Big Brother ITV2 - Thread 4

[TellingBone]

Carry on Alarming

Oh sweet summer children. But perhaps I'm too much of a cynic.

On to other matters. I do agree with this Luke on Group Chat re Rochelle. On the first thread this season I recall saying that at least Rochelle was being herself - think it was when she blurted to Charlotte. And that has continued.

No way I want her to win; if only for the comment about hating feminism. But if nothing else she has been authentic unlike a lot of others.

There's no one I 'want' to win. I don't want Rochelle, Philip, Frankie, Rhianna, Omar or Twinks to win. Can see it being between Lynx and Yasmin.

Lynx having body dysmorphia explains why he got so upset about Rochelle keeping on about Yasmin’s weight

I was thinking that Yasmin should have failed that task. In the past if it was a “secret” mission then they had to do it without anyone realising. All the house knew she was up to something but she still passed. It would have been a fail in the old days.

I actually thought she was going to fail

Totally! Who was Luke Hamnett? Crap guest! They have had some great ones along the way though, so hoping we get a good one tomorrow night!

In my understanding of the word thicc, it’s really not the look Lynx is aiming for. It’s more like a bouncer’s body than gym buff.

Twinks is self-satisfied about a lot of things, and one of them is that despite being in a relationship she is free to flirt heavily with other people.

Yeah. Ultimately not concern for Yasmin but self interest, as per. (Saying that as someone who has also just said I believe he was genuine re the BDD.)

I was disappointed with Luke Hammett tonight. I follow him on IG and he’s usually great. He has a good podcast and is proper best friends with Maura Higgins. I think he has just been out to LA to watch Maura on Dancing with the Stars so maybe the GC with GL and Kate feels a bit underwhelming for him! Or he was jet lagged/ hungover. Either way, he took too long to warm up.

Twinx was shown up trying to be all cool and use the word thicc, yet got it spectacularly wrong by commenting on somebody's body. She is not as savvy as she likes to think

the creepy doll looked like Rochelle!

But was nicer.

Edited to say: oops, three post ment.

@ConstantlyFuriosa there's a phrase I've not seen for over a decade. Is it a widely used internet phrase, or did we frequent the same talk boards back in the day?

I’ve picked my final three! Lynx, Yazmin and Frankie. The friendship between Frankie and Yazmin is lovely, they are often snuggled up together and seem genuinely comfortable together. Lynx is coming across much better and last night we see a side of him that has been hiding inside all this time. Rochelle is toast on Friday and deservedly so..! Very disappointed to see Rihanna homing in on Omar again.. her sister will be screaming at the TV!!

I'm not sure who my 3 for the final are yet, but definitely NOT Philip, Rhianna, or Rochelle. And yes, Rhianna's sister will be shouting at the TV @therockingbird

I thought that too. Plus, I am a bit of an old gimmer, but does anyone use 'thicc' anymore? I feel like it hasn't been used since the early 2010s..

My final 3 would have to include Catrin but I agree with you about the friendship between Frankie and Yaz - it seems the most authentic relationship in there!

Twinks is far too overbearing and her kookiness is so contrived and irritating. Even her nickname is irritating to me.

I think Yasmin is one of the more likeable ones, but I really think that she should wear underwear in such close confines. I wonder how often they get their laundry done, or even how it's done. No mangles nowadays. I don't know how they cope living in a film set - all of that air con and lighting, so little fresh air. The bedroom really is a disgrace. The house must reek by the end of the series.

Don’t they have access to a washing machine now?

I did!!!! 😄

I'm out tonight so could someone start Thread 5 when this is nearly full? About 50 posts to go.

Is it nominations night tonight?

Nominations - they showed a clip of Rochelle’s 2nd nomination on The Group Chat last night.

Oh, I never saw that...

Looking forward to them tonight.

3 or 4 up, hopefully. Almost certainly Rochelle, hopefully Philip but not sure how many will go for him. I think Sam might be up again.

And please, no Rhianna/Omar snogging.
