Some stuff happened. Bex is grotesque.
Oh, you want details? Fine.
The most interesting thing is Mikey stuffing sand into the hourglass. After that, Kat doing a bouncy jump in the cold water shower is practically erotic. The alarm shenanigans continue. Darnell, in his dark glasses, looks like a robber from a bad 1980s action movie. This is especially funny when you see him dealing with clocks, for some reason. Archaeology - contrary to what Time Team and that new drama on BBC 1 suggest - does not make for enthralling TV.
Other things that are completely ordinary in every way is Luke doing a terrible non-impression of Davina, acting out the eviction evening. In his little play, Darnell is evicted. Mikey talks about filling sand and wanting to do the alarm task. He is a little bit impassioned and starts to shout. Rex apparently has genuine cog-assembling skills. Oh, and Big Brother is a dick when it sets off five alarms in the alarm room, some of which were in drawers, and which Mo Mohammed and Darnell had absolutely no chance of finding in time. Loading the odds against them isn’t cricket, BB.
The results of the task challenges come through, and they fail some stuff. But then, they win some stuff overall. It all comes down to the alarm challenge, and… They pass. 4 fails out of an allowed 5, and they win a luxury shopping budget. Everyone, for one brief moment, is united in their own success, forgetting that it was most Mo Mohammed and Darnell that won that task for them.
Maysoon and Stuart talk about whether they have changed. Maysoon cannot remember what she was like the week she arrived. THREE WEEKS AGO. She is, apparently, memory-deficient, like some sort of Carp. The housemates all talk about how they’ve changed. Bex and Luke talk about Rachel, and how she was the loudest person in their audition. I remember those audition tapes. “I will not stop talking,” she said, which she didn’t, until she got into the house. They all think she’s gameplaying. The housemates have two different silent-disco style parties. Mikey sings Barbie Girl in a hideous high-pitched voice.
In a side note: who is this awful man hosting Big Mouth? He is just dire.
People worry about choosing between friends - DARNELL OR BEX, YOU DECIDE! - and Rex goes off on Rachel with ambiguous phrasings that make no sense and accusations of two-facedness. I don’t know, do we care about this stuff? Last friday I remarked that, because ratings had fallen, Big Brother would pull some surprises out of its hat. It didn’t. And it’s a real shame, as this week has been quite slow. Hopefully the eviction tomorrow will put the cat (Bex) amongst the pigeons (blood-lusted public), and it’ll lead to some changes.
At least the episode doesn’t end with Bex fiddling with Luke under the covers again.
