Day 19 HL's

9.20am, Today Steve celebrates his birthday. All of the HM's are in the bedroom. The lights are still off and the room is dark, Josie calls over to the birthday boy. 

JOSIE: How old are you today then, Steve? 

STEVE: Forty one. 

JOSIE: Ooooooh!

JOHN: Go on Stevo!! Come on England! Come on England!

The lights switch on and their themed morning wake alarm is Sandie Shaw's 'puppet on a string!' Dave and Corin instantly start to bob up and down in time with the beat. The bedroom doors are unlocked for the HM's to go and meet their furry twinnies, already seated on the sofas. John points out his and begins to dance gleefully with his new-found friend :)

SUNSHINE: Josie, do you have a big nose like me on yours?  

Nathan notices that Shabby's alter-ego looks like Keith Richards. HM's are gathered at the sofas. 
 

JOHN: (To Dave) Have you seen Sunshine's muppet with all its sparkly sh*t all over it?

SUNSHINE: (Screechily) Are you talking about me? Your just jealous of my hat!

JOHN: Have you ever heard of a vegan who doesn't eat vegetables? 

SUNSHINE: (Through gritted teeth) JOHN, BE QUIET!! 

Zig and Zag appear on the plasma to introduce the task. They ask HM's not to swear as they are coming to them live from the prop room. The HM's all YAYYYYY as Z & Z tell them to say hello to puppet Govan. 

They are instructed that they MUST talk through their puppets until further notice 'at all times, regardless of what is going on!'  If they are successful in their task they could win a birthday party for Steve. One rule: No swapping puppets! Josie waves goodbye to Gov. 

10.19am, some of the HM's are in the bedroom. As written on the previous blog, JJJ puppets spend some sexy smoochy time together in bed. 

JOHN: What's going on down there? Your boobs are looking bigger today, Josie!! (I love that he makes no secret of the fact that he checks out her bad boys on a regular basis!) 

JOSIE: Thanks, John. 

JOHN: (Beautifully bashful) That's alright.. 'stop ittttt! Stop it!' 

JOSIE: Stop it.. I mean Becks! (John giggles)

Nathan has come to the Diary room. The puppeteer kneels on the floor so that we are only shown their puppet pal on the Diary room chair. BB asks how puppet Nathan is today. 

NATHAN: The house is absolutely full of beans! We're all jumping for joy, living the dream. It's fantastic!

Nathan is geared for the England game and excited to enjoy a few lagers, then check out 'the ladies sunbathing and what not!'  After BB questions how big of a football fan Nathan is, he replies that it is massive for him and the country (as it's the only time we all unite as one) He hopes that they will repeat yesterday and beat the Germans. BB then asks how Steve is enjoying his birthday so far. 

Nathan hasn't seen the big fella smile this much in ages! 'It's good to do something nice for him! So we've gotta make sure he has the best day he can today.. get plenty of booze in the big, old dog!' What Steve says goes today, as it's all about Big Steve.

10.36am, Shabby and Corin are in the bathroom. Corin is lovin' her puppet and just being a bit of a berk!! #standard

In the bedroom, John and Dave tease Sunshine mercilessly. 

JOHN: What's Sunshine doing over there, wizard? Looks like she's trying to add more sparkly sh*t to her .. to her muppet! 

DAVE: You can stick a few gallons on that nose for starters! She'll probably need to put some scaffolding around it to get up there! (John near wets himself)

Mario assuages a subdued Sunshine that her nose is okay as it makes her, her! 

JOHN: Look at her snozzer!! It's bigger than the mole's! (Laughs)

MARIO: Don't listen to them! They're just jealous because you're now a tourist attraction, because your nose can be seen from outer space! 

John guffaws unkindly and Josie tries to stifle a smirk and rolls her eyes at their remarks. Sunshine knows that the nose is slightly out of proportion. 

JOHN: I think they've done it perfect!! 

SUNSHINE: Regardless, this is still the best present I've ever had in my life!

JOHN: I think they've got the measurements down pat! I can't believe they actually found that same crappy dress she wears everyday! I can't believe they found a replica of it! 

DAVE: They scoured the second-hand shops of London! But they managed to get hold of one!

SUNSHINE: I got it from the market actually.

JOHN: They had to scrape together a little extra material for that nose! Notice how they've given her a bigger mouth than everyone else!! 

SUNSHINE: It's the same size actually ..in fact yours is bigger! 

JOHN: I don't think so.. I love how they gave her such a big nose! That is so funny!!  

11.59am, some of the HM's are in the bathroom. The puppet posse put Mario through the wringer on whether or not he is a real HM. Puppet John's puppeteer cross-examines 'swear on our friendship?' which Mario does. 

JOHN: Swear on my life? (Mario swears) Something going on here mole!

Mario refutes this claim. Outside Nathan's randy right hand (well up his right hand.. maybe left) man WOWEEEEEE's at pretty puppet Josie. 

JOSIE: Did you just look up my skirt? Cos you know what the word for that is, don't you? PERVVVVVV-ERT!!!!

NATHAN: He's a horny little puppet! 

Steve's dirty b*gger of a puppet wants to get his 'fluffy hands on Corin's false boobies!' Corin brings her puppet over to him so that saucy Steve can grope her puppet's puppies ;) while she sings Happy Birthday in a grating and disharmonic Marily Monroe style. 

12.16pm, Sunshine has come to the Diary room. Sunshine's puppet 'treats' BB to a tuneless, raucous rendition of Lady Gaga's 'Poker face.' Some of the HM's are in the garden. 

John James and Mario are at the sofas. Mario admits that he would have sex in the house but he wouldn't masturbate as it would look sad. 

JOHN: Well sex is easy, isn't it? Because you can sorta .. you can do it, it'd be sh*t! 

MARIO: It'd be over really quick!

JOHN: And you wouldn't be able to get riiiiight into it.. unless.. unless both people wanted to. Is it really worth having sex like to .. Unless you're full gonna bang em? 

MARIO: SlaaAam em!! 

JOHN: Unless you're full gonna slam em, yeah!

MARIO: And slam 'em hard!  

How soon those who consistently revile Josie for discussing her sex life, in terms they consider crude, forget that John could actually be equally as graphic with regards to sex. Neither he or Josie have ever talked about their sex life in such explicit detail in a public forum.. and no, I don't think that is because they didn't have any/much.. or because it wasn't good. I believe it is because that is something that they do keep private between them and have respected that even post break-up. They joked around about it in interviews and were open about having slept together and that they rated each other as full marks etc.. but NEVER divulged all the vital stats and gory minutia (although some would have looooved that!) Surely this signifies that this aspect of their relationship was something they considered special and sacred?

Sunshine confessing her desires for John in the Diary room. 

SUNSHINE: Big Brother, my human clone thinks John James is the most attractive male in the house.. but as a puppet Sunshine I don't think John James is as atractive.. I think he's lovely and when he's not moaning, he's really nice to talk to .. and he's really sweet and kind .. and  he looks a little bit like David Beckham ..but then he opens his mouth and he's like 'na na na rar rar rar rar rar RAR! You're a vegan ..a VEGAN and you don't like vegetables!! I can never go on a date with you .. I'd be like sitting there and I wouldn't be able to eat my food.. cos I'd be like sitting there guilty cos you're  eating like a plate of vegetables.. blah, blah, blah!' 

1.40pm, some of the HM's are in the garden. Corin is sprawled out on the grass sunbathing. 

BEN: Your boobs are looking good, Corin! (she smiles and thanks him)

Josie extends an invitation to Ben to join her in the pool but he declines. Sunshine, John James and Dave are in the bedroom. Sunshine really likes living with boys because it is easier; she doesn't mind cleaning up their mess if it means no arguing. Dave tells Sunshine she should be doing a lot more washing up in the house then, as he has yet to see her do any!

Sunshine argues that she's always collecting cups and washing. Dave must have missed that day! :P

JOHN: Yeah, I must have missed that.. that once she did! She thinks getting the crisps in her drawer is cleaning. 

Sunshine reveals how she was so nice about John in the Diary room and told them he was the most attractive male in the house. 

JOHN: Well.. thank you. 

DAVE: You've been sucked in you have, Sunshine! You've got a crush on an Australian! What's the matter with you? What's wrong with us British men? What's wrong with Seahorse? 

Sunshine simpers that she likes Australians and the last guy she dated had an Australian accent.  

JOHN: I'm pretty good to you considering you moan a lot and whinge! Seem to still get along with you somehow ..don't know how that's working. 

NATHAN: You fancy her, that's why! 

JOHN: Nah. 

Sunshine explains that it is mostly food for her; John has noticed that. She guarantees that in the outside world that is 100% never an issue. She doesn't necessarily think she has moaned but has been more upset.

JOHN: Then why moan? You threatened to leave last night because you didn't get your vegan butter! 

Sunshine had just had enough. 

DAVE: You were on that Diary room door like a tramp on a sandwich!

JOHN: And you said.. and you said.. and you said, 'I'm close to leaving!' 

Sunshine had just wanted to be treated the same as everyone else.

JOHN: You're treated better .. you're treated better than us! 

SUNSHINE: I know I am! 

Dave perceives that it would be seen as favoritism and special dietary requirements, though to her it is normal living.

JOHN: Especially labelling the crisps Sunshine! 

NATHAN: Lay her off for a bit, guys.

JOHN: You don't take it to heart though, do you Sunshine? Do you Sunshine?! 

Dave and John walk over to her bed as she hides under the covers; they ask if she's alright.

JOHN: We love you really don't worry about it, Sunshine. We're only winding you up! (Hug her) Don't worry about it. 

1.52pm, some of the HM's are in the bedroom. Out in the garden, Ben wonders if July will be as sunny as this. 

JOSIE: What are we in now? (Ben answers June) STILL? (Ben elaborates that it is the 27th, Steve's birthday) I can't.. I thought, I thought we were nearly in August!

 

Ben brown-noses his darling, that people such as her will be in there for the long haul and have a lot longer to go. 

JOSIE: I can't see it Ben, I just cannot see it! .. (Ben asks what?) Me being in here for the long haul.

Ben continues to kiss her kaboose 'why wouldn't you? You irritate absolutely no one!'  As previously blogged, Ben reminds her that John is the only person she's rowed with and they sorted that out. (see previous blog so I don't have to repeat this whole conversation about John being a wonderful but neurotic person)

BEN: Fundamentally he's a really decent guy, he's fun.. also I think genuinely you're the person he has most time for. I think he looks up to you. 

JOSIE: ME?? 

BEN: Yeah! He is ultimately ..and I don't mean this in a bad way, quite a lonely person so he gravitates to people he thinks are the popular ones. 

JOSIE: I don't know there's something quite special about hm.. I don't know what it is. I can't put me finger on it really! (She didn't just get her finger on him.. but her hands ALL over John!!!!)

BEN: No, he's.. I don't think you need to put your finger on it. You like him, that's all that matters.

It really is testament to just how special, John and Josie are - that they still have such strong supporters after going into the house over 2 years ago :)

2.03pm, some of the HM's are in the garden. Shabby realises she's smoking a lot more in the house than she would at home.  Ben warns her to be careful so she won't lose her good skin. Shabby has observed that some aspects of her health have also improved in there - such as not drinking as much and her diet has been better (as she can't cook meals because she doesn't have a kitchen) Normally, she pulls food out of bins and targets certain supermarkets in the area. 

Steve, Nathan and Sunshine are in the bedroom. It sounds like Sunshine is crying softly while hiding beneath her bedsheets. John approaches Mario in the garden and lets him know that Sunshine's upset 'cos of the nose!' 

JOSIE: Just say sorry to her then, give her a big cuddle. That'll cheer her up.. 

JOHN: Oh yeah, she's not happy.. (Josie again suggests he give her a cuddle) I already have but she's not happy.. we .. we're just mucking around but.. 

JOSIE: Shall I go and get your trunks, Becks? (wanting him to go in the pool with her)

JOHN: And then we pushed the vegan matter a little bit further.. 

JOSIE: (pulls him up) I thought in the bedroom you was going a bit far.. yeah, the vegan.. but her nose?? 

JOHN: I seriously don't think.. 

JOSIE: She said she had a massive nose herself!

JOHN: If  I thought that, I wouldn't have taken the p*ss!

JOSIE: I know that. 

JOHN: But her muppet does have a big nose, I'm not gonna deny that..(Josie laughs) it keeps poking my eye out every time I go near it. But I seriously don't think she has! (To Mario) I thought I'd tell you, cos you're her best friend. 

Mario gets up to have a chat with her and sort her out in the bedroom. 

JOSIE: Becks, can you get my flip flops? 

JOHN: What do they look like? 

Mario has to peel back all Sunshine's bed layers like an onion. He tries to get her to talk to him but she keeps pulling the covers back on top of her. She mumbles 'nothing' when Mario asks her what's wrong, his puppet kisses her face. 

Sunshine refuses to go anywhere in the house to talk with Mario until he suggests the wardrobe. They immediately get out of bed to sit in there together after closing the doors.  Mario is relentless in trying to determine what the matter is with Misery mittens! But she pretends she just wanted t sit in the wardrobe, before finally admitting what is really bothering her. 

Sunshine is saddened that some make out she goes into the Diary room demanding crisps and bread. Generally all she asks for is soya milk, tofu and vegan butter. 

MARIO: Why do you let it bother you? 

She thinks them joking about what she orders at McDonalds and how little vegetables she eats to be funny. But gets upset that they say she alwaus  moans, expects lots and is ungrateful. Mario admonishes that they are only joking with her but Sunshine is adamant that he wasn't. She is aware she's moaning to Mario, but doesn't want to be known as 'the whinging moaning person!'

Ife opens the wardrobe door and was paranoid that there were other people in the house. 

2.49pm, some of the HM's are in the kitchen. Dave pledges to never mention Sunshine's dietary requirements one more time in the house. Corin is in the Diary room. She absolutely LOVES the doll and how bright orange it is. She lists everything else she loves about her puppet - the entire pink ensemble, the flip flops, the nails, the eyebrows and eyelashes. She would have spoken more but her head is BANGING because she'd been sat in the sun. 

John James and Josie are in the pool. 

JOHN: Do you reckon Nathan's sh*tty with me? 

JOSIE: What for? 

JOHN: Cos I'm hanging round with you. 

JOSIE: No, why would he be like that for? 

JOHN: Cos I think he likes ya, eh? 

JOSIE: I don't think he does, don't be stupid!

JOHN: I'm not f**king taking the p*ss! I'm being serious like.. Do you think he's getting a bit sh*tty? 

JOSIE: No. Why, is that how you feel? 

JOHN: Yeah, I just felt a bit like that today, yeah. 

JOSIE: How? 

JOHN: I just thought that maybe.. maybe he likes ya a bit.. 

JOSIE: No, he don't like me .. I'm obviously a bit closer to you than I am Nath, but I don't think he'd be jealous about that. 

JOHN: He does like you.. like.. 

JOSIE: No.. I feel a bit uncomfortable around him now..

JOHN: NAH! I didn't want it to come across like that.. cos I don't know yours and his relationship. 

JOSIE: Same as me and you! 

JOHN: It's a little bit more sexual stuff with you two, do you know what I mean?..  like .. 

JOSIE: What? 

JOHN: Like he talks about the way you look and that .. I don't! I seriously thought he was a fan! 

JOSIE: No. No more of a fan than you are, John James - bl**dy hell! 

JOHN: Oh I'm a big fan :) 

JOSIE: Thank you very much! (John giggles) Let's face reality f**k's sake .. 

JOHN: You don't think you're attractive at all? 

JOSIE:. I'm just average. 

John laughs and shakes his head; then stands up to adjust his widger in his trunks. Josie points and laughs at the hair under his belly (his treasure trail) 

JOHN: Someone else was taking the p*ss out of it before! (he gets out of the pool, Josie stays in and thumb sucks)  

2.57pm, yesterday HM's won their penalty shoot out task against BB Germany. As a reward, BB has given them football paraphenalia and a live screening of the England vs Germany World Cup match.
 

 John is tickled when Ben resolves that he doesn't mind watching as he only likes showjumping and Wimbledon. Shabby makes sure they don't have to watch the football before leaving the sofas. Ife suggests that those who don't want to watch it go to do the washing up. 

Ben confirms this is why democracy doesn't always work; because 80% of the HM's want to watch the football while 20% do not. Shabby complains that they have been left with a 'great' choice, to clean! 

SHABBY: This is gonna be a 'great' 90 minutes, I can tell already (!!) 

Corin gasps OMG when Germany score the first goal very quickly into the game. Ife comes into the kitchen and interferes with the cleaning process; exasperating Shabby about the hot water. 

SHABBY: Ife, love ya but b*gger off! Seriously! (Ife wants to go anyway) We do have some skill,s minimal between the 3 of us.. but some! (Ife hopes so) BL**DY HELL, it's our kitchen too, Ife! We're looking after it, we're on it! Don't worry. 

Ife makes her getaway while hoping that she hasn't missed a goal. Caoimhe calls out cattily that it is her problem if she did for hanging around the kitchen! Ife justifies that she'd only been coming to make a coffee. 

4.26pm, HM's have been watching the football for 1 hour and 26 minutes. 

JOHN: Watch this, he'll just slot this right in the corner. There it is - bang!

Dave and Steve are unimpressed over how bad and disgusting the match is! John looks as though he could cry. Ife comes out to inform the HM's in the garden that England are now losing 4-1! Corin is 'well annoyed!'

JOSIE: (in pool) How embarrassing!! And they get paid how much a year?!! ..A week? £300,000 a week? 

IFE: Stupid amounts! We're just too slow!

JOSIE: Well at least we beat 'em in the Big Bro house.. I know it's not quite the same but it's summat .. OMG I've got a hairy ass!! 

IFE: Join the club!

Ben beseeches her to wax it. 

JOSIE: I've just realised! How embarrassing! 

5.10pm, it's been 21 minutes since Germany knocked England out of the World Cup. Ben bids Dave to explain to him why England did so badly and Germany played very well. Dave determines that Germany looked fitter, sharper, more composed on the ball and just kept scoring 'absolutely terrible!' 

John James and Steve are in the living room. 

JOHN: This joint is a f**king pig sty! There's just sh*t f**king everywhere!! 

Josie and Ife are in the pool talking about John James. 

JOSIE: I think I fancy him sometimes but.. I don't think he's.. I know he's not interested in me. 

IFE: I think the other day, you know when he comes in the room, he's like looking.. and then he, you weren't there.. and you came in and then he was like (looks up extremely excited) I think he feels safe with you. 

JOSIE: Imagine how gorge his girlfriends have been! Really, really attractive!

IFE: You're really, really attractive. 

JOSIE: Oh yeah but not on .. not on his level!

IFE: Well, I would never say that.. I don't think you can put people in levels, cos there's so much than levels .. it depends what they like. 

JOSIE:  Yeah, true.. yeah. I made a right show of myself the other day. (Ife asks what she had done) When they were in their football kits, when he put his football kit on, I thought 'WOWWWWWWWW!'

IFE: That's what I was like!   

JOSIE: WOW!

Ife was embarrassed as John was talking and looked over when she was staring at him. 

JOSIE: I think he knew that I got really embarrassed about it. I had to put my sunglasses on so it wouldn't show that I was staring.. and now I've just realised, looking at your eyes, you can see right through 'em! (she laughs) Every time.. um John James looked at me in his football kit, I go a bit giddy! (the girls giggle)

5.51pm, most of the HM's are in the garden. Josie walks across the grass with her towel wrapped around her body. John eyes her up hungrily. (I'm filling in gaps from the HL's show with the live feed of these clips)

JOHN: Are you nude under there? (smiles insatiably)

JOSIE: No, I've got a swimming costume on! I reckon you're a fan! (John beams widely and alluringly) Don't mean to be a Sunshine! (they laugh, Ben asks what they'd said about Sunshine)

JOHN: Apparently I'm in love with Jose. 

JOSIE: Not in love!

BEN: I don't know whether you're in love with Josie or Sunshine! It's one or the other. 

JOHN: Don't start with me, Benny boy!

JOSIE: I don't think he's in love with anyone. 

JOHN: Don't think you can grow hair like that on your belly button and get away with it!

BEN: Maybe you're in love with me!

JOHN: (Lies down with Josie) Do you remember last night, when you woke up at like 3 in the morning? You went (supremely sweet) 'I love you Johnny!'

JOSIE: Did I? 

JOHN: Yeah, I said 'I love you too!' (Ben asks what Josie had said) She goes 'good night, John James' she goes 'I love you', I said 'I love you too!' (giggles)

JOSIE: Can't remember, must have been asleep! 

BEN: She declared her love to John!

JOSIE: I reckon he's winding me up. 

JOHN: No, I'm serious! Check the recordings!! Or else, I'll look like a right wally!

JOSIE: Oh right.. 

JOHN: Cos, I said it back, thinking that's what you said!

JOSIE: Oh, sorry. (they chuckle)

NATHAN: (Fake laughs) You're in love!!  (Corin asked what was said)

JOHN: She saus .. Cos I came in at like 3 in the morning,  I said 'good night', she said 'I love you!', I said 'I love you too!'

JOSIE: I can't remember saying it. 

JOHN: It's not so bad cos I said 'I love you too' so whatever happens at least they know I've just replied. 

JOSIE: Thanks for replying like that! (John laughs)

NATHAN: Get in the snug and get busy! (a saucy suggestion met with silence)

JOHN: Get in the snug.. that's what sh*ts me! You know, they whinge about people sleeping in the snug but if there was a guy and a girl sleeping in there - bet they wouldn't kick you out then! 

Ben believes they would as they'd be wanting the guy and girl to do something. 'Can anyone hear ducks in the distance? Quack, quack, quack!'  John had been debating going back in the pool. 

JOSIE: (rubbing sun cream into her face) That factor 30's strong, isn't it? Has it sunk in yet? 

JOHN: You can't even see nothing, seriously!

JOSIE: I hate this blue eyeshadow that I've got on. 

JOHN: I would seriously tell you. 

JOSIE: I'm not a fan of blue eyeshadow. I don't know why they put this on me.

Ben thinks it is quite 80's and that it is associated with girls in WH Smiths. John turns around to see Josie staring closely at him inspecting his face.

JOHN: I know that face! What've I got? Just spit it out! What have I got? I can't be f**ked.

JOSIE: Dry lips! Really dry lips.

JOHN: I always get really dry lips, don't I? 

JOSIE: Yeah. 

JOHN: I've got um.. (Josie has turned away so he prods her to regain her attention) Hey, hey!! You listen when I speak!

JOSIE: Oh, sorry.. 

JOHN: I've got um lip stuff but never do I use lip balm or anything. 

JOSIE: I bet you're a good kisser, aren't you Ben? Cos your lips are always moist!

JOHN: (Pokes her again) I'm a good kisser!

JOSIE: (teases playfully) What with those dry, chapped lips? 

JOHN: Ah (ruffles her hair affectionately) I'd go like this, if I can kiss ya.. I'd go like this (quick lick of the lips, they laugh. Ben announces he was teased as a child for having very red lips) Hey.. (prods her again) and it doesn't.. It doesn't take long to build up moistu.. um saliva, when you're kissing someone (imitates a snog) takes like 2 seconds. 

JOSIE: Obviously you've had a lot of practice, John.. cos you're like the Australian serial snogger! You don't wanna let anyone down! (they giggle)  

REST OF THIS IS FROM THE LIVE FEED: (James 32 video - John James' dry lips) Josie leans in towards John while he gazes greedily at her luscious lips. She spots an opportunity to touch his chest due to a spot she has seen on his vest. John thinks it has got better and he'd asked Josie to spot wash it ages ago. 

Mario comes out, they check Sunshine is okay. Josie then asks Ben why his lips aren't so red anymore. John vows to stop mocking Sunshine as he doesn't want to upset her. Then John takes his turn to make Josie self-conscious by goggling at her. 

JOSIE: What? What? 

JOHN: That's how you look at people!

JOSIE: What? What? I don't understand!

JOHN: That's how you look at someone .. like when you're investigating their face. 

JOSIE: Oh is it? Right, I don't even know I do it. 

JOHN: And then you pick a spot.. 


JOSIE: Yeah, I know.. my friends say I do the same as well. (Ben questions what she does with her friend)  

JOHN: No one else would have noticed.. I noticed that you (Ben) missed out on the shaving but I didn't say nothing.. but Josie, don't worry, if you've got somethin'.. 

JOSIE: Yeah, but would you rather know or not know? (Ben is glad she'd told him) Like John James had a boomer of a bogie hanging out of his nose earlier on and I went (more quietly) 'John, you've got a boomer of a bogie!' 

JOHN: Yeah, but when she had one .. didn't say nothin'!

JOSIE: Yeah but why? I would rather you tell me!  

JOHN: I had to pick it out for her! (Ben explains to Josie that she is very direct) I had to pick her nose for her. I've seen wor... (SC) 

JOSIE: I've picked everyone's nose in here now! (laughs and SC)

JOHN: If you've got a leg.. if you've got so much as an extra .. (SC) 

JOSIE: Why do you reckon I do that? 

JOHN: Nah, I just know people that do that. You're not the only one. 

JOSIE: Oh!

JOHN: Yeah.. imperfection, yeah.. 

JOSIE: I don't know why I do that.. (Ben asks why she does what) Like say, you know you missed a massive chunk! (Cracks up)

JOHN: It's not massive.. it's about the size of 2 pieces of grass! I did notice it, but I thought you either were doing it on purpose, or it wasn't even worth .. 

JOSIE: You'd have rather not been told or..(Ben is glad she did say)

JOHN: Show me it, show me it!

JOSIE: I think I'm doing everyone a favour by telling 'em.

JOHN: When you go have a look in the mirror at that, after she's told you it's about the size of the back yard, you'll be like 'What? You made me get up to shave off 3 hairs??'

JOSIE: Yeah, but I know the kind of person Ben is.. (SC)

JOHN: Ah! The best Benny was when um.. eviction night, sorry to bring that up.. but eviction nights, the amount of times you went into the bathroom!


Ben bleats that he's not volatile, he was in the bathroom because he became nervous.

JOHN: Oh and let me bring up another one! You had an acka dacka, didn't ya? Guess who.. let me guess who told ya about that spot!

BEN: Pam Ferris over there!

JOHN: Was it Jose? (giggles) Was it Josie who picked up on the spot? 

JOSIE: I was doing his make up!

Ben thinks these things should always be told. But will say that it is better if you tell someone when they're on their own but not with something like shaving. 'But if I had like a big blackhead or something, I wouldn't say it in front of John for example! I'd pull me aside' (SC) 'Not in front of Star shine!' 

JOHN: What? Say it again, pal!

BEN: I think she's right to point out embarrassing things but she should do it (clips skips)

JOHN: Cos it was about the size of (giggles) She was making it sound like it was the size of that earring there! (pointing to the one on his puppet)

JOSIE: He was nearly paying Council Tax, put it that way! (John covers his eyes laughing) Who would want to be interviewed by Davina with a massive spot! (Corin thinks Josie did the right thing) 

JOHN: But then if you would have picked it, might've made it worse. 

JOSIE: No because it was half hanging out! 

Ben hadn't thought it was as big as Josie had been implying; Josie was only joking about that!

JOHN: I'm the sort of person who would find it hard to.. like if someone had a booger up their nose.. I just sorta ignore it and hope that they find it themselves! I find it so hard to tell people, I want to but.. 

JOSIE: I don't think that's a mate!

JOHN: It's not about a mate.. because I feel bad telling the person, do you know what I mean? 

Corin considers it is because of the embarrassment. (SC)

JOHN: That was after you told me, I got it out for ya!

NATHAN: As if anyone would think any less of ya cos you've got a bogie!

JOHN: Nah, I don't think less! I've probably had the most in here!! She's (points to Josie) picked  about 4 out! But I don't think less. And I'm one of the people that find it hard to..

Corin cackles at how Sunshine had told her she thought she needed to blow her nose again when they were in the bathroom. 

JOHN: Sometimes if they've got a bit of food, I can go like that (taps his face) and if they don't pick up what I'm putting down then it's too bad. And if they go 'what?' I just go .. and if they don't pick it up straight away .. if they go 'did I get it?' I go 'yeah!' (chuckles cheekily) It's not to be rude, I just find it hard to.. yeah.. I don't know what to say. I don't wanna say at the dinner table 'hey mate, you've got a booger up your nose!' Cool!

Nathan offers to halve his lager with Josie but she declines as Corin wants some. Then a few seconds after she asks if she can have a can; she hasn't had one. Ben kindly offers her his as he doesn't like them. 

JOHN: You can have mine too. Yeah boogers are fair enough. 

JOSIE: But I wouldn't tell you in front of everybody, I'd tell you when you was on your own. It was only me and you in the pool. 

JOHN: Yeah, you'd just go 'oi!' 

JOSIE: What's our little code again? (she taps the side of her nose)

(BACK TO THE HL'S) 6.30pm, it's been 16 minut since the puppet task ended. Ben and Mario are in bed. Ben wants to know how he has annoyed Mario; Mario tells Ben that he finds his interest in Extra-terrestrials very weird. It is hard for Ben as there is not any evidence that they exist 'but maybe that just means that you've got a broader mind than I do.' 

MARIO: (moodily) Does that matter? 

BEN: Of course! Because you're my friend and I don't want to offend you! You do a lot for me. Sorry. 

Mario meanly mentions that he's just realised Ben is more narrow-minded that he first thought. Ben squeals that he's not remotely so, he just has no interest in aliens! 

BEN: Shut up you twit! You can't make me look narrow-minded. I defend the indefensible!

Josie has come to the Diary room. 

JOSIE: I think I've got a bit of a .. what do you call it when you.. erm.. a fantasy! I think I got.. I think I like blokes in football kits. 

BB: Which of the boys looks best in his football kit? 

JOSIE: Er Nathan and John! (giggles) Nathan looked like um.. is it John Terry? The naughty boy! And uh.. John looked like Beckham!

BB: What is it about the footballer look you like? 

JOSIE: I don't know what it is, I can't help it.. I feel really naughty! Pfff.. I quite like the rugby look as well.. quite like the soldier look as well, quite like the navy look.. I even quite like the police uniform, quite nice.. I even like overalls!

BB: You said you feel naughty, why do you feel naughty? 

JOSIE: (Guffaws) I don't know what it is but when they've got a football kit on, I just turn into a proper randy mare.. and I'm not like that!

8.59pm, Ben suggests in honour of Steve's birthday that they go round the room and each ask him an amusing, but not too personal question. 

JOHN: Coming from Mr Personal himself.. who won't answer.. 

BEN: I'll ask amusing questions. I don't wanna be asked about my blood type and stuff.

His question to Steve is: what was the naughtiest/wickedest thing you did as a child? Steve had cut off all the hair on his sister's dolls just because he wanted to, when he was 8 or 9. 

Mario's question: how old were you when you last your virginity and how did it happen? Steve was too young and won't tell them because he doesn't know who is watching. 

JOHN: My question to Steve on his birthday .. out of all your tattoos, which one means the most to you?

Other than the tattoos of Steve's children, 'the bomb cos that's laughing in the face of adversity!'  

JOHN: Now I know that.. cos I've been looking over for a while.

Shabby asks Steve what has been the single best moment of his 41 years so far. The best was surving the bomb and second was meeting his wife Dionne as he loves her to bits, though she probably doesn't realise it and she's given him loads of great kids. 

9.39pm, as a reward for passing the puppet task, HM's have been provided with a karaoke party for Steve's birthday.  When No Woman No cry (one of Steve's favourites) flashes up on screen Josie is delighted 'WICKED!! I know this one. Yeah, man!!' She and Ife get their groove on while Steve sings away on the pink microphone. 

Ben and Dave are in the nest. Ben admits to Dave (and not just to flatter him) that apart from Dave there isn't anyone else's company that he enjoys all the time. He slates Mario for not being witty or funny, despite being one of his best friends 'he makes little comments about UFO's and things!' 

BEN: Johnny, I absolutely love.. I'm not as close to John as I am to Mario but I love John. But John always needs someone else to bounce off. I just can't believe that people don't want to actively discuss things more.. or laugh more. All people want to talk about is: tits and bums and vaginas.. 

Ben does like sexual innuendo when it is amusing, witty and varied. He doesn't want to hear about the same things all the bl**dy time! Ben's struggling with the lack of privacy, which he had known was a part of BB but he thought there would be reception rooms (having never seen the programme before) for little activities like a jigsaw or a game of cards. Dave decides they have to fly from the nest, so the Baron doesn't think they have ditched out on him on his birthday. 

BEN: Yeah, we don't want a riff between us and the Baron! (they head inside to finish off the song with the others)

10.14pm, Sunshine, Shabby and Corin are at the carousel. Sunshine is contemplating wearing the blonde Myra Hindlye-looking wig at her eviction. Corin and Shabby convince her this is a horrific idea as she is actually really pretty so should leave her hair as it is. Sunshine continues to pout and smile at her reflection in the mirror. 

Shabby has to stop mincing her words 'it's minging babe, it's minging!' as Sunshine loves it so much. 'It makes you look older, that's not a good thing.'

CORIN: Yeah, I think it is a bit Deidre Barlow looking!

Caoimhe, Nathan and Josie are in the Diary room with a proposition for the big guy (BB) Nathan perches up on the seat 'nice and tight' with his 'main girls' copping a feel of Josie's leg as he does so! Nathan proposes swapping the half-eaten birthday cake with 1 burnt out candle for some tobacco and alcohol.

NATHAN: Right, what do you say to that, big guy? 

JOSIE: It's a deal, it's a steal!

NATHAN: This delicate flower has wilted. 

JOSIE: I'd just like a bit of rose, if I gotta be honest. 

NATHAN: (Lewdly, proving that John was correct about Nathan making his relationship with Josie more sexual) I can make your cheeks rosey!

JOSIE: Ooooh, you naughty boy!

BB asks HM's how they are enjoying Steve's birthday. Caoimhe mimics Corin that she's loving it and buzzing, but Josie has eaten too much. Nathan feels it is a privilege to be with such good friends but they are lacking booze to help them get to know each other on the inside. 

NATHAN: There'll be no snoggy snoggies without boozy boozies!

Caoimhe and Josie oooooooooh :D 10.25pm, the HM's are karaoke-ing to Eminem's 'Without me' and struggling to keep up with the rapping. 

12.41am, some of the HM's are in the (darkened) bedroom. John is in bed with Josie as she scruffles his wispy hair. 

JOHN: Oi, stop it! Stop it!

He wrestles her under the duvet as they play fight hitting each other's hands and roughly ruffling their hair.  Josie lays her arm against John's chest and he holds onto it; their giggling soon disturbs a Neanderthal Nathan 'can you keep it down, guys?'

This does nothing to settle them or stop their mischief-making. Josie clamps her hand over John's (chapped) lips to silence him after their rude rebuking. 

JOSIE: Do you ever shut your mouth, John? Do you ever shut up? Cos you keep going on and on and on (shaking his head vigorously)

Steve, Sunshine, Dave and Mario are in the living room. Sunshine (Dave's precious) piles on top of Mario's good night hug to Dave. Sunshine waves farewell after asking Steve if he'd had a good birthday but not really being courteous enough to listen to his answer. Dave thinks Steve did well on the lager front! Steve sometimes still can't believe he's in there; Dave agrees that it is pretty surreal. 

DAVE: I think I'm gonna have a poo and go to bed. (and with that disgusting disclosure he departs, leaving Steve lonesome at the sofas)
