Erk to the Diary Room (Episode 3 - Week 1 in Review)
Firstly, how many blonde chicks are there! There is one brunette (TJ) who has been called "The Translator" by my Myspace buddy Mike Goldman. Good one, Mike. If I had to identify all the blonde chicks in a lineup, I could name Kate and Rebecca because they don't look like the rest of them. So from now on in Erk shorthand, all the blondes will be known as "Name The Blonde", eg Kate the Blonde or KTB.
Out of all the chicks, I'd have to identify with The Translator the best. While she might seem a bit of a toff at times, at least she is out there having fun. And anyone who can fit into a suitcase with just their head sticking out for a laugh is worth something compared to bitchy blonde chicks.
The "secret love couple" of Hayley the Blonde (HTB) and Andrew the Fireman are very lucky that BB has changed his mindset. In previous years, you had to be single before you went into the house but now a couple is secretly in the house. While they aren't allowed to let on to others as part of the challenge (and everyone else has to guess), they are allowed to do what they want if they don't get busted in places like the shower, the chillout room etc. Then BB has introduced Mr X who was an ex of HTB in the form of Billy. Billy has been tasked by BB to get under HTB's skin especially but BB has gone soft and allowed HTB and Billy to talk about it in the farmyard. But presumably Andrew the Fireman has no idea.
The boys are a pretty average ocker lot and there are no really standouts personality wise with the exception of Andrew the Fireman, Thomas the Tall One, or Jamie. There is one guy whose name I don't know yet who reminds me of Hotdogs but at least HD was a little bit likeable. Wannabe HD makes me want to chuck my giant remote control at the TV.
It's a Knockout is back and was good and ETB won. She will be one to watch this year. RTB was good too for the girls and surprisingly Andrew the Fireman and Thomas the Tall One were knocked out early. Jamie the Nerd tried to fire up but was just freaky and was knocked out after game one as well. Gladiators was the theme this week.
Most of the HM's might as well not be there so you'd think early in the week. KTB has got herself offside with some of the house, namely ETB and ATB. ETB and ATB don't like RTB or KTB or Jamie the Nerd as revealed on Friday night's Up Mike. ETB won It's A Knockout (oops FNL) and took ATB into the Rewards Room and they discussed nominations etc. Then out of nowhere, Mike tells us that as a reward in the Rewards Room, they ARE allowed to discuss noms this year. Personally I reckon you should be allowed to discuss noms anywhere, not just the Rewards Room. I'm surprised that I didn't recall Gretel mentioning this earlier in the week.
Speaking of rooms, the White Room people are still there as of late Friday night. Needless to say, I can't comment too much about them as we have only seen video snippets of them. Just keep them there a bit longer I reckon. Of course I wouldn't be saying that if I was in the room wearing white but I wonder how long they can stay there. Will the winner of BB be walking out of the house and there will still be someone there? Surely the UN might consider the room cruel and unusual punishment if the place was in Cuba. It might be time to put ETB and ATB in there for a while and they can bitch all they want and we can see some of the other HM's.
So while I'm not going to pick a winner yet (it is so early) and BB has been trying hard this year, the HM's are looking a carbon copy of the other HM's in previous years. It is up to BB to make things interesting or BB is the one that will be evicted. It's in an interesting stage at the moment so I'm going to stick with it for a bit longer.
