One thing that has set this season of BB apart from the rest is a dirty great hunk of scrap metal in the backyard, also known as The Combi Van.
Who came up with the idea of putting the vehicle in the backyard and getting one unlucky HM to spend their entire BB existence sleeping in it? And were they smoking the same stuff when they came up with the idea as they were in the 60s when they were driving one around?
The Combi has become a character itself, and has had a few facelifts to keep it looking fresh for its inhabitants.
When Nobbi moved in on Day 1, the Combi was proudly sporting its hippie heritage design of large brightly coloured flower decals.
During his 5th week living in the van, BB decided Nobbi required a bit more style, and the HMs pimped out the Combi with zebra stripes, matching sheets, mirror balls, and fluffy dice.
When Nobbi was finally evicted, he flipped the grenade Terri gave him and sent her packing to the backyard with Terrence to keep her company. On Day 57 the HMs rid the Combi of all trace of Nobbi and set it up for the Grey Nomads, with a fitting grey paint job, featuring designs from each of the HMs.
Terrence was then evicted and told Terri she could move back into the House, so the vacated Combi got its final redesign in a rainbow grafiti style, again with a motif from each HM, and a multicoloured row of HM hand prints to make their mark on the Van.
The van is now inhabited by Ben due to his insubordination. Will he be the Combi's final occupant?
