blah blah blah

outbreak of nekkid jacuziness in the house tonight, possibly booze induced, constant cuts to gnomeshots make it hard to work out what's going on tho. Eugene (nice cup of tea in hand) and Science having fully clothed chat inside. Orlaith is attempting to apply lipgloss while in the pool, weirdness. OMG now she's snogging Craig! AnTHony told him to stop being gay a few minutes ago, obv he's taken it to heart.

Article in today's paper about the racial divide in the BB house:
Deprived of their booze - a constant source of worry - Saskia and Maxwell unleashed a torrent of abuse that skated close to outright racism and must have had Channel 4 management in a cold sweat. ... when he heard the new housemates' names (Eugene, Orlaith and Kinga) Maxwell worried that they "don't sound English. I wonder where they're from?". Crawley, Belfast and London, in fact. ...

Big Brother has always had ethnic-minority contestants, but the high proportion this year seems to have made racial divisions more pointed. In previous series black contestants have tended to lose out in voting against white rivals. This year, however, the public has chosen to evict white contestants, suggesting the audience is less concerned about race than a clique of the contestants.
