All the Best People Holiday in CBB at This Time of Year.

I know that should probably be getting on with some proper work. It's just that this really the first opportunity I've had to relax since before the last Olympics. The next Olympics are just a couple of weeks so if you don't mind I'm going to continue slacking off with Celebrity Big Brother.

The problem is that there's not actually much to say about Celebrity Big Brother at the moment. The show that aired last night (9/1/14) was all about the events of Wednesday (8/1/14) which featured an eviction. These very much dominate life in the house with the events of the day all focusing on the build up to the eviction which is shown live in show that obviously tocuhes on that day's goings on. Then after the eviction the remaining housemates revert back to their comfort zones in order to consolidate their position rather then trying anything new.

A perfect example of this would be Jasmine Waltz to reacted to the eviction of Lee Ryan and Casey Batchelor (to a secret annex) by rekindling her relationship with Luisa Zissman. This involved Jasmine and Luisa platonically moving into Lee and Casey's double bed together. That revealed quite a lot of clues that Jasmine and Lee had indeed had full, unprotected sex with each other. For example when they were changing the bed sheets Jasmine kept saying things like; "I bet this is full of sperm" and "Yeah this has got a couple of ejaculations in it." Therefore Jasmine and Lee's reproductive health is becoming something of a major background issue although no-one is prepared to tackle it head on.

Also in my previous post I said that Luisa has, probably in her past had her emotional vulnerability exploited by predatory lesbians. For the sake of clarity I should point out that a predatory lesbian is a predatory female homosexual. Jasmine seems to be a perfect example of a predatory female heterosexual.

Perhaps in an effort to provide something to put in the Thursday show directly following the eviction the remaining housemates made their nominations for the next eviction. What normally happens is that each housemate nominates two other housemates for eviction and then the two housemates with the most nominations go forward to face the public vote. However on this occasion that process led to Jim Davidson and Liz Jones being put forward. As these are both housemates we'd like to get our money's worth from the bar was dropped to include the third housemate with the most nominations. As Jasmine Waltz, Luisa Zissman and Evander Holyfield were all tied in third place there are now five potential candidate for eviction on Friday (10/1/14).

Presumably the candidate who receives the most public votes will be evicted on Friday. However there is also rumoured to be a secret twist involving the second place candidate. Annoyingly we're not being told what that twist will be which is incredibly frustrating because it's hard to know who to vote for if you don't know what you're voting for them to do. However I would be most happy to see Evander Holyfield leave the house. That's because apart from undermining Dappy's masculinity with his mere presence the four time heavyweight boxing world champion doesn't really do anything. Therefore life in the house would carry on much the same as before whether he was in there or not.

Also of course Lee and Casey are supposed to re-enter the main house on Friday. I think that's a bit of a shame because personally I think they could have done with another day in the annex to let everything progress a bit.

13:50 on 10/1/14 (UK date).
