The editors must be trying to make it as boring as possible now... Where was all of the early morning stuff? I'm getting sick of seeing Lisa sitting on her own... We've got the f'n point now guys.

I wanted to see more of Nush and Scott getting cosy on the sofa - there must have been a good 3-4 minutes of the programme taken up with Lisa sat on her own.

They could have actually shown some of Scott last night, who was getting very pissed off with Ray... It was the most animated I'd ever seen him.

I feel sorry for the guy. When he shows any side to his personality, it still doesn't get shown.

And there will be lots more of that if Lisa stays; Ray said he couldn't see the other housemates' views on Lisa changing, so if you don't want to look at her sitting alone on the sofas you had better vote her out now !!

I'm just waiting for the edit team to get to work with the sound team and mix "All by myself" over the top of those lonely moments

Nothing was stopping her from joining the others in the garden, especially after cooking them a meal ( how does cooking pasta take 4.5 hrs btw?) She seems to think that all the effort should come from them. Shes isolating herself

Agreed.There seemed to be numerous shots of Lisa staring gloomily into space (on her own of course)

we heard Ray explaining that he'd be giving out chores - then saw none of them - Scott cleaning mirrors (which all of course have a camera behind them) surely could have given a few good shots? Even a speeded up sequence of the three of them doing chores might have added light relief. But no.
All that remorse from Ray about bitching - which we've seen virtually nothing of. And they missed a very obvious close up at the end - monkey on Lisa's bed - but no, a long shot which said nothing. Come on team get with it.

Lisa had better get her ar*e into gear if she wants to socially integrate with the fellow HMs. They are going to be very guarded now though...

She was the master facilitator in this self-fulfilling prophecy...

I know most of you teens find Ray fit but......he scares me, when his mood changes suddenly!
Am I just that small percentage that thinks this or am I not alone?!

Maybe she doesn't feel welcome (with good cause since they really do hate her).......All the effort doesn't have to come from just her and most of them really don't want to put any effort in at all............

The editing really mystified me tonight. There has been this huge build-up of Scott and Nush flirting with each other and I expected the show to end with the cuddling on the sofa. But instead we were treated to many boring shots of Lisa on her own. Does the editor go to bed at twelve as they have to get up for school in the morning? They are determined to kill off any life that this show had. I find it baffling that the most talked about thing from yesterday is not shown at all but we are treated to Cameron sleeping all the time or contemplating his navel. Why show the little bits of flirting if you are not going to show the main event? God knows what they are going to show on tomorrows highlights aside from the nominations announcement.

Anyone reading this mornings tabloids about Scott and Nush would be wondering if they are watching the same show thanks to Channel 4`s horrendous editing.

they didn't use the Nush and Scott flirting because Lisa staring into space and Cameron scratching his arse was a lot less dull.

Personnal, and perhaps naively I think its very telling that C4 show lots of Lisa on her own. Tey have to make a 25 min programme about 24 hours in the house and what's the most interesting thing happening?

That's right... Lisa on her own is more of highlight than the rest of the group put together.

I hardly watch E4 this year, all the housemates do is sit around (the excitement peaks when they move to the garden, or ooh the bedroom!:yawn: ) in silence, occassionally talking about that day's meal. Who knows maybe Steph will do some cleaning - I almost wet myself with excitement!

Totally agree with you - I think he's borderline psychotic; a very scary person. Don't know why Graham Norton is always suggesting that Cameron has probably got a cellar full of corpses - Ray looks like a much more likely candidate for that kind of thing...

It suits their agenda this week .........they are going to play the "lisa " card up to the hilt to try to glean the sympathy vote to keep her in ......and they've now turned the knife on Cameron .he's served his purpose....so we'll get lots of shots of him in the diary room this week.You only have to read Day 47 on the official site to see how this weeks going to pan out ....

Makes you wonder if they sit there and say "come on Bob...lets see if we can turn the whole thing around this week just for a laugh"

You hit the nail full square on the head there spearish. I think crafty Lisa is playing to the public for sympathy. There is nothing stopping her from joining the others or following the others when they try and get away from her. So it's all a set up both from her or him as the case may be and the BB editors.

Ray doesn't know when to stop. Did you see the transcript of what the editors didn't think was worth including? Sympathetic editing e.g. the crying bits almost had me softening slightly - after all he's the least able to hide behind a mask, which is always good - but he's just so aggressive I really couldn't stand to be locked up in there with him.

Hmmm....just had a loook at the transcript - soooooooo glad I didn't get to watch that..

I just can't understand why Ray hasn't been nominated more often

I've stuck my neck out and shown open support for Ray now that Fed/Jon etc have gone ...but as of yet, I'm in a minority.

I won't foretell as to what is the appeal, but when I eventually do... Cor! Will I let rip!

Incidentally and at times unluckily, I'm no longer a teenie but I think if I was I'd still choose Ray over and above remaining HMs. Draw your own conclusion.

Lisa's admittance has added a transitory bit of fun to the game for me and as such I always welcome the addition of a new HM. I'd never, in a million years want her to win though. Joking aside...

Oh and if I've been swayed by biased editing for Ray then please do me a favour and keep it to yourself.

I won't listen!

Anyway, I alike many, am always open to a change of heart. Time will tell and I'll see if I stick with this one. Somehow, I think I will...
