Terri Turns on Travis

Terri's had some words to say about Travis lately.

In The Big Sting on Sunday night, Terri voted for Travis to be "evicted" from the House. She claimed he would not spend the prize money wisely if he won.

On Monday when they got their ironing task and were told to cover the clothing from the rain, Terri had a go at Travis for mucking around too much instead of getting a job done, which she reiterated on Tuesday.

In tonight's Family Dinner, Terri said that living with Travis is getting difficult with less people in the House to distract him.

Does she see him as her threat? Is Terri out to eliminate the competition and win?

Alice Selfish in Final Days

Did no one tell Alice how to win BB? Surely a selfish act like keeping the treadmill in the House instead of letting Terri get her care package from home, including a gift from her grandson, won't do her any favours. Couldn't she just jog around the backyard for 4 more days?

I don't think Ben's decision to buy himself and Travis their care packages and leave Terri out was selfish, because she did get a letter from home the previous week, and Ben and Travis had gotten nothing. When Terri missed out on her package, Alice and Rory both concurred that they would have sacrificed their own packages to get Terri's, but when they got the second chance to get Terri's as well in exchange for Alice's beloved treadmill, her generosity was revoked and she flat out refused to give up her luxury for Terri.

This... is Big Brother?!

He's only been the main Big Brother for one year, but he has come to be known as "the funny Big Brother" after taking over from past Big-BBs Peter Abbott (01-03) and Nick Colquhoun (04-07). So after all this time, what does BB08's BB look like?

Not what you expected, right? Leon Murray has been with BB for many years and even had some on-screen time in BB04's UpLate where he would read a poem about the events of the week every Friday night. Here's his name in the credits of BB05 UpLate as an Editor:

It's weird putting a face to the voice. Like finding out Daniel Stern was Kevin Arnold's uncredited grown-up voice in The Wonder Years, or that Drew Forsythe (who I remember from The Miraculous Mellops!) was the man behind David Tench.

Now that BB has been outed, can he go on if the show is picked up by Channel 9 next year? Or would they source their own BB voice? Surely Mr Channel 9, Eddie McGuire, could do it. "This is Big Brother... the winner of BB09 will be a quarter of a mi-yen-airre!"
