TK'S jersey seems to have taken on a life of its own.
The old-fashioned brown monstrosity seems to be his staple attire nowadays and the viewers are not down with his fuddy-duddy fashion sense.
Reminds me of Ofunneka in season 2, she had a red 'ouma' jersey that went along with her wherever she went.
At the time it prompted this message from a viewer to the TV SMS strip: "If you don't want to evict Ofunneka, please evict the jersey!" Yesterday morning, I was quite surprised to see TK looking rather handsome in a pair of straight-legged trousers and a lovely pale-blue top, but alas - seems he doesn't want to be even the least bit attractive, within 10 minutes he had changed back into his 'uniform' - camouflage shorts and that bloody brown jersey.
And, does he ever stop eating? It seems like every time I switch to Channel 198, he's chowing down on something or other.
You can really tell a lot about a person by the way that they eat.
I like TK, I really do, but that brother has absolutely no concept of etiquette! Stuffing his face as though there were an imminent famine.
After failing last week's task, I wonder how he, particularly, will manage the food deprivation this week.
Biggie, rather unfairly - I think, failed the housemates' Olympic efforts.
After days of performing the most absurd and taxing games - their final task presentation on Thursday night was really rousing, funny and even quite emotional! After the 'Olympic closing ceremony', the housemates were in high spirits, anticipating all the praise Biggie was going to heap on them.
It was not to be.
Citing anti-Olympic behaviour, cheating, bickering, unhealthy living and lack of unity during the week - he harshly delivered his verdict.
They had failed.
Shame.
After waging 100 per cent on passing this task, the housemates will have no BBs with which to buy supplies for the week.
I can only wait in anticipation to see how they will react.
No meat, no cigarettes and the big one - no alcohol.
Not that Biggie has been giving them much of that anyway.
On Saturday evening, he surprised the housemates with pizza and a bottle of vodka.
One bottle of vodka?! Now even if all the housemates were just social 'one-drink only' kinda people, one bottle wouldn't be nearly enough for 12 people.
It's actually quite boring and unfair on them.
Besides bed hopping and snogging under the covers, drinking is like their only form of stress relief, and Biggie gives them one bottle.
Not fair Biggie, and not very entertaining either.
It has the housemates wondering if Biggie is going through some financial problems.
MUNYA AND LU After the first round of nominations (even though they are fake, but the housemates don't know that) the niceties have truly ended and the game started for real.
The pressure is starting to get to them, with everyone wondering if HOH Tawana switched either Morris or Thami with one of them.
Lucille seems pretty insecure about it.
Seems Tawana may have her eye on Munya and it could be that Lulu's worried that Tawana may have put her up for possible eviction in a plot to get her out of the way get her talons into sweetie-pie Munya.
Things between Lulu and Munya are really quite sweet to watch.
They are both so shy and cautious with one another, yet you can clearly see they like each other.
I think they make such a sweet couple.

Munya even defended his lady love when she and Uti had a bit of a blow-up.
