Day 17.
- Noirin and Sree are sitting in the main room and I can feel the awkwardness all the way here in Australia. Pretty sure this is the longest Sree’s gone without talking too. Forced conversation on Sree’s part ensues. Awkward-o-meter rises.
- Halfwit is in the bathroom with Kris and Dogface, imploring Kris to apologise to Angel for accusing her of stealing cider. He insists he had a right to accuse her and did in fact apologise. Halfwit continues to beg, but with these two, there’s no question who holds the power and who will get the final word (and who will say ‘oh okay then, well that’s fine then’).
- Sree and Noirin are talking in the garden, because clearly the first 15 times they had this conversation just weren’t good enough for Sree. He really is making it worse by constantly pushing Noirin, who herself seems determined to have a grumpy day, to talk. Noirin gives Sree a nice, honest telling off. Sree laughs and doesn’t listen to what she is actually saying, as usual. They finish with a forced hug and a smile, as usual.
- Dogface apparently teases Kris by saying she’s his beard. Aww?
- Marcus is sprawled on his bed, making a present for Noirin. He doesn’t really think he has a chance, does he? Oh wait, it’s Marcus. With an ego the size of WA, of course he does. Siavash later warns Noirin of the crush Marcus seems to be developing on her. It must be so tough being beautiful. Marcus denies fancying Noirin, but look at him! He’s lying on his bed, grinning as he makes her present out of old cans.
- Sree is in the diary room talking whining about Noirin. He’s jealous that Marcus is getting more of her attention, but I’m convinced that’s only because Noirin is trying to irritate Sree. I mean, come on, it’s Marcus.
- Task time! The housemates need to learn Russian; surely an easy pass due to Angel’s whole being-Russian-thing. So long as they can remember and pronounce the phrases correctly, which is actually probably quite hard… but they pass nevertheless. Happy housemates!
- The housemates are in the bedroom, licking/ biting/ sucking/ massaging each other. Well, it is Big Brother.
