Big Brother UK 2018 - Episode 13 - War of the Lewis's

The two Lewis's lock horns as we head into eviction number 2, and the house will be a Lewis short when Mr F or Mr G will be shown the door. In other news the shopping task will come to a close today, and we will find out if it's Luxury or Basic. Should be very egg-citing.

Usual whoop whoops from the crowd, and Emma welcomes us in to another 90 minute feast of fun

Mixed reaction from the mob for Lewis F, while Lewis G gets more than his fair share of boos as Emma reads out the numbers.

We pick up the house action for the second day of the shopping task, and another day for the chickens

Four big chickens are spotted in the garden, and then the subject of discussion turns to Akeem via Cameron and Isaac. Don't know what's gone on in there to warrant this venom towards Akeem. Meanwhile Lewis G is trying really hard, and failing, to be funny in the garden.

An egg vending machine has been put in the house, 500 eggs to be precise are in said machine and 128 chickens are in there. Some housemates will have to sacrifice some coins to get the eggs out of the machine.

Zoe says she is saving her coins for a letter from home, is she so certain she will actually get that far as there is plenty of time left in this series. But then we find out she is going to give 50 coins over anyway, while Akeem is going to give 100 and everyone else 25 coins, bringing the total to 400. Tomasz doing what he does best as in just sitting there doing nothing.

In the garden, Zoe starts crying as she is missing her kid. You made the choice to go in there, nobody else.

Isaac still having a go at Akeem, seriously what is Isaac's problem....Answers on a postcard please

The leaderboard kerching pipes up and 3 chickens are shown, which causes Cameron to start whining. Think we may have a new Bellend of the Week recipient if Lewis G ends up going later on.

Brooke explains to Big Brother about the Lewis's having some sort of rivalry, and the only way to resolve it is to have one of them leave. My sentiments exactly, Brooke, let's send Lewis G on his way as why should he have all the fun with my Bellend of the Week award. Brooke says Lewis F should be saved, as there are 1,000 people out there like Lewis G.

More whining from Cameron about food, this time over rice and cauliflowers. Give it a break, pal, you are getting very boring. A little while later, he's still going on and on like Ariston, now at Akeem. Someone please take his batteries out.

Up next, and thankfully away from Cameron I might add, Big Brother calls one housemate to the diary room for a secret task. Conveniently Tomasz happens to be close by, so off he goes. His mission is to help the housemates or help himself. . Basically on one side of the room chickens will appear which will help the housemates pass the task, and on the other side he can take some coins for himself to add to his overall total. If he chooses the coins, he has to correctly estimate the number of coins. Of course he chooses the coins, this guy's mask keeps slipping at a rate of knots. As if by magic, he guesses 89 coins and is spot on.

Meanwhile Lewis F and Kay are gazing up to the sky comparing cloud patterns, and then Tomasz tells the biggest house snitch in there about his secret mission. Well done for keeping that to yourself, Tomasz, I think not. Rookie mistake telling Cameron, first sign of an argument and that will be all over the house. Cameron is very forgiving for Tomasz, as he would have kicked off at Akeem or someone else if they had done what Tomasz did. Cameron and Tomasz moving very quickly towards the top of the eviction hit list.

Task over as Big Brother have gathered them at the dining table and give them a few minutes to come up with a total number of chickens. In case you missed it, they can be within a margin of 35. Akeem says 1,250. The actual number is 1,196. Shopping task FAILED and it will be basic budget. £2.50 per person per day.

More crappy rapping from Lewis G, hopefully no more of this after this episode. Meanwhile back with Cameron, and look at that Cameron whining yet again. 

Isaac is hoping Lewis G will stay. Um, no thanks. Let the house breathe by him being let go. Meanwhile, in the bathroom the new BBUK obsession as in twerking is taking place with Kenaley and Sian. Cian wonders how to actually twerk, and Sian is more than happy to demonstrate

Cameron's predicting Lewis G won't go, and then goes off on another whine. He talks about some of them taking things too seriously, pot meet kettle Cameron.

Emma announces the viewers poll, in which it will be double trouble this week with TWO housemates being put on the block by the public, the Veto competition returns, and also teases the next shopping task where housemates 'will go to China'. More on that when it actually starts.

Eviction

Into the studio Emma goes, but some of the mob can still be heard chanting to which the housemates unfortunately hear. She says Lewis......and calls a break. This didn't go down too well on social media and forums as there had only been a break 5 minutes before.

She goes back to the house, and 2nd evicted is LEWIS G.....Hallelujah!!!!!!

Worth noting, Lewis G was so sure he was staying as he didn't even bother to put a shirt on under his jacket.

In his interview with Emma, he still acts like a total bellend. Going to keep this short as he is not even taking this interview seriously. He donates his coins to Isaac, who now takes over at the top of the coin leaderboard

In closing, thank god he has gone and there is going to be a new bellend of the week award and this time it goes to CAMERON

Final thoughts

The right Lewis went and it will NOT be boring. The house can breathe at long last, and it will be interesting to see the dynamic now. Looking forward to seeing who will be the two least favourites will be this week, obviously done as last week went a bit wrong when Kenaley used the Veto on Isaac and rendered the people's vote totally pointless. As for Tomasz, sort of hoping he is up on the block but he will somehow survive. The guy is a snake and a sneak, and his downfall is starting.

Big Brother USA 2018 - Finale

Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to the Big Brother USA finale where Kaycee, Tyler or JC will compete for the $500,000 grand prize

We will also see one more member of the jury when one of the above 3 will take the last spot, and then it's eyes down for their votes to determine who will emerge champion

So without further ado, let's get underway for the last time in this season

We pick up the action from the end of the season review episode, and the first part of the final HoH is underway

Final HoH

This competition is called Jet Pack Attack and it's endurance. Whoever holds on the longest wins HoH Part 1 and goes on to Part 3, while the other two play off in HoH part 2 to face the winner of Part 1. Whoever wins Part 3, is the final HoH of the season.

Kaycee and Tyler came up with a plan with Tyler throwing part 1, and Kaycee winning part 1 and then Tyler winning part 2

JC lasts about 50 odd minutes before becoming the first to fall from his jetpack, but the plan above does not come to fruition as Kaycee falls before Tyler

So it will Tyler advancing to part 3, and it will be Kaycee v JC in part 2 to see who takes on Tyler in part 3

Straight onto part 2 we go, and the game is called Mount Evictus. JC and Kaycee will be given clues to various parts of this season, and they must place the correct 4 houseguests names in the slots provided. But to do that they must climb the wall, and if they are correct the laser will carve the houseguests faces onto Mount Evictus, however if they are wrong the laser will short circuit and keep doing so until they are correct. The fastest houseguest will go on to face Tyler in part 3.

And facing Tyler will be facing KAYCEE, as she was much faster than JC, with a time of 18:55 while JC finished with a time of 19.34

Part 3 a little later, but first.....

Off to the jury house

Talking to the jury this year will be season 2 winner Dr. Will Kirby, and Angela is revealed to be joining the jury. She immediately tells them JC won the HoH that got her evicted, to much excitement from the rest of the jury. She then goes on to say that there was a Level 6 alliance that resulted in most of the jury's evictions. Angie stupidly says JC was running things in there. Seriously?.....

Final HoH Part 3

The final part of this competition is called Odd Casts and here is how it works. 8 rounds and a video containing ex housemate's information will play in each round. Whoever scores highest will be the final HoH of this season. In the event of a tie there will be a tiebreaker. 

Round 1: 1-1

Round 2: 2-2

Round 3: 3-3

Round 4: 4-4

Round 5: 5-5

Round 6: 6-6

Round 7: 6-6

Round 8: 6-6

Tie breaker question - How many seconds did Kaycee stay in the Jet Pack competition

Answer - 3,413 seconds

Kaycee not too far out with 3,400, and Tyler answered 2,002

So the final HoH honour of the season goes to KAYCEE

And to no surprise, finishing in 3rd place and taking the final place on the jury is JC....Making a final two of Tyler and Kaycee

In his exit interview, JC couldn't or wouldn't say if Kaycee had made a mistake not taking him to final 2, and he admits his loyalty to Tyler was his ultimate downfall

Next up, we have the full jury already out there, instead of doing the walk ons like in previous series. 

In case you missed it, the full jury is:

Sam, Angela, Brett, Angie, JC, Bayleigh, Haleigh, Faysal and Scottie....The power is in their hands to decide this year's winner, although I would not trust Angie with a tin of sardines that weren't already half open

Customary questions from them as Kaycee and Tyler each present their cases on why they should get the grand prize. Tyler reveals his Cloud App to everyone on the jury who didn't know.

Voting now underway as each of the jury insert keys into the round table and lock in their vote

Before we find out the result, we get to see those housemates who were evicted before jury, and Julie talks about the various showmances as in Tyler and Angela, Faysal and Haleigh, and Chris and Bayleigh. This prompts Chris to go over to Bayleigh, and he asks her to marry him. Awkward with a capital A, and not to mention stealing the winner's spotlight. She could hardly say no on live television, but it would have been fun if she had said no.

Anyways, back to the serious business of finding out the winner, take it away Julie.....

JC votes Tyler

Angela votes Tyler 

Sam votes Kaycee

Brett votes Tyler

Haleigh votes Tyler

Scottie votes Kaycee

Faysal votes Kaycee

Angie votes Kaycee

Bayleigh votes Kaycee

Winner and the next BB USA winner is KAYCEE!!!!!! 

She picks up a cheque for $500,000, while Tyler picks up $50,000

And to round out this year's proceedings TYLER wins America's Favourite Player, collecting an extra $25,000 taking his total winnings to $75,000

THE END

FINAL final thoughts

An excellent season with much more gameplay than last season, Level 6 swept all before them culminating in their one two final 2. Well done to Kaycee, not often I get the winner right but this time I did, go me!!!!!!

Big Brother UK 2018 - Episode 12 - Clucking Bell, Kenaley Strikes Back

Experimented with video recaps of episodes 10 and 11 in case people are wondering they are, and they can be found here and here

We move into the shopping task episode, and it truly is a blast from the past as the chickens return. 

For those who don't know the chickens were a staple of the show from about series 1 to series 3, whether they will stay after this shopping task remains to be seen.

The story so far is that Kenaley won the Veto competition, and used it on Isaac for some strange reason, so it will be Lewis F and Lewis G who will face the public vote.

So without any further ado, let's get the lights on and get this shopping task started.....

The sound of chickens can be heard far and wide as the housemates wake to chickens, chickens and more chickens

Cameron and Kay are particularly vocal as they have an aversion to chickens, poor them....not

Cian is asked by Big Brother if he is feeling clucky today (badoom tish) as they instruct him to take the instructions for the shopping task

They must count the number of chickens that appear in the house and must be within a margin of error of 35, so that means they must be within 35 to pass the task. They must keep a running total of how many chickens that appear. At random intervals housemates will be 'plucked' away to do individual or group tasks. No Fowl play permitted and good cluck.

Brooke is concerned about a chat she had with Kay in which Kay told her, Brooke was the housemate she was most attracted to. Sian and Cian having a similar conversation about the same two people. Reminds me so much of BB11 when Shabby had a crush on Keeva.

Akeem is counting chickens and putting some effort into this task, while Tomasz has strangely turned against Akeem and starts planting seeds in Zoe's head. At least Akeem is trying to win this task, Tomasz, unlike you just sitting around doing nothing as usual. Bet Tomasz will be the first one to complain if they fail the shopping task, if he had the chance he would blame Akeem for the common cold.

Continuing with the shopping task, the plasma switches on and Akeem doing his bit for this task counting the number of chickens that appear on the screen, and Cian now doing his bit. Cameron is lurking in the background, whether he is counting along as well is anybody's guess.

Back to Akeem counting the chickens around the picture. Isaac complaining Akeem is shouting too loud in terms of counting. At least he's trying, Isaac, maybe you could be doing something to help as well. 

Sun soaking now, with Lewis G and Isaac and still Lewis G is very confident he will be staying by saying Lewis F won't be needing oil for much longer. Tomasz doing what he does best in the bedroom, as in laying on his stomach doing absolutely nothing.

Lewis F and Brooke are talking about Chinese burns, and he does one to Brooke. Not maliciously I might add, before people start wondering.

Cameron is talking about his fear of chickens to Big Brother, and a toy one pops up from behind the Diary Room chair. It takes a while for Cameron to notice, but when he does he jumps a few feet in the air, and that's not all. Once he leaves the Diary Room, there is someone sitting in a chicken costume, and Cameron refuses to move. It's only someone in a costume, Cameron, just walk past it.

Next up, Lewis G and Zoe have to don outfits and go outside into the chicken pen whilst covered in seeds and be pecked while counting the chickens in the pen with them, while in the bedroom the eviction and Lewis G's constant the only Lewis in the house comment is playing on Lewis F's mind

Back to the hen pecking, lots of screaming and yelling before Zoe and Lewis G settle on 45 chickens.

Nice easy task for Tomasz as in having singing a song at Glast'hen'bury, he has to count the number of chickens which is a total of 45, and also 3 more on his song sheets. Needless to say he is absolutely awful.....Moving swiftly on.

Lewis F discussion in the garden, and Tomasz and Isaac encourage Lewis G to wind Lewis F up. And people still think Tomasz is so lovable, they're having a laugh. Lewis G takes Lewis F's Weetabix, Lewis G then keeps on deliberately singing badly to wind up people. Sooner this bellend Lewis G is out, the better for everybody. Tomasz as usual laying on his bed and admiring his handiwork

Next part of the shopping task involves Cian, Kay and Brooke. To cut a long story short they have to count the number of hens they see as part of 'Hen things I hate about you'

Isaac says he's never defending Lewis G again. You and Tomasz put him up to stealing the Weetabix, Isaac. At least man up and admit the truth about that. Lewis G claims Lewis F has no malice against him, well we know that part of things is false as he is creating malice all over the house. I'm not one for booing from the crowd, but he does really deserve the full treatment.

Meanwhile, Kenaley is absolutely screaming at Lewis G while Cian, Kay and Brooke are still counting chickens elsewhere in the house. Back to Kenaley, and she is giving Lewis G the full hairdryer now. Lewis G still acting like a bellend and not taking things at all seriously.

Cameron basically keeps on encouraging him to be the wind up merchant that he is, while Kenaley is glad she spoke her mind to Lewis G. Oh boy if only she could only see in the bedroom right now, none of it has sunk in.

To be continued in Episode 13, Eviction number 2

Final thoughts

Voters, PLEASE do not get complacent thinking Lewis F will be automatically and stop voting. Lewis G must leave the house to retain the sanity of the housemates and some of the viewers. Use your vote wisely and get him out of that door. Public service announcement over, and may I say I am loving the chickens being back and really hope they stay in there after the shopping task is over. Tomasz, meanwhile, his mask is slipping fast and I really hope they in there can see it's him stirring the pot and get him on that block.

Thanks for reading if you have made it this far and please keep the RT's, likes, shares and comments coming in. All very much appreciated, and my thanks to anyone who have looked at the video recaps. May try that again one day, as I thoroughly enjoyed myself doing those.

Big Brother 19 UK - Episode 9 - The Great Non-Escape

Nominations day is upon the housemates, but with a difference. No it's not what you think as in them interfering, as one housemate has been secretly nominated by the public as least favourite housemate, and also there is the Gamechanger to play, or as some more commonly know it, Power of Veto

Slightly different rules here though, as it will be whoever is leading the coin leaderboard and the three nominees, and whoever is leading the leaderboard will choose the 2 others to play. So it will still be six playing, just slightly different rules in the UK version

Back to the show and it's lights on for nominations day

Another tip of the hat to Big Brother USA and Canada, as in instead of Big Brother announcing it's Nominations Day, they put up on the plasma in the bedroom and indeed every plasma in the house

Discussion is about various foods in the kitchen, and Lewis G is still trying to crack on to Kay, and he is really getting it into his head he is in with a chance. Cian thinks Isaac and Lewis G are feeding off each other.

Zoe says she has a nervous derriere as it's nominations, while Tomasz points out it's going to be much different to coins.

Nominations

Straight to nominations we go, and Trevor Boris from Big Brother Canada reads out the usual rules for nominations, and off we go.....

Akeem nominates LEWIS G and LEWIS F

Brooke nominates LEWIS G and LEWIS F

Cameron nominates KAY and KENALEY

Cian nominates LEWIS G and ISAAC

Isaac nominates LEWIS F and KENALEY

Lewis G starts playing up as usual, only funny on planet Lewis G while everyone else is wishing they were somewhere else right now as in a different room to him.

Back to nominations.....

Lewis G eyes up Kay as she is summoned to the Diary Room and says she is a 'proper bird'

Kay nominates ISAAC and CAMERON

Kenaley nominates LEWIS G and LEWIS F

Lewis F nominates ISAAC and LEWIS G

Lewis G nominates LEWIS F and KENALEY

Sian nominates LEWIS G and TOMASZ

Yet again, the usual bellend as in Lewis G starts on one of his look at me I'm funny me, and only Kay seems to be laughing. Isaac is even cheesed off now, and said if this was happening on the outside Lewis G would have got a slap. Kenaley now starts telling Lewis G off as well.

Tomasz nominates LEWIS G and LEWIS F

Zoe nominates LEWIS G and SIAN

Facing the public vote so far is LEWIS G, LEWIS F and through the viewers poll ISAAC. But of course with the Gamechanger coming into play, nobody will be safe.

Back to house action, and Isaac speaks to Big Brother about Lewis G. He says he regrets saying he would give him a slap, and Big Brother reminds him of the rules about aggressive behaviour. Kay apologises to Lewis F about giggling along with Lewis G, but Lewis F doesn't take the apology well.

Another person for Lewis F to complain about soon no doubt, why did he go into this house. Why doesn't he try and settle his kettle and just enjoy the experience, the guy is getting seriously boring.

Kay is feeling emotional, and says she doesn't want the cameras to see her. There are cameras all over the place or hasn't she noticed given what show she is in. Meanwhile, Lewis G is explaining he got bored while nominations were taking place, and feels a bit down about it. He thinks he is up and he is correct, the sooner he is out the better. Anamemememelia was bad, but this guy is a whole level up from her. 

Did it not cross his mind once that you do NOT play up in the lounge like he did, especially when nominations were taking place. Can you just imagine what the uproar will be if he manages to win the Gamechanger and takes himself off the block. Doesn't bear thinking about.

Back to Kay, and she is getting worked up about maybe having the wrong attitude in the house. Did she expect things to be sunshine and rainbows in this environment, why exactly did she apply for this show. In the garden Isaac is venting about Lewis G to Tomasz, Sian and Akeem. Tomasz tells him to be open minded.

Kay is still sobbing, cue the Great Escape music (not literally) as she tries to break out via the fire door in the bathroom. Cian and Lewis F are luckily on hand to stop her before she left a Kay sized shape in the fire exit. Big Brother calls her to the diary room, and she doesn't want to face the cameras. Note how she is wearing sunglasses this whole time, probably because there are no tears. Surprised Big Brother haven't told her to remove them while in the Diary Room

Now she's getting all this attention, those 'tears' seemed to have dried up. Meanwhile Cameron is talking about her in the Diary Room, and says he will not mince his words for anyone.

Lewis G meanwhile has made an observation at last that he has made Isaac mad. Kenaley and Brooke try to talk some sense into him, but as with Anamememelia it's probably in one ear and out of the other.

Isaac says he doesn't feel sorry for Lewis G, and that Lewis G goes over the top all the time. Holy understatement. Cameron and Kay are clearing the air, thankfully very amicable. Lewis F thinks his intuition is spot on about Lewis G, in your dreams pal. In the garden Lewis G and Isaac try to clear the air, and all seems well again on Planet Lewis G as they make up

To be continued in Episode 10....

Final thoughts

Get Lewis G out, and pronto. Had about enough of that guy as I can take. Hopefully he won't win the Gamechanger competition and take himself off the block. Absolutely no reason for him to act the way he did, and no excuse is going to save him. As for Kay, don't these people EVER think about what they are getting themselves into when they go on this show....Nuff said

Big Brother 19 UK - Episode 8 - The rise and possible fall of Lewis G

Anamelia's last waltz and the emergence of Lewis G in this episode, as we go into the episode before nominations.

So without further ado, let's get Anamemememelia out of there and get this slightly longer episode underway

Lights on for eviction day in the house and off we go.....

Guess nothing really happened during the day on Friday, as we are straight into the evening for Friday. Tomasz was revealed to have left the house for medical tests, and has been given breathing apparatus to help with his snoring, and already it's goodbye to Anamememelia. Good riddance to her and let's get on with the rest of them.

Cameron thinks everyone will settle down now SHE has gone, don't count on it pal

Lewis F says he handled himself with decorum, and is thankful the public could see what he was seeing. He is happy Sian and Kay are still in there, possible hints of a showmance I wonder?. Speaking of relationships, Cian is discussing his past loves and also people sneering at his mum when Cian came out as gay.

Tomasz is saying he's alright and excited and looking forward to his new relationship with his breathing apparatus machine. Big Brother informs him the bedroom is unlocked so he can check everything out. He invites everyone into the bedroom to check out the apparatus. 

Cameron is having mixed emotions about the eviction, and points out there are some conversations he is not comfortable with. He feels frustrated as he is stuck between a rock and a hard place about expressing his own emotions, and feels he doesn't have the courage to do certain things in there. Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the journey storyline for this series.

Lewis G being the bellend that he is, has had a bit too much too drink and begins to shovel raw mince with his bare hands into a pan, followed by the salad itself. Big Brother then chimes in and calls Akeem to the Diary Room to throw it all away, due to contamination worries. 

This annoys Lewis G, and he repeatedly shouts OH MY GOD, before going to the Diary Room and he keeps running in his mouth. Big Brother tells him to have a slice of toast and a glass of water and to go to bed. This guy is so *bleep* annoying, please can he be up for the public vote or be the least favourite housemate.

And he is still creeping around the bedroom, shouting at the top of his voice. A very angry Big Brother calls him to the Diary Room as he invaded Lewis F's personal space, and they advise him to go straight to bed.

On to the next day, and guess who is up first banging on a bowl in the bathroom. Lots of unhappy faces in the bedroom as they slowly rise and shine. Who can blame them where that bellend is involved

Tomasz is in the Diary Room saying how much of a wonderful sleep he had, and starts to get emotional. He says he hasn't had a sleep like that for 15 months.

Back to the Lewis G show, he says he may have to think about turning vegan as he doesn't want to contaminate anyone. Oh please.....

Sian is telling some of them her breasts were well worth the money. Cameron is asked if he is a T or A guy, but he says neither.

Lewis F now found his new whining target in Lewis G, is this guy determined to whine about everybody. If he hates it so much in there, why doesn't he just leave, it's not that difficult. The door is open.

Lewis G explains to Isaac he just got mad in the moment, whatever that means. I would say it was more 'look at me, I'm mad me'

Big Brother announces the housemates will be called in one by one to be informed of their coin amounts, they can reveal to the others what they have or keep quiet. They decide.

The full leaderboard is as follows:

Akeem - 1,167

Zoe - 780

Isaac - 772

Tomasz - 715

Cian - 613

Lewis F - 565

Brooke - 494

Lewis G - 404

Cameron - 377

Kenaley - 371

Kay - 348

Sian - 315

Note, Anamemememelia donated her 126 coins to Tomasz after she was evicted, and also there is no more penalty of being on the block for the few at the bottom of the leaderboard.

Meanwhile back on the Lewis G show, he now wants to prepare the evening meal, Um no thanks after you tried to poison everyone with your last effort.

Zoe speaks with pride about her son, saying how he loves animals and he is the first person on the scene when someone hurts themselves. Meanwhile in the bedroom Tomasz and Kenaley talk about money. That familiar kerching sounds and Big Brother reveals the top 3 on the leaderboard.

Today's Task

It's the Big Brother Auction, nuff said

First item up for auction is 3 Luxury Doughnuts. They are eventually bought for 25 coins by Isaac. Next up is a date for two. Cian is the highest bidder with 35 coins, and he picks Zoe as his date, perhaps not the two Big Brother were hoping for. For today's final auction it is a party with all the trimmings, doesn't take Akeem long to be the only bidder with 200 coins. He's just saved himself from being nominated there.

Isaac says he likes Sian, in your dreams, pal. Meanwhile Kay is trying to speak to Tomasz in a different. Isaac gets the 3 luxury doughnuts he won in the auction, and he is tucking straight into them.

Meanwhile Cian and Zoe enjoy their date for two, again won in the auction. To say it gets messy would be a massive understatement. You can tell Big Brother had other people in mind, as they have left condoms in the date room to which Cian and Zoe pretend they are balloons.

Faux apology from the bellend in regards to the antics last night, when he kicked off about the mince and salad. Preparation now beginning for their party, the last item to be won in the auction.

Lewis G lets a big fart go in the garden, while Brooke says the atmosphere is really good but there is a little underlying tension in the air ahead of nominations. If this was BB in 2011-2017, there would be some sort of stirring thrown in shortly after Brooke left the diary room.

Kay and Lewis G are bonding. Don't go there, Kay, set your sights a little higher than him. Cameron, Isaac and Akeem are discussing Lewis G and Kay getting closer, and the man of the moment makes an appearance feeling pretty pleased with himself.

Tomasz is feeling a bit insecure about being less clothed, and being the odd one out amongst 'those who belong on magazine covers'. Another candidate for the journey storyline.

Cameron really enjoyed the evening, and says it is the calm before the storm of nominations. He says its odd how pleasant it has been, but people can't relax and maybe to expect the unexpected. Lewis G is cooing about Kay. *yawn* No showmances please, he can go this week

To be continued in Episode 9, where we will have nominations

Final thoughts

As always a little something for everyone, although Lewis G can do one from the house as far as I am concerned. Anamemememelia may be gone, but we have our new house annoyance and in stereo this time. Totally out of line in the way he acted with the mince and salad, and BB had every right to be angry.

So therefore the winner of the Big Brother from The Batcave Bellend of the Week award for the second week in a row goes to LEWIS G.

Outside of his antics, a pretty solid episode with a lot of fun thrown in with the items up for grabs in the BB Auction, and looking like it's a straight fight between Cameron and Tomasz for the journey storyline this series.

Really happy to see the praise this series is getting on forums and social media, even though gameplay is frowned on in this version of the show it's great to see so many warming to it. Should be a great few weeks ahead as we prepare to say goodbye to the show on this channel.

Although it would be nice to have some updates to talk about during the day to break the silence, but I know that's not Endemol's fault. More like that jerk of a controller who is hellbent on burying the show completely.

Big Brother USA 2018 - Episode 38 - Final 4 Nominations, Veto, and Eviction

In case you missed it from the last episode:

• Kaycee won Veto, but did not use it
• Adorable Sam was evicted with a vote of 2-0
• JC won Final 4 HoH and sealed his place in final 3

Tonight sees JC make his nominations, then it's straight into the extremely crucial Veto competition, followed by the revealing of this season's final 3 as we take another step closer to crowning this year's champion.

Julie still calling herself Chen-Moonves, in support of her ousted husband Les Moonves the now former president of CBS.

Tonight

We pick up the action after JC's unlikely win, and he is already talking about targeting Angela. One thing is for sure it's not going to be an all Level 6 final 3. JC is sharpening his knives, but still feel downbeat as he shouldn't even be in there given what's happened earlier in the season.

Anyways back to the show, Kaycee is disappointed that it won't be an all Level 6 final 3 and a plan rewrite is in order. Angela is wondering how this has happened, it's simple JC won HoH and you didn't.

Nomination ceremony

As expected JC nominated TYLER and ANGELA. Not that these nominations make a bit of difference as the Veto is more crucial as it books the winner into the final 3 as well.

More jury members convene at the Jury House

Jury so far: Bayleigh, Angie, Faysal, Scottie and Haleigh

But we know who is coming next don't we, enter Brett and Sam. But first the people already in there are all in agreement that Kaycee is the more preferable choice for winner, as she has had to get less blood on her hands and is storming through some of these competitions, although that 1 HoH could count against her.

Next to walk through the door is Brett, and some of them are pleased to see him while others are not. He tells them about being ratted on by Tyler who shared Brett's pitch to Angela and Kaycee resulting in his departure. Sam in next, and she admits she could have been a bit stronger in the house, and a bit selfish on the side. Interesting note is that Tyler's deals with everyone made for very interesting conversation, and could hand whoever is sitting next to him the win.

Veto competition

The final and most crucial Veto competition is upon us, and it's called Down to the Wires.To cut a long story short, clues will be given about the various competitions over this season and they must guide the balls to the correct holes. Strikes will be given if the player is last to finish. 2 strikes and the player is out. Last houseguest standing wins the Veto and their spot in final 3.

Order of elimination: JC, Tyler and Angela

5 in a row for Kaycee and she seals her place in final 3. Additionally, she gets the sole vote who to evict as she obviously can't use this Veto as she is the only other choice to go on the block with JC being HoH.

Julie plugs America's Favourite Houseguest in which the successful guest, as voted for by the public, can pick up a $25,000 prize

Eviction

After much deliberation, Kaycee chooses to evict Angela

In her interview with Julie, Angela does admit she has feelings for Tyler, but hints at being surprised at Kaycee's choice at evicting her. Tyler admitted he loved Angela as well in his goodbye message

To be concluded in the Finale Episode, as I won't be covering the Season Review episode as that's just mainly 1 hour of filler.

Final thoughts

Not the final 3 I had hoped for, for reasons explained above. Hopefully Short Stuff will go first on Finale night, and Kaycee goes on to win. But I won't be too fussed if Tyler takes the spoils, just not JC as I hate to think what the uproar will be like if he wins. One competition win does not make a winner, and he is definitely NOT a mastermind.

For the penultimate time for BB20, someone is always watching.....

Big Brother 19 UK - Episode 7 - The many faces of Anamelia

And so we reach the first eviction of this final Five series. Either Sian, Kay or Anamelia will be the first to leave, and for the final time in the Five era a female is guaranteed to be leaving the UK house first.

So without further ado, let's get those lights on and get this party started

Usual whoop whoops from the crowd as Emma welcomes us in for this first eviction, and as she reads out the numbers for the three on the block there is hardly any response for Sian and Kay from the crowd, but Anamelia is booed. Hardly a surprise as it has basically been the Anamemememelia show all week.

First up is a recap of the week we have just seen, which feels a bit pointless as it has been pretty much covered everywhere. It's worth noting how this series is being referred to as a 'game', as a lot of housemates in the past have been frowned on for gameplay in the UK version.

Onto the Thursday highlights, and lights are on and they have finally had a good night's sleep. Zoe is talking to Tomasz about the decision she had to make in the final part of this week's big task. Yet again Lewis F is whining about something or another, oh boy I can feel a new Bellend of the Week coming on if Anamelia doesn't stay in.

In the kitchen, Sian is remembering her pregnancy cravings and mentions some really weird mixtures. It's these little things we need to see instead of the Anamemememelia show. Zoe now talking to Cian about the power she had, and tells him a great weight has lifted off her shoulders.

Isaac tells Big Brother that some people were out of line in regards to Zoe's decision. He specifically mentions Lewis F and Anamememelia. This guy is just as much as a Bellend, and is in my sights for this week's award.

Meanwhile back on the Anamememelia show, she and some others have gathered in the living area and are talking about dating, while current Bellend of the Week Lewis G and Isaac are at the smoking area talking about cars.

Cian talks about getting a Glacier Mint stuck to his private parts, too much information there, fella. He then gives his private parts 11 out of 10. Nuff said

Big Brother has gathered the housemates, and reveals ANAMEMEMELIA, SIAN and KAY as on the chopping block. Note, there was a big swell on forums and social media to get Kay out as she is 'boring'. Marcus reveals the Big Brother bank will remain open and these totals will stick around as in the future, power privileges and luxuries will be able to be purchased. Call me cynical but Big Brother will probably pick and choose who will get these powers, privileges and luxuries.

Cian gets the customary BB UK head shave from Brooke, while Bellend Lewis G and Isaac do exercises in the dining area. Cian approves of the head shave. 

Back on the Anamememelia show, and she and Kenaley try to clear the air after their argument a few nights ago. As usual from Anamememelia, it's the usual me I me I me I. So hoping she goes so the others can get a chance to breathe.

In the bedroom, Cameron thinks the house is haunted. He's got Glyn's journey storyline written all over him, could be one to watch in the future.

Kay and Lewis F talk about alcohol, and Kay points out that alcohol affects a man's libido. Some of these housemates are sex mad, wouldn't be at all shocked if there was a full blown romp in there before the end of the series.

Sian is certain she will go, and she does start crying. She says she is scared of going out the house.

Zoe is talking about feeling nervous and anxious about going in the house, a mention of 24/7. What's that to us out here, seeing that jerk of a controller will not permit us to see ANYTHING outside of the highlights.

Lewis F says he really likes Kay, no showmances PLEASE. Kay says if she is out she's out, and is worried about perception, and now Bellend Lewis G is trying to crack on to her. Anyone but him, Kim. 

The girls are getting dressed up for the night, Anamememelia leaves nothing to the imagination as perhaps expected now she knows she is up for the public vote. Too little too late are the words that come to mind. Bellend and Isaac are eyeing up Kay.

Back to sex talk, and now it's Tomasz talking about his sex life....Nuff said. Nothing against Tomasz, it's just all this sex talk.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome Talia into the house, alter ego of Anamememelia. Desperation really creeping in with her now. Cameron says Akeem is playing the game perfectly just by being himself.

Anamememelia making sure she is the centre of attention with this Talia nonsense, cover yourself up and stop being so dam desperate would be my advice. They shouldn't really be encouraging her.

Lewis F and Anamememelia are trying to clear the air, wasted breath Lewis I assure you.

In the kitchen, Lewis F and Kay are trying to stop Cameron munching meat. Not like that, behave yourselves ;) 

Lewis G continues to be a bellend after some refreshments, and Tulia aka Anamememelia makes a complete fool of herself with Lewis F as in draping herself all over him. As I said, too little too late.

And lo and behold more whining from Lewis F about Anamememelia.....Why doesn't this birdbrain just walk if he is not going to get into the spirit of things, admittedly it was kind of desperate from Anamememelia.

Emma reveals a secret viewer nomination, in which viewers can vote for their favourite housemate and the least favourite goes on the block with whoever has been nominated by the housemates. There is also a hint of a UK version of Power of Veto, but for obvious reasons can't actually be named as that, so over here it is called the Game changer. Basically it's whoever is leading the leaderboard plus the two on the block and 3 others will be picked. Whether that is via random draw or not remains to be seen, but it's highly likely that it will be.

And after Emma has checked in with Rylan for what is on BOTS, which I may add does include my favourite Chaser, the foxy lady herself Jenny Ryan, it's time for.....

Eviction

And Emma is back in the studio away from the crowd, and after a long pause the first evictee of this series is ANAMEMEMELIA

Lots of boos for Anamememelia as she exits the house

As expected the usual me I me I me I. She talks about Lewis G constantly singing her name and she says she is happy to be out of there, as she didn't like the talking behind backs. She claimed she knew for sure she would be up. She talks about the Blood Money twist, and Emma points out that Lewis G was relishing bankrupting her. Emma talks about the explosive chemistry between mememe and Lewis F, and we see a few clips. She gives her remaining coins to Tomasz.

To be continued in the 90 minute Episode 8, as nominations get underway and also the person who was least favourite in the poll will be revealed along with those who will face the next public vote.

Final thoughts

Thank god she is gone, don't think I could take another week of her monopolising the show and cutting everyone else out. Now everyone will be able to breathe without fear of her jumping down everyone's throat. Looking forward to seeing what the Veto gamechanger will bring. This series is doing exactly what it is saying on the tin so far, and it WON'T die just because mememe is not there. Please people just give it a chance instead of writing it off prematurely. We must not give Frow the satisfaction.

That being said, thank you for reading if you have made it this far, and please keep those RT's, likes, shares and comments coming, they are very much appreciated

Big Brother 19 UK - Episode 6 - A Miner Problem

And so begins the last episode before the first eviction of the series, welcome one and all as we look back on the final part of this week's coin task, we find out if Zoe uses the power she has been given, and also find out who will be facing the public vote

So without any further ado, lights on in the house and off we go....

Scoreboard as it stands so far in terms of the top 3: Akeem, Lewis G and Isaac

Bottom 3 so far: Lewis F, Anamemememelia and Sian

Straight into today's task, as richest housemate Akeem has been appointed CEO of the Big Brother Gold Mining Company. Isaac and Lewis G will be the supervisors. The CEO and supervisors will receive hefty bonuses if the targets set by Big Brother are met by the workers. The workers will be on an earn what you dig salary.

Big Brother sets a first target of 500 golden nuggets and Akeem chooses Cameron, Zoe and Cian to do the first shift for this task

Housemates have been told that there are also rare gems hidden within the mine, and they could be very valuable if they are found. The workers must notify the supervisors if they find a gem at the end of their shift.

Big Brother has left a note in the mine which basically says they don't have to tell the supervisors about the gems if they don't want to, and to sell it on to Big Brother.

One housemate will get an extra bonus 100 coins if they earn the title of Miner of the Day

May I just say a very well done mining set and well done to the housemates for not being so vain and not worrying about getting a little dirt under their manicured fingernails. 

First result is in, and Cian has managed to find 294 grams in gold, Cameron 150 grams and Zoe 391 grams, and they are well over the 500 grams target. The supervisors will receive their bonus. Cian reveals a gem he has found, and next door is Big Brother's black market. If he chooses to enter, he will be able to exchange all the gold and gems he and his co-workers to top up his own account and it will be deducted from his co-worker's accounts. He is straight into this other room.

Cian has earned himself 300 coins which will be added to his overall amount, shortly afterwards he talking to the supervisors about his experience in the  mine. They have no idea of the extra coinage Cian has earned.

Meanwhile back to the Anamemememelia show, and her and Sian are trying to clear the air. Lots of me's and I's from Anamelia which is to be expected, and here come the waterworks. Nuff said.

Enter Cameron into the task boardroom, and he tries to cut a deal with Akeem to be Miner of the Day. Safe to say, it was a very swift no

Brooke, Kenaley and Lewis F are appointed for the next shift in the mine, but they fail to pick up and read the scroll about the gems. Shortly afterwards, Isaac comes in the mine and does pick up said scroll and reads it. He then tips off Akeem and Lewis G.

Lewis F has the duty of team 2 of cashing in the gold, and Big Brother tells him what has told to Cian. Lewis chooses to hand in his gold to the black market, and wants Brooke called in to do the same. 

He picks up an extra 350 gold coins to add to his account, and he hands Brooke the gem they found so she can hand it in to get more money. Brooke is summoned to the task boardroom along with Kenaley and Lewis F. They all take responsibility for finding a diamond, but eventually it is handed over to the supervisors.

Straight to Tomasz, Anamemememelia, Sian and Kay for the final shift, and thankfully they do find and read the scroll about the black market.

Sian is counting out the final team's total, but Tomasz has found a gem and insists he will not tell the supervisors. Sian is told about the black market, but astonishingly she refuses. Next up is Tomasz, and he reveals the gem he found and is encouraged to sell it next door, to which he accepts and he picks up an extra 200 coins.

Next up, the housemates have been gathered for the results and they have passed. Miner of the day went to BROOKE.

And now for Zoe's big decision, in case you missed it Zoe got bed 13 and got a power to swap her coin total for someone else's. Lewis F keeps shouting out, what the eff does it have to do with him? It's not his choice. She eventually settles on LEWIS G.

Lewis F once again starts shouting, while Zoe is crying her eyes out.

The leaderboard top 3 is now Akeem, Zoe and Isaac....Meanwhile facing the public vote will be Kay, Sian and Anamemememelia

Lewis F and Lewis G are having words, and Lewis F's voice is raised a few decibels. Talk in the bedroom is about Zoe's decision, and Anamemememelia is still determined to have the last word as usual.

And now an argument that thankfully doesn't involve memememe, Isaac and Lewis F are having words about Lewis F raising his voice during Zoe's decision. Won't go into details as some of these housemates are not even sure themselves what they are arguing about sometimes. 

In the bedroom Isaac is still unhappy about Lewis F, and is now calling Lewis F a snake. Lewis F is venting in the Diary Room, poor person who had to man the mic during this latest rant.

To be continued in Episode 6, the first eviction of this series

Final thoughts

Anamelia thankfully a little more quieter in this episode, but she will probably still go. Very big campaign to get Kay out instead, but why? Apparently she is dull, well it's very hard to get a word in edgeways at the moment as it's been the Anamemememelia show for most of the week. Get Anamelia out and everybody will be able to breathe properly.

That being said, it's not been a bad first week with something in this series for everyone, especially the fans who want it to be more gameplay driven. 

The show will NOT die if Anamemememelia goes, at least give everyone else a chance and let them bring the drama. It doesn't all have to revolve around her. So the ratings are a bit low, but that's hardly Endemol's fault, just that jerk of a controller who wants to bury the show so no other channel will pick it up.

That being said, thank you for reading if you have made it this far and please keep those RT's, likes, comments and shares. All very much appreciated.

Big Brother Radio will be on the air immediately after the eviction, discussing said eviction and a whole lot else regarding Big Brother....Join Doc, Garry, Erica and sleepy Sarah right here at 11.35pm UK time

Big Brother USA 2018 - Episode 37 - Final 5 Veto and Eviction and Final 4 HoH

• Outgoing HoH - Angela
• Nominated pre-Veto: JC and Sam

Tonight

Julie goes live straight to the house to tell the houseguests about tonight's surprise eviction. So highly unlikely we will get many highlights this evening as a Veto, eviction, evictee's interview and the Final 4 HoH all have to be squished in.

No opening credits, and Julie Chen-Moonves, yes she is still calling herself that, welcomes us in and it's straight down to business after the nominations ceremony

JC is really happy he has made it this far into the competition, but in all essence he has just floated through while the edit for the televised episodes has made him look like a mastermind. He is trying so hard to sway Tyler with the Kaycee and Angela should go up pitch. Tyler is just getting really fed up with JC, and he is on the verge of changing his vote from Sam to JC.

Veto competition

As there is only five of them left, they will all play in this one. This competition is called Your Mazes are Numbered and it's fastest time wins Veto. They have to wear knights costumes and find three objects in numerical order, in this case 1 Merlin, 2 wolves and 3 witches. They have 30 seconds to find each object in the maze, if the 30 seconds expires they have to start from the beginning. If they don't complete the maze within 30 minutes, then they get timed. No penalties or bonus prizes in this one. 

Finishing times in order:

Kaycee: 5.46

Sam: 30.00

Tyler: 6.29

Angela:10.50

JC: 11.09

4 in a row for Kaycee, now to see if she uses this Veto. Highly unlikely though, and she doesn't disappoint as she keeps the nominations the same so Sam or JC WILL finish in 5th place.

Eviction

Angela will only vote in the event of a tie, while the two nominees are not allowed to vote

Kaycee votes to evict Sam

Tyler votes to evict Sam

Finishing in 5th place is SAM

Sam admits to Mrs Chen-Moonves that she was surprised by the unanimous vote. She thought Tyler had her back, and JC is a pest. That goes without saying. Sam. She also admits she was undercooked going into the house, respect to her for admitting that. It's the experience that counts, and she had something a lot more people have had as in being a part of the Big Brother family in terms of being a houseguest.

Final 4 HoH competition

Angela not eligible to play as outgoing HoH

Whoever wins this one books their place in the final 3. This competition is called What the Bleep, and here is how it works. It's a true or false competition, and houseguests will view clips and fill in what the bleeped word was in the video. No penalties or bonus prizes in this one. The houseguests with the most points at the end of the competition is the new HoH

ROUND 1

JC - 1

Tyler - 1

ROUND 2

JC - 2

Tyler - 1

ROUND 3

JC - 2

Tyler - 1

ROUND 4

JC - 3

Tyler - 2

Kaycee - 1

ROUND 5

JC - 4

Tyler - 3

Kaycee - 2

ROUND 6

JC - 5

Tyler - 4

Kaycee - 2

FINAL ROUND

JC - 5

Tyler - 4

Kaycee - 3

Booking their place in final 3 and new HoH - JC

To be continued in Episode 38, with a bumper edition of nominations, Veto and eviction of one of Level 6

Final thoughts

Nice to have a surprise, just a pity it had to be him to break up the Level 6 big 3. Should have been out weeks ago with everything he did in that house which should have seen him expelled. Will the decision to let Sam go come back and bite Tyler. We'll have to see who JC puts up in the next nominations. All of the big 3 will be in trouble and it will be very difficult to call, but it does leave the door open to some fascinating possibilities come final 3. I don't want to jinx things, but for the sake of the show JC must not win. The guy is a floater and should have been expelled weeks ago.

Two more episodes left to cover for this season, and then that's this season officially closed. I won't be recapping the story of the season episode on Sunday, but I will be covering the next episode (ep.38) and of course the finale next week. I really hope I have done a good job for those who have read these posts, and I will be doing a lot of homework over the next few months in terms of the North American format, and hopefully be better than ever when we reconvene for those that will be watching CBB USA, Big Brother Canada and if it returns BB21 next summer.

Big Brother 19 UK - Episode 5 - Get in the black, and keep out of the red

Tonight's episode is subtitled Blood Money, follow me on the journey and I try to explain to the best of my abilities as we go along. Lots of chopping and changing on the leaderboard in this episode as we move a step closer to finding out who will face the public vote for Friday's eviction.

Lights on and off we go for another episode

Tomasz asks if the people higher up the leaderboard can have some coins stolen, so he and the others near the bottom can catch up. Did he forget he had the chance to steal some coins the episode before, but declined?

Bellend (Lewis G) trying his luck now with Kay. Stay away, Kay, for your own sake just stay away. 

Lewis F is calling Cameron his 'little brother', and is a big fan of Cameron's loyalty. Meanwhile back in the kitchen Lewis G is trying a drink made by Kay.

Anamemememelia has an upset stomach, and Kay is working out how best to treat her. Meanwhile Tomasz and Cameron are worrying about the first eviction, don't worry I don't think you two are going anywhere just yet.

Zoe and Kay are discussing sex. Kay says she has attended sex parties but 'purely for artistic purposes'. Yeah ok Kay we believe you, nudge nudge wink wink.

Current leaderboard in terms of coins:

1st, Akeem

2nd, Kenaley

3rd, Sian

But all that could change when Blood Money starts later

More sex talk in the garden, and lots of talk of 'squirting....Moving swiftly on

Lewis G and Cameron are now playing chess, haven't played that game for years myself, would be nice to go down that path again one day.

Lewis F talking about his favourite subject in Anamememelia. Rare sighting of Cian as back in the garden, talk now turns to parents. Anamemememelia tells them a story about being so hungry that she once ate a slice of bread off the pavement with ants on it, which causes her to get emotional. 

Blood Money

As the housemate with the 'advantage', Sian reads out the rules. Basically the housemates will take it in turns to dip their hands into the 'blood' which is probably either fruit juice as seen in Beadle's About, or corn syrup as the killer used in the first Scream movie. Anyways on with the show, and when they pick out a token they may have to name a housemate to either gain or lose coins. Best explantion I hope, let's see how it goes.

Sian chooses Akeem to lose 250 coins

Kay loses 50 coins from her total

Brooke chooses Akeem to lose 100 coins

Anamemememelia chooses Tomasz to have his coin total doubled

Akeem loses 50 coins from his total

Kenaley chooses Sian to lose 150 coins

Lewis F loses 50 coins from his total

Isaac chooses Kenaley to lose half of their coin total

Lewis G chooses to bankrupt Anamemememelia

Cian chooses Cameron to gain 250 coins

Zoe loses 50 coins from her total

Tomasz chooses to give Anamelia 100 coins

Cameron chooses to give Brooke 150 coins

And that's it, leading the way for now is Akeem, 2nd is Lewis G, and 3rd is Isaac. Bottom 3 are Lewis F, Sian and Anamemememelia

Lewis G is fishing for compliments as he asks around to see if his choice to make HER bankrupt was satisfactory, and guess what she's whining again. Stop taking this so dam seriously, girl.

Discussion about Blood Money continues in the garden between Sian and Kenaley, and then that all too familiar kerching sounds as Big Brother reveals the top 3. Two bellends and Akeem lead the way.

Next up Anamemememelia, and she is talking about having sex in a Beverley Hills mansion. The smell of something then descends, can't quite place it. Not cows, hang on I know it's bullshit.

Lewis F continues with his obsession about you know who, meanwhile his said obsession rabbits on about something or another to Kenaley which is making Kenaley cry. Wouldn't you cry when mememe is jibber jabbering in your ear. Shortly afterwards there's a lot of negative talk about you know who

Camera in the toilet is showing memememe talking to Kay about everyone else. Of course Kenaley finds her way into the bathroom, and off we go again for another argument involving memememe

Raised voices the lot, you get the picture after 5 days I suppose. Half the time I am not sure they are sure they know the arguing is about.

Final thoughts

Anamelia looking in BIG trouble come eviction time. 'nuff said.

This series is delivering in gameplay terms, drama, and casting. Next Bellend of the Week award still up for grabs, should take one more push for Anamelia to dethrone Lewis G if she survives.

Big Brother USA 2018 - Episode 36 - Final 5 HoH and Nominations

In case you missed it:

• Haleigh was evicted
• Tyler won the stand in HoH Competition
• He nominated Sam and JC
• Angela won Veto
• Veto was used on JC, Brett was named as replacement
• Brett was evicted

Now we move into the final 5, and the next step to crowning this year's champion will be taken

Amongst other things tonight, we will have a special performance inside the house from Bebe Rexha, the HoH competition and also the nominees will be revealed. What they don't know is that 5 will become 4 sooner than they think due to a surprise eviction and then the final 3 will be revealed the episode after. 

I won't be covering the season review episode on Sunday, but I will be back for the finale of BB20

Tonight

We pick up the action after Brett's eviction

JC has to play on his own now, as both Faysal and Brett whom JC thought he was controlling in a puppet sort of way have been evicted. The edit likes the casual viewers to think JC has been a mastermind when he obviously has not been. Anyways he is a bit downbeat now Brett is gone, but he compliments Tyler on the move in getting Brett out, but admits at the same time he doesn't trust Tyler.

Angela, on the other hand, is very happy. She basically says "Cross Level 6 and you are out", and that is what has happened. We see flashbacks to Tyler's strategy in getting Brett out.

Sam apologises to Angela for using a certain B word, hint: it rhymes with witch. Angela more or less says to us that the hug meant nothing, and Sam WILL be going home.

Tyler explains that he will not be playing in the next HoH, and as he had put up JC and Sam in the past and prays that neither of them wins HoH as they could easily return the favour. JC, however, is not taking things laying down, and Tyler has to work double hard to settle him down. JC says he does not trust Tyler at all, but Tyler spins some fancy lines and JC is calmed down, at least for now.

HoH competition

BBFlix and Chill is the name of this competition and here is how it will work. 

Tyler as outgoing HoH, is not eligible to play. 3 posters will be displayed in every round, and they will hear people describing the correct movie, and they must decipher which movie the voices are talking about. First houseguest to buzz in with the right answer wins the point, and so on for 7 rounds. The houseguest with the most points at the end of 7 rounds will be the new HoH. No penalties for wrong answers and no bonus prizes in this one

Off we go....

Kaycee didn't score anything in this competition, so the winner of the final 5 HoH, and securing their place in Final 4 is ANGELA

Angela now very confident her, Kaycee and Tyler will be final 3. She states she wants Sam out before JC. Tyler is already thinking about who he wants to sit next to if he makes it to Final 2.

Showmance alert, and Tyler and Angela profess their love for each other. Nuff said on that score. The one thing Tyler said would distract him is now happening, I wonder if Angela is playing on that and will send him packing if both of them get to Final 3.

JC still sour and not trusting Tyler, and pitching to him who Tyler may take to final 2 if he gets there. Short Stuff is so annoying, it's frustrating he has managed to stay in there despite all the bad things he has done in there that the live feeders have seen him do.

Sofa gatherage, and Angela tells them as a rewardfor reaching final 5, they will have their own private concert from BEBE REXHA.

Nominations ceremony

Once the concert is over it is time to get down to business with Angela's nominations

To no shock she does put SAM and JC on the block

To be continued in Episode 37, Veto and Eviction 13

Final thoughts

No great surprises from Angela as we approach the end. Remember they don't know it's a surprise eviction up next, so it's going to be Sam out if Angela has her way, and there's still the spectre of JC in there and possibly throwing a spanner in the Level 6 works if he wins the final 4 HoH. We could do with one surprise this season, just wish it wasn't JC because he should have been out on his ear a few weeks ago.
