Blog - ETTDR MS42/2007

Erk to the Diary Room (Episode 42 - Noms 9 Review, Zacho and HM69's Excellent Adventure)

Welcome to the blog version of Erk to the Diary Room. The podcast edition is available here.


This week started with the eviction of Mr HTB and Ian Thorpe and the next lot of nominations. DanYELLa has the FNL Super Power but that didn't stop some stupid HM's from giving her points anyway. It was no surprise to hear that ATB was up for eviction because of the previous task where she failed and was automatically up. Also up were BTB, HM69 & JTN.


Of course, DanYELLa had to decide to save one person and after previous arguements with ATB and the gender based way that her and HM69 talked about in the Rewards Room over the weekend, there only was going to be one person saved and it was HM69 and she put up Rove instead.


I had to laugh at one part of Noms where Travo was nominating and he was talking about the beers but in typical Travo terms he called them Britoes which is his slang for Britney Speers which is rhyming slang for beers. However despite BBB having heard Travo for the last 9 weeks, he had to ask Travo what he was on about.


The task this week is a really good one for a change and it does not rely on the HM's working as a team but on a series of personal challenges (for the lack of a better word). The extended Wednesday daily show showed the task starting and the following tasks were assigned to HM's as they all had to select a number.


In brief, the following happened:


* 1 - Zoltan. Gets a pampering room and gets to drive around in a golf cart.

* 2 - BTB. Has to be Zoltan's slave.

* 3 - JTN. Had to take 50kg of other HM's clothes (not his own) and BB would consficate them. The clothes were to be of his choice but due to interference from other HM's, he had to find another 20kg.

* 4 - Travo. He had to be a dog.

* 5 - ATB - Could only pick 5 words and is only allowed to say these 5 words. She chose yes, no, come, help, thanks

* 6 - DanYELLa. Homeless outside the Diary Room. Had to wear a hessian sack (still looked hot). Any food or drink had to be donated by HM's.

* 7 - HM69. Got told to either go to the Diary Room and leave the house or swap with someone else.

* 8 - Zacho. Got told he is leaving the house with HM69

* 9 - Rove. Immune from being nominated next week.


In the end, HM69 and Rove got to see baby tigers at Dreamworld. ATB, Travo, DanYELLa and ATB were funny in their tasks and Zoltan had fun driving his cart around the yard. BTB did SFA as usual. On Thursday night's show, the tasks are re-allocated. I like this task and a lot of the fan comment on BBBBBA has been positive as well. It's good to see someone is thinking.


I think JTN might get evicted this week but can we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get rid of BTB. His "relationship" with HTB was the only thing that got him into the house (don't forget, he didn't have to audition and he was in Canada at the time) and his "relationship" with ATB (whatever you think of that) is the only thing keeping him in the house and that tEEnAgE gIrLs (the voters) think he is hot.


I hope this week is a good week. The house is heading down to the finish line fast. If things kept going like they were, no one would be interested. I think this week's task may help save the good ship BB.
