When It Reigns, It ReignsSo Rodrigo thinks he's met the Queen of England, the housemates are listening to Rodrigo talk about meeting the Queen of England, and in the Diary Room, a Queen of England impersonator has met Rodrigo. We don't know who's more pleased.
Coming out of the Task room tea room, Rodrigo recounted his experience at 20 words a second.
Meanwhile in the Diary Room, regal impersonator Janette Charles had only good words to say about Rodrigo. "Rodrigo is the type of man that all countries need for the future," she told Big Brother. "I found him articulate and he adores this country. I don't get many opportunities to talk to young people, so it was a delight."
Hang on, it wasn't really the Queen was it?
Out in the Living Area Rodrigo was talking excitedly ten to the dozen. It's a shame that Big Brother will have to burst his bubble later on.
"I was nervous," said Rodrigo.
"Did you pour her another cup of tea?" asked Lisa. "Did she dunk a biscuit?"
"I didn't even put sugar in my tea, I was that nervous," giggled Rodrigo.
Outside in the garden, Bea, Lisa and David had other views, about whether or not anyone should tell Rodrigo it was all a bit of fun. Halfwit had already told them that is was up to Big Brother to break the news, but if BB didn't, then no-one should. But Bea wasn't having it.
"He said whoever tells him, he's going to be really upset. But if we clap and cheer he won't be," said David. "He's making out we'll do it in a negative way to make Rodrigo feel really upset."
"I don't agree we should wait until the shows over," said Bea. "This means so much to Rodrigo, everyone else knows she's not the real Queen and the only one who doesn't know is Rodrigo."
"I think he'll see the funny side," reckoned Lisa.
"Freddie is saying no he won't," added Bea. "He's saying Rodrigo will be really upset. I'm willing to be dishonest for three hours with him to pass the task. But not three weeks. It's not fair."
"We should tell him today," agreed Lisa.
But will they??
