Why does Alexandra need olive oil to stop her hair falling out?? I've never known an Black person to use olive oil and they have full heads of hair!

Just watching the repeat. Mario to Darnell - "I'm a facilitator. I manage people" Pure David Brent

I think Mikey is getting pissed of with Mario, although he won't say anything because they are friends.

lazarou · 15/06/2008 22:51

I think that was a shitty thing for Mikey to say about jen.

He said that she wouldn't dress up as a bunny, but she would get shagged in bed. He was talking about her relationship with Dale. Then he said 'I wonder what her daughter would think of that'

wuzzlefraggle · 16/06/2008 09:13

LOL wheresthehamster! in a few days I expect that his other half will be saying about her time in the T.A.

Servalan · 16/06/2008 09:42

I didn't catch Mikey saying that about what Jen's daughter would think - well out of order!

I got irritated when he talked about double standards between "not dressing up as a bunny" and "getting shagged in bed".

It's a completely different issue!

I'm very glad that the women in the house refused Big Brother's request for them to dress up in bunny outfits (presumably to titilate the men)on the fake "stag night". It increased my respect for them.

If Jen eventually decides she wants to have a relationship with Dale in the house, then that is HER CHOICE - not a Big Brother request.

Ditto the nastiness coming from Marco a couple of days ago when Jen and Stephanie wanted to dress up as cheeky girls, going on about how degrading it was and why didn't Jen dress up as a bunny.

Again - if Jen decides, out of her own choice, to dress up as a cheeky girl then fair enough IMO. It's a world of difference choosing to do that for a bit of a laugh, and dressing in a bunny outfit because Big Brother says so.

Servalan · 16/06/2008 09:49

I'm loving Darnell too. Marco was being such an arse (for a change) in the instrument task. I'm amazed Darnell kept his cool.

And WTF was that about people trying to get Mikey to choose the triangle (because obviously being blind means that he can't possibly learn a more taxing musical instrument ). Marco's language around that was so disempowering. How about quietly asking Mikey what the case is rather than speaking for him and putting him on the spot like that.

I have never shouted at the TV so much during a Big Brother series .

Servalan · 16/06/2008 09:50

WTF am I calling him Marco?

Mario I mean - Mario, Mario, Mario.

(I'm obviously trying to blot him out of my subconscious).

lazarou · 16/06/2008 10:00

Well, there was a housemate called marco in a previous big brother.

Yes, Mario is not a nice person. He thinks he's fooling people. Or maybe that is just the way he is, and he actually believes everything he says. In that case, he most definitely is David Brent. Although, David Brent had some redeeming qualities, Mario has none.

SummatAndNowt · 16/06/2008 10:59

I think Darnell is fab! He seems to understand people really well. Plus he actually remembered the argument he had accurately, so many times on BB when people are recounting their arguments to other people it's like they're just making it all up!

I get rage inside everytime I see "Mario", up his own arse doesn't begin to describe. I also find his behaviour towards Mikey very patronising.

Raahh · 16/06/2008 12:38

ooh, i was getting with mario over the choosing of instruments, so much so that i CHOSE to turn over and WATCH THE FOOTBALL!!!! ( which was very entertaining, as it happens!).

Mikey was not blind from birth, has lived perfectly happily- before he met you, mario, so ffs, leave him alone. That said, his comment to Jen was out of order, and i think he is well aware that as he is blind few people will stand up to him ( tho Alex and Sylvia have)

If Mario is up for eviction this week, even if he against Alex, I have a feeling that he might go.

Chickenmamma · 16/06/2008 16:51

I find Mikey's comments about Jen a bit creepy too. He seems a bit misogynistic to me. Why does he assume that she will have sex with Dale in the house. She seems like the last person in there that would do that

finallypregnant · 16/06/2008 17:52

Oh, I have just found this thread. Mario drove me nuts last night. Hopefully he'll be up for nomination this week. As for Liza, what the hell was she wearing "yikes".

I too didn't like Mikey's comments about Dale and Jen. Out of order.

posieflump · 16/06/2008 17:57

it says in the Dai;ly Mail that Steph might be going back in as there was a problem with the phone lines!!

Raahh · 16/06/2008 18:09

please, no. Wrong result, must be the phone lines. I hate it when they put housemates back in , for whatever reason.

wotulookinat · 16/06/2008 18:13

I felt sorry for Mario when Steph was being a spoilt brat last week and not trying hard enough at the task but he has annoyed me know with all his 'Ive got a massive fan-base' crap.

VictorianSqualor · 16/06/2008 18:23

If you were steph would you not feel odd though?
I'd have been well creeped out at him continuing the task bollocks when we were alone.
And just Ewwwwwwwwwwwww.

wotulookinat · 16/06/2008 18:27

Nah, he was just getting into the spirit of things.

wheresthehamster · 16/06/2008 18:39

I doubt that Mario would have thrown himself into the task had the situation been reversed. i.e. Steph had been a sixty year old dog. I bet no one would say HE didn't try hard enough in that case.

wotulookinat · 16/06/2008 19:04

Well she was hardly Miss World, was she?

chocolateshoes · 16/06/2008 19:49

They did the nominations this afternoon - does anyone know the results - can't wait til tomorrow! (I'm so sad emoticon!!)

wotulookinat · 16/06/2008 20:09

I reckon it'll be Alex, Mario and Sylvia.

chocolateshoes · 16/06/2008 20:54

I'd be disappointed of not Alex, Mario....poss Lisa, poss Rex
