Watch the Video of Week 5: A Look Back!

With Nathan and David now distant memories, Housemates were plunged straight into a new week and a new task! Woken up in the wee hours of Monday morning, Housemates were dismayed to discover that they were in the doghouse with Big Brother. Literally.

In individual kennels, Housemates competed against each other in an endurance challenge that required both patience and persistence. Each held out for as long as they could in an effort to be rewarded by a “truly unique experience, one which has never before been offered as a reward on Big Brother … with effects that reach well beyond the boundaries of this House.”

Going without food, without water, without toilet (although HMs did improvise over the garden drain), the HMs battled it out but ultimately Alice emerged as the winner! Awarded the head trainer of a Seeing Eye Dog, Alice was given the high honour of naming the pup for life. Eventually she settled on the name ‘Ollie.’

But Alice and Ollie weren’t the only ones to be experience a bit of puppy love - Rory offered to give Bianca an orgasm. Not really turned on the up-front approach, Bianca revealed to Nobbi that she had her eye on someone a little less experienced: Ben! The Italian Princess suggested to the Head Boy that he needed to “come hug me one night and just f**k with his brain for a while.” Ben, in true awkward fashion, commented on the Kombi’s interior as a response.

Nobbi continued to provide counsel to the Housemates but lost all cred when he gave Travis a haircut that definitely raised some eyebrows. Perhaps that’s the reason why Housemates sought solace with Ollie, taking time out to talk to the dog about their respective problems.

Even self-professed dog-hater Dixie managed to find it in her heart to talk with Ollie. Admittedly, however, it was Terri whose conversation Ollie was most interested in and the pair bonded over being the odd ones out in the House: “You’re lucky you don’t live here. Living here’s pretty rough sometimes.”

Rough? Yes! But things were about to get a whole lot rougher as an off-the-cuff comment from Ben at the Family Dinner had tempers flared and backs arched. Telling his new family that he would never talk to someone like Rory in the outside world, Dix was the first person to attack the Head Boy calling him “arrogant.” Ben argued his way out of the situation but he managed to lose some respect in the process and had to work over-time for the rest of the week to regain the boys’ confidence.

Renee was missing Nathan a lot and spent most of the week in mourning. She tried to rekindle past friendships – bonds that she’d severed in the past week by spending an abundance of time with The Physio. Friday night managed to her spirits as she found the strength inside herself to take out Friday Night Live.

The ‘Day At The Races’ FNL theme was followed by a debaucherous after party where the Housemates got their pash on in a major way. Tongues collided with breasts, which collided with thighs, as the heat in the spa was well and truly turned up. The monster pash mash dissolved into a hickey-filled frenzy as the gamest Housemates received racy love tattoos!

The day after the celebrations, Housemates were told that they had passed this week’s task and as a result Ollie would be sticking around …

… But Dixie wasn’t – voted out on Sunday by her fellow Housemates.

As Dixie disappeared however, three new people arrived! Intruders Rhianna, Cherry and Terrence streaked into the House to stir things up - but they didn’t need to try very hard as that night Renee and Alice confronted Bianca about her breast size, resulting in a brilliant display of bare-faced feisty fireworks.

The blow-up in the Backyard also featured a confrontation between Terri and Nobbi – with the Grandma claiming that the Kombi Man had misrepresented her in front of Terrence and was being quite the “maniac.”

Rhianna, Cherry and Terrence looked around a little puzzled, wondering just what sort of House they had walked into!
