Earlier he was saying to Science that if Sam and Saskia were to go it would change the dynamics of the house and be interesting. I've just caught part of his converstaion with Makosi and he was saying about the house dynamics again.

Derek nominated Sam and Saskia this week, I think he's trying to steer Science and Makosi to join him doing the same next week.

I think you're right. He (Derek) is coming across to me as quite sly.

Derek is an experienced political campaigner. It is second nature to him to manipulate voting. He has built a career on honing such skills.

I agree I think he is a crafty bugger. Makosi and I highly doubt Science are influenced by what others say and it will probably backfire against Derek. Makosi and Kermal have already told Sam that "people are spreading poison about other people, make up your own mind. Don't let others steer you"

He's another h/m that's so far up Makosi's ar&e he can't think or see straight.

All he had to hear from Makosi is that she was of royal descent and he straight away switched into butler mode.

I never took to Derek myself, I am normally a good judge of character. He had this thing about him I couldn't get.

He always thinks he is right and that no one else can be. He also looks down his nose at people and critisices. I want him gone soon....

I agree with you, but this is where he may come undone with us, the voting public. I don't think he admits to watching other BBs, but surely he must know that the public don't like manipulators a la Nick Bateman and that if he continues at the first chance of eviction, the public will boot him out.
This, of course, is all dependent on what the producers decide to show on the highlight show, but if his manipulation continues and becomes more overt, they must show it.

I get the feeling BB have taken a more relaxed stance on this.. with each series the evictions seem to become less and less important.

I do hope so. Everyone loved Victor and his grime so why not someone who is obviously more adept at it?

I've a feeling Makosi will nominate Sam anyway (as she already knows Sam got most nominations along with her last week.) If Science goes for it Sam's gotta be a dead cert to be up for eviction unless they pull another immunity stunt.

Absolutely - much more fun that the dreadful screaming & shouting at each other.

There must be a third way....

Removing Sam/Saskia has the side effect of removing any big storyline from Anthony and Maxwell too. Nominating Mary already removed one of the major competitors if it comes off. That would make sure the people who would vote against her went too.

he is definitley doing that i wish he would stop going on about sam smirking if it was true then why didnt she nominate makosi.
Makosi has suprisingly not slagged off roberto or sam , i thought she would as she knows they got a lot of votes.
