Day 30 Live Day

FROM WHATM:

9.54am, Titan's voice becomes Dave's wife and wishes him a happy anniversary and he'll have a steaming vindaloo tonight. He replays some of Steve's chat...now in Austin Powers voice being sexy to Corin....goes brrr brrr.. farted and in Nathan's voice says better out than in...

Aww, John gives an upset Dave (hiding underneath his doona) a big cuddle in bed.

10.13am, Mario now in bed with Josie, he's doing a lot of bed hopping this morning. Mario tells Jose he feels happier this morning. Jose says 'Thank God for that!' She then say 'Oh no, someone's stood on my robot costume!'Josie feels sick this morning.

BEN (to Josie): I'm glad you like Caoimhe she's great, I've loved her since the first day.

Josie does an industrial scrub on her teeth. Caoimhe wants to go back to Madrid; Mario lived in Barcelona with his on & off lover. Caoimhe has 1 year left in college to finish her degree and she would love to set up her own vintage clothes shop. Mario is going to focus on his fashion when he leaves the house.

UH OH DS WAS DOWN SO HERE IS A RUNDOWN

Josie plays Hic Hac Hoc with a dressed up robo-mannequin, robo does 'rock' every time. Caoimhe thinks Mario will have a massive following (from gay people) Mario says he bets they will invite Shabby to London Pride next week. 

DAVE: What was it like with old Lord Fontleroy last night?

CORIN: It was all right, he is funny.




Ben doesn't lie around in the real world, it's getting him down a bit only having a few clothes, Mario suggests he wears more of JJ's clothes. Ben & Mario talk about how it's better not to shower every day & leaving your hair for 2 months it will then self cleanse. Ben & Mario say dreadlocks smell and Ben cuddles Mario on bed. 

Ife's feet are sore, Steve tells her she's lucky to have feet to be sore & then goes on to say he has no sympathy for his kids when their legs ache. Says he is probably the worst dad in the world.

The mangle has been moved from the garden. Ben asks Josie what she would like to eat, 'Pad Thai' but he meant right now.

JOSIE: I'm not hungry.

BEN: You are always hungry.

11.26am, Ben starts complaining that people are picking on him for not doing the washing up, he tries to blame John for telling everyone. Josie starts defending John saying 'no it was Steve who said that.' John warns Ben to shut up about it but finds it all hilarious; Ben wants to know what he means.

JOHN: Why volunteer to do it and then not turn up?

BEN: Well what is wrong with that?

John to Ben 'you can't let the Baron do the washing.' Ben won't be coerced into doing it by John, 'I do it more than you.' Ben says he does it every lunch time. Steve shouting out to Ben, who then asks Dave to get them to lay off him, Dave says he made a mistake of saying he wasn't a team player.

Ben asks John why he tries to make his life miserable. Josie said Steve was saying how lazy Ben is. Ben never tells John to do the washing up. Ben was trying to be a friend to Caoimhe and Dave by smoothing things over for them (even though actually he was bitching to Keevs about Dave) which is why he didn't do the washing yesterday. Ben says John is like a child at school that tells on other children. Ben doesn't know why everyone doesn't wash their own plates and then take turns washing up Nathan's stuff (pots & pans etc), John was up for this idea originally.

BEN: John,  you are a tattle-tale!

Dave didn't enjoy doing the washing up on his own for an hour with no hot water.

BEN: John, we had such a nice chat last night why do you always have to wind me up? 

JOHN: Because it's easy, you are so funny, you give people an invitation to.

DAVE: No one is turning on you we have to work together. 

NATHAN: Imagine if I didn't do the tea for everyone, we all have to help each other out. (not for much longer Nathan)
Caoimhe takes responsibility for it being her fault allowing Ben to have a clear conscience; saying 'Ben was trying to help me out.'

BEN: Just be my friend.

JOHN: I still am your friend.

Ben is now telling Nathan that he is being victimised..and that he is happy to do the washing-up on his day, but he won't do the washing up on a day that isn't his day unless he has been given plenty of warning. (presumably to put it in his diary)

11.46am, Housemate to gather at sofas, meanwhile Ben is still going on about how John is so unloyal blah blah blah. Ben says some of the HM's have a low sense of self worth so go on about the 'team'. Caoimhe thinks this is a good point. Ben is doing the washing up :D

Next challenge: an explosive battle of Air bed inflating - 

John says whoever does it will become a robot. A few HM's then suggest Ben, he says he did one yesterday so doesn't want to do it. Ife says it should be John, Dave, Mario, Ife or Steve or Nathan (I think). John points out that Ben won't battle at the final battle which Ben agrees with but still insists he won't do it; Nathan offers to step up to the plate.   
11.55am, Titan will be equipped with a blowmaster and Housemate equipped with foot pump. The housemates speculate that this is a challenge that can't be won....Nathan must make his way to the robot room. Twitter says he failed (no point is spoilers because the task will be over when you finally read this!)

Nathan tells Titan he is nothing more than a glorified toaster and Titan wins!

12.09pm, Steve has a bee in his bonnet about Ben and the washing up and has whinged about it to all the males in the house. Ben blames John for the comments; John saying to just send Bennie in for the next task. He's ranting about Ben again and his lack of effort in tasks. John is right that Ben needs to become a robot. When the Titan battle comes Ben will be useless to the HM's.

12.23pm, Ben telling John to nominate him on Monday as it is the public who decides who stays in the House, not the HMs. I'm sure he believes he's invincible. Ife being chased around the garden by the car bots. WTF? She gives up and sits down. Hee hee 2 of them and a production team's foot in the background. Ife gets caught so she turns both of the chaserbots onto their roofs. 

12.46pm, Ben now talking about Hitler and the Holocaust. Hitler was an Anglophile, he admired a lot of what Britain did. They should have negotiated before he started killing people. Ben doesn't think the Nazis began mass executions until the middle of WW2. "I've studied this for 10 years" he says, so why doesn't he know that Dachau and Belsen were operational from the early 30's? 
LOL Caoimhe picking Dave up for saying Hitler was 'full of demons' - saying so any good person is 'full of saints and angels'? Dave feels that Hitler was full of demons because it's not in a human being to do what he is alleged to have done. Dave tells Caoimhe that she doesn't realise how she cuts across the atmosphere of the house. Dave says Keeva brings negativity to topics and that she is trying to shut down who he is. 

JOSIE: Dave, if Adolf Hitler was in the room right now, I'd easily just blow his head off with a shotgun... Does that make me an evil person though?

DAVE: Ummm.....

Dave saying that would be different; he states to Josie that Hitler was possessed by demons, involved in satanism & the occult. Nathan is strongly expressing his opinions to Ben; he feels that we need to learn the lessons from the past in order to prevent a reoccurrence.

Steve adds that Britain would not be the country it is today if the Nazis had succeeded. 

JOSIE: I have a laugh with Caoimhe, but I think she's just angry with religion. 

Dave says he feels that Caoimhe is just angry full stop.He believes that "Hitler was being possessed by a supernatural being intent on killing millions of people." Meanwhile Ben's ranting about Steve because Steve accused him of offending all British soldiers or something.

12.57pm, Dave says he doesn't want to be shut down and Josie is basically telling him that Caoimhe already feels shut down, but he just doesn't get it. 
WANNA MAKE SOME ROBOT LOVE? (James 32 video):

Dave has a slight bitter after taste from his last cup of Caoimhe contentions; he feels there's no need of it (the way she is) and that people should come in there to have a good time.

DAVE: There is no need for people to walk into a room and cut straight across the atmosphere of it!

JJJ pay him no heed because they find each other so sexy, that they just get distracted. John by sticking his hand into Josie's box making squeey sounds (on the robot suit, you dirty-minded dawgs!!) and stroking and fondling her face; Josie by rubbing the back of his arm before they gently graze hands. (SC)

DAVE: (directed towards John) But you're doing it all the time..

JOHN: (has no inkling what Dave's droning about on account of Josie commanding all his attention) Doing what?

(SC) Gloryboy isn't sorry to break up the petting party by mounting on top of John, wrapping him up in a hug. He restrains Parton which has him groaning (but not in a pleasurable-for-him-way!) but John's mouth manages to get a saucy shot in.

JOHN: (Dave mauls him like a wild boar) The Lord done nothing for me! (Dave's hand muzzles his lips so that his noises of annoyance are muffled)

DAVE: (hugs him harder) Never mind, you're going tomorrow.. don't worry about it. (John agrees) I'm only pulling his leg, he knows that. He's a good boy!

Josie tries to get her say in while Dave carries on coddling the blighter - she thinks there's a difference and that John James isn't that negative, he'd just been paranoid.

DAVE: He's brilliant, I love him!
JOHN: A bit what? 

She repeats the word 'paranoid' which Dave decides is accurate. 

JOSIE: Because you don't trust many people, you get paranoid and sometimes it can come across negative.. but you're not negative really. 

Her words are indubitable - it's not that John was a negative nancy boy about everything; it is more than he was ultra aware that he was on a game show so couldn't stop analysing who he could truly trust. I'd imagine his paranoia was worse on the outside world, particularly being in the public eye - not knowing who was really a fan or who wanted to smash his face in! Someone with his character, I just cannot envisage getting used to doting followers, obsering his every move it would have been very daunting. 

Perhaps the paranoia manifested itself more so with respect to management and media contacts as they have no loyalties - one day they love you, the next tear you apart. How could John in particular withstand that being as distrustful as he was/is? No wonder he didn't want to go out too often and burrowed himself away, because he'd have felt safer at home with his girlfriend.

Now more than ever, I think Josie would totally understand John being like that because it seems that she has become that way herself. She's said words to this effect that she is more wary and cautious of people because so many people in the media world have screwed her over. So it doesn't shock or dismay me (the way it does others) when she snaps back at people on twitter, even her own supporters. To be fair to her, she has over 300,000 followers on twitter and yes she's met some of us but how is she supposed to remember us all? How can she really tell that you do genuinely care, when she responds to a critical tweet that she's interpreted as a person having a pop at her? She can't. She's only human.   

John flops his arm down around Josie in a bear hug, crushing his cranium against her cardboard chest as she caresses it. They look so blissful. 
JOSIE: (affectionately) I love 'im!

DAVE: (wry) I'm gonna miss you when you're gone, John. 

They laugh that everyone thinks John is going, especially as Dave had said to John yesterday that he wouldn't so has changed his mind. (SC) Josie has a sharp intake of breath (hating the idea of missing out on her daily John James Parton fix) when John mentions that he doesn't like it when people tell him he's staying. He didn't think that was the view and liked his own and he was happy to go with it, thinking that everyone had the same as his.  

JOSIE: Yeah but I just I keep thinking 'oh yeah, you're going' because then if you do stay, I'll be (more vivaciously) sooooooooo happy!!!!! 

John has worked out that Dave probably told Seahorse 2 minutes ago that he doesn't think he's going. (SC) 

JOHN: (lustfully) Yeahhhh! (Josie puckers her lips up for him even though he's not in bed with her now) Might go play with the traffic. 

JOSIE: Wanna make some robot love? (as he walks away)

JOHN: (bashful baba) Noooo. (though throws himself upon her body) 

"LOL the second she says fancy some robot love she jumps right on top of her!" (triplejfan)
"John is all over Robot Josie isn't he?" (Giwwy)

"Haha! as usual John says no and really means yes!" (ummyluvs) 

"He always did fancy her in that robot outfit." (rachykins12) 

1.01pm, Ben's holding court in the snug, ranting to Mario when John opens the door and Ben quickly falls silent.

JOHN: Who are we whinging about?

John points out that he'd made his comments to a war veteran and it was obvious they wouldn't be taken very well. Ben says he was "only" in Northern Ireland, not the second world war. Oh dear - Ben told Caoimhe what Dave had said and Caoimhe has told Dave that. Dave now comes to question Ben about it. 

BEN : I haven't done anything behind your back......

1.09pm, Josie is complaining that the glue of her robot suit is sticking to her and thinks she might have got some sort of poisoning from sucking her thumb with some "stuff" on it. She keeps feeling sicky! 
E4 LIVE FEED STARTS

The live feed kicks off with Corin plucking her eyebrows whilst in the bath tub. Meanwhile in the nest, Ben is bending ears about certain people being in the armed forces or in diplomacy because they are skilled in those areas and is making himself sound all pathetic and ragged in the process. Nathan is narked and already knows he doesn't want to hear this 'if everyone across the world, had your outlook on life.. to basically look out for Number 1..' 

Dave and John view this as a perfect appraisal on Benny's attitude but he answers that they have that totally wrong. This morning had been a prime example and it keeps coming down to this washing up issue because that is how its manifesting itself - instead of starting a lot of arguments, why doesn't he turn around and say 'do you know what lads, I'll muck in! It'll take 30 minutes out of my whole experience in here.' Ben pretends he has a leg to stand on, arguing back that he has done that a lot. 

NATHAN: (delivering some home truths) The key word 'lot' - you haven't Ben. Why would you sooner sit down and argue the toss and lie down, when you've just got out of bed.. than make the group a happy place?!

Ben knows he'll disagree with this but parries that he'd got up and hadn't eaten anything (only a small bowl of cereal which he then washed up) he chatted with Corin in the garden, the sun then came out and as they haven't had much sun recently 'I lay on a pillow and then 3 or 4 people all starting shouting at me to do the dishes, as the Baron was doing them and it was unfair. I said I will do it at lunchtime.' (long SC) John has his legs in the air as Nathan inquires why Ben doesn't ever give as it's all take, take, take from him (he's never going to be the rolls-up-his-sleevesy type is he?) 'What have you ever done for say, Mario?'
Ben hopes he has listened to him when he's had things he wanted to talk about, amused him at times and shown an interest in his outside life. 

JOHN: Just a common friendship!

So they move on to what he's done for Dave - (Ben feels they were both isolated at the start) he's spent a lot of time with him and because he's wanted to not because he had to and enjoyed his humanity. Nathan continues to quiz him through other HM's 'what have you done for Johnny James? (he replies 'same with John') What have you done for me?'  Ben slightly relents that it's probably not very much but he's done lots for Caoimhe. (SC) He's not helped with cooking knowing that Nathan likes to do it and respects that. (SC)

NATHAN: I love you too bits, Ben right.. I have the best time with ya.. but you don't understand you are the most selfish man I have ever met in my whole, entire life. (SC) 

Dave chortles and John concurs that Benny is and has admitted so before; Ben backpedals that they don't know how he is (SC) Big Brobot calls for Ife to make her way to the robo-room to collect her costume. Nathan is exasperated that Ben makes excuse to put off doing the dishes by saying he'll do it at lunch or he won't as he's helping Dave and has said on 2 occasions to give him 5 minutes and then he'll do it. But he scuttled off and hid in the hut!! (SC) It took Dave an hour to clean the whole kitchen on his own with no hot water. 

Acknowledging that Ben may feel that it is an attack on him, Nathan ensures that it's not he's trying to make him realise that there's more people in this house other than him. Ben gives an example that both Shabby and Caoimhe never did the washing up but the cameras shift to Ife meeting her new robot raiment.  

IFE: (wailing) Oh noooooooooooooooooo, ok let's try and make the best of this.
She removes her top and microphone to try the garbs on for size (SC) she swiftly takes it back off as she oww's, putting her mic back on.. seconds later the suit comes off once more so that she can attach her legs. After her sunglasses on in place, she trundles out to the garden to find John and Caoimhe play fighting *deep breaths Keevil-haters, deep breaths!!* Caoimhe grabs at his arm, so he takes hold of both of hers and tries to thong-flick. 

CAOIMHE: (seductive tone) You have been a naughty boy!

*Ew mini vomit* as the entire JJJAT wishes she would fall lip-first into a wood chipper! Ife goes to the bathroom to express her disappointment that BB hadn't even given the outfit anything to look like her. (SC) John sits on one of the carousel horses while Josie rolls a cig; Caoimhe asks if they think it's okay for her to drink a bottle of water that had been left there. John's not sure but Josie thinks out loud in a Jamaican accent 'every-ting alright!' (SC) 

Mario reads Dave's Bible in the nest sensing that this altercation Monk and Nathan were in the middle of with Ben was not going to be a quick or painless one. Ben will not have it that he's a selfish man - no matter how many times Dave and Nathan tell him he is! But Dave consoles that he and Mario love him before an (ad break) 

Dave loves ranting Nathan, as he laughs when Seahorse puts to Ben 'if I had a choice of a Mars bar or a bowl of water - what do you think I should have? What do you think I deserve?' Ben prances around the question with an answer that Nathan should have whatever he wants but he'd prefer the bowl of water. £%@&$!?*# BEN SHOULD BE STUDIED BY SCIENTISTS FOR THAT PREFERENCE ALONE!!! Who in their right mind, seriously thinks 'oh yessss yummy yum yum - a bowl of water, what an excellent alternative to a minging Mars bar!'??? He must be medically out of his mind!
Nathan presses him to answer the question hand on heart as it is one or the other; Ben doesn't see why he should have to choose. Seahorse isn't letting him wriggle off the hook that easily after Ben explained that he believed in individuals - Ben doesn't deem him to deserve either and that he should have what he wants. Nate sighs as though he wants to stick the little twig in the garbage but decides to put it to him another way - Ben is sent into a room, 1 box has a Mars bar in and the other the bowl of water 'which are you going to give to Nathan?' Ben selects the Mars bar as Nathan's prize knowing he'd prefer the water. (SC) 

There's now a twist to Ben obtaining this present for Nathan: he must do 10 star jumps and 10 press ups - what would he give him? 

BEN: (proving their point precisely) Oh for God's sake! I'd give you the water. (SC)

With all these SC's it is evident that Nathan is using more than a little profanity in his heated dealings with a dolt! He does get foul when hes enthusiastic or passionate about what he preaches. The amount of Mars bars and water bowls are multiplied by 10 for the group and he'd still rather see them go without the chocolate, in order to NOT do some mild exercise. They are out of ways of telling Ben he's the most selfish person they've ever met; Dave dies in the corner delighting in Nathan's rebukement of Ben. (SC) 

Nathan is peeved that he cooks 2 hot meals a day for Ben but he wouldn't do willing to do 10 star jumps and press ups for him to have a Mars Bar. (SC) Mario blandishes for them to lay off an under fire Ben now which is 'a good exiting note' for Nathan who doesn't want to talk to Ben right now but he still likes him. He feels that Ben doesn't appreciate anything he's done for him and is selfish even in a hypothetical situation, plus he gives nothing back to the group. Dave is off too to take his Bible back murmuring that Ben is from a different realm. 

Ben grouses but Mario is on hand to tell him not to worry about it. It's not even lunchtime and Ben is aggrieved to have already done a good day's work by offending a war hero. (SC) This is disgraceful even by his standards! It's like he expects Mario to pick him up and rock him like a baby for his own blunders. Mario titters that it would be even funnier now if Ben went up to Nathan to ask what was for lunch; Ben complies that he probably would do that anyway. (SC)
An abandoned Ben stands by his views 'they think we're on Animal Farm.. or some form of Utopia, where if everyone does a plate each - everyone'll be happy.'  Mario disbelieves that Ben has read Animal Farm as that is not what happens in the book as a dictatorship forms and there's no equality whatsoever. THIS is why Ben likened it to the house as 2 or 3 people tell everybody how they should do things. It's his nature not to give in to that (TO BE OBSTINATE) and he's proud to be this way 'am I a horrible person?' 

Mario would agree with him up to a certain point and doesn't think anyone in there is a horrible person. 'What we've got to remember is we're 14 people from such opposite lifestyles, smashed together. Of course there's gonna be friction! It's like when you take 2 light particles in a hydrogen (SC)' What really hurts Ben is the way they keep on that he's a selfish, awful person when he cares more about individuals, their welfare and if people are happy or not. He'd spent an hour chatting with Caoimhe as she was upset and he's proud because that's what should be done. 

BEN: I care about my friends, I care about my loved ones. No I'm not gonna care about a collective that I've known for half an hour. I'm not. 

He does care about Mario and Dave because they are now his friends (SC) Ben is concerned about how Steve will be portraying him as someone who has insulted the vast ranks of the Armed Forces; Mario recommends having his own say in the Diary room to balance it out. Ben thinks he will do that; following on from this is their conversation shown on the HL's show. Mario has made up with Ife and plans to just punch her on back of the head with an OI if she annoys him. 

Ben looks like he's becoming clinically depressed as he rubs at his head while questioning Mario on why John has suddenly turned on him, doesn't seem to like him anymore and constantly gives him a hard time. 

MARIO: (Kidding around) Cos nobody likes you. 

Ummmmmm mate it was Nathan and Dave giving you a hard time not John. John was just keeping you at an arm's length because he stopped trusting you and had become inseparable with a blonde Bristolian, who's a bit big in the game. Anddddd like everyone watching you, he'd get bored in 2 seconds flat of your whinging on! 
Ben doesn't understand why he and John got on so well at the beginning but don't now. (SC) The thing with Steve really did hurt him and he's amazed nobody stood up for him (he'd not anticipated that Mario would as he has enough on his plate) because they knew what he was trying to say. He'd been attempting to make a historical and political debate and said nothing about the Armed Forces; Mario hadn't heard what Steve said prior to that and only walked in when he was laying into Ben. (SC)

BEN: He is a sacred cow. 

The Quiff (which is losing its blonde streaks) is far too upset to put any of what was said into any kind of perspective and is ireful that none of them know anything about International Affairs or Foreign policies - with the exception of Mario, who still disagrees with Ben. Most historians do!! (ad break) 

Now Ben is lying on Mario's manhood as Moley conducts a self-visualisation exercise to relax him. Ben imagines that he's having dauphinoise potatoes with roast lamb, carrots and sweet potato for lunch. (SC) In the living room, Josie is affixing one of her robo-legs and can't be bothered to go outside as she's fed up having to wear her costume all day. John honestly didn't think it would be like that and that they'd be similar to the red suits.. flicks back to the therapy session in the nest. 

Even when Ben and Mario have had little tiffs, Quiff still wouldn't presume that Mario's relationships are like with people outside. Mario finds it funny that someone who managed well at boarding school is finding it difficult to do essentially the same thing as an adult. Ben was happy to do his own thing there, liked lessons and generally got out of activities he didn't want to do and do other things. The difference was that the people there didn't resent it as the Rugby boys accepted that Ben shouldn't go to rugby because he'd be dreadful. So he'd go for a walk or do music instead. 

If he were an educationalist, his school motto would be to nurture the individual as he believes everybody has potential and something they are really good at and some humanity - you just have to find it. 'The mistake is to make everyone the same.' Mario is a firm believer that everyone has a talent whether it be physical, musical, social, artistic. Back to the living room Steve is helping Josie know that she's not alone in wondering why she's there sometimes as it's 'the total mentalness of BB.' (SC)  
JOHN: (identifies with this) Everyone feels like that, Jose. 

JOSIE: I haven't done me hair in weeks.. a month!

Mario appeases Ben that he'll have a talk with Nathan a little later once everyone's gone off as there seems to be an air of argumentativeness today. He's not just meaning with regards to Ben but the entire house and informs him that 'emotions are infectious.. they spread from one person to another.' (SC) He reasons that it could be pressures with Nathan and John as tomorrow will be the last day for either one of them. Ben brandishes that they hadn't behaved like that when they faced eviction; Mario had screamed in his pillow while Ben thought 'if I go, I go.' 

BEN: (displaying his pathetic-ness to the world) John just goes at me, that's what I have a problem with Mario. 

Mario tells him that he always takes the bait whereas if he didn't - it wouldn't happen. Ben is begrumpled about Nathan and the cooking thing as he is grateful for the meals but doesn't tell him to do it. Mario puts the priggish twig in his place as when he says things like that it really makes him come across as spoiled and ungrateful about it. He knows exactly what he means but it comes across in that manner which makes him appear those things 'so just don't focus on things like that. And you can't deny that on the outside world you are a little spoiled. You have a cleaner!' 

Ben confesses to being selfish but won't have it said that he is spoilt; Mario thinks everyone is to an extent and that there's no bl**dy Mother Theresa or Gandhi in the house and very few in the world for that matter. They are becoming hungry but Ben fears he won't be given lunch but is chided that Nathan isn't petty like that. Ben wants Mario to let him tell the honest truth is that he doesn't always want to have 3 big meals deal a day and would rather they had their own food. 
JOHN: (drops in) Do I have to close the door again? Do I have to close the door? (Ben's reply is - always) 

John hates it because they need a bit of fresh air in there; he claps 'we need to do something, eh? We need to do something.' (SC) He thinks that when he teases Ben at least it's funny (as he doesn't get serious like Nathan had) but knows Ben gets a bit upset about it. They all start yawning with fatigue or boredom but Ben decides it is important for them to have these debates and discussions. (Longer SC) Mario had said to BB he feels like he's losing his ability to have fun anymore. 

Ife and Nath keep cool in the pool so they don't have to wear their robot suits like a fool! Dave is there too and Nathan is communicating that he quit partying because his anger got the better of him; Ife tries to entice the sun to come out. Nathan thinks it is important to weather the storms of life so to speak for self-development - to learn from everything they do and how they can make themselves better. Mario is invited in to sun his bones now that he's left the nest (SC) so Bento can have Ben time. 

MARIO: Guys, lay off him a little bit. He's been attacked all morning. 

They say they will now as they've all said their piece and know where each other stand now but won't ever ever agree on it. Ife hollers out for Ben to come and put his feet in the pool. Dave can't always be so Desmond Tutu-y and expresses his love for Ben, being his friend but that he has to change; Ife edits that Ben doesn't have to but they'd like him to. They've come to accept that he won't because this is who he is and they'll have to do his share of everything for him in the house as long as he's there. 
TAKE YOUR PEANUT HEAD (James 32 video):

"Steve takes in a matinee performance of Big Brother Live. In this scene, John James is bored so goes to harass Robot Josie on the couch. What do you think, in the bird chirping does he ask her how to make beans on toast?" 

The clip starts out with John sat on a spiritless, Josie-bot with a hand held around her head. Then he gets up from his seat with a mischievous glint in his eye; Josie doesn't want him to go where's he's going with this.. yet his hands have a hankering for fooling around with her face! (SC) 

JOSIE: (not too fond of his high jinks when she's fed up) Do you know what, take your peanut head.. (he giggly rattles her pumpkin head) OWW, Johnnnnnnn!! (SC) 

The two are rumbling as they have a skirmish with their arms and John mimics the snorty grunts Josie had been making. Steve has a bit of a snigger as he and John assess that something was 'real close' it sounds like John had almost knocked off her sunglasses. (SC) He mickey-takes her lazy eye 'now, do you want something to eat?' 

JOSIE: No, I don't. Can't you see I'm getting too porky for my pants? 

JOHN: (through chuckles) Did you get those ones up? (she answers abruptly in the affirmative) Yeah. I might make some beans on toast then.
Josie asks what the time is; John doesn't know in fact, he has absolutely no idea. (Longer SC) He had gone into a room to see if anyone wanted anything to eat (another long SC) Caoimhe comes out from the Diary room and John and Josie make their way to the kitchen, checking if Steve wants white or brown bread. I'm tipping that Josie has been persuaded to make her lads some lunch. 

On going through the kitchen door, if you squint you might be able to spot Josie sticking her android ass out to purposely get in his way as he bangs into her. So he gives her backside a playful slap!

Haaha, loving the commentary. Steve was ever so dull wasn't he? How he got in the house I'll never know....” (KarenScott)

Your commentary is as good as the clip.” (Giwwy)


I love your humour James32, how many times I thought LF had frozen when the camera was on Steve.” (Kitkats)

Back to live feed

Steve stays behind to lie horizontally on the sofa; in the spa gnarly stories are swapped about South Africa being the country where the highest rate of murders and rapes are committed in the world. Mario can't comprehend why they have been selected to host that year's World Cup when it is such a scary place. Nathan would like to know the percentage of robberies that occur. 

(SC as Ife starts a story about a friend of hers that lived out there for 8 years. She's a singer and quite famous apparently) The electronic gates to her property had closed with 3 or 4 South Africans in the house, who had jumped through. (SC) 

Her friend hid with her baby, as did her husband - the son and girlfriend had a house off the house as it was a large mansion and they were loaded; a gun was held to her son's head. He is fine but they wanted to steal lots of stuff as they'd managed to get past all the doors and high security this rich family had. 

Nathan and Dave empathise somewhat as they do bad things because they aren't getting any help and there's that much poverty in townships. Ife is appalled that the Government aren't helping out; Nathan feels the South African Gov need to address the problems and get to the bottom of them to give them a way out, rather than just condemn them. 
Ife was told another story from the same woman who'd been driving along in her car and there was an 8 year old boy on the road (SC) who acted like he was hurt. So they get out to help him and men came to steal the car and drove off with the boy as it had all been a plan to rob them. 

In some places like Johannesburg they are very racist to white people because they'd been oppressed for so long; Mario wouldn't want to go there full stop. Nathan determines that Britain is despised by so many other countries because we'd built an empire on it and attacked and the people don't forget that. (SC when Raffles - the Gentlemen thief emerges from the hut. Ben has acquired this nickname from a comic as Nathan explains to Ife.) 

Ife and Dave do some press ups in the pool but it is easier in the water. Ife went to water aerobics a few times but it was full of old ladies so it wasn't that good; Dave jokes that he has the metabolism of an old lady. But he reckons he's lost at least a stone in the house. (ad break) 

Robots are reminded to wear their outfits for the entire duration of the challenge and HM's have been gathered for the next task. They suspect that this may be the last one; Josie has made hot beverages for the group and John burns his hand when he sets it down on the coffee table. Then he dutifully carries over Steve's to help out Josie; Baron asks Josie robotically 'can I have some sugar please, Mrs Robot?' 

JOSIE: (parodies this) You certainly can.. affirmative. Alright, love? (she then passes the spoon too at Steve's request, John laughs as she answers 'affirmative' again)

John doesn't really like something but isn't against it (chocolate biscuits/kissing in public?? Long SC) 'I'm just not a big fan of it really.' Mario slowly leans in to John's lips with a biscuit in his mouth, to see how near he can get before John moves away. John isn't phased at first but laughs that he didn't know what he'd have done if Mario had gotten closer. He and John chuckle at the Ifatron 3000 who struggles to see out of her robot window as she's too short. (SC)

Big Brobot announces that for the final battle one HM will take on Titan in a speed battle of egg white whisking and they must now choose who. 
JOHN: (volunteers) I'll do it but I'll be absolute arse at it! I've got no idea. I've never whisked..

Nathan yawps that you just tilt the bowl and essentially stir it; some of the HM's put forward Steve as he has big, old arms. Baron is happy to do whatever so Nathan dispenses his kitchen counsel believing that it will be a nightmare with only a whisk 'tilt the bowl, so you get the full mixture - not just half in, half out.'  

The klaxon blare indicates that their decision time is up and a HM is told to stand and state the name of the HM participating - Stevey boy agrees to step up to the plate. As Steve retrieves the task instructions to read aloud from the hatch, he realises they could make a meringue. 

JOSIE: Yeah, can you make a meringue for me Steve? 

Upon reading, Steve signals for them to wooooo on cue and they learn that Steve will have a standard egg whisker and Titan will have a Whisker Whisker Deluxe. He must attempt to stiffen the egg white in the fastest time and will have completed their attempt when it stiffens and peaks form. They have a time limit of 5 minutes to complete the challenge then Big Brobot will examine the egg whites and their decision is final. Nathan gives a word to the wise that he must get air in it as that makes the egg stand up. (Long SC) 

JOSIE: What's it called, Clash of the Titans? (SC) Who are you John, Sam Worthington? You gonna be Sam Worthington.  

JOHN: (doesn't care a butt load for him) Eh? I don't like him. I don't really like him really.. he was alright in Avatar but I don't really like him. 

Josie and Mario think he is gorgeous and that's the only reason Mario went to see the movie. His character plays Perseus - half man, half God. 

JOSIE: Yeah, he's beautiful.
John starts to talk about Sam Worthington living in Perth until a wretched (SC but yes John is correct IMBD tells me Sam was born in Godalming, Surrey and his family moved to Australia when he was 6 months old. They raised him in Warnbro  a suburb in Perth) Mario talks about how Sam Worthington only got into acting recently as he used to be a brick layer. 

JOSIE: (doesn't normally have the inclination to want meaningless sex but would make a special exception for Sam) I'm not into one night stands, but I will offer myself!! 

Mario and John continue discussing Sam Worthington and how he says he's Australian; John doesn't know why he would say that (as he's lived there since he was 10 or something - John is wrong according to my findings) 'I think Australia are trying to claim him.' 

JOSIE: (is it so stupid to think that she's sending huge hints to John here?) I'm going straight to Australia when I get out of here. Cos I like Russell Crowe, is he English? 

JOHN: Nuh, he's New Zealand. 

JOSIE: I love him. 

John likes Russell Crowe too 'maybe not so much these days but he was good in Gladiator.' (SC) HM's are confident in Steve's whisking capabilities and think he will do it before they all have to face Big Brobot later in the day. John reckons they'll send them all out to the garden and make them run from the Chaser car one more time before the end.  

IF ONLY they had gone directly to Australia after they left the house.. would everything have been different that way? The most popular decisions aren't always the right ones - so looking back, did they feel obligated into taking on all the media opportunities they did, to repay all their supporters? Maybe then the fairy tale wouldn't have disappeared.. they'd have still had all the same insecurities but felt none of the pressures and stresses, squeezing the life out of them.. That 'NO' word is pretty awesome if only they'd felt able to use it right at the start.. even before Jose was out of UBB John's management had scheduled him into a UK tour of PA's. 
Josie hasn't sucked her thumb for hours now (not even during the night, as far as she knows) but had gone for a little suck in the morning and was nearly sick in the garden. Her neck is also hurting too and the girl looks miserable in her outfit. Mario laughs when pointing out how all the other robot suits look so shiny and new but Josie's is crushed in and trampled. 

JOSIE: I don't look after anything that's always been my problem.. that's why I don't buy new clothes. 

(Ad break) Caoimhe the schemer, titillates that one of the men have been a naughty boy and fans herself with the task instruction laminate. Dave is enjoying the smell of one of Ife's creams that she gets from afro-Caribbean stores or from markets in Milton Keynes. Steve is called to the task room for his battle against the Bot and is cheered on by his comrades 'you can do it, put your arm into it!' Josie has Nathan and Ife listing areas of London which have these Caribbean restaurants, some are: Walthamstow, Hackney, Camden, Brixton, Shepherd's Bush. The one she had been to was near west London. 

STEVE: (as he enters the Robo room) Daddy's home, Big Boy! Daddy's home!! Daddy's home, big fella!

Titan whirs to life to silence the HM's and make it known that robots are in charge now. 

STEVE: No, you're not. Look at ya, big cry baby! 

TITAN: (As Marcus Bentley) Affirmative. 
STEVE: (boorishly bellows) Hahahaaaa, Big Daddy mate. Read it and weep, sunshine! (SC) 

As already blogged about in the HL's show, I'll just touch upon moments that were not shown on TV. Although Steve whisks aggressively Titan tries to taunt him with retorts such as: 'HM's your attempts are pathetic. You cannot win.' 

STEVE: (so loudly they could hear him in his hometown of Leicester) Yes I bl**dy well can, Big Boy! Yahooooooo, look at that big baby! See it!! Read it and weep, sunshine. 

He keeps repeating these same lines which he no doubt finds witty when actually they are sh*tty. Steve snickers sardonically that Titan is so funny when a quote of his is replayed by the robot. Nathan calls out that Titan is a loser when he knocks over his own bowl of egg white; Titan splashes Steve with remnants. The sequence is complete and Titan throws out a recording of Robert De Niro in the film Analyse this - 'you, you're good. You have a talent, yes you do.' 

'With the shopping budget at whisk, ahem, risk it's Steve who emerges from the battle scene victorious, 'beating' the robot.' Big Daddy EGGsits the room EGGscited to walk away the winner (and you hoped the egg puns would be over after the Humpty Dumpty task, didn't you??) :P He returns to a heroes welcome in the lounge area having EGGceeded HM's expectations; Ife had liked the way he extended his hand out to the spoilsport but Titan refused to shake Stevo's hand. (SC) 

It was suspected Steve would win because BB probably really did not want to dress Steve as a robot as it would severely impact his mobility. (it was impacting people who have legs as it was)

Steve was quite proud of his egg turning peaky but he'd had to keep nudging Titan away, who was nicking his stuff. (Long SC) Dave loves on Ben in the kitchen and tells him he's the best but it's gotta be said that some of his thinking is 'flipping way outside of my remit.' The Glory couldn't believe Ben wouldn't just do 10 sits ups and press ups for a man to have his Mars bar. Ben wouldn't but if one of his friends were upset or in trouble on the outside world, he would do anything for them. 
He considers it to be totally out of order that people are portraying him as disloyal when he is loyal to the people who mean most to him. Despite feeling he screwed up in the task last week (where Dave had to stand in for him with the army sergeant) but Dave should know that he would do anything for him. Benny finds it hurtful that people are now implying he's something that he doesn't believe he is. 

Dave is hurt that Caoimhe implied Ben had told her what they'd been talking about. Caoimhe had come to Ben really upset, implying that Dave had been judging her over the fact that she was anti-religion due to growing up in a Catholic country. Ben had defended Dave that this wasn't the case at all. 

Josie and John come into the kitchen and cut off their chat; Josie shows Ben some sign language which John guesses incorrectly. 

JOHN: (these words have a mean round house kick to them) What's that? You've got a fat arse? 

Josie bluntly snaps that it's not and continues signing away to Ben, who takes a shot in the dark that it is - 'I love you.' When it turns out to be 'Please can I have a sambuca?' (SC) She then flirts for John to 'move his balls' before she sends him an invite for 'robot sex' and he's only too happy to oblige. The rampant robot in her, humps him from the behind; John grins from ear to ear. 

(SC as the HM's are singing) John says that Josie can make a fried egg out of something if she wants but she tells him it'll be alright cracked. (SC) In her best Australian accent she informs him 'I've cooked enough eggs in my time.' John just hates it when that happens (SC) Josie lies on the table and Ben slaps her on the bum; he doesn't know what to do with himself. The E4 live feed finishes.

More from WHATM

Housemates are wandering around impersonating Titan and Ben is now blaming John for the washing up thing. Josie corrects him that it was actually Steve but Ben still blames John anyway. 
THEY'RE NOT EVEN BAD JOSE (James 32 video):

Ife asks John if he's had his teeth done, he hasn't but she and Josie don't believe him so Ife demands for John to give her a look. Will he show them? NOPE. (SC) He move aways from their scrutiny because they are not buying it (based on his excellently white ivories - did they not notice the slight crook in one of his front teeth? If he'd had cosmetic treatment on them, would he not have had that straightened out?) taking a literal stand that he has not

Robo Ifster can't understand why he won't admit it, probably as he reiterates because 'I haven't!' Josie declares that John's Mum used to be a dental nurse and bets he got it all done for free. 

JOHN: (categorically states) I didn't!! (giggling) She was a dental nurse before I was born. So unless I got 'em done in me Mama's womb, then I highly doubt it. I'm tipping, maybe just maybe my teeth might have grown out. 

Still unconvinced, Josie encourages John to explain what he has because she wants her own molars done. John questions why 'your teeth are fine' but she laments that they are not (SC) John tells her a plate would do something (fill the gap between her front teeth?) When Josie said to her ex that she wanted her gap closed he went mental at her. I don't know all the specifics about Josie's ex prior to John, but he sounds like a real 'winner(!) <--------- SARCASM #forclarity

JOHN: (this information has his guns blazing ) Why??

JOSIE: Because he said I won't be Josie if I have it done.
JOHN: (bucks her up over her buck teeth) Well, I don't think it looks bad.. but if you were worried about it, they could fix that easily.

For Jose it's not the fact that she's got a gap it's the fact that they are.. she can't even find the word but does an Esther Rantzen to illustrate that she finds them goofy and large. 

JOHN: They're not though, they're not. (SC)

She thinks they stick out and deplores that all her brothers have the most perfect teeth. Josie fancies that she should have the teeth of her brother who looks the most like her!

JOSIE: He's got amazing teeth and I should have had 'em. But because I suck my thumb, I messed it up for myself. 

JOHN: (salves her quiet fears) You can't.. you can't have everything. You can't suck your thumb all your life and then.. that's what they say it causes. But they're not even bad. They're not even bad, Jose. 

Ife intervenes from the bench to inquire if she's anywhere near the ashtray, she can't see to bend down so Josie directs her so that she can reach for it. Then she walks over to John requesting 'just explain it to me then, John' but the clip ends before he can.
"John loves everything about Josie bless him." (Giwwy) 

"I think John just wants the best for Josie and if she wants something done he will support her in that but he doesn't think she needs to change anything about herself cos he thinks she's PERFECT just they was she is.. and that's why we love him coz he love's Josie for who she is and who she was in the house so she doesn't need to change at all.." (HappyAM)

"Haha I love how John said 'you can't have everything' shows how highly he sees her." (Cazb1986)

Sometimes it was like John couldn't see any imperfections in Josie (physical or otherwise) because he was so deeply in love with her and her quirks probably just made him love her more. Yet in arguments, both would use aspects of their physical features that they knew full well would cut like a knife. Now she hasn't had to have work as her wisdom teeth came through and pushed it together (from what John said it sounded as though similar events took place in his mouth) or she may have ended up with Rylan veneers!!

Has Josie now altered her appearance so drastically for herself, for Luke or for all her detractors who have been abusively critical of how she looked during and after BB? I hope it is all because she wants it and not that she feels she needs to be a clone of other celebs to fit into that glossy and artificial world. My bottom line is - she was pretty and he was pretty the way they were.. not that they aren't now but I feel sad that they felt it was necessary to change dramatically.  

Ben and Caoimhe are still in the bedroom slagging off half of the house; Caoimhe wants to bitch about Dave - Ben has so far allowed her 60 seconds...Dave comes into the bedroom - Caoimhe shuts up - Ben says "I am just talking about upsetting John James." Dave has brought Caoimhe something to eat so she thanks him very much. 
YOU GOIN' FOR A SLEEP JOSE? (James 32 video):

'Josie has wandered into the living room while John James is trying to sleep and she kisses him with a Jaffa Cake in her mouth.' (SC) She pokes her tongue out so John can see what she did just for kicks and giggles, during the sticky smoochy time. 

JOHN: (chuckling) You dirty mare! (as she walks away) You goin' for a sleep, Jose? You gonna go for a lie down, Jose? 

Someone is hopeful that he can hop into bed with a particular pretty personoid but that Bot is too preoccupied with chasing her human counterparts around with her mouth full! (SC) 

CAOIMHE: (grossed out) That is disgusting! Get away from me Josie, with that! (runs to hide in the bathroom but is followed) 

Too impatient to wait, John is overheard asking 'what are we trying to understand?' as he takes to the bedroom, perceptibly disturbing a discussion of dissension (aka BITCHING) between Benny and Davo most likely. (SC) Josie finds herself hysterical as she rolls in the aisles raucously at her own reflection, she roams into the room of beds dancing around with her chocolate-covered canines! 

Ben isn't exactly having a heel-clicking good time with those who have barged in blackballed; Dave paraphrases that he's trying to get his head around something with Dave while Josie desecrates Ife in the background. (SC) John is dumbfounded at the choice Ben would make for the sake of 10 push ups and sit ups 'I could do 10 push ups in less than 10 seconds.' 

BEN: (not a rip does he giveth) Good.
JOHN: But you wouldn't be prepared to do that? (SC)  

Dave tries to expound upon Ben that they all signed up to do tasks in there and the clip finishes. "Josie really makes me laugh, if you can laugh at your self you can not be that bad, I love her to bits." (Kitkats) 

More WHATM

Hatch is now open for one human housemate to collect instructions... In the Arena of devastation HM's will have 3 minutes to defeat Bigger Brother and are given 1 hour to customise their mobile fightning machines. 

4.04pm, Ben says to John 'don't take it out on me if there are aspects of me that you don't like.' Ben appears to be saying he should be able to say and do whatever he likes and everyone else can sod off!!! John is trying to explain to Ben that the team thing isn't to avoid nominations it's to retain your self respect and all pull together as it's the only way.

5.03pm, Big Brobot reminds housemates that they shouldn't communicate with the outside world via robot customisation.

5.19pm, Mario offers to show Josie his penis but wants to see her boobs first.

5.28pm, John & Josie are in the bathroom. GO AND GET A FOOTBALL KIT ON (James 32 video):
JOSIE: (mock shock) You're joking? 

JOHN: What? 

JOSIE: (can we not squee about that?) You love me in a 'mack Daddy swerve' way? (he turns away cracking up shyly) You are having.. 

JOHN: 'You are 'avin a laff!

JOSIE: You are 'aving a laff, in't you? 

JOHN: (being a complete idiot but a very cute one) You are 'aving a laff. Stoppp itttt. 

JOSIE: (brushes her hair, exuding confidence) Go and get a football kit on, you might be in with a chance. 

JOHN: (still plenty swoony) Put your robo.. put your robo cop gear on, we might have something going. (walks out of the bathroom with a deep sigh and Josie laughs)  

Love doesn't always make sense, does it? What those two had is what I one day hope to find.. this carefree, banter that comes with ease.. that connection of hearts, minds and spirits.. damn it, they were cute as crap! I don't want perfect and goodness knows those 2 were NOT but everyday isn't going to be all butterflies and roses. And John was bound to be bowled over by Josie in that suit because he adored her with all of his soul.
"Wonder what it was about the robot outfit that John loved so much." (Giwwy)

"Aw that must have taken a lot of guts. James this is so great... I wish we had more of this convo.." (lambbah)

...and notice when Josie asked him that, he never said no :P" (Cazb1986)

"John thought he was going that night so maybe he was trying to drop hints to Josie that he was interested in her, but as usual she was oblivious." (Jackie McGlynn)

"I really want to know what John loved so much about that Robot Costume because Josie HATED it!!! John seems like he could be a bit kinky to me lol." (Jaideybaby)

"I think the robot was a bit like separation day, we all know how he liked to be touching Josie and he couldn't properly while she was wearing this outfit. I don't think he realised himself how much he needed to be close to her until this. His feelings for her grew stronger and they had some pretty hot conversations while she was wearing it, so yes it did turn him on in a kind of look but can't touch sort of way." (gettinangry)

"I dont think John had said about the Mac Daddy Swerve, I think it was just Josie mucking around but Johns response about liking her in the robot outfit was obviously true because he'd mentioned it a few times. Josie will have to invest in a cardboard box and a roll of foil!!!" (LyndeeDavo) 

John, Mario & Dave all lie in a row on one of the beds. Mario rolls over and spoons John.

5.39pm, Dave thinks Caoimhe can dish it out but wonders if she can take it. John thinks she can and that she'll be full steam ahead once she gets over the boyfriend and Shabby issues.
BBLB - 

Former Blue Peter daredevil Zoe Salmon and co-star in Russell Brand's 'Get him to the Greek' thought Josie did very well collecting 21 pairs of shoes in the task, without even taking the rubbish out of the bin liner. It was an impressive effort but a pity that it had leaked and she was caught out when John joined forces with her. George felt Josie was making a lot of noise rustling while Nathan slept during this massive window of opportunity. 

Zoe calls Ife and John the most competitive female and male HM's retrospectively but also considers them to be the most 'stupid competitive.' She cites as an example how John failed the stay on TV task as he didn't want to nominate a friend but then went on to say in the Diary room, he'd have picked Corin. 

GEORGE: Do you not think it's just stupid, full stop? 

She agrees especially in that one specific situation; Ben is her male favourite in the house and she's rooting for him to win. As what he lacks in enthusiasm in tasks, he more than makes up for in intelligence in a house full of dimwits like JJ. Ruuuuuude. After a montage of white lies told in tasks is played, Zoe's favourite is Josie pretending she'd had an accident in her panties! 

Emma speaks to Dave's wife Donna on the phone as it is her and Dave's 18th wedding anniversary. They show a photo of them on their happy day and Dave had longer hair when they first met; Donna doesn't think his new hair is a good look so will make him grow it back. She and the kids are missing Dave but are really proud of him. Comedian David Schneider wants Nathan to go 'where's the romance with Nathan?'  

EMMA: Keep JJ in there for juice with Josie! 
6.43pm, Mario wants to know if they (Mario and John) can have a kiss under the covers tonight, John says no and Josie asks why.. John hesitates. Mario likes the way John is thinking about it...... 'I have a few hours to work on him....

NATHAN: Can I have a kiss? I told you - it is either me or him. 

MARIO: John, I need to know now because if you say no I can still get one from Nathan.

6.56pm, "This is Big Bro Bot, would all housemates gather on the sofas in the living room." Ben is going to commit a rather savage murder on John for crimes against humanity. 

7.12pm, Out to the garden for the task. Titan is talking in Prince Charles voice, now we've got sound cuts. Titan playing music now; Mario and Josie swaying in time. Titan appears to be crying - or at least squirting water from it's eyes soaking Ife! Titan wakes up - Marcus Bentley's voice plays into the House: 'Silence Housemates, robots are in control now.' LMAO at Titan doing impressions of the HMs, JJs was the funniest. 

BIGGER BROBOT TASK (James 32 video):

Titan is playing impressions of the HM's making everybody fall apart laughing; Ife's is her saying she's not someone who is a boaster at all. Little Brother is sent out to fix the broken enemy robot in a robot disguise (costume and red lycra suit) he receives cheers from the HM's. Nathan shouts out that he has a nice ass and Dave snickers that he's wearing the red jumpsuit 'I've had to wear that a few times!' 

JOHN: Eyyyyyyyyyyy!!! Been told to ignore us, have you? YAYYYY! 

Mario wonders if that man could be their new HM and has obvious suspicions that the flipper will try to flip them over (the clue is in the name!!) 
BIG BROBOT: (very 'professional' broadcasting) This is Big Brother's Bigger Brother, would Little Brother return and do the safety thing?

He comes back to carry out his very 'technical' commands and gets giggles and wolf whistles from the group. (SC) Mario, the sex maniac is gutted at speculations that Little Brother was a girl (couldn't be!) and Dave and the battlers are judging up the arena of destruction to formulate some sort of battle plan. 

JOHN: I think I'm just gonna ram him. 

MARIO: (whiney) Titan don't I get a quote? 

JOHN: (scoffs at his own words repeated back to him through Ironman) 'Sit there like a stunned mullet!!' Who says that on TV? 

Sometimes Josie thinks Titan is really nice and others he scares the living daylights out of her. Dave yells out to see if Big Boy is looking foward to their curry later (as his treat in celebration of his 18th wedding anniversary) and then tells 'Keith' as they have lovingly named Titan that he's changed. 

NATHAN: You're a berk, Keith. 

MARIO: (sure he's making a smart remark) I remember when you were dating C3PO. 

Right after his prompting, Titan blasts out one of Mario's paltry pearls about him being a grower not a shower (during a conversation he had with Nathan about their units!) 
DAVE: There's something about you, Keith. 

Caoimhe declares that the big metal head is actually quite sexy, she'd take him home any day. (SC while Ben whistles and sings)

BB: The battle will begin on the sound of the .. (*aeroplane noise*) 

When the sound returns the robot wars are already under way, John is ululating for someone to tip him back over and for Caoimhe to save him. 

JOSIE: No, cos that's what he's meant to do. 

Dave's isn't moving and Corin recommends for Mario to try and stay away from the demon who is destroying them all completely. In typical robot wars tradition the flipper is erratic and unresponsive. (SC)

JOHN: (perturbed) Save me Mario before he gets me. Save me Big Daddy, try and tip me over. Reverse!

Josie's spectatorship leads her to form the conclusion that Mario actually has the best one there. John's still can't get up so he booooooos at Bigger Brother for coming after him, sirens sound as the casualty count toll rises. The drivers keep bickering for each other to stay out of their own way and to stop hitting their cars. This is where John's car is flipped through the air and Titan kicks his vehicle on the ground where it has landed. 

Dave and Ife say for him to pick it back up and place it in the ring but he doesn't think he's allowed to. Big Brobot then announces that John James should cease moving his machine; they gasp at the horrors committed in front of them. Mario can't believe his went down the hole; Corin screams the most throughout the mass destruction and hates it. 
After the klaxon calls, Titan highly praises Bigger Brother 'you've got it down, yes you have' and Big Brother is back to inform them that have failed this week's shopping task. Corin shriekssssssssssssssssssssssssss and complains 'how crap! That was well hard!' Steve didn't think they stood any chance against it; Caoimhe really needs a cigarette and BB calls for HM's to remain on the bench for Health and Safety reasons, so John sits beside Josie. 

Big Brother's Little Brother comes out again to immobilise Bigger Brother; Dave shouts over to him that he's horrible 'I knew you couldn't be trusted!' Nathan thanks the pal and wants a go on Dave's God squad; they all realise that Little Brother was a guy after all.  

CORIN: (with a blank ape-like expression) Was that the real thing that was on the telly? Jesus, that could kill me, that! 

IFE: It were proper violent. 

The Glory's was the only car to survive in terms of remaining in the arena of destruction. As on the HL's Titan checks he is still going on a date with Titan and they blow kisses back and forth. Titan quotes in a posh toff accent 'I say Sebastian, fancy seeing you here. Must dash, tatty bye.' but I haven't the foggiest where this originates from.

HM's awwww when they are told to go into the kitchen and stand by the window to view Titan's final goodbye. They say see you later to Keith and wish their brother all the best as he blows more kissies to them. 

TITAN: (Arnie style) Hasta la vista, baby. Titan will be back. (shuts down)

Comes to life one last time for HM's to wear him off and he serenades them farewell in an approximately 2 minute long SC; Ben is wearing Josie like a necklace as he squishes and kisses her.  

7.35pm, Mario says that the whole thing was worth it to spend 2 days with Titan. Josie notices someone has stuck a knife in the table. Caoimhe suggests that it happened during the arts & crafts.
