The Albino Singer That Everyone Is Friends With.
According to the bit of text on Sky+, this episode features “highlights from the past 24 hours, including Darnell admitting he has treated some housemates badly.”
HOLD THE FRAKKING PHONES THERE’S A NEW HEADLINE FOR TOMORROW’S SUN!
I should point out that I know the result prior to writing this, but Sara’s boos are far, far louder than Lisa’s. She’ll surely be evicted, right? WHAT IF AN UPSET OCCURRED? In the house, Mikey and Lisa discuss their noms and how Rex has managed to stay as long as he has, and Darnell cries in the diary room with a talk that is veering so close to suicidal I would honestly be concerned if I were BB. In the living room Rex gets narky about Sara having had too many twos on his cigarettes. Whilst Darnell cries, the housemates speculate that Darnell is walking from the house. “It’s your fault, Sara,” says Rex, “because you embarrassed him so many times.” Then they talk about her like she isn’t even there! This conversation goes on far too long: Sara made Darnell feel bad, apparently, and Darnell is an absolute victim in this situation and Rex shouts at people to shut up loads.
What’s most depressing about this whole thing is that Sara has to run after and be nice to Rex as he is the only one with cigarettes. Oh, and look, Darnell is talking about going home. Big Brother calls Rex into the diary room to remind that, with regards to Sara, his behaviour is being monitored. And then they say the weirdest thing: “It’s important, Rex, to think of how your behaviour will be seen by the viewing public.” Rex then gets very very defensive. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” He’s going to get torn apart when he leaves. Torn apart. He then goes and shouts at Sara a bit. This is ridiculous: a house full of people who are either overly aggressive bullies, have guilt complexes, or are a cunning mixture of both. Sara then says that she thinks that Rex is a good boyfriend. Does she fancy him? UGH. Sara then goes mad and creates an insane victim complex – I’m not joking – where she twists some stuff that Rex said and changes the order of events to make him out to be worse than he is, all spurred on – some might even say orchestrated by – Mikey (who I have always disliked as well, and have found very, very sly). I hate Rex – HATE him – but this is truly odd. We, the viewer, watched her have a cigarette with him, a cigarette that she is now denying ever happened etc… It’s a bit weird. Oh, but Kat likes him, so whatever.
Rex then bans Mikey from talking to him or “mentioning (my) name”. Mikey is no longer allowed to say Rex’s name, therefore, which is the best thing to happen this entire series. I want to know what will happen to him if he does. Rex and Mikey then have a fight about who is the most miserable. I wish I were joking.
And, after the break, all of a sudden Rex comes out and apologises and shakes Mikey’s hand. I wonder if BB has had even more of a talk? Because this is super bi-polar right here. Rex then moans, and then Sara and Darnell moan, and then Darnell says, “I’m tired of being myself. I’m tired of being the albino singer that everyone is friends with.” This still comes down to wanting to be fancied. “Darnell, it isn’t your looks, it’s your personality!” Sara says, and Darnell corrects her: “Personality means nothing.” That’s the problem right there, I think.
“Six more days,” says Darnell, and I totally know how he feels.
AND LISA’S OUT!
