A look back at the biggest and best bits from the last seven days of Big Brother.

Biggest cringe factor

There's no doubt, Sree definitely divides the sexes. As a woman, I think he's quite sweet and naive with the ladies; I could barely watch when he 'fessed his love to a clearly uncomfortable Noirin. Men, on the other hand, see him as a cunning, calculating player looking for any excuse to cop a feel. But women are always right, natch…

Best dietary advice

If you want to look like death warmed up, follow Dimitar Berbatov's - I mean, Angel's - top tip and starve yourself for three days, with just spaghetti water and liquid mayonnaise for sustenance. My advice: stick a picture of Angel on your fridge door and watch the pounds pile on.

And after Angel's egg-sucking shenanigans, I watched agog as Sree completed the raw breakfast platter this week by serving up uncooked bacon sandwiches to his unsuspecting housemates. Delish.

Best show of solidarity

Reluctant to take part in a three-day fast in support of Noirin, Halfwit's offer to walk round in a towel all day instead seemed a fair trade-off. Didn't it?

Best Marcus quote

This could be a regular feature of this blog, because The Hairy One comes up with so many gems. My favourites this week include "You may be able to get into the garden, but you can never get into the house" when describing Lisa's coldness (this sounded vaguely sexual to me) ; to Dogface "You got in here as a piece of meat, and so did I" (quite frankly, deluded); and "You can't beat Captain Cool-as-F***. That's me. You can't get no cooler" (though I've yet to meet a superhero who eats his scabs, Marcus).

Best double act

Rodrigo and Angel shaving their chins side by side in front of the bathroom mirror, as if it was the most natural thing in the world. Morecambe and Wise, watch out.

Biggest nomination hypocrisy

It's a choice between Dogface, who nominated Halfwit for wandering around naked all the time; Charlie, for accusing Halfwit of living in a dream world (this from the man who examined the diary room chair at length to distract himself from the task of nominating); or Angel, for saying that Siavash "doesn't bring much to the social dynamics of the group". Arrogant though he is, he's a lot more entertaining than you, dear (and before you ask, seeing you butt naked while you indulge in an early-morning dip is not my idea of fun).

Biggest no-brainer

It's Halfwit and Cairon up for eviction this week. Personally, I usually give annoying toffs a wide berth, but as Halfwit bears a striking resemblance to the lovely Derren Brown, I hope he edges it over the aggressive, potty-mouthed Cairon. Are you with me?

And what a really nice thing Halfwit did last night when he used Big Brother's "wish" to let Noirin off having to draw her daily glasses and moustache instead of changing his name back to Freddie. Halfwit to win!
