Big Brother UK 10 – Week 4

There comes a point in a lot of reality shows where the person you want out, no matter how entertaining they are, need to go. I think in a lot of shows that this villain is important. Looking back on Survivor Tocantins I now see it almost crucial that Coach lasted as long as he did. Otherwise the season would have died. I don’t really consider Coach or Sree a villain but just people who were so obnoxious you couldn’t wait for them to leave. I think Sree served his purpose. He survived four weeks which was the perfect amount of exposure and then he left. I wanted him gone by the third day of the show but looking back he was extremely entertaining if extremely awful. He made a lot of really good cringeworthy moments but that being said…THANK THE LORD THAT SREE IS GONE. Oh my gosh. I didn’t doubt for a second he would go once it was announced that he and Halfwit were up for nominations but seeing how much he got booed and trying to hide his disappointed face when leaving was priceless. Plus it was great seeing Karly pissed off and Marcus and Noirin looking so pleased. How could these people like him? I know the argument always is “Well it is edited and we only see an hour out of 24 hours” but I always think that just proves their is more annoying Sreeness on the editing room floor.

Halfwit has survived yet again and I have to say it is hilarious each time. The Karly, Lisa, Kris, Charlie, and Dogface clique have no idea what is happening. They think it is a fluke and he is just up against awful people so I just cannot wait until he is up against Kris or Lisa and one of them goes. It will be absolutely brilliant. That being said I really like Halfwit, right now I like him the best, but that could easily change as the weeks continue. His place at #1 isn’t that strong with me. For a little bit I had Karly up there so Halfwit could easily fall especially with some intruders.

I still like Karly. Besides that she is deep and I mean deep in her clique/Freddie hate I can look past that and like her for the character she is. Her accent, her singing voice, her over the top facial reactions. I still really like her and hope she is around for a good amount of time and slowly her Freddie hate fizzles. Same with Sophie. She is a bit dull and a ditz but there is something charming about her.

I like the Noirin and Marcus connection and I am liking that they seem to be making an outsiders club with Siavash and Freddie. Rodrigo and Charlie have grown on me a little bit as well.

The next two people I want gone are Kris and Lisa. I’m not quite sure which one first it changes from episode to episode. Kris is just horrible and has almost no redeeming qualities…Lisa at least has maybe one or two redeemable things about her. So I guess Kris first at this point.

One thing I did really like this week was Marcus defending himself to Big Brother. I have to say the show has gotten extremely PC since the Shilpa Shetty/Jade Goody fight. Even more so then in the past two years with Big Brother stopping the fights so fast instead of letting them just fizzle out. They want to end the fight and won’t just let it unfold which is extremely frustrating. Marcus didn’t deserve to get a warning but I think the producers showed the whole thing in order for us to agree with Marcus and not with Sree.

This week is Big Brother’s birthday week so…please let us have intruders and some twists. We need them at this point and this was around where it happened last year.
