Greek tragedy for Gerry?

With no fewer than five people up for eviction from Big Brother this week, Friday's eviction race is for once more open than usual and Gerry looks well-priced at 2/1 to take the walk of shame.

Following a week of 'Self-Improvement' the housemates have inevitably been bickering more than ever but the result of another engagingly-themed few days has thrown up an interesting quandary.

They don't know it yet but those housemates who have won Guru status for coming first in the 'Body', 'Mind' and 'Soul' tasks will also have huge burden to carry for their acquired wisdom. As well as being rewarded immunity from eviction this week, they will also have to choose which of two housemates chosen by the public will leave the show.

This means that Ziggy, Tracey and Samanda must decide the fate of Kara-Louise, Carole, Jonty, Brian, Liam and Gerry. In effect Brian and Liam can be ruled out because they are too cool for school with both the hormonal teen girls voting and the Gurus. Jonty has also come across well, which leaves Kara-Louise, Carole and Gerry as the lowest-priced trio.

Moaning Carole has been involved in a number of arguments this week and was responsible for the housemates having to forfeit the week's luxury shopping budget for hiding biscuits and doing chores when banned. However, should she somehow make it into the last two it can be assumed that she will be spared as Tracey considers her her only real friend in the house and Ziggy gets on well with the mother hen figure.
