Big Brother: Who Is Out Tonight? August 7, 2009

Posted by Ruth in : Ruth's Ramblings, TV , 2comments

I am most excited by the fact that EVERYONE is up for eviction this week, so, as the housemates have quite rightly already pointed out, the person who goes tonight is the most disliked person in the house!

Personally I’d love Marcus or Bea to get the boot, simpley because Marcus is just WAY too creepy for words when it comes to leeching over women, and he crosses the ‘line’ on a daily basis! As for Bea, well where do I start, she’s clearly watched the show and knows how to play the ‘game’ and the camera’s. it’s as if she knows what will make it into the show and makes sure she gets involved in it.

I know a lot of you want to see the back of Lisa or David as well, but let’s face it, they’re pretty harmless, yes they can be annoying and whine a lot, but Lisa has NEVER been up for eviction before, and this week should be a nice week to break her in gently.

Besides, I’m hoping it’s a double eviction tonight, because I’ve never known Big Brother ‘save’ housemates before until the last few weeks, so I’m wondering whether there’s some interesting twist coming out tonight…

Finally though you guys have been voting all week on who you want to wave bye bye to this evening and your results are below… but do you agree, personally Sophie and Siavash are my favourites so I’m pretty stoked you agree!

All The Housemates Are Up… But Who Will You Save?

1. Bea Is Brilliant – 8 – 4.94%
2. Charlie Is The Champion – 21 – 12.96%
3. Freddie / Halfwit Is Fantastic – 14 – 8.64%
4. David Is Divine – 4 – 2.47%
5. Hira Is My Hero – 14 – 8.64%
6. Lisa Is Lovely – 18 – 11.11%
7. Marcus Is A Must – 11 – 6.79%
8. Rodrigo Rules! – 13 – 8.02%
9. Siavash To Stay – 24 – 14.81%
10. Sophie / Dogface Is Right Up My Street – 34 – 20.99%

Big Brother – Who’s Out Tonight? July 10, 2009

I can’t believe how quickly this weeks eviction has come around… It only seems like 2 minutes since I was using the office phone to constantly vote for Sree whilst I was supposed to have been working.

This week though, you will be happy to know that I have not spent all my hours on the phone to Channel 4’s voting lines, but preparing for my Band Wars event and looking after my new baby rabbit Geoffery.

Anyway, back to the point in hand, this week Sophie, Kris, Charlie, Marcus and Freddie are up for the chop tonight, and I want to know who we want to be having the Davina interrogation later tonight.

First, and most obviously, I hope it’s not Freddie, because as annoying as he may be to live with, I still proper love how he’s managed to cope with being up for eviction every week since nominations began and now I’m gunning for him to make it to the final week.

But who do I want to be packing their suitcase then? Well it’s got to be Marcus hasn’t it? He’s paying a nasty little game and he is turning into the new Sree in my opinion, constantly leering after Noirin and making everyone feel incredibly uncomfortable.

I don’t know what it is about him, but he looks like one of those dirty old men who smell of sweat all the time and stare at you, without looking away, and don’t ever get the message that you’re not interested in their sleazy chat-up lines.

Plus, I love Charlie because he’s hilarious and I want to see him and Rodrigo fall in love, and Kris and Sophie are so cute to watch… J

I think I love Big Brother’s Halfwit June 22, 2009

Posted by Ruth in : Ruth's Ramblings, TV , 2comments

I know you’re probably going to hate me for saying this, but you know, I’m becoming increasingly fond of Big Brother’s Halfwit / Freddie… and I just can’t keep a lid on it anymore.

When he first went into the house I thought he was pretty good-looking… I mean, I know he’s not a conventional ‘pretty boy’ like Kris or Rodrigo (who I wouldn’t kick out of bed in a hurry) but there’s just something about him that is really growing on me.

Whether it’s the way he tries so hard (and always fails) to fit in with the group, or the way the housemates make fun of him when he’s not around, but I just want to snuggling him up in my arms and take care of him!

I know I’d probably want to get away from him if I had to spend any long period of time with him, as I imagine he can get pretty tiresome with his posh boy ways and voice, but still I just think he’s lovely.

So come on, are there any other closet Halfwit lovers out there?

Big Brother 2009: Is It Worth It? June 17, 2009

Posted by Ruth in : Ruth's Ramblings, TV , add a comment

Well you’ve heard the reports this year, that Big Brother isn’t doing as well as it has done in previous years, but is it the housemates or the show itself that’s sent ratings crashing?

Let’s be honest, the inmates this year aren’t quite as mental as they have been in the past, in fact, most of them just seem like fame-hungry wannabe’s than the types of people you’d cross the street to avoid.

I mean where’s the annoying Charlie-alike? Or the nasty Nick Character? Or even the token couple like Mario and Lisa? Nothing, just loads of plain housemates, who, for the most part, are only in their for their looks.

To be honest, I’d rather have a bunch of stereotypically ‘ugly’ people in there if it meant we were going to get some real action rather than watching 12 people preening themselves in the mirrors and setting up fake romances to try and hook in a few extra votes.

I’ve got to admit, I love Big Brother, and I’d love to be a contestant, and as much as it’s awful to say “I wish they’d argue” let’s face it, we’d rather see another Chantelle Vs Charlie Vs Ziggy battle all over again than the housemates only arguing about Halfwit making too much salad.

The only really entertainment is watching Sree piss everyone off by coming onto Noirin and telling her that he’s in love with her, telling Karly she dresses too slutty and generally annoying the lads with his lack of social skills.

But what do you think about this year’s lot? Are you still tuning in?

Big Brother: Day 7 June 10, 2009

Posted by Ruth in : Ruth's Ramblings, TV , 1 comment so far

Big Brother seems to be taking over my life at the minute, but not as much as the fifteen housemates living in the house I guess. So, what have they been getting up to?

Well, Sree is branded annoying by his housemates, Karly is bored of the show already, Noirin reveals she was bedded on ‘The Real World’ and Sophie chats about her fake boobs. Brilliant.

Sree branded annoying

We al saw in last night’s show that Sree had started to rub his housemates up the wrong way, and in the latest Sree(m), – see what I did there… mixed Sree and scream? – anyway, Marcus AKA Wolverine last night vented his frustrations about Sree to Angel, Lisa and Kris calling him an annoying little brother.

Karly: ‘I’m bored out of my mind’

I would have thought that a piece of dust or a small marble would keep airhead Karly entertained, but it seems that she’s bored already, after just one week in the house!

The glamour girl told wannabe gangsta Cairon about her woes whilst they were in the garden, saying; “I’ve been bored out of my mind today, I keep thinking I could be in New York right now, with my boyfriend or with my family and I’m stuck in this house, bored out of my brains and with people I don’t even like.”

Weirdly though, Karly doesn’t live in New York, and she also told us in her VT before she entered the house that she would like to meet a footballer so she does not have to work.

Erm, is it just me but doesn’t she realise that her boyfriend would have seen that? Talk about a dumb blonde… oh, and you’re bored Karly? Well this is Big Brother 10, how you ever watched the show before?

Noirin Had Sex On ‘The Real World’

Noirin might not be so new to reality TV as she makes out, as it has come to light that she actually appeared on The Real World Sydney in 2007 as Isaac Stout’s girlfriend.

And she didn’t just ‘keep it real’ either, in one of the shows the pair spent quite a while in the hot tub before making their way to the bedroom hours later – I just hope they didn’t have wrinkly fingers and toes.
Sophie Talks About Boobs

Sophie, always wanting to discuss the important things in life, cured her boredom by explaining to her housemates that her breast implants are just “six-months-old”.

During a casual chat over the dinner table, crazy Angel asked Miss Pretty when she has her boobs done, to which she revealed that it had been in December “just gone”. To with her fellow airhead Karly asked, “Are they still healing?”

“Some people say it takes six months for them to properly shape,” Sophie replied, but apparently if she looks after them properly, the implants will last her ten years. Wow, you learn something new every day.

Big Brother Day 6: Karly Thinks She’s The Sexiest Person In The House…. What?! June 9, 2009

Posted by Ruth in : Ruth's Ramblings, TV , 1 comment so far

We knew it wouldn’t be long until people started arguing, sniping and of course bawling out *ahem* crocodile *ahem*  tears

Yes boys and girls, Sree has proven that he’s the man to watch for foot-in-mouth comments after he told Karly that he was worried about how the public would perceive her image on the show after she wore a provocative outfit for a Moulin Rouge theme.

Now, we all can tell that Sree fancies Karly but maybe asking her to cover up before they’ve even been on a date might be a little forward? He told her; “It’s fair enough if you want to show the audience and the public, that’s you. It’s nothing to get upset about,” said Sree. Karly then started crying and sat on his lap for a hug – convenient.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry, no need to cry,” he said, all the whilst hoping she’d continue to ball her eyes out and he could enjoy her shaking (due to the crying obviously) on his lap for as long as possible.

However, it wasn’t long before Karly shot down poor old Sree’s advances by pointing out that she wanted to dress for herself and not for others, and insisted she was upset about missing her boyfriend. But clearly not taking the hint, he told her; “I don’t want any idiots talking about you.”

Although, I nearly feel off my chair when Karly replied: “That’s what me and Sophie are about – we’re the sexy girls in the house. We’re masking what our true personality is. I respect that. But I’m crying because I miss my boyfriend,” err, hello, but don’t you think you’re a bit big-headed with that statement love? Personally I think Saffia is much sexier than you.
