23rd August

After the house mates emerged round 1pm they were looking pretty rough. Housemates spent the short afternoon nervously anticipating the next eviction. Which happend alot earlier than expected, due to housemates' demand. To find out who was evicted buy the vid. After that the housemates were set the task of getting legless and having the time of their lives. This was quite an evening to remember.

22nd August

.The day started quiet as usual with the exception of Kirby and Kevin who were making a flapjak. As they put it they were off to "flap, Jack." Later on in the afternoon BB was host to the ladder climbing competition. This involved: one ladder, various nutcase housemates (inc. BB and Wes) and No walls or objects to lean the ladder up against. To find out competition results and more about the competition buy the video. The competition had to finish due to both ladders being snapped but some crazy stuff happened in that time! Back to the house the housemates chilled out for the remaining afternoon until the eviction was announced at 21:15hrs and left at 22:00hrs. To find out who was evicted buy the vid. Housemates were unsettled by this, but BB's unstoppable want for a good video made them make their nominations almost immediately afterwards. To night all housemates confessed to the nominations being easier and nominations were completed in record time. The housemates desperate to getaway from the non stop pressure grabbed just enough time to watch The Cell before they crashed out for the night! ?

21st August

A very late start for those who managed to sleep. Once again the house not being morning people or afternoon thinking about it the day was quiet but cooking Tea seemed to stimulate people Big Benny feeling that the house mates needed a real shock to get them going set one of the messy tasks yet (to find out what it was buy the video) and to give a hint as to how much fun was iit took 2minutes to complete and 2hours to clean up. Thats not including how long it took housemates to clean themselves. And now for the dreaded nominations housemates had thought BB was relaxing after the task but it would be just a dos without the eviction so pressure on and nominations out. Once nomiations were completed BB posted them up on the website and it went to a public vote. If you didnt vote then you'll have to buy the video to find out who was nominated but even if you voted you didnt know who nominated who so buy the video anyway! Once completed housemates settled down to watch Pulp Fiction which went on till 2am. Housemates took a bit of fresh air, spoke and then retired for the day.

20th August

So far Big Benny has imported more computers so we can hopefully post pictures up of house activities Big Benny will post them as soon as he can. Today was very quiet indeed everyone had obviously racked their brains from the night before. Tonight was BB prize for completing the first (24 hour fire) challenge. With much preparation to do BB relinquished control to Wesley, so he could board up the windows take out furniture and burn crops. Soundchecks were completed late afternoon and the house was prepared. Guest turned up round 8:30pm and the party was raving. Apart from much chatter the party was almost eventless........ Well to start with Housemate Rachel had her ankle busted by her boyfriend who was trying to perform tricks on a skate board. Secondly the faithful, camera loving, careful Wesley fell over in a pond and got very wet (if you buy the video its all on there), Last but not the owner of the joint Yes master of operations Big Benny (aided Grant) performed an "Up riser" and passed out hitting his head on the floor (You guessed it this one will be on the video too). Waking up seconds later (although to him he said it felt like a full nights sleep) he was circled by onlookers from the party and was momentarily dissorientated. Once finding his bearings Big Benny commented "QUALI(T)EE" and was later heard asking for another. Round about midnight numbers started to dwindle and the party quickly draw to a close. Housemates slept, well those who did, slept where they fell (admittadly not all in the house) and a few extras from the party managed to catch some sleep.

19th August

Although the fire had an explosive start (22:00hrs) with all housemates their to witness it numbers soon dwindled leaving only Peter to make sure the fire stayed a light. After an hour of tireless effort of burning fuel (and surrounding trees) he was releaved control and simon and ray took over for all of 15mins giving Peter about enough time to grab a coffee and drink it. After his break Peter was joined by Chris and Big Benny who watched the fire until 04:30hrs. The fire was then left to its own divices until poked by (yes you guessed it) Peter at 07:30hrs but the fire was not burning bright until the helpful hand of Big Benny started building it up again at 09:30hrs. The day was mainly quiet with few interesting happenings. But by far the most interesting was the phone call Big Benny received from one of his neighbours complaing that the smoke and noise from the fire had kept his house awake until 02:00hrs and that they were now walking araound like zombies. Big Benny justified his position by say that he had put the fire on when he least thought people would have washing out and bearing in mind it is three fully grown men living in the has Big Benny thought they would be able to cope with a little sleep loss. Things started to kick off again in the evening with the task nearing a close and alcohol nearing an opening housemates started to respond to their surroundings and look less like the walking dead. 22:00hrs housemates have now successfully completed their first task and are called to the living room only to be sent back to the fire so Big Benny can "set up their next task". Although they were informed BB was setting up the task Big Benny was actually (as mentioned in the 18th) were adding another mic after Kirby and Rachel managed to have a whole conversation BB thought might not come out on the final tapes so we are doing it for you our lovely veiwers. todays task was observation the housemates were played three video clips and at the end they would be asked 15 questions on the clips they had just scene. Big Benny had set a pass mark of 12 and the house mates passed with 13. After their second success, House mates were rejoicing but some decided to cover up the cameras big benny takes this offence very seriously and gave Kevin his first strike! Other house mates narrowly missed a strike. The housemates now decided to cook a cheese, tomatoe and bacon pizza, which went down a storm.

18th August

BigBenny has began!!! The housemates arrived at 6pm where they were greeted,given a guided tour of the house. We only just managed to get some of the equipment sorted out in time, but later on tomorrow we will add more microphones to the house so we can clearly hear anyone whispering in the corners of the rooms!
Our housemates first task was an endurance task. BigBenny has decided to get the housemates to tidy up his garden for him. Their task is to keep a fire burning for 24 hours or until the fuel runs out (sounds familliar eh?) If they complete this task they shall be rewarded with more booze! More on the first task the housemates have to do soon.

Preparation
