Day 10: The Box task is back!
Posted by Simon at January 14, 2006 10:20 AM

Remember the box task from the last Big Brother? Well that's exactly what the celebrity housemates have woken up to this morning!

The housemates have been let out to walk around the house, despite Big Brother still not announcing the task yet, but it'd seem it'll work pretty much the same as before, with the housemate who lasts the longest (George and Maggot would seem favourites based on comments from them so far), but with a potential massive twist...

...because Jimmy Saville is due to arrive in the house sometime this afternoon - presumably after they've entered their boxes, and either whilst some are still in their box (to tempt them out) or as a final result for the last housemate. Possibly even one housemate will get to meet Jim'll Fix It and the others won't, or maybe they'll all get the chance to meet him, howz' about that then!

It's proven a bit of a farce though, because it was pretty obvious Pete wouldn't want to be in the box for more than a few minutes, and both he and Preston decided to leave at the same time - with the idea being they all left their boxes so as Rula could win.

They were both given coffee and hot croissants as a treat from Big Brother, at which point Pete went and sat on Dennis' box, trying to get him out of it, whilst winding others up and trying to organise the quick ending of the task because Pete claimed he "couldn't see the point in it".

George made his plans clear, telling them that if they were going to sit it out - to beat the machine - he'd be there all night and had no intention of leaving, whilst Rula said she'd give him a run for his month.

Eventually Faria seemed to give up to Pete's constant going-on and on about ending the task, and had a bit of a shouting match with him, followed moments later by Maggot who threw the towl in.

At which point discussion turned back to ending the task early, with almost everyone saying they want Rula to get the special treat, but none of them who were still in their boxes actually wanting to leave.

But moments later they did all get out of their boxes, making the whole task a total anti-climax compared with the non-celeb Big Brother last year where the task went on for hours and proved hugely more entertaining.

Hopefully Jimmy Saville's arrival later won't fall equally flat.
