cheese as his own odour underneath his horse outfit with Corin today, he will successfully win David his children's message, something the minister failed to do last week.

The housemate promptly took the cheese, rubbed some under his armpits and went back to the sofas, with none of the housemates noticing him talking to the Tree.

Earlier, David cried about the missed message and he was emotional again this afternoon, saying: "It's just a build-up, innit? I'll be fine."

Watch the show on Wednesday to find out if Sam Pepper passes or fails to win the message for Dave.

BB11: Sam Pepper Faces Eviction Vote

Day 62: After surviving being up for the public vote earlier today during nominations, Sam Pepper ended the day becoming the fourth housemate up for eviction on Friday.

Mario saved himself after winning the 'Save And Replace' Task, after remembering 22 animal noises. He picked Sam to replace himself and join Jo, Dave and JJ facing the public vote on Friday. Currently the bookies favourite to be evicted is Jo. Mario told housemates, "This is nothing personal, but if that person wants to come up and ask me why, I'll tell them."

BB11: Bookies Eviction Prediction

Day 59: Unless there is a huge shift in public opinion later tonight, then it looks like Rachel will become the seventh housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother house, according to the bookies.

Paddy Power have the odds as: Rachel 4/11 John James 2/1 David 16/1

A few weeks ago Dave would have been the housemate most likely to be evicted in the public vote, but he has continually improved his standing and grown in public affections. Rachel, as a newer housemate has had less time to make an impression and sadly has her accent going against her. Yet she has proved to be an active housemate, truly getting involved in all the Tasks.

John James will get his highest number of votes tonight as viewers turn against him after some comments he made during the week and his relationship with Josie came under the spotlight more in recent days.

Although Paddy Power has Rachel as a dead cert, you can never write off Big Brother viewers for delivering a different result!

BB11: Housemates Punished Over Sam Pepper

Day 58: You either love him or hate him, even the mention of Sam Pepper has managed to get some of the housemates into trouble with Big Brother.

Housemates gathered on the sofas and Big Brother played conversations from Dave, Rachel and John James into the House. These conversations had one recurring topic: Sam Pepper.

In the conversation, John James said 'of course he's going to be up...everyone's going to put him up'. Dave insinuated that Sam would also be high on the nominations hit list, referring that his future in the House is like 'shooting a fish in a barrel'.

As a result, Dave, John James and Rachel will be forbidden from nominating Sam next week, and Big Brother has told housemates that if they fail to comply with the rules regarding nominations, further punishments will be imminent. Sam Pepper could now escape being up for nomination if this is anything to go by. Meanwhile you can vote in our POLL - Do you love or hate Sam Pepper?

BB11 POLL: Best Body Poll Results

Big Brother fans voted in our 'Which Housemate Has The Best Body' Poll and almost half of you agreed that Aussie housemate John James was the fittest with boxer JJ second with 31%. The top female housemate was Corin on 24%, as viewers gave their approval of the busty favourite.

Other housemates all lagged behind, only Dave failed to get a single vote in the BB11 Poll. Josie and Rachel were joint fourth, followed by evicted housemate Ben on 4%. Sadly Andrew, Mario and Jo got just 2% of the vote and Steve got just 1 vote.

*BB official website: www.channel4.com/bigbrother

BB11: Mario Saved From Eviction

Day 56: Mario won the Save And Replace Task, saving himself from the public vote. He then faced the agonising decision of picking another housemate to replace himself.

With only four girls left in the house, Mario turned his attention to the boys. Andrew and JJ were safe because Andrew was up last week and JJ is still new. He eventually tossed a coin to choose between Dave and Steve, it was Dave who ended up being picked by Mario.

Dave said he understood Mario's selection process and had no hard feelings. He will now be joining Rachel and John James for this week's public vote.

BB11: Housemates Concerned After Messages From Home

Day 54: Dave and Corin became the latest housemates threatening to quit the Big Brother house after Messages From Home failed to lift their spirits. Instead, Dave was concerned for his wife and children after receiving his message. He told Steve that her message was 'flat' and he could have delivered a more positive message himself.

He continued,"I don't want to go but I'm ready to walk out if I have to"

"I won't stay if me being here is putting pressure on my family because the messages just weren't positive"

"They gave go no indication that everything was alright and there was no messages from my family saying that my they supported me, they just weren't excited".

Meanwhile Corin became concerned when her video message only featured a picture of her mum with audio, "It could be that your mum is just nervous to do it," Mario reassured her – but it wasn’t enough to dispel her doubts. "I wanted to see her face smiling, it's made me think," she replied.

Steve expressed his concern about her reaction to the message. "If they don't tell her [why her mum didn't record a message] she'll go. I think she'll go," he told Mario. "Her mum's her everything, her mum's her rock," he added.

The situation was rectified by Big Brother, who spoke to Corin in the Diary Room to explain the situation to her.

BB11: Sam Fails Secret Task

Day 54: New housemate Sam will have to get used to wearing the ridiculous outfits provided by Big Brother after failing his Secret Task last night. Dave and the other housemates quickly rumbled Sam as he began prancing around in a pink tracksuit and a tu-tu during his task.

The other housemates reminded the newbie that Ben had to last six weeks without his suitcase and they would be on hand to lend the 21 year-old clothes and toiletries during his stay in the house. Sam has wasted no time in spicing things up inside the Big Brother house - jumping into bed with Josie, quizzing Josie about her relationship with John James. He was also in trouble with Big Brother for play fighting with the Bristol girl.

Expect sparks to fly during the coming days as Sam delivers his own brand of anarchy and opinion, he is expected to rub housemates up as he ruffles a few feathers inside the BB11 house.

BB11: Latest Housemate To Be Evicted From Big Brother Is....

Day 52: The Big Brother house was a crazy place to be tonight as Davina McCall and Jedward went into the house and yet another housemate joined BB11. It was a close battle between Dave and Ben, but it was Ben who got the most votes in the public vote with 52%. Dave and Andrew were told they were safe from eviction after Davina left the house. Josie was worried that John James would be evicted after he went head to head with Ben.

Ben became unpopular with some of the housemates and annoyed the public with his lack-lustre effort in the Ignore The Obvious Task. The question remains - what will Mario do now his former best friend in the house has gone?
