Its been quite the week in the Big Brother, as the show haemorrhages viewers almost as quickly as it loses contestant. The number of celebrities jumping ship now numbers three with Leo Sayer being the latest contestant to quit the show. Perhaps a little voice inside his head was telling him just how ridiculous he was starting to appear. His belief that he is still the greatest living entertainer is one that only he seems to share and his attempts at being unruly and disruptive were quite frankly nothing short of amusing.

Essentially folks, Leo was acting like a first class wanker and an early bath it would seem was the only way to salvage his previously squeaky clean image. Wednesday saw Jackyie leaving the house, amidst much wailing and gnashing of teeth from some of the other housemates. God alone knows why, if reality television sees fit to give this woman a career following the end of this show (or on the strength of her miscreant daughter) then surely this will be the plumbing of the lowest depths in the name of entertainment (yeah, we know…she’d be cheap and potentially controversial but all the same…).

When it came down to a legitimate eviction and trust me I was wondering if there would be any housemates left to get that far the person most who got the boot was Carole Mallone. Her presence in the house seemed on par with her status as a journalist. Quite obviously using this new found televisual status as potential fodder for her press column and potentially a “chat show” style TV. The mileage may or may not be there for the future but in terms of losing her from the house she will prove to be no great loss.

Jade’s boyfriend Jack finally did something rather than be an appendage for Jade which is ironic because when he actually did something it was with his appendage. Being only 19, the nights without sex were obviously proving difficult for him as evidenced by the fact that he ejaculated all over Jade’s leg when they were in the midst of a romantic clinch.

Moment killer. On live television.

The rest of the contestants were more or less on a level playing field. Dirk has been flirting with Shilpa, while Shilpa has been moaning and getting on the nerves of Danielle while Danielle has done little of note. Cleo has been of some entertainment value although her tendency to get a bit “luvvy” have proven tiresome. Jo and H meanwhile have proven to be as interesting as the wallpaper.

So far the problem with the show has been the emphasis on Jade and her family. There are however hints that Donny might be coming back into the house however how much truth there is in this rumour is a matter of some debate. Not to mention the fact that it makes a mockery of the rules and the concepts of the show.

However, at this point it has to be said the show does need a kick up the arse. Lets hope something happens soon.
