Ello...

No live feed until after 1am, although maybe Marcus will still be up.

Calrissian: True Blood

Godric is no more.

oh dear, it would seem, they are all dead on arrival.

Calrissian:

Dramatic action in the house.

Something fell off the wall above Sophie..it almost....fell on her.

The sleeping continues, despite this dramatic development.

Calrissian:

Marcus is up!
..and is suggesting someone (the camera?) get some 'frakking tixi licks'?

Bosom Buddies

Over the weeks, friendships and relationships have blossomed and died in the House, but there is one relationship that has continued to endure, and it's quite a subtle one – Sophie and Rodrigo. Perhaps it's because they aren't engaged in some snogathaon or a destructive love/hate row that people don't notice them. But look carefully and they'll never be far from each other, sniggering and gossiping. And because of this union they're pretty worried about who might be up for nomination.

"We find out about nominations today," said Sophie quietly as she did her make-up. "You'll be fine even if you're up for eviction. They only vote for people who've done stuff," she added to Rodrigo.

"I've argued and stuff," said Rodrigo, probably referring to his many fallouts with Charlie.

"You haven't argued, you've just stuck up for things you've believed in," Sophie reassured him.

Then it was time for a bit of 'I don't want you to go' mutual massaging which is always sweet.

"We should go out on the same day – could you imagine!" suggested Sophie.

Imagine that? Stranger things have happened…

On a Role

Okay, imagine this scenario and see if you can guess who the housemate is who's been called to the Diary Room. "Gabble, gabble, gabble, Headless Horseman, gabble, gabble, gabble, Dr Frankenstein, gabble, gabble, gabble…

It was all Big Brother could do to squeeze in a "Hello Charlie," to which the verbally prolific housemate manage to reply "hello back."

For this week’s Shopping Task, the Big Brother House will be turned into The House of Horrors, with each housemate taking on terribly scary roles. All Big Brother needed was to establish which housemate would be taking which role in the upcoming Task, without revealing what the Task actually was.

"Once you have decided which housemates are taking part in which Task, housemates are not allowed to change their mind," Big Brother reminded Charlie sternly.

"I want something good, because last week my role in the Task wasn't very good. I want something challenging, really challenging," Charlie gabbled on, before answering Big Brother's questions.

"Rodrigo and Sophie are going to be the vampires," Charlie revealed.

"Lisa and Siavash are going to become werewolves, but Siavash is so hairy he probably won't have to wear a uniform," Charlie added. "I'm just joking, but he is really hairy though – he's got a hair back and a hairy *** and everything."

"Marcus is going to become the headless horseman," he added, "and David wants to become the skeleton."

"And Dr Frankenstein?" asked Big Brother. "That's me. I'm Dr Frankenstein apparently. I don't know what I've got to do though – I hope it's really, really good."

"Can you now confirm who will take the role of Frankenstein's monster," asked Big Brother.

"Bea's the monster," replied Charlie, "Frankenstein's monster."

"I think it's absolutely great this Task, even this is absolutely great," he said pointing at the blackboard. "It's absolutely great and the little book and everything, it's great this Task. Thank you so much, I think it's absolutely great."

Is it safe to presume this Task is 'absolutely great' before you know exactly what it is Charlie?

TASK: Big Brother's House of Horrors

For this week’s shopping Task, the housemates will inhabit the Big Brother House of Horrors. Come out from behind your sofa’s now, as this is how it’s going to work…

The task will consist of four separate challenges and one group challenge. If the housemates pass 3 or more of the 5 challenges they will receive a luxury budget of £5 per head per day.

So, what are the roles and what are the challenges?

WEREWOLVES
Big Brother will place two rocks in the Living Room . Throughout the evening and night, until 2am Big Brother will play the sound of a werewolf howling over the tannoy. Upon hearing this, they have 75 seconds to get on the rock, outstretch their arms for ten seconds, then remove their outer costumes to reveal there inner costume (werewolf suit) underneath. They must also howl like a wolf until they hear the sound of birds tweeting. If the Werewolves fail to complete these instructions , they will fail their part of this week's Task.

VAMPIRES
The two Vampires will take part in a challenge today. Vampires like to hang around in cemeteries, upside down. In the garden is a church roof. To pass the challenge each vampire must hang upside from the church roof, attached only by their legs, for a total of seven minutes.

SKELETON & HEADLESS HORSEMAN
The Skeleton and Headless Horseman will take part in a challenge tomorrow. So keeping checking back to find out what horror awaits them.

MUMMIES
One housemate will take part in a mummy challenge that will take place tomorrow.

DR FRANKENSTEIN & FRANKENSTEIN'S MONSTER
Dr Frankenstein and Frankenstein's Monster will take part in a scientific experiment today. A room in the House has been converted into a laboratory with two tables. On one is a corpse, containing body parts that must be surgically removed by Dr Frankenstein using the metal tools provided. Each body part is sat in a wire mesh.

In the lab is also a set of stimulator pads. These must be attached to Frankenstein's Monster's buttocks. If, when attempting to remove a body part, Dr Frankenstein touches the wire mesh with a surgical tool, a buzzer will sound and Frankenstein's Monster will receive a sharp shock. Each time the buzzer sounds, Dr Frankenstein must replace the body part, but may re-attempt to remove it. Dr Frankenstein must remove eight of the ten body parts in order to pass their part of the shopping Task.

GHOST TRAIN
Throughout today and tomorrow a ghost train will travel through the Big Brother garden. On the sound of the train whistle, all of the housemates must walk around the garden like zombies until the whistle sounds again, once the Ghost train has left the garden. The housemates must incur no more than 3 fails in order to pass this part of the Task.

That's a rather good task, thought they'd have given up by now Shame that it'll get support for Charlie, who doesn't want to see Bea get zapped after all.

According to Channel 4's schedule, there will be a midweek eviction (bet the HMs willl never see that coming! ) on Tuesday 1st September with the final on the 4th.
