Biggest nose-picker

I don't know what David's expecting to find up there - a Yorkshire pudding, maybe - but he can't stop rooting around in his nasal cavity like a pig after a truffle. It only adds to the impression that he's a real-life Bo Selecta character.

Along with Lisa, David must be one of the favourites to go tonight, although I don't think he's as aware of that as she is. I certainly dislike David more than I do Lisa, but in a way I'd like him to stay so we can see how he'll cope without her. And in case he finally finds what he's looking for up there…

Biggest Queen-botherer

He's a strange one, Rodrigo. Despite his sunny outlook and unconditional love for everyone, he's so obsessed with obeying authority that you feel he'd rise swiftly through the ranks in a totalitarian society.

In line with this fixation, Rodrigo's two main dreams in life are to appear on Orwellian reality show Big Brother - tick - and to meet the unelected ruler of his adopted country. Having achieved his first goal, he's determined to fulfil the second. Thus, we saw Roddy composing a heartfelt letter to Her Majesty on a chalkboard, with BB promising to post it that very afternoon.

Now, partly thanks to naughty Bea, Rodrigo really thinks there is a chance the Queen will be inviting him round for tea after he leaves the house. Perhaps she will even be in the crowd, screaming and waving a placard that reads "Rodrigo for Royal Consort!"

Hira didn't help divest Rodrigo of this belief either, shedding tears of joy as he completed the letter, and telling him "You deserve it so, so much. It just shows, dreams can come true." She's a strange one, Hira…

Best end to a week

By Thursday night, it was as if the housemates really were living in Wonderland. The arguments were over, differences, mostly, put aside and a successful task had left everyone in a good mood. With all the housemates up for eviction it almost seemed like final night and there were speeches and declarations of universal love from Siavash, Charlie and Hira.

Meanwhile, we got some enjoyable banter between Marcus and Bea (who makes much more sense as a female friend for the whiskered one than Noirin ever did) and some intriguing talk of what might have been between Bea and Siavash. Even Lisa was displaying some humility (quite possibly because she thinks she is one of those most likely to be evicted tonight).

All in all, the harmony was rather heart-warming. I give it a day…
