It’s been a wild ride for Terrence! His journey into the BB House began with a motorized cart ride to the stage but his TV trip hit the accelerator pedal and shifted gear into something much faster and far more furious.

Terrence first met Housemate Terri and when the Nan laid eyes on the Dad, she couldn’t hold back the giggles. “Guess what my name is? Terrence!” Terri could hardly believe her ears (or her eyes): “Oh my God, they’re going to die,” she laughed.

And they almost did. It wasn’t long before this Papa revealed to his baby bears that he had a knack for comedy. Cracking jokes and telling stories, he shared with HMs how he admired ‘The Secret,’ didn’t mind meditation and had a deep love and respect for his sons.

Terrence didn’t take long to reveal his true colours and once he’d shared those shades, he shared a little bit more! Stripping down in the shower, Terrence caused a few eyes to pop and jaws to drop. He didn’t mind showing off his bare bod, even christening his first spa visit with a hand-crafted g-banger!

Always the motivator, Terrence took a shining to crafting some extracurricular activities for the HMs – barbershop quartets, makeshift golf courses and poetry readings all featured heavily.

Tezza also loved a good task. Sinking his teeth into the ‘Ignore The Obvious’ challenge (and failing miserably), playing the part of the barber in the ‘BB Salon’ and creating rhymes to help the HMs memorise numbers in the trainspotting task, Terrence took every challenge seriously. 

A talker, a father, a life coach, Terrence was the first to hand out advice. He tried to show Terri the way of the positive personality and was not one to shy away from a D&M. He took some of the younger HMs under his protective wing: supporting Travis and admitting to finding Bianca fascinating.

He had tried to warm to Brigitte, but the blonde bombshell wasn’t having a bar of his jokes. Neither was Brigitte’s flirting partner Cherry. In fact the Sexy Surfer had no problem telling the Soapbox Dad precisely what his beef was:  “No more party crackers. Terrence, I think we need to stop these little jokes,” Cherry put his foot down. “We need the long funny ones but not the party cracker ones. They’re kinda repetitive and boring.”

It may have been a tough crowd but Terrence was one tough cookie and didn’t even break under Nobbi’s decision to speak nothing but nonsense to the 51 year old. “I am setting a personal task,” Nobbi declared – announcing that whenever Terrence spoke, he would simply speak rubbish in return.

“Sugar canes on the toad,” Nobbi let loose at Terrence. “Here we go. Jump. Jump. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Skipping rope. Tooth on the hair. Tooth on the hair. Yeah? Eyeballs: look that way, look left, look up, look down. What’s gonna happen? I don’t know.” Baffled but in good spirits Terrence replied: “I don’t know? Earwax could be a problem.”

Terrence needed all the good spirit he could muster this week as Nobbi banished him and Terri to the Kombi as part of his Housemate Hand Grenade. The pair were dubbed the Grey Nomads and kicked to the Backyard. But ever the optimist, Terrence took the punishment on the chin.

But neither his good spirits or his optimism could save Tezza from the Eviction knife, feeling its cold surface slice his connection with the House tonight. While the Housemates may not miss his trademark brand of humour, whenever anyone cracks a joke – the image of Terrence is sure to not be that far away.

See how the other Housemates are faring with Terrence's departure.
