It does with me! The way they all stress out about looking their best when most of them are not up for eviction so therefore the camera is only on them for a few minutes at the most on eviction nights!

What a waste of water too! No wonder we keep on getting droughts with the amount of washes they have in a day in the BB house!

    No, I like to see them all dressed up, and when we had live feed I loved to watch them all getting ready for the show......

    It was nice to see Ashleigh, who usually went round the house looking drab and dismal, looking really quite nice on eviction nights......

    The last real drought i remember was 1976 and we had standpipes in the road, BB wasn't around then, phew! What are all the other droughts you have mentioned?:confused:

    It's part of BB tradition. Housemates have always dressed up for eviction nights, when they have known about them. When they are caught out by surprise evictions they are always upset that they have not been able to dress up. Eviction nights are an event for them whether they are up or not.

    What I don't get is why they all worry about their hair and stuff on the way into the DR as if that is the only place there could possibly be a camera.

    I think it's quite courteous of them to get dressed up too. Better than sitting there in their sweatpants or pyjamas waiting to get the eviction over with to carry on with their day or go to bed. It would come across like they don't give a toss.

    We had a house pipe ban for most of the country for a number of months this year.

    I'm not sure it always has been. I started watching from BB 3 and I don't remember them doing it so much in BB 3 and especially 4, not sure on 5 either.

    Exactly.

    They don't have alot to do in there, I should think they welcome an opportunity to get dressed up then have a party hopefully

    Im sure there are viewers who ONLY switch to Ch5 eviction nights only, (crazy but true) maybe this is the reason HMs dress up, because they expect higher viewer ratings

    I'm thankful for it. In Ashleigh's case, it was the only time she made an effort.

    I've watched a lot of evictions from BB2 onwards and a lot of live feed and it's definitely a ritual to get dressed up for evictions.

    Exactly.

    I presume you only bathe once a week or something?

    Nope but in every BB, some of the housemates, Scott in the last one seem to have 3 or 4 washes a day, 2 of them in the bath to make the time pass.

    I don't remember most of the guys in BB 3- 5 getting all stressed out and dressed up on eviction nights unless they where up themselves.

    At least they shared...

    On another note i doubt the big brother house could be responsible for emptying a reservoir for that area

    Exactly.

    It hasn't always been. Definitely in BB1 they didn't even get dressed up much for their own eviction night. They would wait to hear who was evicted and that person would go and get changed. There was obviously a bigger time gap then.

    In BB2 I can remember Helen freaking out because she hadn't done her hair prior to a surprise eviction. On the other hand, I can remember BB4 Nush getting her hair straightened for her eviction after the announcement by Davina.

    It doesn't really annoy me, but it does seem a bit pointless. I suppose since they never go out they treat it like a special occassion.

    Thats right! That used to happen in BB 3 a lot as well as they where given about an hour or more before they had to leave the house and then the evictee got ready if not pack their suitcase as well!

    Nooo, but the point is in most of the recent BB's the hse mates do seem to use a disproportionate amount of water through their numerous washing, all getting ready when their not up and I don't think its right.

    I remember the twins (samanda) used to take numerous and quite long showers in the series they where in. The hse mates since BB 5 or the more recent ones do not seem to have any thought about how much water they use imo.

    My own MP actually wrote a piece in the local paper about how we all need to be much more aware of how much water we use but I was already aware.
