Day 29 Live Day part 1

9.24am, Corin and Ife are peering through the blinds in the bedroom. Nathan tries to get out but the door is locked. At 9.54am, after the alarm and bed tips, HM's rush out of the bedroom to meet their surprise visitor. 

JOHN JAMES IS TOO SEXY FOR THIS ROBOT (James 32 video):

Josie is reluctant to leave the bedroom because she is frightened by things like that and doesn't like it! Corin says she should see the one on the settee which looks like the Tinman; John is out there eyeing Titan up suspiciously, not quite sure what to make of this mystery man! Big Brobot speaks out for the first time prohibiting HM's from touching the robot; Ife imitates this straight after. As shown on the HL's show, those in the living room are startled by Titan starting up and even Mario is scared out of his socks!

TITAN: (documents) Star command, Titan the robot. Mission log: Stargate 4704. Just arrived at this strange planet, inhabitants appear friendly but there seems to be no sign of .. intelligence anywhere. (this tickles them no end) 

As he begins to stride around the room, the shrieks are numerous and it is scaring Corin! Titan glares directly at Nathan and in the voice of some cartoon/TV character (which could well be Duckman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0eZ7_cqE-g)  demands 'What the hell are you staring at?' There are lots of sound dips accounting for the songs being played; John is the bashful victim of the first (I'm too sexy for my shirt) and then Titan's attention is turned to Corin. 
Further rife SC's for the interlude of Oasis karaoke inspired by Nathan Dunn. It is much kinder on the ear drums to watch this clip rather than the HL's version as you don't have to hear Corin 'singing' along!! Trust me, your gratitude will be eternally abundant :P He roams around his new home like he owns the place and whatever he does behind Ben's back (of which I do not know as the sound was cut for several minutes) it has the HM's in hoots!!

Mario is jumping for joy that their new HM rocks, he really loves Titan! Shortly after Titan relays the important message about Brobots taking over the house (as seen on HL's) Josie cautiously creeps back into the living room to listen to the proclamation. (SC) Mars shoves John straight into Titan's pincers and asks if everyone else loves their new friend. Corin had been shaking but wants to understand what will happen when they undertake the series of tasks. 

She is given the score by Mario that basically Titan is a borg like on Star Trek and if they fail they become borgs like the collective. After Josie asks her question from the HL's about anyone else being frightened of him, they are all shocked when he rears his ugly head again. Through his mouth Marcus Bentley is saying 'Day 4, Day 6, Day 69, Day 10,004 (SC) one-o-one-o-one-o-one' (SC as more music is played via Titan) 

The ideal song to play would have been 'I am Titanium' by David Guetta but it hadn't been released in 2010. After more singing and dancing in an additional lengthy soundcut, Corin squawks in amazement and asks Dave how much it would have cost as it looks like there's a real human in it. All of the HM's are ordered to go to the bedroom immediately which is ignored by everyone. Particularly Nathan and Corin who dash outside for a quick cig. 

John and Mario have a wiggly jiggy on top of the sofas (to whatever music is now playing from Titan's body) and h'obviously John's signature Parton patented jumpy, shuffling moves come out!! Bless him he's an embarrassment to the art of dancing! As the HM's took no notice of Brobot's first directive to go to the bedroom, he issues the same command again. Not a single soul drops what they are doing to obey but continue to blatantly disregard instructions. (SC) 
This is where Mario seizes his moment to hit on the statuesque being that towers over even John and Nathan. He fancies his chances with the Ironman but gets the brutal knock back when Titan switches off because Mario doesn't turn him on! ;) 

MARIO: (slobbers over) That is the coolest thing ever! (SC) That is the coolest thing ever! (we heard you the first time) That tops the puppets and everything now! We said we wondered what our new HM would be like. 

Knowing that Ife is terrified of it he tries to get her to come give him a hug, she darts out of the door to escape. (SC) John and Mario have a cuddle of their own in front of Titan instead and boogie on down some more during the muted sound. Ife is another one convinced that there is a person inside Titan (and I think I heard somewhere that there is a man underneath the robogear) Big Brobot reminds them to wear their microphones at all times and for the 3rd time announces for them to go to the bedroom. The 3rd time is not a charm. 

More SC's and then the Marcus Bentley voice is stuck on again 'HM's must obey Big Brobot' corrrr these are a flaming disobedient lot!! Josie is reluctant to come back in and loiters in the doorway fearful of walking past the Titan, eventually she scarpers by with a few little squeals. John chooses to go into the bathroom instead of the bedroom but most of the smokers are still puffing away out by the carousel. 

Eventually Corin and Nathan come back indoors too and John returns to the bedroom with his toothbrush. Corin cheeks to Titan 'What are you looking at?'

NATHAN: (retorts) Hey! Shut your noise! I'm trying to have a pot of tea. (SC)
Caoimhe and Ife are the last two to scurry back to the bedroom; Ife is especially skittish and easily spooked as they run by frantically. (SC) Mario is the most perceptibly enthused by their new HM and Ife asks for a run down of what they actually have to do in order to beat him for their shopping task. Mario gives her the lowdown that it is akin to a war and they could be turned into robots too. 

The bedroom curtains are closed, supposedly so Titan can move into the Task room and other things for the challenges can be set up with HM's out of the way. Nathan shares Mario's excitement buzz and thinks it is fantastic! Dave doesn't reckon anybody is inside Titan and that he is just a remote-controlled machine. (SC) Big Brobot asks HM's to ensure that no pillows are obstructing the beds, though for what purpose I can't tell as to my recollection no robots enter the bedroom throughout the shopping task. 

WHATM:

10.24am, John and Josie find where the robot came in; BB-Bot harks up 'HM's leave the alcove immediately. John James shut the alcove door!'
Josie is talking about Robot Wars.

10.34am, Boiling water on the stove and Ben was about to nick it. John said it's his; Ben says that if someone leaves water there to boil unattended then that's their problem and he'll just take it. Then asks John if it is his water; John replies 'yes would you have taken it if I had said no?'

BEN: Yes of course I would have taken it, makes sense, instead of it going cold.

JOHN: I don't believe you, Ben.
10.55am, HM's called to sofas. Mario & Ben ignore Big Bro-bot & continue shaving. Corin screeches "Did you 'ear that!" at the two pruning princes in the bathroom. Task instructions Mario retrieves them and reads them in a robot voice! 

BEN:So is it basically freeze tag in the garden with robots? (Mario: yes) So in simple terms?

MARIO: In simple terms, if you don't go out there, you wont get caught out.

11.16am, John says there is no way a remote control car will catch him. He joins the geek clan by making a mention to Gigantor. Nathan just screamed "Wow Corin!" and shocked Caoimhe (and me). Caoimhe shakes her head and tuts.

JOSIE: My teeth are looking so yellow since I came in here, I just want my electric toothbrush. (wants an hour with it)

Dave tells John that he has been refused a go at his wife (he wanted to exercise his conjugal rights. John's jumper has seriously gone – he's been rummaging through the wardrobe for it while Josie gets back in bed.


12.22pm, Josie asks Dave if God loves us all why can't people who love each other and are gay get married. Dave says he does love us but wont give an answer.


12.37pm, Nathan is promising us that he will shower naked in the garden on Friday - yet another reason to vote him out as far as I am concerned !!!! 
12.49pm, HM's called to sofas. One HM will take on Titan in a brutal battle of carpet cleaning, 60 secs to decide which HM. Caoimhe says she is not carpet cleaning, Josie volunteers. Josie to hatch to collect instructions read aloud to group - Titan will have a super sucker 4.0 and Josie will have a dustpan and brush! Robot and Josie have squares to clean...fastest wins.

1.05pm, Josie going to RoBoRoom, whinging that she is still eating. Titan is dressed in a frilly, pink pinnie!! Titan frightens her to death and he starts talking smack up in her face. 

LF DAY 29 2 (Diddiddidi video):

Titan powers away sucking up the larva from his carpet square with his gadgetry .. without which I would have seriously had no faith in his aptitude. Lovely Josie was their great, white hope and as much as their Private bucked up it was no use. 

BEN: I think there's someone in that robot. Mario is there? (Dave keeps cutting in to say no, there isn't but Ben will only take Mario's word for it) Mario? Is there someone in the robot? 

MARIO: No it's all hydraulics. 

John looks sweet as his attention is fixed to Josie onscreen cleaning up a storm; no doubt wanting his dear to take heart and be not of bad cheer because she is foiled by a surreptitious Titan. Josie gives it her all but she was fighting a losing battle sweeping maggots against a Robot with weaponry. Titan completes his hoovering in record time and drops the hoover handle to the floor. 

TITAN: (may his vocal chords be ripped out by wolves) Silence HM's. Sequence completed. 
Josie is dejected by this defeat by the supreme and invincible rival; she is told by Titan in Mr Bentley's voice 'HM's your attempts are pathetic. You cannot win. ' Big Brobot also really adds salt in the wound when announcing that machine is the winner and she is now a robot who must put on her outfit. Titan taunts her with demonic, demented laughter which she finds funny initially until she is blown a kiss and Robocop moves in closer, terrifying her.

Things are not made any less worrisome when Titan begins to bolt after her around the task room. BB tells her again to put on her outfit which she finds and is less than impressed with 'oh, is this my outfit?' Josie is amused when she shoves the Blue Peter made box and tin foil number over her head. This is where she has a fight with the new ensemble as she is hog-tied and clumsy trying to stick on the ory leg gear. 

Any poor unsuspecting person in her position would have been alarmed out of their apparel like her when Titan awakens again. She screams and backs into a corner as Titan continues to mock her guffawing gleefully. 

JOSIE: (full of hate and loathing and I gotta tell ya I love it) Funny.. funny. 

TITAN: Affirmative. 

Then he confuses her when she asks 'what?' by repeating the same word and when she parrots it back, he changes to 'negative. HM's must obey Big Brobot.' 

JOSIE: (with a crunch and a zing) Affirmative. 

They exchange a back and forth of 'affirmatives' with Titan getting in the last one like a rap artist 'af af af af af affirmative.' 
"Lol why didn't she think to put the legs on first." (kitcats)

John is already saying 'I am not wearing that!' LOL      

1.15pm, Josie and John are tucking into beans-on-toast and fried egg, while John chuckles his chin off at Jose in the robot costume.
I AM A ROBOT, DO YOU FANCY A .. (James 32 video):

I won't repeat my commentary from what was shown from the HL's but will continue from where it left off. This is just after they share a made out make out :D 

JOHN: (No one should be that beautiful in a BOX) Haaaa! I can't believe it's a cardboard box!! (SC as he pees himself a her in the costume) How.. how are you meant to go to sleep in that? 

Caoimhe comes to give Josie a cuddle too meanwhile John picks out a wedge between his buttocks. (say that in a Forrest Gump accent) 

JOSIE: (just being Josie) John just tried to snog a robot! (SC) I am a robot, it's not about snogging a robot! Go and get yourself a real woman!

It was quite cute to see John's face flush pink and I think he became more blushful not because he didn't want to kiss her.. but more to do with him wanting to do more than kiss her ;) And this was just not the scenario he had fantasised over for their first kiss.. you can't hurry love, you just have to wait. And wait they did another 19 days before their lips got to fondle each other lovingly ;) 


Okay, alright.. fine!! I can hear you all shouting 'DON'T GET GROSS!' at me so I will take the hint. :P My only beef with John and Josie having their first smooch under the covers was that we didn't get to see it :( And something as celestial as that should have been commemorated with an oil painting or at least one of Bonnie's pretty pics. :) Also I think John not indulging her in this kiss showed that he wanted more for them together, as opposed to a muck around or fling. This way it was more sincere and showed that he was working hard to prove he was real boyfriend material, not just a case of summer loving. 
E4 LIVE FEED: (at 1.20pm)

Viewers were angered that E4 live feed hadn't started a few minutes before so that they could have witnessed the pretend peck between JJJ!! As the live feed starts, John is scraping away what's left on his plate and Josie is finishing off her food. She wishes she'd been able to get a bit more into it (during the task) as BB had played some groovy music. 

JOHN: (this had not gone unnoticed) Some people were making a measly attempt to be funny and sing the song.

Josie asks John to pour her out some drink and as though she's a child, he gets her to tell him 'when' as he fills her glass.  

JOHN: Did you see me grab that bird's boobs? (Caoimhe had clocked it) Ehhh? I didn't think anyone was looking. 

I think he is on about the female mannequin (poor thing must have felt manhandled as she was just sitting there in the sunshine, minding her own business!) in the garden because Davina McCaw didn't have boobs and as far as I know, Josie was the only girl HM who had her bundles of joy  groped by the Boob man! (Though John wasn't the only person to get his hands on them - Mario and Shabby definitely had their fair share of squeezes and possibly others too)

Over to the lounge, where Dave is still piqued by his religious inquisition from Caoimhe earlier before. 'Why should you have to come here and give your opinion on everything?' He states that Steve has been really guarded in many ways in what he says and won't just open up. Ben is very sorry for the apple affair (where he hadn't offered any of it to Mario) and has never had a friend saying the things Mario says to him or be upset that he'd not offered them a piece of apple. 
DAVE: (his complaint is legitimate, Mario's is infantile) Only a fool shares everything in his heart. Why should I have to come in here and give an opinion on flippin' global warming, flippin' .. do you know what I mean? We shouldn't have to discuss.. 

Ben can't believe his friend has the funk over fruit and maintains that he had shared with Dave because he had previously expressed an interest. Dave describes the different mindsets that people have as foul; Ben refers to it as an intolerance (SC) Ben's view is that Martin Luther ruined the church but Dave believes he bought reformation; his very pretentious world views are cut away from. 

John tells Josie that she doesn't have to do anything but sit there (now that she is a robot in Big Brobot's psychotic good graces) her food was lovely but as she attempts to gulp back the drink John had poured her, it isn't so simple to swallow because her face is surrounded by cardboard. Caoimhe is in a pig out mood today; Josie thanks her mate for retrieving remnants of her lunch from her cheek. (SC) HOW FREAKIN' CUTE IS THAT? If ever you were wondering how much John loved Josie - remember this part!

JOSIE: (chuckles) Did you see what John James just did? He just picked up a baked bean from me! He just picked off a baked bean from my costume. Must have missed that one!! (Caoimhe giggles) 

JOHN: (copies) 'Must have missed that one!' What do you have to do, Jose? You have to say 'negative', 'affirmative' and 'I am a robot!' Are you allowed to take it off if you're in the spa (Josie nods after sucking her thumb) 

He's trying to be helpful and run through the rules with her that she doesn't have to wear her outfit in the pool, shower or bed so she plans to stay in the pool all day - that's what John would do too. 
JOSIE: (seems a little less jolly than usual) I've really got.. I am a robot, I've really got .. 

CAOIMHE: (so charmingly specific) To do a poo? 

She tells Caoimhe that it's really bad that she's breaking all the rules already (it's hard for her to remember the way she is meant to be speaking) but Caoimhe reassures that she doesn't think it really has anything to do with the task. Then she volunteers to go and roll Josie a fag; in the living room John mentions how 'that thing will come out like a bat out of hell! And it will just run straight into Corin!!' 

Ben asks Mario if he thinks BB will reimburse him for the clothes of his they have ruined (something has green gunge on and Ben's boiled it twice and can't get rid of the stain) ; Mario shakes his head somberly. John bets that the Chaserbot will be small enough to go under the clothes horse and that all the doors will be locked. 

BEN: There must be grounds for me saying 'you've got to get me a new polo shirt!' 

Mario doesn't expect he'll see a single dime back as he brought things into the house at his own risk. And that cause for reimbursement being received could be if one of the light fixtures fell and broke a HM's watch (not that they have those in the house) (long SC) At the carousel, Nathan compares Josie's costume to 'like being inside a really, really small burger van!' 

JOSIE: (ready for robot rehab) I am a robot, I've been forgetting to (SC) I'm a failure! It's the story of my life.

Josie looks stunning in her outfit even though she hated it, her head just poking through the top and showing off her beautiful eyes, is so cute , no wonder John loved her in the costume, lol” (mamajean) 
Ife sniggles that she's not and Corin would constantly forget but cautions Josie not to say yeah or no. Nathan is carrying a torch for Robot Josie and comes on to her 'is it wrong that I'm getting seriously attracted to you in that robot suit?' He wasn't the only one!! John frequently brought up Josie in the robo outfit throughout the series because he was totally turned on by it ;) 

She's put her own leggings on underneath and tells them how she nearly fell over putting them on (Corin asked if someone came to dress her as they hadn't been shown this bit onscreen) Josie gets off to a shaky start by using yes and no - instead of negative and affirmative. Ife suggests that she just shakes or nods her head, Josie spits out that she got stuck and Titan was ha ha ha-ing at her. 'He was frightening, I don't like that!' 

Corin asks if it's well uncomfortable and notifies her that she won't be able to lay in bed now today; Ife wonders if Josie can even bend down so she puts it to the test and the answer is NO. She spills half of her hot beverage in the process too (SC) she feels so rubbish at this! Corin comments that she was so funny when she was sweeping on the floor. 

True to his new cheeky chappy persona, he gets close and personal with Josie by dirty dancing with her (to add to his 'best' bits) she goes along with it but doesn't seem extremely at ease in being in such intimate proximity with a lecherous lout! She tries to switch it up with some mosh style moves (SC) He oooh's and fingers her buttons indelicately, cranks out a vexatious WOW; he'd like a robot rave when there's more of them. Josie reckons it would be wicked to wear it to a rave and wonders if BB will let her keep it. 

Nathan touts that she could have it for her eviction outfit; Josie mimics the crowd booing her and Seahorse comes up behind her to spank her box bum making whip noises. He titters entertained at his own sleazy actions 'I love it. I do actually love it!' (SC) then he and Corin leave her outside, free from sexual harassment! :P  Caoimhe comes out for a cigarette, Josie informs her that she thinks everyone would have found it scary. 
JOSIE: (not even someone miraculously talented at maggot sweeping could have won) How can you win with a dustpan and brush against anyone?!   

(Ad break) As Mario is in the Diary room, Ben bitches about Mario to Dave despite knowing he himself has many faults: doesn't like doing tasks, can be lazy, selfish and nicks food. But he finds it absurd that Mario turns on a friend everyone 5 minutes because he wasn't offered a piece of apple. (SC) He's irritated at the way Mario jumps and down with his love of robots and wanted this whole time but says Mario doesn't wind him up. 

When he next throws a party Dave will be there because Ben believes he just brings so much love and life to things! (SC) Ben's noticed that Dave puts on a different accent when he reads the Bible or something really tickles him and becomes a bit folky 'Ol' Mario are you sure you're not giving Bento a hard time because he's not returning your advances?' To which Mario had replied (Ben puts on a Yanky accent) 'we've already talked about that!' Mario makes Dave laugh. 

BEN: (quipster) I feel like I'm talking to Jackie Collins all the time.. literally. Tell me honestly, was I rude not to offer him some apple? Was it wrong? 

Dave doesn't think it was really but Ben did offer him some but not Mario. Steve is spinning around the hands of his mate the male model sat next to him on the sofa, unscrewing them. John seeks answers on whether they can remove the robot suits to go to the toilet or not - Corin confirms that they can but someone would have to help them. He laughs out loud at something he catches Josie doing out of the corner of his eye 'Look at the way she's.. I thought the costumes woulda been better than this! (SC) Like Robocop or something.. obviously not that good but..' 

John thought BB would have put them in silver skins with bits of metal on them. Corin is hopeful that they will all be different and customised for their characteristics but John would say they'd all be the same. (SC) She wants a red suit with silver and Steve acknowledges that he wouldn't be able to walk in one. Throughout the conversation, John has his back on Corin and Steve as he watches Josie through the glass doors. 
JOHN: (simpers) She's nearly destroyed it already! It'll get destroyed I think. 

Steve desires to let the old, big fella back in the house; Corin closes in beside him wanting to sit on the man's knee but worries she'll get done. She soon relents and wooo's at her new seat 'OMG it's well comfy!!' The camera angle zoomed ultra close on John's face gives him the appearance of being a Josie stalker as he can't take his gaze off her and his mouth hangs open. (SC) John finally pulls his eyes away, he checks something over on the laminate and then walks off without a word. 

Corin is asked if she has any lippy on and encouraged to give the 'robot' a kiss but she is afraid of being punished. 

CORIN: (he's on a promise) Maybe later. We only just met! Give it time. (SC)

John is formulating a course of attack as the instructions state that they are only permitted to stand or run on the grass area, so he is figuring out how to get away, without knowing the size of the Chaserbot. He was thinking he could just climb up on the pole thing but this would be ruled out under those guidelines. He is bending over while kneeling on the chair so his bum is displayed in all its scrumptious finery ;) 

The person to come up with the sneaky scheme to pull the mangle out and keep running around it is none other than the Baron. (SC) Nathan comes through and picks up on Corin cracking onto the chap she is sat upon; they're getting to know each other quite well but Corin refuses to kiss him as she never kiss someone when she first meets them. (SC) In the den of dragons, the hot topic is still Mario - Ben gees Dave up to do something when he's sat next to Mario, as he won't get in as much of a huff with Dave. 

Dave deciphers the problem as being that Mario wants to squirrel Ben away to himself,  but Ben thinks it is bizarre for Mario to go round calling himself a trophy. They also find it strange that Mario goes on about the gifts that are bought for him (with all their millions) when he says he never asks for/expects them. Deep down Ben doesn't think Mario's a very nice person but no one is all good or all bad. 'But people that go around bragging about all these rich people treating them to things.. I mean.. at the very least they're shallow and at the worst they're mercenary, right?' 
They go over the wild way the nominations have gone and that each week the person who won the task, replaced themselves with someone of the opposite gender. This resulted in every week thus far having either all men or all women facing the public vote; Dave thinks the mathematical probability of that happening must be quite slim. Dave quizzes who Ben would put £100 on to go in this eviction between John and Nathan. (Most of the house seemed glad to be rid of Nathan after he left) 

The irony is that Ben deems Nathan as marginally more likely to go but he'd actually now prefer he stayed although he had (up til now) been closer to John. He sees Nathan as probably a nicer person and more agreeable because they won't have fluctuations in mood  with him or strops, screams and behaving like a child all the time. Dave thinks exactly the same and starts to speak about how John is close to Jose but they are interrupted by Corin who asks if she can come in or not. 

Of course they welcome her in but Ben makes the darling close the door as this is a private club. Dave wants to be brought into the love duo between Ben and Corin so it becomes a love triangle because if there's something good happening, he wants to be a part of it. Dave calls out communicating to the camera men that he wants to get some cough medicine like he'd told him yesterday. Corin volunteers to give him a back rub only if he gets her something new from River Island! 

She quickly changes her request for a silver outfit as the robot wear isn't working well for her; her head is square enough so she doesn't want all that round her! Dave hollers for the camera guy to take him out for some sushi with all the money he's earning from the long hours. Ben snidely ridicules Mario over the apple to Corin in his girly voice and tells her that he can't cope. (ad break) 
During the ad break, Josie makes up a lyrically simplistic song about John which amuses him no end. The words are: 

His name's John James, he is so lame, he's got no game, his claim to fame is knowing Joooosie. (John laughs throughout and then she switches on her inner MC and raps a version of the lyrics up to 'got no game!' John questions if that's it so then she adds another line - 'goes back to Australia looking like a failure!') 

SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE'S TRYING TO ESCAPE FROM PRISON (James 32 video):

Steve and John are asking Josie questions in order to catch her out as she is still forgetting to start her sentence with 'I am a robot.' They ask: Where do you come from? (she replies Bristol so Steve scolds 'no.. I am a robot I come from Bristol.' 

JOHN: Hey Jose! 

JOSIE: (copying back) Hey John.

JOHN: (even with his revisions of her utterances she has a fat chance of not messing up) 'I am a robot, hey John!' (SC) Jose, Jose.. 

JOSIE: (being Australian) John, John (he tuts) I'm a robot, I'm a robot, John. (the way Titan stammered the word) Jjjjjjjjohn John John John John! 

John chuckles that she looks like she's trying to escape from prison; Josie asks if anyone has a spare cushion and is answered that Caoimhe does. He laughs at her (SC) Josie reviews that it's not exactly the best look in the world but whoever made it has done a good job. (SC) 
Back from the ads, John guides Josie along to use words other than yes or no such as 'okay' and 'alright' so that she doesn't break the rules. (SC) She sucks her thumb at the sofa but nods her head, saying okay. Josie asks once more if there is a little cushion out there (not starting off with - I am a robot) John tells her to take Caoimhe's but she says it's alright and tries to reach for one herself. 

JOHN: (cares for her so much) Do you want one? (on his feet to get his girl a much needed neck aid) 

The incarceration of her suit is hurting her neck really badly; John jokes that she is sending him out into the wilderness (as he hops off out into the garden which is Chaserbot territory, to locate a cushion for Josie.) (SC) The man of the moment comes back with one for her and being the chivalrous fella he is tucks it down the back of her head so that she will be more comfortable. Josie aww's thanking John as it is lovely. 

He squishes her sides and Big Brobot bellows a request for Robot Josie to ensure that the fire exit in the garden is cleared from any debris, for Health and Safety reasons. Why couldn't they have asked her when she was out in the garden, knowing it was a hassle for her to get up when she is laying down horizontally?? (SC) Josie musters all her might to move back up to a sitting position in order to carry out the command; John is jocose that everyone is running back indoors! 

Josie rolls her way onto the floor from the couch then sits back so that she can stand up; Corin discovers that it is doing her head in! John takes in that BB had wanted to release the Bot beast when he was outside but couldn't as objects were blocking its path. She trips slightly on her way out and wonders aloud what she has to do; John informs her that she is to move the clothes line and all the cushions out of the way. 
Robot Jose carries out her duties cheerlessly and exerts herself when unable to bend all the way down to scoop up a cup. Mario refers to himself as Ben's knight in rusty armour, they say hello to their darling as she comes into the kitchen. 

JOSIE: (didn't know fate was waiting) I keep thinking I'm gonna meet my knight in shining armour but all I meet is blokes wrapped in tin foil. (SC) 

For a little time, Josie thought John was that knight in shining armour - now she probably sees him as another twat in tin foil.. and is fine with the whole hating him thing.. I feel like she is now being boy in the plastic bubble careful with her heart and as such stays/keeps going back to Luke knowing that he is safe and won't ever be able to hurt her heart (because he doesn't HAVE it the way John did, in my opinion) .. I'm not sure she wants to spend eternity with him like she wanted to with Peanut head or she wouldn't have called off the engagement. 

Mario's method to perk Josie up is to grab her 'dials' and let her know she'll be fine as it's only for another 3 days. He thinks the hardest thing is remembering to say 'I am a robot' etc and that is certainly something Josie has had considerable difficulty with. Corin takes immense pleasure filling Nathan in about Mario and Ben's latest bust up; the fried garlicky bread he's made smells fit! 

Mole comes back saying for them both to remember that Ben volunteered to do the next task and they have to hold him to that. Corin has faith in Ben that he will; Mario thinks it'll be funniest to see him in a robot costume (SC) Josie has returned to resting on the sofa while John is staring out at the garden on intruder watch but he soon gets bored and turns his attentions back round to Josie. 
JOSIE: (does she need a hug?) I'd love to pop down the shops.. starting to miss things now.

Even silly little things like talking to her friends as she speaks to every single one at least 2 or 3 times a day. 'Like my friend Luke we're on the phone to each other about an hour, hour and a half every day. And my friend Jeanette we're on the phone for an hour and a half - so that's 3 hours.. so that's why I haven't got time to go to the gym and all that, cos I'm too busy chatting!' (SC) All her friends were worried she'd be chucked out in the week for saying something bad. (SC and ad break) 

This is another theory that I do not believe, that the Luke to which Josie is referring to here is Luke the plumber Sanwo that she is now in a relationship with. 

Ben goes to the kitchen to munch on some croutons (made by Nathan) and Dave comes to ask when the food will be ready; Nathan will punch him straight in the belly if he asks again! He labels Ben a thief (which Ben would rather be) and Dave a pig! (SC) Corin proposes that the 3 lads go in the garden (for robo tag) while she as the lady, watches from the window; Ben thinks it will play on her conscience if she doesn't come out to save the war hero. She urges Ben to squeeze her arm muscle really hard, using his thumb at the back as he won't hurt her. 'Dead 'ard! 'Arder! Go on!' Ben's a bad boy as he winds her up, making it into a sexual innuendo 'is that hard enough?' and leaving her with a slap on the arse. 

Corin loves Ben for doing this (going out to play with the Chaser) as no one would have thought he'd have done it! Out in the garden, John suspects the Bot is incoming as he can hear it. 
DAVE: (daffy) Come on Yellow belly, out you come!   

Sure enough the siren blares warning them of the attack and out comes the bot as shown on the HL's show. John is straight behind the mangle and demanding people get out the way, heeheeheeing as he does a little run around his barricade. Then he runs right out onto the lawn, playing with fire but is not caught as Corin is taken down! John's not sure if jumping over is allowed because he'd read that they can only stand or run; Corin hadn't thought when she leapt over the stones and had a mouthful of toast (SC)

John is lucky that he pulled the mangle out as Steve gleefully told him, as just as he did it came out. Steve and Mario call out for BB to do it all over again (not giving them a chance to catch their breath) and Mario makes out the door locked so he couldn't go out. (SC) Caoimhe doubts it will come out again for a while; Steve says whoever was controlling the robocar was very good as they are hard to steer but it was reversing and everything.

Dave declares that the mangle's the way forward. Corin is the first to admit she couldn't live without a mirror; Ben believes they are all vain in different ways. (SC) Corin knows she shouldn't have jumped over the rock things but just wanted to get away and says that being near the doors is the worst place as it'll get ya. John enounces that Ben is also out as he went off the grassy area (Ben wasn't aware he couldn't do this) which the rules state was not allowed. 

John tucks his mic into his hoody as Dave had hold of it when they were dancing around the mangle; he'd been worried about it. Dave doesn't reckon it will come out very often, guessing about once every hour but tells Caoimhe that it is fast. Because it can drive both ways John feels this is what will make it hard and that's why they had to remove obstacles from the garden - does this include the mangle? John had brought out the mangle just in the nick of time (SC) Caoimhe never knew the word mangle before coming in the house. 
The hardest bit is remembering not to jump onto the rocks as you would do that naturally; John thinks BB will use any excuse they can so that as many people as possible are not in the final task. (ad break) John reckons they'll get Benny because he went off the grassed area; he's tipping BB are getting his and Corin's suits ready now. (SC) He and Dave have a game of catch; in the kitchen Corin thinks BB should have to be a bit flexible with the rules. 

Mario is still on his mission to be as miserable as possible, he perpends that Ben may be penalised because he ran over near the kitchen doors and hid. They head for the lounge and Mario asks how his 'sweet little Josie-tron' is. 

JOSIE: (this outfit has been a real kick in her pants) I am a robot. How are you my lovely Mario? 

He didn't think she would be the first robot (neither did she) and that it would be Ben. Her nostrils prick up 'is that chocolate I can smell?' but it is the soup coming along; Josie doesn't seem to want any as she'd already eaten beans on toast with John. Mario thought there was no way she could beat a Dyson when they watched her do her task on the telly. He clasps her hand and strokes it as she endues that it was dead moths and wood chips as well as maggots, she had to sweep up. (SC) Mario had liked her strategy of brushing it all into the centre and then scooping it up. (SC)

Something is Josie's favourite song and she doesn't know why she didn't put it on her application - Daft Punk had done a remix of it and it is amazing! When John comes in, Mario sends word that John's robo-wife is suffering. 

JOHN: (in soft tones) Yeah, I know.. where's Benny? Him in the robot outfit.. 
JOSIE: (proving how much he loved her) My Australian husband's been trying to look after me. He's given me a cushion and all that.. (John puts his hand inside her boxed face to caress her face with a sweet 'yeah') Got his hoody on (SC)

"I love how John's always watching and looking after Josie." (RedLadyBug91) 

It's fascinating to me that John went into the house as an individual and grew to care about someone there, more than himself. Josie was always his main concern even when he didn't yet know he was in love with her. She was the star of his heart and nothing would have made me happier if things had worked between them and they'd become a real life husband and wife. 

Why can't they just make nice? People make mistakes, even the people that we love(d) and John and Josie more than some, know how short life can be.. They had a beautiful thing that got broken along the way and if they only allowed themselves to remember that beauty.. I'm sure they'd want that fun, quirky friendship back and for peace to reign. 

She laughs about it being so funny that Ben wasn't caught because he went up on the stoned area. 

JOHN: (this drollery deserved her undivided attention) Ah you shoulda seen him, Jose prancin' away from the.. oh it was so funny! He was like this Jose.. Jose he was like this! 

He bends over backwards trying to make her laugh as he takes the p*ss out of Ben's mincing robo car evasion technique, flailing around in front of her. It soon has her convulsed with chuckles; he's got that down as he enlivens her 'exactly how you would imagine him is exactly what he did!' (SC) 
He knows it will be funny as Ben will refuse to say I am a robot and impersonates him getting huffy and tsk-ing whenever corrected 'alright.. alright I am a robot! Alright!!' 

Josie imagines having robot sex and Mario calculates that it would not be lousey as there'd be a lot of sockets to stick things in! ;) (SC) He gets up to wind Benny up that when he's a robot not to forget to say the set phrases. Josie deduces that Mario and Ben aren't as close as they used to be, she asks why he reckons that is and if it hurts. It doesn't and Mario had actually realised this yesterday - it's partially that he and Ife are really close now and partially because someone he had liked on the outside shared the good characteristics of Ben. 

Mario had transferred these feelings onto Ben which is why he thinks he had such an intense besottment for Ben, but when he realised they're not the same person it cooled off. Then he got to know Ben for him he really is and not for mimicing his love interest from the outside world. Could this be what Josie did with Luke? Transferred her feelings for love straight over to Luke as she was lonely and sought companionship? 

Josie wonders if they'll do that romantic dinner for him but now Mario wouldn't go on it unless it was just for dinner. Caoimhe really wants a treat day; Josie will pick her if she goes before Caoimhe and thinks John would choose her too. Mario jokes that she never knows, Nathan may pick her if he leaves on Friday!!

JOSIE: (the robo suit is making her want to chew her own head off) I'm always laughing on the outside world.. I'm not laughing in here anymore! (Caoimhe too) I'm always wetting myself. 
Mario doesn't think that's anything to do with laughing but a medical problem that she needs to seek help for, now she's in her metallic shell. Josie checks with Nath if the soup has pork in it - it does so it's a good job she already ate beans on toast. Corin is called to the robo room by Big Brobot to collect her costume but she shouts out 'NO!' not wanting to go. 

Ben is cuddled up to John in bed telling John that he would have said 'come on Mars, what planet are you on?' John wasn't there when Mario said that; as much as he would have liked to see Ben become robot it seems he got out of it. Ben believes he did very well, jumping to escape and that John should be proud of him. 

Corin dresses herself but would have preferred a silver catsuit, though on seeing it on in the mirror she LUUUUUUVS it (in a complete turnaround to our regular programming) and the eyes. She hadn't noticed this on Josie's BECAUSE Josie's wasn't customised like Corin's. Her voice grates straight through me as she comes out of the task room with such an obstreperous outcry 'how funny's this? It's got boots and everything and eyes!' I wish she'd cork it, calm down and chomp on a crouton. She stridently shows it off to Josie who construes it as nicer than hers with the long, pink eyelashes! (End of E4 live feed)

2.33pm, some of the housemates are sitting round the dinner table eating soup with croutons. Dave declares that Londoners love croutons! Corin feels like a Turkey dressed in foil. "I am a robot - what babe?" Ben just sucked Corin's robo boobs, the silver funnels.

2.45pm, Josie is laid in bed with her costume on, under the duvet while the others eat lunch. John leaves the kitchen to find her.  
IS THIS WHAT THEY CALL ROBOT LOVE? (James 32 video):

Josie's robot eyes are peeking out over the bedsheets and she is laying down alone in the bed furthest away from the door (the one Shabby and Caoimhe shared) John ambles in casually and tracks her down immediately, thanks to the robo wear as it sticks out like a sore thumb (though he would have hunted her down to the ends of the Earth)! There's nothing like some good loving from John James to buoy up a blue (Josie) bot. 

JOHN: (making light of her melancholy) Don't think I couldn't find you in that suit!!

He throws himself down onto the bed to lie next to her, lifting the covers so that he can snuggle in closer to his new toy! John awwwww's as he wraps his arm around her, sensing that she is suffering in silence 'aw, my little Jose!' He just wanted her sadness to be gone and would have gone to unheard of lengths to accomplish this. 

JOSIE: (she plays coy as he makes her heart skip a beat) Is this what they call Robot love?  

He agrees that it is (HE SOOOOOOO HAD A KINKY SIDE TO HIM!) and has a heehee when he looks down her silver sleeve, he blows his own exhalation down it. Josie thanks John James for loving her even though she's a robot; they are so cute together!  

JOHN: (would do anything for his lovey dovey) That's alright. That's what I do for my good friends. 

JOSIE: I'd love you even if you didn't look like David Beckham. 

JOHN: (Pleased) Would ya? 

JOSIE: Of course I would! 
He clues Josie in that 'Corin's luuuuuvin' it!' Josie says she isn't and calls her a lying cow!  'How can she love this? Is she buzzin'?' (long SC) Corin only liked being in her costume because it was something really snazzy in comparison to Josie's. 

"John just can't keep away from his lady, I think he fancied her more in this outfit than any of the others, lol." (mamajean)

How is it that John could go from being so attentive, so devoted to her and so willing to fetch her the moon from the sky, if that was what Josie had her heart set on.. to (what I can only gauge from his tweets) this bitter, brutal boy who seems to get off on these pre-meditated provocations? I'm searching for someone to shed some much needed perspective on this because I know he's not a hateful human being.. though he may believe that Josie is now (neither do I believe she has become that) .. 

Maybe he's not as cut up about this all still as I suspect he may be.. but I haven't seen a single recent photo of him (that's been put out) of him looking HAPPY.. It is possible that he's dancing on the inside, content as can be in Australia and living it up.. I cut these kids (John and Josie) all kinds of slack but some of the things they do and say just are not cool at all. From his recent twitter activity, I can only assume one of 3 things: 1 - He hates her and everything she stands for 2 - He is obsessive about her (indicated by using twitter primarily to be about Josie or to take shots at her and how tweets between him and Jonno were almost word for word direct quotes from Luke tweets..) and has not been able to move on - whether that is because he still loves her or just because he didn't get closure I don't know. 3 - He wants Josie's attention, for her to react or just to generally wind her up. 

Now he's gone as far as to imply that their entire relationship was fake - yet EVERYTHING that has happened during it and since tells me otherwise. He took every opportunity to deny that it wasn't real and to show that he did love her. He may be trying to delete their time together and all that it meant to him.. for his own sanity BUT he'll never forget it and neither will we.
WHO AM I GONNA HAVE A SNUGGLE WITH NOW? (James 32 video):

JJJ are discussing the possibility of him being evicted on Friday, which is a sore subject. They both seemed to have a gnawing feeling in their gut that he was a goner; as such Josie needs to develop a defence mechanism to cope with a John-shaped size hole in the house. (In my mind, there's no way she would have bounced back so quickly had John been evicted that week instead of Nathan) She reverts to her tried and tested formula for muddling through misery - HUMOUR. 

JOSIE: (needs his love and a hug) Apart from Mario, who am I gonna have a snuggle with then? (he giggles) So self absorbed, aren't I? 

JOHN: (feeling that he'd just be a ship in the night) Yeah.. nah! They'll send in newies next week anyway. (She tells him not to be stupid) They will. (picks his nose a bit) 

JOSIE: If you do go, at least I won't have to worry about you running off with some new Sheila in here!

John laughs and then bites his nails; the sound is cut when Ife asks if anyone has seen what it says on the beds. Josie reckons John will get asked to do so much stuff if he goes. 

JOHN: (scrunches up his nose with a frown) Huh? Like what? 

JOSIE: Well like what you've done before and things like that. (probably referring to his past modelling work) 

JOHN: Nah. 
Before BB, Josie thought she'd never be happy again in a relationship, then along came an Aussie to change her life. Though I think in the back of her mind, Josie always worried that John would one day leave her for someone prettier and thinner - hence her constant jokes about him running away with other Sheila's. He'd have never done any such thing because he found her stunning; she gave Chills - CHILLS so he'd not even have looked until they'd broken up completely and he'd bolted away from Josie.

If Josie continued to make these comments about John running off with another woman while they were together, I can imagine John getting mighty sick of her saying that. He knew that he was committed to her and had every intention of staying faithful to her alone.. so it must have been difficult for John to deal with her distrust.. (which came about because of the way she had been treated by previous partners). Being apart was once too painful for them to even think about but now it has been over 2 years since last they saw each other :( 
JOHN'S OUT OF ORDER BECAUSE HE'S COMPLETELY LEADING JOSIE ON (James 32 video):

Josie clarifies that to John that whoever they had been speaking about between clips, (Caoimhe and Shabby) were just friends - he really did not know. She then compares this to someone getting funny, and going into the Diary room saying 'oh yeah, John's out of order cos he's completely leading Josie on.. or the other way round.' John thinks that there relationship is a little bit different but Josie seems concerned that theirs could be perceived the same way. In my eyes, no way was there any comparison with what John and Josie had to what Shabby and Caoimhe did.. that would be like comparing a hippo with a hamburger. 

JOSIE: (there was a palpable vibe as this question was asked) Why is it? .. Oh yeah, none of us fancy each other.

JOHN: (the little spark goes out of his eyes with her response) No, not just that.. just the fact that we're equal like, together.. like we play fight and that like.. and if you had made it obvious to me, that you were in love with me or something like that.. I would either keep going with it or I'd let you know how it is. But I believe from my perspective, Caoimhe had made it quite clear that she loved her boyfriend - so I don't see what the problem is. 

He felt that their feelings were totally mutual and neither liked one more than the other, whereas with Caoimhe and Shabby - it was h'obvious that Shabby felt much more for Caoimhe, who only had platonic love for Shabby.. yet continued to be grabby and very sexual with her. And thus that pasty-faced pilchard DID lead Shabby on because Shabs became very confused, even believing for some time that Caoimhe fancied her back. 
Although John, didn't see it the way I (and most viewers) did because he was hearing Caoimhe's protestations and dialogues of loving her lad.. however he hadn't seen firsthand how Caoimhe would nibble up Shabby's neck, caress her and touch her boobs!! Not the right way to interact with someone you say you're not interested in romantically because you're already with the love of your life .. but thinking it was acceptable because she was a flirty character!! 

John played his cards close to his chest with his feelings for Josie until she fully opened up to him about hers.. he always took her lead, so that he wasn't moving things along too fast for her. He said that he'd liked her from the start.. but he had to place those feelings on the back burner until Josie caught up with him .. so he became her best friend and gradually with all their spending time together, Josie fell for him more and more. I think it is better that they allowed everything to happen naturally and developed a strong friendship rather than just acting immediately on instant attraction. This enabled them to get to know one another and care deeply about each other - in addition to the chemistry bubbling away between them. 

Shabby never told Caoimhe that she was in love with her, according to Josie. 

JOSIE: (unflinchingly honest) Like I fancy you sometimes but.. 
JOHN: (happily fishing for answers) Do you really? 

JOSIE: Yeah, of course I do! In a football kit!! (SC) 

John gets an idiot smile all over his face; some days when John's being really nice Josie thinks 'ooh he's alright!' John duplicates this declaration buoyantly but he guesses the same could be said about Benjy and Mars' situation to a certain point and that it all depends on how it's perceived on the outside. (SC as Josie starts a sentence on what she reckons something is gonna look like) John downplays whatever she has told him but Josie is adamant that it will. 

He doubts that people will get blamed for anything 'I just think like.. people like people in here and.. I don't think Caoimhe's done anything wrong, to be honest BUT..' Josie refers to saying something in the Diary room that looks off key (longer SC as he either presses her for information or she willingly provides him with details about what she'd said in so many words, another SC) 

JOSIE: A kiss and cuddle which is right up my street, really! (he repeats it being right up her street through a laugh) So when you.. when people see all that, I think they might get it a bit twisted.
   
"I love how he says if Josie was to tell him she was in love with him or someting, he would either keep going with it or tell her how it is. Just shows that when she did tell him she had feelings, he kept things the same because he also felt the same :)" (princesssparkle)
