Rima's Fall Gives Her A Break

Rima's fall from the tilting platform in the first round of FNL last night caused her to break her leg. She is now in hospital recovering and could take several weeks to heal.

The press release issued by Ten and ESS says they will await her decision on whether to return to the House when she is up to it.

Obviously in hospital she can't be "locked down" completely. Will BB assign a minder to her? Will doctors and nurses be instructed to only communicate to her about her medical condition? Will she be in a room without a TV? Will she be secluded from fans? Will her husband be able to see her?

The decision needs to be made once she is fit to leave the hospital. If she can go home or to a hotel room, then she is fit to re-enter the house. It's not like they do much anyway. If they are going to give her several weeks to recover and then decide to go back into the house, she has too much of an advantage over the others.

I think it's all a cunning ploy to avoid her having to compete in FNL. Oh noes, broken leg! What a shame, you'll have to sit FNL out now. Convenient, no?

A bit funny that it was the first thing that happened. She had discussed through the week whether she would compete at all. Plus she even had a catcher ninja waiting for her to fall. Wonder how the ninja feels right now? "Missed it by THAT much!"

So she will return with her leg in plaster, and oh no, can't compete in FNL ever again. :-)
