Week 13

BLOG: The last supper

Putting aside their differences (and boy have there been a few of those between this little lot!) the five remaining housemates sat down to their last ever Big Brother dinner last night. The group proceeded to show their softer sides during a round of speeches reminiscent of the Oscars.

Rex told HMs he's become a fan of the show from the inside, and feels closer to his HMs than many of his friends on the outside.

Rachel told the group: "We've all got a bond. We've all got a connection. I missed my family a lot, but I found another family here. Thank you for a brilliant 13 weeks."

Then it was Mikey's turn. "When I was in primary three a teacher wrote 'Mikey would be good as a circus clown'. And you don't' get a bigger circus than Big Brother. Obviously Rex and me have had our differences. I respect that everyone voted him to be in here. I've definitely seen a different side of him. I didn't come in here to make friends. Friends take 20, 30 years. That's why I'm surprised I made a friend like Rachel."

Sara revealed: "You have no idea how much I've bonded with you, with a little one-on-one action as well." Oh-er...

Meanwhile the person we can only assume she was talking about, Darnell, had this to say: "Being with you guys brought out every emotion in me. On the outside, all I felt was pity for myself. All I really wanted to get out of it was reassurance. Man I got nothing but love for y'all man!"

Aw, man, we're going to cry!

It's the final countdown

As the housemates cruise towards what bookies say will be the closest Big Brother final ever, it's still anyone's race.

Having been told they are now all into Friday's final, a humbled Rex told HMs:

"I'm amazed. It's absolutely amazing that people have picked up the phone and voted for us. They spend their own money. I feel so amazed. It makes me feel like everything I've done here has been worthwhile."

Darnell later admitted to Rex he couldn't believe they were in the final because they were both "f***heads". Rex couldn't help but agree, adding it proved the public preferred housemates who "don't smell of roses".

In other news, the gang were treated to a screening of one episode of Big Brother, after they passed their rap task.

"Now listen very carefully, to this Mikey philosophy. House full of cookie love, house full of baddie bees."

The group chose to watch Day 55, when the house took part in the Cops and Robbers task, and they laughed, clapped, and cheered with delight as they watched themselves on the giant plasma screen.

Axe falls on Kat and Mo

The two least popular housemates left in the Big Brother house were last night axed in a shock eviction. The sudden news left HMs reeling, and as Mo's name was read out, he responded with desperate cries of "No! No!" The toy demonstrator later admitted to Davina that he was totally not expecting it.

The show then descended into chaos as it was announced that former favourite Kat was the 13th person to be evicted. The housemates began sobbing, and a shell-shocked Rex paced around with his head in his hands. Predictably Rachel and Sara sobbed uncontrollably as they took turns to hug their tearful pal. A devastated Kat left the house to chorus of boos.

"Say 'Happy House' on me," she cried as she trundled up the stairs.

Once the shock had subsided, the remaining five housemates began to digest the news that they had all made it into the final. After 90 days of doubting himself, Darnell told best pal Rex he didn't care if he won the prize money or not - because all that mattered was that he was popular outside the house.

"People must like me. I don't even need no money, dude."

Just three days to go now, but who will be the ultimate winner? Stay tuned for updates as they happen...

It's all cooking off

Chef Rex got to prove his culinary skills after being elected as Head Chef in a Big Brother Cook-off last night. As part of the task he had to show the other housemates how to cook Steak Béarnaise and a blueberry soufflé. Kat and Darnell managed to burn their herb and vinegar reduction for the Béarnaise sauce, and also produced a potato mash that Rex said tasted "like it's got foreign objects in there". Things didn't go much better for Mikey and Rachel either, as their attempt was branded "a little bit sloppy". Mo and Sara were the clear winners, impressing their harsh critic.

"Without a shadow of a doubt, I'm actually very impressed with Sara and Mo's meal. They followed my instructions carefully and added their own flare. Outstanding food I would say. There was no competition there. Honestly guys, that was really, really good."

Rex wasn't so impressed with the fact that sworn enemy Rachel had nominated him. Dredging up the events of last week, he blasted the grape fan about her choice. Rachel was unrepentant however.

"I nominated you because of the way you were with Nicole, for the way you treated people, the way you treated me."

Rex later admitted he had found it hard with Nicole being in the house. "If anything I thought it was a good thing that Nicole went, because she didn't want to be here. You try having your partner in here, sticking up for her, and sticking up for yourself. It wasn't very easy."

Despite the fighting, Rachel admitted to HMs that she didn't want to leave the Big Brother house... ever...

"You watch... we are all not going to want to go."

Will Rachel get her wish and manage to survive tonight's surprise double eviction? Keep your eyes peeled...

It's the final countdown!

With five days to go, talk in the Big Brother house is centred on just one thing – who will win the £100,000 prize. Bookies are suggesting Mikey will reign supreme, but Darnell has other ideas. Speaking to Big Brother about who he wants to win the show, he said of pals Rex and Mohamed:

"They're the most well-rounded housemates, they've had ups they've had downs... they can do every human emotion because they're regular humans. They've done everything'."

The rapper later ripped into former friend Kat, telling her he hoped she would be evicted first this week, causing the cookie monster to break down in tears. He then blasted her again for getting upset!

"Oh my god, get over yourself. I f****** hate this s*** man. Please don't talk to me Kat. Whatever I say I'm gonna look like an a******. We don't have to be friends. You just do you and I'll do me. Get the f*** away from me!"

Kat's day had started on a slightly more positive note, after she and Sara had been given the task of cooking a Sunday roast for the other housemates, who had all had their Head of House status reinstated for the day. Despite her lowly servant status, Kat jumped for joy at the news saying she was looking forward to cooking for the team again.

Are Darnell's predictions correct? With a surprise double eviction planned for Tuesday night, it won't be long until we find out who the two least popular housemates are. Watch this space...

Lisa's out

What a whirlwind week for bodybuilder Lisa! First her man Mario proposed to her live on-air. Then she won £25,000. And now she's the last nominated housemate to leave the Big Brother house. The eviction battle between Lisa and pal Sara was the closest one of the season yet, with only a handful of votes between them.

One week to go... and tensions are fraying

Big Brother certainly opened a can of worms when they allowed the housemates to discuss nominations! In the most recent twist, Darnell turned on pal Kat, because he was annoyed that Rachel felt she had to apologise to the cookie monster after nominating Rex – a revelation which had prompted a furious response from the Thai masseuse.

"I'm sad I talked to you. You didn't help me and I didn't want to talk about that. I don't find it my fault at all. I never influenced Rachel, ever," Kat cried, before storming off.

Mikey also launched yet another blistering attack on Rex, accusing of him of being a vile bully.

"You're a classic bully Rex - you don't even know you're doing it, you're just like Alex."

Ouch! That's gotta hurt.

Meanwhile, Mo has been doing some bitching of his own, moaning about Sara's £25,000 windfall, and saying she was the last housemate he wanted to win the money.

"I didn't want Sara to win the money. I could have done with that £25,000."

At least Darnell and Sara seem to be on friendly terms again. Last night the pair had an intimate chat about relationships, and Darnell admitted he had a girl (known only as Vanessa) waiting for him on the 'outside'. Despite telling Kat he had lied about having a girlfriend, he revealed:

"We started talking just before I came in and she said she was interested and basically she's on for the ride and she's not getting off. She's so amazing to me, yeah, amazing. It's too good to be true, even my mother says she's out of my league."
