Stu is shocked as Maysoon breaks the news and Sara gives her big hug before she leaves

BBC News reports:

Big Brother's model contestant Maysoon Shaladi has walked out of the house just four weeks after joining the show.

After a day of complaining that she did not feel comfortable on the show and might leave, the 28-year-old confirmed that she wanted to quit.

Maysoon had been up for eviction on Friday against eight other housemates. Viewers who have already voted for her will be able to get a full refund.

Darnell, Rex, Mohamed, Rachel, Stuart, Maysoon and Kat have been put up for eviction for discussing nominations.

The naughty rule-breakers will join eviction nominees Dale and Luke as they face the public vote this Friday.

Trainee P.E. teacher Dale and geeky student Luke both received the most nominations from their fellow housemates, with six and five votes respectively.

I've been caught up for a while with various goings-on, but I have been keeping an eye on the BB house - just not had time to write about it!

I was really gutted Bex got evicted last Friday - I really liked the whole relationship that was developing between her and Luke - bless!

They were the funniest two people in the house - Rebecca's best bits were the funniest I have ever seen - check them out!

BBC reports:

The Big Brother house was evacuated on Sunday morning after a security threat, Channel 4 has confirmed.

A man contacted the show's base at Elstree Studios, Hertfordshire, claiming a bomb was nearby.

Programme makers cut the live feed and the 15 contestants were woken at 0240 BST and moved to a safe location.

Ladies night in the BB house

Belinda, Sarah and Maysoon

Jen got chucked out and in went three new girlies.

Sara, 27, an executive PA for the music channel MTV, has become the first Australian to enter the British Big Brother house.

Sara, who moved to London five years ago, said she is the loudest person in the office and the reality programme needed an Australian to mix up the "reserved and shy Brits".

Bye Bye Jen!

Jen's out!

The BB house waved farewell to Jennifer tonight - the third girl to be evicted.

Jennifer Clark, 22, became the third contestant to be voted off the show, she received 89.7 per cent of the total votes cast by the public.

She had been up against Rex Newmark in this week's vote.

Three new female contestants will enter the Big Brother house later, according to a spokeswoman for Channel 4's show.

The incoming candidates will be "a sexy executive PA, a theatre director in her 40s and a model who has appeared in a Lynx advert".

The trio will be unveiled in a special programme after either Jennifer or Rex is voted out.

I was really annoyed with the way Mario treated Kat on last night's programme.

I think Kat is genuine with her emothions and she really can't stand negativity and conflict, maybe due to her religion as well.

But the way Mario completely disrespected her was out of order.
