Every year it seems one of the housemates cracks like a bone china plate. If it wasn’t Vanessa Feltz going all ouija board, ouija board on us with her blackboard scribbling antics, or Les Dennis lamenting the fact that his wife of the time was allegedly banging someone else like a hammer then it was George Galloway dressed in a leotard doing robotics.

This year it seems the candidate is Leo Sayer set to have a funny little turn. The mop topped singer with young hair and an old face had been kicking up to go a bit unusual on us for a while. His stories have been long and for the most part uninteresting, his belief in his own career sadly misplaced and his attempts at humour have been missing the mark like Ray Charles shooting for the side of a barn.

Combined with the fact that he has been depriving himself of sleep to some degree, attempting to ingratiate himself into the women’s company with somewhat clumsy results. It was only a matter of time before Leo threw his toys out of the pram and in fairness its one of the only things that has made this decidedly rocky Big Brother watchable.

Last night he was storming around in a primadonna manner, demanding to speak to his agent, the producer or anyone who would listen. He claimed that Big Brother had broken the rules of the show by depriving him of fresh air and open space or any other excuse that he could think of. He bounced up and down in the diary room chair like a viciously aged six year old. Telling Big Brother the only thing they would get from him was “his dick”. Alas these attempts at unruly, rude and rock star behaviour came almost thirty years too late and also from the man. Lets not forget Leo was the housewives choice back when he was enjoying the height of his success. His attempts to plug his new pending album and single (“it will be a smash”) were nothing short of pitiful.

Elsewhere Jade and her cohorts continued to lose popularity (Jack is now the bookies favourite to go first). Not helped by the recent allegations that her new fit and toned body were the result of liposuction hasn’t helped. And as for the site of her mother in a bikini, well lets just say The Creature From The Black Lagoon is under job threat right now.

Dirk continues his quest to be the smoothest man alive in the house with his charming “Face” persona. His presence is a steady background one, the only obstacle to his charming of the some of the women is the age gap.

Ian meanwhile continues to walk around doing a somewhat tiresome suite of Michael Jackson impression while Jermaine looks like he is rapidly becoming tired of the whole experience, on the occasions when smiles it looks like his face is about to crack.

Carole meanwhile seems to think that this television lark might not be such a bad idea after all, one suspects that she fancies herself in front of the camera if her appearance on this show is anything to go by…a word though, luv…don’t flatter yourself.

As for the task itself, the contestants managed to pull a win out of the bag that in my mind was slightly dodgy. With the show haemorrhaging viewers like an open wound and the cast in revolt I suspect that Big Brother is for the first time placating its contestants.

You may have noticed that I haven’t mentioned Jo and Shilpa, well in the case of the latter she simply does nothing of interest and in the case of the former her only amusing attribute is looking like a young Les Dawson in a blonde wig.

Lets see if things get any better.
