    From the excellent Grace Dent at http://www.radiotimes.com/content/features/bigbrother/week9/01/


    Nikki hasn't helped herself by wasting the week ranting in a delusional manner about Pete. Or sitting by the topiary with Jayne bitching and chuntering about the other housemates surreptitiously, through very small lips, a bit like the film Dangerous Liaisons if it was set in a B&Q garden centre in Slough.

    "Pete understands me! We have a connection!" Nikki has claimed all week long. The honest truth is that Nikki would not look twice at Pete in the outside world, and will not be troubling him again from the second he leaves. Nikki is a self-confessed materialistic footballer's wife wannabe who lurks with the dregs of F-list glitterati in London W1. Meanwhile, Pete is so totally Brighton it hurts, in his tie-dye trousers and BO-ridden singlets, with his performance-art background and his half-baked hippy ideals.

    When all this insanity is over, Pete will toddle off back to the South East and set up squat with some Rosie and Jim looky-likey called Snapdragon, who supplements her income support by turning wine bottles into lampshades and painting hands with henna on Hove seafront. Of course, I may be wrong. Maybe Pete really was calling out Nikki's name in his sleep like Jayne claimed. Maybe it's true love.

    Davina announces Nikki is being evicted from the Big Brother 7. Nikki cries and shakes and begins to go into one of her trademark demented tantrums. Davina eventually comes up the stairs and drags Nikki out as she screams, "I've lost my earring! My earring! I've lost it!" "No, come on," says Davina firmly, wrenching Nikki out, her knees buckling under her perilously slim frame. Nikki's arms whirr, she's sobbing, laughing and screaming all at the same time.

    Davina shows Nikki a compilation of her tantrums. Edited together they feel far more unsettling to me than amusing. "Personally, I found you hilarious!" chortles Davina, "And this is the tantrum I liked the most!" They run some footage of Nikki on the day the housemates were forced to swear allegiance to Susie. Nikki is growling and screaming and flailing about. She's punching pillows, spitting and swearing.

    "Ha! Ha! Ha!" howls Davina, "You're so funny! Hasn't she been funny, everyone?!" "I'm surprised some doctors didn't meet me with a wheelchair and cart me off," says Nikki, looking at the screen. "I know!" howls Davina, "Ha! Ha! Ha! Your tantrums were great! Very entertaining!" "Did my mum campaign to get me brought out?" asks Nikki, seriously. "Oh, I don't know about that!" flusters Davina, "But you were a great housemate! Really, really funny! Thank you! Ha! Ha!"

    Its amazing. Big Brother has been on for 6 years now. I remember a documentary on Channel 4 about the Dutch original version, around 1999 or so, and it looked like the most interesting, fascinating thing on tv.

    The UK version arrived. I watched two episodes and realised it was utter cock, and neevr watched again.

    Despite this, every single year due to media coverage I ended up knowing the names and faces of every single housemate without actually watching the poxy thing. But this year, I thankfully for some reason got no exposure, i couldnt give you the names of 3 peoplewho were on it. Any other normal folk feel this this year/

    so true. it amazes me how someone like her can be so popular. if she wasnt famous most people would want her dead

    I watched about 10 minutes of it. Absolute trash. The girl is a muppet. She was so rude to the person who ran the hotel she was staying in. Calling it a hovel and saying it was minus 10 stars.
    I've have put her in a tent, the girl needs a slap.

    Probably the worst interview i have ever seen in my life, i had to leave the room it was so cringingly bad, she was a total muppet, whether it was an act or not, she did herself no favours.

    There was no point in asking him questions, it looked like he could of stood up and ran out of the studio at any minute, know he has teretz but it was hard to watch(he must of been nervous)

    Wasnt as bad as the interview with the pheado on the Late Late, Jimmy Carr saved it at the end.

    Back to J.Ross, terrible interviewees. So frustrating as they were wasting valuble minutes of Ricky Grevais time!!!
