Get Charley Out
If Briff is correct (and he always is) then might I suggest we, all our friends, and any woodland mammals with paws able to text, follow this crowd-chant to the letter. Forgive me, but I am willing to bear more of Krusty's "phat", "largin' it" and miserable head-scratching if it means Zelda walks. Once and for all. Out of there. Not even my contrariest bone can fully maintain a "she provides entertainment" argument. Sorry.
In other news, Jordan and Peter Andre have named their new child Princess Tiaamii. I had to share that as well. Anyway, Charley will probably try to muscle in on the christening.


So far I've been Contrarious Prime and done the 'keep them in, they're entertaining' thing.
It hasn't worked: we've lost Seany the Hucknall Hobbit and the Scabs of Shabs. Will I vote to keep Charley? I'd rather we cut off the human skin tag AKA Tracey De Niro.
I am off to have lunch, buy a guft for baby Princes Tiami and think about Charley's fate...

Tim, either you are pulling our leg or your finger accidentally hit the 'a' and the 'i' keys twice.

Get both of them out. I don't care how they wrangle it.
Then bring in:
A good looking young man who gets off with Gerry and the single twin (ooh, the scandal).
A nice lass for Brian, he will constantly trip over himself trying to woo her.
Ziggy's dog to unleash Chanelle's little green monster.
Someone who is wiser than Carole, a better cook, and in better physical shape. (Dr. Zoidberg sans shell anyone?)
A girl who is more macho than Liam.
Sigh, if only.

I speak the truth Stephanie, no mis-spellings; something about combining both mothers' names. Pronunciation issues, perhaps.
Bondy: your wish etc... See the Daily Star (and most likely the highlights show tonight). Ziggy's dog is set to enter the house (indeed, already has) to help complete a task. Really. Call the RSPCA.

But what will we talk about if Charley goes?
Posted by: monkeychops | 24 Jul 2007 16:39:43
well what fun ... i didnt believe she would be up ... and the only thing better than her going will be new housemates coming in ... she will be green ... hurrah hurrah.

Finally.
I echo others, though, in that there is concern that Buzzin’ Trace will get the majority of the vote simply to satisfy the seemingly bottomless appetite of the British public for misery-making and human foulness. (See Eastenders.) I’m not actually going to vote, of course, but what I WILL do is go out to the ‘arcade’ (where all the oiks and plebs hang around) tomorrow afternoon and use Jedi Mind Tricks on anyone who looks like they night part with their hard-earned to keep Charley in.
In other gossip: the nauseating Jade Goody has signed up for acting lessons at the Lee Strasberg Institute, whose alumni include Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro, which seems a little strong for a walk-on part in Emmerdale.
I may have got it wrong. She might be in the canteen.

I'm voting for Zelda - quality nickname by the way Tim - at least 1000 times. This is our big chance people - lets get her out so she can join Scabby Shabs in the "deals" wilderness...

I didn't know there was a single twin. I thought they were simply 'the twins' and were incapable of performing any action without the other being present.
The wobble head must go!

Apparently it's pronounced 'Tee-ah-mee'. It sounds like a feminine hygiene product. Peter thought off it all by himself, clever boy.

Gosh Tim, that's a turn up for the books eh?
From what I have seen it's a dog of the wrinkly variety. Could this be the root of the Ziggy/Carole relationship?
Charley v Tracey is hard to call.
The whole of sarf london (apart from Dulwich Village and half an acre of Herne Hill) seem to love her and as far as I can tell they all have at least 3 mobile phones and a lack of self control.
Whereas Tracey's mates wake up every afternoon wondering where she has gone.

I thought you were joking, Tim, but I saw a teaser just now and indeed, there is some mutt being mauled by Ziggy, looking all tearful (Ziggy, not hound). I am going to protest to the RSPCA - remember the crassness of some twat who decided it would be a great idea to introduce a tiny kitten to the BB House two or so years ago? An animal is for LIFE, not ratings fodder. Free the dog. Bin Charley.

charley - out of the house obviously...but I want her out of the country...how much phone credit do I need for that ?
My strange dream is...the twins as the last two. Who will win ? Will fur fly (pink fur natch). It won't happen but, I have seen no sign of dispute since the hilarious "chick peas" "weight loss" exchange.
I am getting a sneaking fondness for Gerry. I know his mouth is all wonky, but his square up to charley endears him to me, plus his somewhat forlorn attempt to justify having an education and a brain. And I did laugh out loud when he said that only the cockroaches would survive a nuclear war, them and Carole. "Carole will be cooking for the cockroaches."
BTW - why is it that Emily got slung out without a warning, for using in an entirely street fashion the N word (don't like that word used by anyone mind), but charley can call gerry a paedo and just get a stern talking to (and she meant to insult him !)
Have I said I dislike that woman....

If it helps Princess Tiaamii should have an accent over the first a 'to make it look a bit more exotic' and two i's 'to make it look a bit different' according to Mr Andre. Good job Princess is a nice normal first name really.
Posted by: Emma | 24 Jul 2007 20:05:32
What sort of an accent Emma? Acute, grave, circonflex, cedille??? I think we should be told.
Posted by: Stephanie | 24 Jul 2007 20:56:10
Perhaps Damian remembers this as he did the great service of providing a link to Kath & Kim when "Poo" was in the house, but there's a fantastic episode of their show where Kim's pregnant and they're discussing possible baby names.
Sharon: "I really like Tayluh - TayLUH."
Kim: "I really like Tiffany - spelt T -y-ph-ph-double a-double n-triple i."
And of course, as any fule kno, she eventually called the poor child Epponnee-Rae (umlaut close italics). Just a thought, but Peter Andre is Australian - maybe this is his real inspiration?
(PS Returning to BB, which I realise is supposed to be the main focus of this blog: I just can't get excited about this eviction. I can't help feeling that Charley is just with us forever now. Like we've opened Pandora's box ...)

I think they want one of them posh accents.
Posted by: Niall | 24 Jul 2007 21:26:45
Sadly I can't find out which accent, maybe they haven't decided? Presumably it would be whichever is the least used as the rest would be 'common' accents and therefore not exotic.

Did Carole really say, while walking to the Diary Room, “I hope I don’t fart in there”?* One tiny masochistic part of me was hoping that she would lean to one side, raise one of her vast buttocks from the chair, and, grimacing horribly at the camera, blast one forth.
I’ve always like demure girls. Modest. Coquettish, even.
I’m missing a documentary on Kelvin for this!
*Punctuation cleanup needed.
