You've got to take your hat off to him. He's produced an audacious set piece every night this week.

The dance floor stealing song and dance last night, the return of the old favourite 'slut drop' routine tonight, combined with the 'stealing jacks money' larking about in the bedroom.

And for tomorrow nights show he's brought out a BB favourite of larking about with the fittings and furnishings (mattress sliding down the stairs with Chloe - looks like she's noticed what he's up to and isn't going to let Joel dominate the airtime with these set pieces anymore).

He's brought his a-game to the final week and it looks as though it's working

So in short, he's being entertaining in a rather light hearted and inoffensive way.

Going by the website and tweets he's had these moments before, though - they just haven't been aired on the highlights.

I wonder if the mattress slide will make it?

I know this is sacrilege to say but I don't find any of that entertaining.

Just dull, and dare I say, done for the benefit of the cameras?

It's great campaigning, going for the undecided voter in the final week.

Works for me, Joel FTW, I like the light hearted fun and making the most of his last few days.

I want one more Abba song before Thursday.

Chloe said he has been so funny after week 1 or 2 (the past 6 or so weeks) that he's caused her to practically piss her pants laughing….he is the funniest hm according to her and some of the others.

He doesn't give a shit if he looks cool or not. I think he still is part kid and part adult. A great blend. Him screeching in terror over the bug was hilarious.

I doubt the mattress slide will make it. Most clips aired on BBBOTS don't make it onto the highlights.
There was a gif on @BBUKLive (can't remember if this was shown on BBBOTS) of Joel and Cristian play wrestling on the bed, and unfortunately it didn't make it to the highlights

That's what I wondered. How many of these moments have ended up on BB's cutting room floor. If that is true, why on earth have they stopped us from watching the show as it should have been.

We have lost out this year methinks.....

It's not at all sacrilegious. I don't worship at the altar of Joel either. He is not in the slightes bit entertaining to me and as for his falsetto Abba butchering and slut drop..well it's downright rigt cringeworthy and I find him deeply embarrassing. Taking Jacks case was mean, plain and simple.
All his "skits" and supposed entertainment have an agenda..I cannot stand him.

I don't find it entertaining at all and the slot drops are embarassing. He is such a sly and horrible human being. He deserves an oscar for his performances all season because he has had the public fooled and will likely be winning tomorrow.

i cringe when he sings and dances but! i want him to win out of that lot

He has been like this all along so OP you are wrong.

The reason we are seeing more of it, is because there are less people left now and the producers have to actually include him in the show.

There were weeks of shows where the Joel supporters had to make do with clips off the main site to find out how he was getting on...

This year has focused too much on showmances and arguments, and not enough on interesting housemates!
