Looking more and more like the calm before the storm…
This week’s shopping task involved the recreation of the video for “Here It Goes Again” by the band “OK Go”, as we were informed about 17 times over the course of the hour by Marcus Bentley, presumably because the opportunity to have a good old laugh at him saying “Err-kay gerr” in his erm…unique accent was too much to pass up. After Rachel’s finger boo-boo, talk turned to who would take her place.
Turns out it was Rex, confounding yet again those of us hoping that Bex would get her day in the sun. Naturally Luke saw this as an opportunity to wedge his oar in about how Rex was only doing it to look good and stay out of the firing line for nominations. I would say that he was pushing his anti-B-Block agenda too hard now, but his stirring was mostly directed at Mario whose two brain-cells are already working overdrive to make sure that nobody slips on a wet floor or accidentally cuts themselves on the edges of a particular sharp piece of paper, so I doubt he’ll be rumbled to any significant degree.
Of coruse Rex didn’t help matters by being a bit shit to begin with. And then, just as it looked like he was beginning to get the hang of things, the group were robbed of their choreographer in chief, as Dennis got carted off to jail with Darnell for discussing nominations (yet another opportunity for Luke to attack a B-Blocker and take out one of his own expendable allies in the process) and there was NOBODY LEFT WHO COULD WORK THE DVD PLAYER?! WHAT WOULD HAPPEN?!
Well what always happens with Big Brother creative performance tasks – they made a bit of a hash of it, but passed anyway. Between Sylvia stumbling around like a new-born giraffe, Rex being completely unfamiliar with the concept of doing things on cue, and Dale hollering “OUT OF THE WAY YOU DICK!” (Not actually in the original lyrics) that really should have been a fail (Stuart probably did some things wrong as well. If he’s still in the house. To be honest I can’t really tell), but hey at least this hopefully means less food arguments for the week, and it WAS a fairly amusing task, meaning we are officially miles ahead of where BB8 was at this time in terms of tasks.
Also Dale looked nice in his trousers.
In other news : Mikey eating peanut butter became the new “Two Girls – One Cup” ; Sylvia decided to go out in a blaze of glory by whirling around dancing, and starting and stopping fights seemingly at random ; Rebecca’s arse was the topic of much conversation ; Dennis spat in Mohamed’s face and got removed.
Oh wait, that last one was tonight.
