Noirin v Siavash

Last night they were at it like rabbits.

No, Kris and Sophie didn't finally get down and do it. What happened was that Siavash told Noirin that she jumped from group to group like a rabbit. Or rather, he said that's what he thought the others thought.

Nothing wrong with that in my book. It's a gameshow, and you're trying to be popular. But she didn't like it. She's got a tendency to panic and she's already taken against Siavash lately, and this was the excuse she needed. Noirin launched into him, presumably expecting everyone else to back her. However, the new-improved Superconfident Freddie gave her what for.

He's like a reverse Samson. Chop off his hair, and he gets the power.

Take a look quick, before it's taken down. Warning: contains strong language:

She's playing a dangerous game. Even Marcus didn't back her.

So what's going on? She's worrying, that's what. Noirin has indeed hopped around like a rabbit. All her nominations are essentially tactical. We know Sree was annoying her more than Freddie was in week four, yet she picked Fred.

Although four of them are up this week, she has already decided that Marcus is going. Her biggest ally is about to go, and she wants to get in with the Lisa Crew. Further, by picking a fight with Siavash she hopes he gets nominated next week.

One of the side-effects of this weeks' nominations results was that they all know who would have been up if Kris, Charlie and Sophie hadn't broken the rules: Marcus and Freddie. Which means, more than likely, those two, even if they survived, are very likely going to be up again next week. But if Marcus goes it means the Lisa Crew are going to have to line up someone else to fight Freddie. She fears it could be her, and wants it to be Siavash. It might even happen.

During last night's shoutfest Siavash told the others to put them both up, to see what the public think.

That's a rule break, isn't it?

And there I was thinking what a nice show this had become again. When a lot of people are up for eviction, rather than the usual two, the group often unites. They don't feel quite so paranoid, and there's a demob happy atmosphere. They may as well enjoy their last few days in the house.

They were being particularly nice to Freddie too, telling him how handsome he was. This isn't just because they've suddenly discovered his cuddly side. As the nomination results were played to the house, there was a sigh from the BBLB studio audience. Noirin commented on it immediately after, though this wasn't shown on the highlights.

Must have been deliberate. Why else would BBLB have an audio link to the BB house? They want them to know Freddie's liked.

The HMs will know more tomorrow night when Kris gets his P45. Especially when the likes of Nikki ( boo! ) go back in the house, if even for a day. She won't be able to keep her trap shut about who's popular and who isn't.

Noirin's going to do some serious backtracking the moment Kris leaves. She won't be the only one.
