Task: Ole Bamboo

For this week's Shopping Task, the housemates must learn and perform a dance routine to the song ‘Ole Bamboo' from the stage show Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Cairon went to the Diary Room to collect the instructions which he read out to the housemates. Quite a few pages of instructions later, the housemates knew what had to be done.

One housemate must take on the role of ‘Lead Dancer', while the remaining housemates will split themselves into three groups of four. In order to pass the task, each group will have their own section of the routine that they will have to learn and perform with the Lead Dancer. The Lead Dancer will learn and perform the entire routine. The Lead Dancer and all groups will perform together for the final section of the routine.

The final performance will take place tomorrow. In order to pass their Shopping Task, the Lead Dancer and each group will have to learn and perform the entire routine to the satisfaction of Big Brother.

After hearing what they had to do, the housemates gathered to watch a video of the dance, which we can tell you is pretty energetic. Charlie couldn't help but dance along, grinning from ear to ear, and Siavash was quick to nominate him as Lead Dancer.

"You're gonna work hard yeah?" he asked Charlie seriously.

Charlie nodded as solemnly as if his life depended on it.

"This is the best kind of Task. It's very achievable, and dancing is fun!" said Halfwit with his usual enthusiasm.

But is it achievable? We'll soon find out...

Task Tension

There's been drama in the House since the Ole Bamboo Task was announced. Soon afterwards, Marcus took it upon himself to tell Sree that if he messed about during the Task, there would be trouble. This triggered an argument that looks like it will run and run... and having been the subject of a prank last night as well, Sree is not a happy housemate.

As they hung out in the Bedroom after the Task row, Karly asked, "What happened with your bed last night?"

And what did happen? Well, Cairon and Siavash hid his mattress for a joke. But Sree doesn't seem to have seen the funny side.

"Don't worry Karly, people are stupid and they think they're at school," spat Sree. "I'm not moaning, but they've got not respect. They have no manners."

Moments later he was confronted by the mattress thieves themselves, who wanted to sort out his argument with Marcus over the Task. This provoked a full-scale rant from Sree.

"I've been to school and I've learned dance and I have a professional certificate," Sree informed Cairon. "However, this is not the time to show off who is good and who is bad. This is the time for everyone to put their arse down and practice for two days."

Cairon didn't really seem to be listening. "It's not about certificates and ****!" he replied. "In here it means we've got to do what the **** we've got to do to eat! We're ******* starving dude!"

"Exactly. Thank you very much," agreed Sree grumpily.

Team Leader Charlie was on hand to try and smooth things over with a Task pep talk. "Everybody just take it 100 per cent serious," he said calmly. "Just do the best you can do, that's all you can do. Just be together as a group."

At least Karly was feeling sorry for Sree. She told Dogface, "It's a shame, because [Marcus] has put Sree down before he's even started. It's not fair."
