Big Brother: Eviction Night, 14 August 2009

In last night's Big Brother Freddie was shown the door by the undeserving public (undeserving now he's back in our good books) and Bea has at least a week left to feel smug about the way she has treated him. After that, she might regret ever having entered the house because it looks and sounds as though there aren't many on her side. 

Big Brother: Nominations, 11 August 2009

Freddie and Marcus have been nominated for eviction this week and Bea would be counting her lucky stars if she thought her great escape had anything to do with luck. As entertaining as Marcus has been, here's hoping Freddie survives as he has gone from hero to zero to hero again in this past two weeks and his new found distance from Bea has proven to be his saving grace.

Coronation Street: 10 Aug 2009

Poor old Junkie Joe. If his life wasn't hard enough living with David, living with Gail, and always being on the verge of bankruptcy, he's now addicted to painkillers. Cynics may say that this addiction came about extraordinarily quickly, as one minute he had a bad back and seemingly only seconds later David was extorting favours in return for the odd tablet. This should be a lesson to us all, though, that is if we live our lives according to a soap opera, and so remember to never succumb to blackmail from David and take the doctor's advice rather than smash his alarm system with a sledge hammer.
