Strongest Housemate = Helen
She won a luxury dinner in the pod and she could choose 1 person to join her. No, she didn't choose Ash! She chose Mark!

Face-to-Face Nominations!

Mark nominates Pav and Chris
Helen nominates Pav and Christopher
Chris nominates Pav and Mark
Ash nominates Christopher and Pav
Winston nominates Christopher and Pav
Pav nominates Winston and Mark
Christopher nominates Winston and Pav
Ashleigh nominates Pav and Christopher

Pav (7), Christopher (4), Winston (2) and Mark (2) are nominated and will face the public vote.

The Power of Money
The housemates have the opportunity to raise the winning £100,000 by £25,000. They all decide that whoever wins the show, they will divide up the £25,000 between all of them.

Challenge 1
The nominees must choose either Ash, Ashleigh or Chris to join them in being nominated.There are 3 envelopes, and Ash, Ashleigh and Chris are to each choose one. The envelopes will be either £1,000,  £5,000 or £10,000. Whoever the current nominees choose, the amount in their envelope will be added to the prize fund.

They choose Chris. Inside Chris's envelope is £10,000! To say they were excited would be an understatement! They freaked out and did a group happy dance.

Challege 2
For £6,000, Chris is faced with a dilemma. He will get to see his best friend. The £6,000 will start to count down and the longer he's in there with him, the more money will be reduced. He chose to do it, but make it really quick. His friend gave him a quick preview of what's going on the outside, and some tips for continuing on. £4,802 was left of the £6,000.

Christopher is given the same option to see his friend. He chooses not to, but then Big Brother said it would only be £20 per second. So, he chooses to do it very quickly. He gives him a message from his mom. After re-entering the DR, he totally freaked out. £3,152 was left.

Mark is offered the chance to see his grandma and his cousin. His grandma tells him to stop swearing in the house because it's upsetting her. She's never heard him swear before. He was in no hurry to leave, and the money ran out, so he was forced to leave.

The group did not earn any money for the prize.

Challenge 3
Drink Big Brother's special brew. They will have the opportunity to add up to £2,000.

Mark puked...really, really puked a lot before even drinking anything, just by the smell.

Chris, Pav, Ashleigh and Mark were up first. It did not go well. Everyone was dry heaving and trying to plug their noses. Then was Ash, Helen, Christopher and Winston. They also didn't do well.

Christopher went in alone when no one else could and began to drain the funnel. He was so determined. When the time ran out, he had gotten the brew down to the £500 mark, so that's how much will be added to their prize.

Guessing Quotes
They each have to guess which housemate said what. By doing so, they place housemates faces in that order on a safe in order to correctly guess the combination to the safe. They were correct, and the safe opened to reveal that they earned £5,000 to add to their prize. This brings their total to £15,500.

The Ultimate Dilemma "take it or leave it"
The housemates (except Ashleigh) are each told that the public has chosen them only to have dilemma. They are told they can take the money for themselves...but this is all a lie! Ashleigh will decide later what will happen.

Mark, Chris and Ash choose to TAKE the money, while Pav, Helen, Christopher, and Winston choose to LEAVE the money in the pot because it wouldn't be fair to take money that wasn't theirs...especially since they made a pact to split the money.

Ashleigh must choose who decided to take the money. She is told that the number was 3. If she is correct, she will get them to the full £25,000. The group knows she won't think Chris or Mark would do it. Ash said he did it because he knew he would split it with the group. Mark thought the same thing because he didn't know if all the others would honor the pact. Chris wanted to make a point with why he did it...still not exactly sure what that point was.

She thinks Pav, Ash and Chris were the 3. She was so close! Big Brother informs her that she got 2 of the 3 right and therefore has LOST the £15,500 that was built up.

...and then all HELL broke loose! No need to explain why...I think you can figure it out...

Surprise Double Eviction
The first person to be voted out is Mark! Who saw that one coming? Not me! I would have expected Pav to be the next to go, leaving only the original housemates. Sad to see him go! The crowd isn't, however...lots of boos. It seems that maybe his treatment of Christopher in the last couple weeks has hurt him in the public's eyes. Mark said he felt like he was going this week, and he felt like it was his time to go.

The second person to be voted out is Winston! OMG! I'm shocked! Again I thought it would be Pav. I'm sad to see Winston go! He's been a great player to watch this season. I really thought he would make it to the final. He didn't really do anything to make the public not like him. He always got a lot of cheers, and got a lot of cheers on his departure. So...why did he not get the votes to stay?
