Big Brother Australia – Sun 6:30pm, Mon-Fri 7pm, Ch9
http://www.bigbrother.com.au/
Welcome to the 11th Big Brother eviction for 2012! Up for the chop tonight, STACEY, BENJAMIN and ESTELLE. Who will go? All will be revealed in tonight’s Big Brother recap!
An opening sizzler rolls as usual to warm us up for tonight’s evictorial ceremony.
Opening titles roll and Sonia is now on stage.
In a cheer gauge, Stacey comes up on top, followed up in second is Estelle and then Benjamin. The cheers are crazy, three very popular characters in this years’ season.
The percentages of SAVE votes are revealed at this point in the program. But of course, we do not know who these percentages belong to.
46% – ?
30% – ?
24% – ?
We now watch a reflection reel of this week in the Big Brother house.
And now it’s time for some house action!
Estelle and Sam are in the gym area working out, joking about Estelle’s fat rolls, that don’t really exist. Zoe watches on.
In the bedroom, Zoe and Layla are chatting about Estelle. Layla is worried that Estelle has been flirting with Sam.
Zoe visits the diary room, telling Big Brother about Layla’s concern.
In the backyard, housemates Stacey and Michael race each other with the assistance of Big Brother as timekeeper. Stacey runs just over 10 seconds in her lap around the pool. Michael beats it, just over 8 seconds. Big Brother announces a summer surprise in the kitchen hatch, watermelon baskets, made out of carved watermelon, filled with chopped watermelon.
AD BREAK
We’re back in the house for some more house action. Estelle is making weird noises (what’s new?), but for once is entertaining other housemates with those noises, Michael confused as to how Estelle actually made that noise.
Sonia announces that voting lines have now closed.
More house action! Big Brother announces that he is in a nice mood, and calls Sam and Estelle to the nice corner, much to Layla’s dismay. Estelle and Sam pamper each other with foot massages. Stacey and Layla look on from the backyard through the doors, talking about the flirting Estelle has been doing with Sam.
Layla visits the diary room, giving Big Brother the evil-eye for him putting Sam in the nice corner with Estelle.
Sonia throws us to an AD BREAK.
We’re back! We reflect on Benjamin’s week being nominated, and his feelings.
It’s time for more house action. Benjamin collects mail from the mailboxes placed in the backyard for each housemate. Benjamin retrieved mail for Michael, which was a pass for a Thai dinner for two. Michael visits the diary room, expressing his confusion when deciding who he will share some Thai food with. Stacey makes up the decision for him, saying that she is on a detox currently.
The Thai food is delivered, as the rest of the housemates are preparing food for themselves from their staple food budget. Once they finish their meal, they retire to the pods in the backyard, sitting in each other’s arms together watching the stars. Zoe comes over to chat, but it is evident that seeing her beloved Michael close with Estelle was upsetting her.
Benjamin walks past to say goodnight to Zoe, Estelle and Michael. He enters the bedroom where he finds Stacey.
Benjamin: “Did you see Michael all over Estelle?”
Stacey: “He’s trying to play it cool.”
Benjamin: “He said to me, that he’s like, ‘I don’t like her’.”
Benjamin: “I said like, he doesn’t like her as a person?”
Stacey: “Really?”
Benjamin: “And then now he’s like…”
Stacey: “They’re BFFs.”
Michael kisses Estelle good night, multiple times, right in front of Zoe.
Stacey’s week of being nominated reflection package rolls.
AD BREAK
Estelle’s week of being nominated reflection package rolls.
Sonia welcomes us back, and now talks to the house. Sonia asks questions to each of the nominees.
Sonia reveals that there have been more SAVE votes in this week’s eviction alone, and that the person with the lowest votes would have been safe in any other eviction of the series.
The first housemate SAFE tonight is ESTELLE. Just kill me.
AD BREAK.
We’re back, and the writer of this post is not writing in a positive resolve right now.
Sonia crosses to the house, and is now going to reveal who is SAFE, and who is EVICTED tonight. After receiving the least votes to save them, it’s time to go… STACEY. Feck this show.
Stacey is given the 10 second call by Big Brother, now evicted from the Big Brother house.
She leaves the house, and Sonia calls her up on stage.
Stacey worries that audience can see up her dress.
The final voting tally:
46% – Estelle
30% – Benjamin
24% – Stacey
Stacey wonders why Estelle would have received the most votes.
It’s time to find out who nominated Stacey this week. Zoe, Sam’s mum, and Layla’s super power which knocked Sam out of the nominations firing line.
We now watch a package of the Stacey and Benjamin friendship that has just constantly evolved from the beginning, well kind of. It was mainly footage of housemates complaining about Stacey not giving a lot of space to talk.
AD BREAK
We come back, with a package of every time Stacey greeted Big Brother in the diary room.
Stacey’s KFC TOP 3 SO GOOD MOMENTS:
#3 – ‘Delilah’s BFF’
#2 – ‘Mrs Ryan Gosling’
#1. – ‘Killing the Tofu’
And it’s time for Stacey’s best bits VT.
Stacey reveals that she would love Benjamin to win, but things that either Benjamin or Layla will win, and does not want to give Estelle any gratification. You go girl!
Sonia announces that all votes are now to WIN. Voting numbers roll.
It’s the end. Don’t talk to me.
You can follow me on Twitter, @haydenww.
Meep ya’ later.
I saw it a completely different way. Stacey never revealed the real her, all the time she was acting, trying to be funny and amusing, but totally fake.
To come out and bag one of your housemates was nasty and showed Stacey in a poor light, and to question why people would vote for Estelle is saying that the viewers are too dumb to know any better and thats putting us down too.
Did she realise that it was Zoe who nominated her in the first place, not Estelle, so why blame her?
Zoe was never going to get Michael, he probably can’t stand her unwelcome attentions so whats wrong with Estelle just trying to be friends with the guys, it is possible you know to be friends.
She’s put up with crap and bitchiness for weeks from everyone and still she remains optimistic and friendly, wheras Ben, michael, Stacey and Zoe have shown what spiteful, nasty people they are.
You go Estelle, you deserve to win!
If we reel it back for a bit. Stacey has absolutely revealed the real her. In the research I’ve done on her, she is a fun, loving person who does like to joke around. That was absolutely exhibited by her in the house.
When she left the house and said “why?”, she was literally saying what many viewers were saying. If we look from her point of view, she’s very much privy to the rest of the 24 hours we don’t get to see within the family friendly, 1 hour episode each day. She knows what Estelle is like, and it is evident that others feel the same way when Zoe broke the horse owned by Big Brother that Estelle played with because she was unhappy that Estelle was still in the house. If you remember, Zoe was very much an advocate for Estelle and supported Estelle, in hopes they would all get along. It’s clear that Estelle has worn her thin. Last night, Layla and Sam revealed that they are sick of Estelle as well, another two advocates for Estelle.
Stacey saying “why?” just shows how honest Stacey is, and she should be applauded for being totally honest on national TV, rather than the false comments of love by previously evicted housemates, who had been in tough times against Estelle during their time in the house.
She also never blamed Estelle for her nomination, she basically didn’t like her. That’s it, Estelle grated on her.
She never actually got anything bad from any of the housemates, unless they directly had a chat to her about it. She had arguments with Angie because they were both as bad as each other, she’s had discussions with Benjamin because he was concerned about the house not actually meeting Ava. She’s not been bullied. We also need to separate what is bitching, and what is just pure honesty. Upon review, I’ve found that Benjamin and Stacey, umong other housemates have been incredibly honest when talking about housemates. Reminder: Housemates are allowed to talk about other housemates, that’s what the show is about, and it’s also human nature. I’m sure you talk about others, and I’m sure you’re honest with them, right? Well that is what goes on in the house.
Um, hold up a bit.
“still she remains optimistic and friendly, wheras Ben, michael, Stacey and Zoe have shown what spiteful, nasty people they are.”
She is not a real person whatsoever. She whinges about not having money, but she has range rovers and her family distributed flyers with the voting numbers to save Estelle this week. She says that she doesn’t bitch about others, but in a conversation last week, she was literally bitching about others bitching. Hypocrite. You said that Benjamin, Michael, Stacey and Zoe are spiteful, nasty people… but is it because they actually entertain people, and are honest in their feelings about other people and are actually fulfilling their time in the house by being entertaining and REAL PEOPLE?
I don’t see Estelle to be deserving of winning, but I’m sure she will win anyway.
She does nothing to entertain, she has played the ‘woe is me’ card throughout the whole competition, she is hypocritical, she has so many personalities that does not make her interesting, but means that she is never real because she’s multiple people. I would feel frustrated living in the house with Estelle. She has relied on sympathy to get where she is today, and it is shocking that the viewing public isn’t smart enough to see the real situation in the house, and rather sit there and say “they’re disgusting!” about other housemates when they even so happen to say Estelle’s name.
People need to reassess their own lives, because I guarantee that what people are complaining the other housemates do, they do themselves in their own lives. It’s natural, it’s honest and Estelle is a big child.
Sorry, but we will have to agree to disagree. We can only go by what we’ve seen on tv and I’ve never seen Estelle talk about people to the extent that Ben, Michael, Stacey and Zoe has.
You can be honest without being nasty by Stacey saying things like “I wouldn’t give her the gratification of possibly winning”.
Michael has said, “even the thought of talking to Estelle makes my skin crawl”
Zoe has said “I hope one of these idiots ( in the loser group ) go before I do”
She’s also destroyed Estelle’s horse in a jealous rage, woe betide anyone destroying her “pumba toy ”
The housemates should think about how they have victimized one person and change their tune ( Michael certainly has ) he miraculously likes Estelle now after 2 months of constantly nominating her every time, its an obvious ploy for the viewer vote.
There are two groups in this world, “the cool group” and “the loser group” and It looks like I’m in one and you’re in another and we see things differently Hayden.
You are the first person I’ve seen, when talking to Big Brother, who is cool with multiple opinions, so kudos to you my friend. 🙂
It is true that Estelle has not spoken about others as much as those other housemates have, but this still makes me question what Estelle actually brings to the show. Since she does not discuss other housemates, I’d like to know what she actually does talk about.
Stacey and Zoe definitely don’t like Estelle, and this is because she clearly grates on those housemates. I don’t see how an advocate for Estelle, would change over a week to dislike her, and want her to be evicted so badly. Sam and Layla have also been advocates for Estelle over the past few weeks, and they’ve changed and now dislike her – Layla’s been in the diary room this week saying that she totally understands Estelle and likes her – it’s changed once again because she has spent so much time with Sam and Layla.
Zoe didn’t destroy Estelle’s toy horse… it’s Big Brother’s. It’s clear she doesn’t like Estelle anymore. Zoe doesn’t seem to be the kind of person who would want to get angry about another person, but a once-advocate for Estelle getting mad and hoping she’d be gone, there’s got to be a reason.
The other housemates haven’t victimised Estelle. She has had the same opportunity to talk about others as they have about her. They haven’t bullied her, they haven’t given her hell. They’ve tried to deal with problems in the past, and she just cries at the drop of a hat – they’ve ditched the idea of talking about the problems to Estelle because she turns it back on them, saying they’re the ones with the problem. Estelle has played the ‘woe is me’, sympathy card very well. Even though she admitted that she’s not there to make friends and is there for the money, she’s used the sympathy to her advantage. If she was victimised, we’d certainly hear about it because she would be a wreck, going to Big Brother and the whole house would be talked to about it, and it’s not something that they wouldn’t show as it is a big thing for the audience.
Estelle isn’t the most funny, interesting nor entertaining however it’s bluntly obvious she is bullied I don’t understand why and how these house ‘mates’ can be so cruel to someone… I have been in her position before and it’s so hard and emotional suffering through bullying..these people day in day out say mean and hurtful things about her to one another I feel so bad for her and and obviously people can see that too and will support her hence her support 7 times!!
Ben, Zoe, Stacey & Michael are under the impression they are above the rest they constantly talk about topic 1=Estelle and topic 2 winning, who’s playing the game blah blah blah… EVERYONE is watching and listening you idiots… she will win because she’s the victim.. had you all concentrated on being kind and fun and not made her your obsession maybe people would save you. Too bad for Ben, Michael and Zoe it’s up to the public now so you cant keep saving one another by throwing your every vote towards Estelle… YOU’VE LOST BULLIES… happy life without your 250K!!
Natalia, thanks for your thoughts, couldn’t agree more. I think its obvious after secrets were reavealed last night as to who was doing the bitching and who wasn’t.
Zoe was so nasty in her speech at the beginning of the show and Ben was just childish!
Dear Zoe,
You’re not allowed to use the diary room for your feelings anymore because apparently you’re nasty so you should just stop talking and sensitive people don’t like it.
Do you guys not see that Estelle is clearly grating on them?
She hasn’t been bullied. She has acted in a way that has caused housemates to talk about how they feel about her. She caused the talking about her, by herself. Nothing has been cruel. Cruel is speaking to her maliciously, that has not happened. She has cried when housemates want to work things out, cried instantly due to the fact that someone doesn’t like what she does.
Nobody is actually considering that Estelle could have been in the wrong. Yes, housemates have talked about her, but has she tried to get involved by changing her behaviours? They’ve all tried to change their behaviours when interacting with Estelle, but she’s never changed her behaviours, so simply housemates have decided to give up trying to get along with her any further than the regular pleasantries.
She also entered the house saying that she was not there to make friends, and was only there for the money. So really, why is she, and why are her fans worried if all she wants is the money and she doesn’t care about being friends with anyone – yet she’s sooked in the diary room about people not liking her. She’s had her walls up from the beginning, and then sooked about people not liking her. She’s never been real in the house, she’s never actually revealed who she is, she’s just sat around, or pretended as if she was riding a horse and said “I never bitch about people, I won’t stoop to that level”.
When I’ve watched the show, I’ve never picked up a positive vibe from Estelle, because she’s always moping around, and just saying everything she would never say or do because she’s not that ‘low’. I’ve not felt negative vibes from other housemates, other than Angie.
Those ‘low’ comments are clearly targeted to be offensive to other housemates by saying that they’re all low for speaking that way. The others have never called her anything to her face. They’ve left the talking to when they’re not with her so they clearly don’t upset her. Remember: Estelle is not privy to everything we get to see, she can’t see what is going on in other rooms.
Is the problem that they talk about Estelle, like normal people, or the fact that they don’t like Estelle?
Because both are pretty normal.
