Big Brother: Posh gets the push

Ben leaves, Sam arrives, Jedward irritate me and John James and Josie make it official...

Big Brother: Ben is booted out. Oh.

Ben has left the building. He was a good housemate even if he had turned into a miserable, bitching git in the last couple of weeks. A couple of things he said had made me really dislike him, so his departure wasn't a surprise and I'm sure he'll be seizing every ‘media' opportunity possible. As long as he gets a haircut I'll let him off.

Talking of irritants, welcome new housemate Sam. Clearly chosen by Big Brother because all the housemates disliked him before he even stepped over the threashold, he promises to be entertaining even if I'll probably want him to face the Tree's wrath within hours. His voice drones and he looks like an irritating little kid.

The annoyance continued with the arrival of Jedward in the house. Any of you who read my X Factor blog will know that I'd have happily had them sent to a labour camp in Siberia, so their arrival on BB was as pleasant as having Peaches Geldof as my lodger. Not only do I have no idea why they have done an exact cover of All The Small Things, they shoulder barged Andrew, broke a table, set off a fire alarm and were mean to Josie. They should have fanished like Leon Jackson by now When will it stop?

On to happier times - Best. Task. EVER! I Loved it even though I would have failed miserably. From Corin having custard pies thrown at her and Ben having a clown scare him in the diary room to Marcus the Big Brother voiceover man coming into the house and doing it live [‘The housemates are sitting in the living room passing around the jaffa cakes'] and several naked men parading around it was genius. There are too many highlights to list. Big Brother at its absolute finest.

While Dave has strangely being growing on me and has been quite funny is it not hypocrisy to say someone in a wet shirt offends you then looking up your wife's skirt on TV? Just a thought.

Finally John James and Josie are now officially loved up. I am so happy. I stand corrected though, I really didn't think they were snogging and they actually were. I really didn't think they would ever get it together. I am now buying a hat and patiently waiting for my wedding invite to arrive in the post.

However, I was shocked to the core the other day when a friend of mine, whose BB opinion I always agree with, thinks Josie is putting on an act and playing the game. Never. But if it turns out she is and makes me look a fool, I'd like you to forget all the glowing comments I've written about her and pretend that everything I wrote about Govan was actually about her.
