The arrival of Claire has caused mixed reactions in the house.
The attractive newcomer is a hit with the boys. In a diary room
session, Darren told Big Brother, "It's so nice to have
someone different to talk to."
For Craig, naturally, Claire is a sexual challenge. Bypassing
the traditional first steps of courtship, the gigolo went straight
for the heart, suggesting a steamy round or two beneath the
sheets. And she'd only been in the house for an hour!
But for Mel, fresh and bubbly Claire is unwelcome competition.
"Our cocoon now has a crack in it," she whispered to
Anna. "She probably knows more about us than we know about
each other."
Anna wondered how much of an advantage Claire would have over
them with her knowledge of the web site and TV shows so far.
Although Claire may know more about their personalities than
they can possibly know about hers, Claire is forbidden from
revealing what she knows. She is not allowed to mention any
knowledge she may have gleaned from outside about the politics in
the house.
If she does, she could face the same treatment as naughty Nick.
With an outsider in their midst, Anna and Mel have become
closer. Anna apologised to Mel for back-stabbing her in the first
couple of weeks. "I said some things about you spending too
much time with the boys," she confessed. "I'm really
sorry."
Mel appreciated Anna's honesty and admitted an instant bond
with Andy.
She even admitted the secret kisses she shared with Andy before
he was evicted. "I was gutted he was going, but he abused the
situation a bit," she said, and suggested it was desperation
at losing her buddy rather than genuine attraction.
"It would have been nice to kiss someone better looking
and with a bigger chest," she sniggered.
As Claire swapped stories on the sofa with Darren, Anna and Mel
continued their bedroom gossip into the night. First evictee Sada
proved a final target. "Even though Caroline and Nichola
loved her," Anna admitted, "I've never met anyone so
conceited."
